Originated from Huangdi
The Yellow Emperor had twenty-five sons, and fourteen people got surnames, including Ji, You, Qi, Ji, Teng, Zhen, Ren, Xun, Yi, etc. Four of them belonged to the second surname.
In Mandarin Today, Xu Chen explained: "There are twenty-five descendants of the Yellow Emperor, fourteen of whom have surnames, a total of twelve surnames, including Ji, You, Qi, Ji, Teng, Zhen, Ren, Xun, Nuo, Yi and Yi."
"Historical Records" contains: Huangdi, son of Shaodian. Ren Shi, a descendant of Yuyang, the youngest son of the Yellow Emperor, belongs to the surname given by the emperor and takes the country name as his surname.
According to the records of Tang Shu Prime Minister Pedigree Table and Zuo Zhuan Zheng Yi, it was one of the twelve basic surnames given by Emperor Huang more than 5,000 years ago. This is an ancient surname with a glorious tradition.
In the eleventh year of Yin Gong, Zuo Zhuan wrote: "All ten countries are surnamed Xie, Zhang, Xue, Shu, Lu, Zhu, Quan, Bi and Guo."
Because Huangdi made cars, he called himself Xuanyuan, the royal family, and because Xizhong made cars, he called himself Xuanyuan royal family. In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there were ten surnames: Xie, Zhang, Xue, Shu, Lu, Zhu, Zhong, Quan, Bi and Guo.
They are all vassals of the descendants of the stone man and distributed by the stone man. There is a saying in Zuo Zhuan that "I dare not compete with the gentry", in which the so-called "Zhuren" refers to these ten surnames, which are the most common surnames of the nobles in the Western Zhou Dynasty, so I dare not compete with them, which shows the prominence of the gentry at that time.
Legend has it that Emperor Xuanyuan established a country and gave it to his youngest son, Yu Yang, who gave the country a surname. It is said that the country has simple folk customs, no doors closed at night, no roads left, no officials, no soldiers, no taxes, no poverty, no wealth, no dignity, no harm to people's hearts, no desires and no demands, and a happy life.
