From the Han dynasty (206 BC–220 AD) to Western Jin dynasty (265–317), it came under the jurisdiction of Tancheng County (镡成县) of Wulingjun (武陵郡).[8]
The territory of Jingzhou Miao and Dong Autonomous County has been governed by the Eastern Jin dynasty (317–420), Liu Song dynasty (420–479), Southern Qi dynasty (479–502), Liang dynasty (502–557) and Chen dynasty (557–589).[8]
In 581, Emperor Wen of Sui established the Sui Empire (581–618), it was under the jurisdiction of Longbiao County (龙标县) of Yuanlingjun (沅陵郡).[8]

In 1076, Emperor Shenzong of Song sent soldiers to seize the region and established "Chengzhou" (诚州) in 1081. In the next year, the imperial court established Quyang County (渠阳县) out of Yuanzhou (沅州) and it used to be in the territory of Chengzhou. In 1103, the local leader Yang Shengzhen (杨晟臻) has allegiance to the Song Empire (960–1279) and the imperial court renamed the region "Jingzhou" (靖州). In 1138, Quyang County was renamed Yongping County (永平县).

The Mongol Yuan Empire (1271–1368) set up province system to maintain control of the vast region. Jingzhou was renamed Jingzhoulu (靖州路).[7] In 1346, Wu Tianbao (吴天保) and Yang Liuzong (杨留总), both headers of Miao people, rose up in national rebellion against Mongol occupation. The central government put down the rebellion three years later.[10]
In the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), Jingzhou ruled four counties including Huitong, Tongdao, Suining and Tianzhu.[7]
