《水经注·卷二十三》
《陈留风俗传》说：这是秦时的毁县。后来汉兵起事，遭到战祸，县里连年灾荒，因而改名为蓄县；王莽时又改名嘉毁。章帝东巡时经过此县，下诏说：陈留蓄县，县名不好，高祖讨厌柏人这县名太恶劣，世宗改闻喜、获嘉的县名，以纪念吉庆的喜事。为感激先皇英灵的眷顾，把荣耀归于历代武功显赫的先皇，特此把蓄县改为考城。
高祖鄙柏人之邑，世宗休闻喜而显获嘉应亨吉元符，嘉皇灵之顾，赐越有光列考武皇，其改菑县曰考城。
"Chenliu Customs" said: This is the destroyed county of the Qin Dynasty. Later, when the Han army rebelled, the county suffered from war and disasters for many years, so it was renamed Xucheng County; Wang Mang renamed it Jiahuai. When Emperor Zhang passed through this county during his eastward tour, he issued an edict saying: "Chenliu Xucheng County" has a bad county name. Gaozu hated the county name of Bairen for being too bad. Emperor Shizong changed the name of Wenxi and Huojia counties to commemorate the auspicious event. . In order to be grateful for the care of the heroic spirits of the first emperors, and to give glory to the first emperors who were outstanding in martial arts throughout the ages, Xuchu County was specially renamed Kaicheng.
