History of Wuzhuang Village:

Wuzhuang Village has a long history. According to records, in the sixth year of Xiande in the Zhou Dynasty (AD 957), Dr. Guanglu of Yin Qing proofread the imperial envoy Wang Zuo, and built a village named "Changle Township" in the tenth pupil of Qiancheng County. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, this area of the Central Plains was swept north by the prince, and the king was an official in the capital. When he returned to his hometown, he found that all his family members had been killed, but only the second surnamed Wu lived in the cellar to see the king's grave, which was spared. With nostalgia for the old, Wang's ancestors built a new village next to the ancestral grave, named "Wu Erzhuang", which was changed to Wuzhuang Village in Qing Dynasty. The descendants of the king in the village are all prosperous. Because of war and hunger, many people go out to look for jobs and survive. Due to information blocking, most of them have lost contact. 90% of the population in Wuzhuang Village is still the Wang family, and all households are United and harmonious, with simple folk customs.
