Qingyang, the name of this village, was originally related to Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu.

The first generation of the founding emperor Zhao Kuangyin and the "Chen Qiao mutiny" designated Kaifeng as the capital of song dynasty, which opened the great cause of the reunification of the whole country in the Song Dynasty. Viewed from the side, this has nothing to do with Zhao Kuangyin's talent, which is one of the indispensable cornerstones of his governance.

According to historical records, Miao Guangyi, assistant of Zhao Kuangyin Meritorious Minister, lived in Ningxian County, Gansu Province in northwest China after retirement. After Miao Guangyi abdicated, the state affairs were once chaotic. Zhao Kuangyin, thirsty for talent, decided to personally visit Miao Guangyi and let him go back to North Korea for rectification.

Zhao Kuangyin led a group of people to spy all the way in Ningzhou, looking for Miao Guangyi. One day, I came out from Ningzhou to climb the mountain and went to Beifengtou Village near the tableland. Seeing a couple hoeing, they sent guards to inquire about Miao Guangyi's whereabouts. Who knows that the working couple quarreled because of trivial matters, and neither of them paid attention to the other, just bent down to hoe the ground. The doorman greeted several times in a row, but the couple didn't even look up, let alone answer. Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin said angrily, "What a pair of stone men!" ! It is often said that the emperor is the real dragon emperor, and it is a golden mouth and jade words. Later, the couple became stone men, plowing and hoeing for nearly a thousand years, standing in the field at the head of Beifengtou village. This is of course a folklore, but this stone statue is true. Unfortunately, more than ten years ago, criminals stole this pair of stone statues, and their whereabouts are still unknown. )

Zhao Kuangyin and his party didn't answer their questions. They rode all the way to a place called Zi Yuan, south of Beifengtou Village. Passing through a waist, the horses were innocently frightened. They raise their heads and scream, bend their hooves, dig the ground and turn around. After some tossing, it stopped, and there was no big problem. They just dropped the golden bell of Zhao Kuangyin's horse to the bottom of the waist spot. A group of followers hurried down the ditch to look for it. Strangely, there was only half an acre of land at the bottom of the ditch. They searched for a long time, but couldn't find the golden bell. Zhao Kuangyin mused that it is easy to lose something, but it is difficult to find it. Therefore, the determination to visit Miao Guangyi was strengthened. Later, this waist was called Admiralty Bridge, which continues to this day.

Zhao Kuangyin and his party searched for several days without success. One day, I came to a place called Sanlidun without a purpose (legend has it that the ancient garrison kept horses). The weather is fine and people come and go. But don't want to in the vast sea of people, the emperor Zhao Kuangyin and former minister Miao Guangyi unexpectedly met here. Miao Guangyi was deeply moved when Zhao Kuangyin dismounted to meet him regardless of etiquette, but he decided to withdraw and refused to return to North Korea. In desperation, we had to pay a lot of money and goods, named Miao Xiaoyao Hou in a broad sense, and named Sanlitun "Yucun". Since then, since the early Song Dynasty, the village name of "Yuchun", the place where the monarch and the minister met, has been passed down to this day.

Miao Guangyi also lived an idyllic seclusion in a place more than 20 miles south of Zaosheng. Later generations named the village where the Miao people lived as "Houfeng Village", which is the village under the jurisdiction of Zhongcun Town today, to commemorate the Miao people's extensive indifference to fame and fortune. According to the records of Ningzhou, Miao Guangyi's tomb is located in the south of Ningzhou, which is in the area of today's Zhongcun Town.

It is worth mentioning that there are several "Yucun", "Yucun" and "Yutun" with different homonyms in the jurisdiction of Ningxian County, but only the name "Yucun" is an allusion, and every word has not changed for thousands of years.
