In the 11th century BC, King Wu of Zhou enfeoffed his courtier Liangfu to the Rui邑 (now Ruicheng County, Shanxi Province. Another theory suggests that there was a Ruicheng south of Chaoyi County, Shaanxi Province). During the reign of King Cheng of Zhou, it was made into a vassal state, and the lord was called the Duke of Rui, who served as the Minister of Education in the Zhou royal court. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Rui was destroyed by the State of Jin. Later, people took the original name of the state, "Rui", as their surname.
