History
History
Pei County was the hometown of Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han dynasty, and of his oath brother Fan Kuai, one of the most well-known lords who helped Liu Bang to overthrow the Qin dynasty and establish the Han dynasty. Fan Kuai's descendants are still living in Pei County now. Xiaopei (小沛) is an ancient Chinese town located in present-day Pei County. In the late Eastern Han dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of the Xu Province, which was governed by Tao Qian. Before Tao Qian died, he handed his governorship over to Liu Bei. Liu Bei took refuge in Xiaopei when Lü Bu seized the Xu Province from him through deceit.
