〖濟陽〗有武父鄕。左傳桓十二年「盟於武父」，杜預曰縣東北有武父城。縣東南有戎城。縣都鄕有行宮，光武生。 Jiyang had Wufu Township. The Zuo Tradition says, “They covenanted at Wufu,” in Duke Huan 12, and Du Yu places Wufu City northeast of the county. Rong City lay southeast of the county, and in Du Township there was a temporary palace where Guangwu was born.
