What is the "Jiyang Yan Sect"

According to the "Cai Family Genealogy": the Cai family comes from the surname Ji Chang, the fifth son of Zhou Wen King Jichang's uncle (the younger brother of King Wu Jifa and the uncle of King Cheng). After King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he established the Cai Kingdom in Cai (now Shangcai, Henan Province) by his brother Kun, who was a hero, and was destroyed by Chu in the 24th generation. His descendants took the country as their surname. The 52nd issue of "Jiyang Kecai Newsletter" also records: "From the time when Cai was enfeoffed by his uncle to the time when he was destroyed by Chu, he was passed down to twenty-four generations from twenty-three generations, and enjoyed the national economy for 662 years (1101-447 BC). "In the third year of Zhongjue." In the pre-Qin period, the Cai family multiplied in Henan and Hehui areas. Qin Prime Minister Cai Ze died and was buried in Chenliu, and his descendants followed the family. "("Cai Family Genealogy") In the Western Jin Dynasty, Chenliuyu was the breeding center of the Cai family. During the reign of Emperor Hui, Chenliu County was established in Jiyang County (now northeast of Lankao County, Henan Province). Therefore, the Cai family's county is regarded as the "Jiyang descendant" among the hundreds of surnames.

The thirty-seventh Cai Xun of Cai Shudu was named Junyan. During the reign of Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty (6-1 BC), Xiaolian was appointed as the magistrate of Chang'an Tai (now Wugong County, Shaanxi Province). During the reign of Emperor Ping (1-5 AD) For Yi Ling (now Yi Ling, Shaanxi Province), Wang Mang refused to serve as the prefect when he usurped the Han Dynasty, and took his family to hide in the mountains. Cai Xun passed down to the eldest son of the 28th Jun Zhi (the 19th generation), Yong Yuan, who was known by Wang Chao and Wang Shenzhi. When the brothers led a group of people to enter Fujian from Gushi, Henan, their family moved to Quanzhou in Fujian. They were originally from Tong'an. Later, they traveled to Chihu and Jiaoxi in Buju, and became the first generation ancestor of Puyang (Puyang was the original Xinghua military subordinate, with jurisdiction over Xinghua, Putian, Xianyou and other three counties).

What is the meaning of "Yanling Yanpai"

Fujian is an area where the Wu surname is concentrated, and it is also the province where the Wu surname arrived earlier in history.

There are also many channels for people with the Wu surname to enter Fujian. There are the Yanling sect and the Bohai sect in northern Fujian (according to the theory that they originally originated in Jiangsu and later spread to Shandong and Hebei, so they are said to have lived in the Bohai Sea for generations). The time of entering Fujian is also different.

Most of the people in southern Fujian are "Yanling Chuanfang". According to genealogy records, the southern inheritance of the Jizha ethnic group in Yanling respects Wu Renlu as the founder of Fujian.

Renlu was a Jinshi in the third year of Kaicheng of the Tang Dynasty (838). Dr. Gong Guozi moved to the Ministry of Household Affairs to be the chief minister. Because of his "shame, he was appointed by the chaos dynasty again". At the end of the Tang Dynasty, he entered Fujian from Gushi, Guangzhou, Henan. He lived in Dawu Township, east of Baima Temple, Shiliuli, Jinjiang County (now Dawu Village, Dongling Town, Hui'an County). He was buried in Panlong Village, the southern suburb of the county. Descendants of Renlu spread their sects in Quanzhou, Jinjiang and Nan'an areas. For more than a thousand years, they have prospered from generation to generation and become a prominent clan in their hometown. It has been passed down for more than 40 generations so far.

The Wu family in southern Fujian flourished and was known as "four sons divided into four streams": Longxi, Anxi, Meixi and Luoxi. In addition, since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Wu clan people in southern Fujian have spread their knowledge to Taiwan and Southeast Asia with their pioneering spirit.

According to incomplete statistics, the Wu family has millions of overseas members.

What is the meaning of "Yanpai" and "Chuanfang" in southern Fujian?

On the lintel plaques of some ancient houses in southern Fujian, these eye-catching characters can be seen everywhere: " Taiyuan Yanpai", "Qinghe Yanpai", "Longxi Yanpai", "Kaimin Chuanfang", "Jiumu Chuanfang" and so on. Do you know what they mean?

Yanpai: the origin of surnames

Southern Fujian has a long history, stretching back thousands of years. The development of southern Fujian is closely related to the large-scale southward migration of residents from the Central Plains and the north in history. For example, "Longxi", "Taiyuan", "Jiyang"...these place names in the Central Plains indicate that the majority of residents in southern Fujian today are immigrants from the Central Plains.

The scattered villages in southern Fujian are based on region and blood relationship, and often have a certain familial character, which allows them to develop stably. But the same surname, even in the same village, will have different sects. For example, among the Cai family in southern Fujian, there are Jiyang Yan sect, Puyang Yan sect and Qingyang Yan sect.

Chuanfang: A history to be remembered

It is understood that Chuanfang refers to the morality and style of a typical person with a surname, or his code of conduct and illustrious reputation that can set an example for future generations. . Taking the surname Yang as an example, many of the plaques of the Yang family say "Four Knowledges Pass on the Fragrance". The allusion comes from the familiar story of Yang Zhen, an upright official of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who was known as "Four Knowledges": Yang Zhen went to Donglai to be the prefect. Passing by Changyi, Wang Mi, the magistrate of Changyi who had been recommended by Yang Zhen in the past, came to Yang Zhen's residence at night carrying gold and wanted to give it to Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen refused and said: "My old friend knows you, but you don't know your old friend. Why?" Wang Mi said: "You are ignorant in the evening." Zhen said: "Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, I know, what is ignorance? Who?" Wang Mi went back ashamed.

In the process of migration and development of a surname, not only did it derive branches of the surname, but also many talented people appeared, or experienced some memorable things, or left behind some precious objects, many of which Many beautiful articles and beautiful stories are still handed down to this day. Chuanfang is more regional than Yanpai, because Chuanfang varies from place to place, and even the same Yanpai has different Chuanfang. For example, the surname Li in Meilin Village, Yongning, can be divided into "Shadi Chuanfang", "Zhu Shi Chuanfang" or "Zi Qi Dong Lai".

Culture and Attribution on Door Lintels

The lintels of homes with the surname Qiu in Wubao usually say "Henan Yanpai", while the lintels of houses with the surname Guo in Shihu Village, Kaijiang say "Fen". "Yangyan Sect", and the lintel of the residence named Xie in Jinshang reads "Precious Tree Chuanfang". The surname Zeng originated from the "Longshan Yan Sect". The most common lintels with the surname Wang are "Kai Min Chuan Fang", and the interesting "Cuan Long Chuan Fang" with the surname Dong.

They are not just four words on the lintel, they are the inheritance and recognition of clan culture by the people of southern Fujian, and they are the continuous pursuit and continuation of the sense of belonging that includes blood ties~

Qinghe Yan Sect

Yanpai refers to the origin or origin of a surname, branch lineage, and fragrant transmission are two aspects of a surname.

Qinghe Yanpai - four characters, Qinghe is a place name in ancient Henan. This kind of surname derivation comes from , so it is popular in southern Fujian. It seems that I have never seen this kind of thing engraved on the lintels like Quanzhou in other places.

Zhang - Qinghe Yanpai Qinghe Yanpai is a branch of the surname Zhang. Zhang Zhāng has been in the Chinese nation for five thousand years, and there are countless surnames, but some of them have disappeared. However, the Zhang surname has its huge branches contented in the land of China and thriving.

A brief review of the surname Zhang. The surname Zhang is one of the largest surnames in China. It has a long history and a large number of clans. There were 43 famous families with the surname Zhang, which is unrivaled among all surnames.

The surname Zhang has three obvious characteristics: first, it was acquired earlier and has a long history; second, the family has a large number of branches and branches all over the country, and people of the Zhang clan can be found everywhere; third, there are numerous talents and it is invincible. Countless, from ancient times to the present, outstanding figures of the Zhang family have contributed to the prosperity of the Chinese nation. Regarding the ancestor of the surname Zhang, there is the following record in the history books of the past dynasties: "The fifth son of the Yellow Emperor was born with the clear sun, which made the bow straight. He watched the arc star and began to make bows and arrows. He worshiped the arc star. Because of his surname Zhang (see "Yuanhe Surnames Compilation") 》) "Swinging arc arrows, he was granted the title of Zhang, and later became the Gong clan.

Zhang, looking out at Taiyuan. "(See "A Survey of Surnames") "Zhang, Huang, Li, Zhao, the surnames given by Huangdi. "

(See "Customs") "The Zhang family has been an official in the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty is divided into three, and has been an official in the Han Dynasty. Genealogists say that Shaohao, the son of the Yellow Emperor, was the fifth son of the Qingyang family who wielded his bow straight, watched the arc star, began to make bows and arrows, worshiped the arc star, and gave him the surname Zhang.

This is not the meaning of the surname. According to the Jin Dynasty, there was a name for Zhang, whose name was Zhanghou. Since then, there have been Zhang family members in the Jin Dynasty, so there is no doubt that the family name was named after Zhanghou.

(See "Tongzhi. Clan Overview.

Using the word as a surname") "The surname Zhang comes from the surname Ji, and those who have the surname in Zhou Dynasty have ancestors in Han, and those who are popular Twelve, they are called Xiangyang, Luoyang, Hedong, Shixing, Feng Yi, Wujun, Pingyuan, Qinghe, Hejian, Zhongshan, Wei, and Shu (see Yuan Jue's "Preface to the Genealogy of the Zhang Family"). From the above records, The origin of the surname Zhang can be traced back to Huangdi, the founder of the Chinese nation five thousand years ago. He is a direct descendant of Huangdi's fifth son, Qingyang, who gave birth to a son called Hui. After the Yellow Emperor, he was the ancestor of the surname Zhang. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the surname Zhang is a direct descendant of the Yellow Emperor.

This descendant of the Yellow Emperor named Hui was very smart. He saw the arc in the sky. It turns out that there is a star in the sky named "Tian Gong", referred to as "Arc", which belongs to the Nine Stars and is in the shape of a bow in the southeast of Sirius. , the outer star is like an arrow, in the two constellations of Canu and Nanchuan.

"Song Dynasty. Astronomical Chronicles": "The nine stars of Arc Arrow are in the southeast of Wolf Star, and the sky bow is also". "Tian Gong", inspired by the shape of "Tian Gong", was the first to invent the bow and arrow, an important weapon in ancient times.

He was also "given the surname Zhang". However, the original "Zhang" is not the meaning of the surname.

Because after the invention of the bow and arrow, before using it, the bow must be opened with strength, otherwise it will not be usable. Hui was named "Zhang" for this reason.

From then on, some of Hui's descendants were named Gong and some were named Zhang. They were divided into two branches for this reason. Later generations of people with the surname Zhang often explained it as "Zhang with a long and stretched bow" when talking about his own surname. This is also the origin of this.

This Zhang surname originated from Hui. It was acquired very early and is the earliest and oldest Zhang surname in China. After nearly two thousand years, in the Zhou Dynasty about three thousand years ago, two more Zhang surnames appeared in the land of China.

What is different from other surnames is that the two newly added Zhang surnames also have Huangdi as their ancestor, and both come from Korea and Jin, which were founded by the descendants of King Wen of Zhou's Ji surname. In South Korea and the Jin State, some people take Zhang as their surname, that is, "the surname Zhang comes from the surname Ji, and the person who takes the surname Zhou as his surname is from Han." "

In Zhang's total source, two more sources were added. These two branches of the Zhang family are more than two thousand years later than Hui, but they are both descendants of the Huangdi Xuanyuan family, but there is a difference in distance.

Regarding the earliest origin of the surname Zhang, the branch directly passed down from the Yellow Emperor originally originated from today's Taiyuan. Taiyuan is the birthplace of the Zhang family in China and the seat of the famous Zhang family of the Chinese nation.

After arriving in South Korea and the Jin Kingdom in the Zhou Dynasty, due to the addition of new sources, the origins of the surname Zhang also developed in many places. Yuan Jue said, no more here. In the Jin State at that time, the famous Zhang family included "Qinghe, Nanyang, Wujun, Anding, Dunhuang, Wuwei, Fanyang, Jianwei, Peiguo, Liangguo, Zhongshan, Jijun, Hanoi, and Gaoping Shi4wang". /p>

Those who changed their surname to Zhang in the Han and Jin Dynasties were later than the descendants of Hui, but they succeeded and multiplied widely. According to the paper map of "Zhonghua Surname Prefecture", the Zhang family had already existed during the Ming Dynasty. There are 43 surnames, which not only spread all over the country, but also become famous families in many places, surpassing other surnames.

These two sources of the Zhang surname in the Zhou Dynasty later became a major surname in China. In the origin of the Zhang family name, there are also elements from ethnic minorities. After the Han Dynasty, due to the strength of Liu Han, some ethnic minorities changed their surname to Liu, and a small number of minorities also changed their surname to Liu. The ethnic group changed their surname to Zhang. Some people with other surnames, who admired the clan leaders, also abandoned the original surname and chose Zhang.

"Wei Zhi" records that Cao Cao's general Zhang Liao had the original surname. Nie later changed his surname to Zhang. There is also a record in the "Records of Du Shi Fang Yu" that "Zhuge Liang of the Han Dynasty gave Long Youna the title of Zhang". These are all examples of the spread of the Zhang family. The migration situation is also relatively complicated. Since the surname Zhang is spread all over the country, and famous families of the surname Zhang are spread all over the country, the surname Zhang has very complicated characteristics during its thousands of years of reproduction and migration. Although the surname Zhang in each place has different characteristics. They all have their own breeding centers, but the ancestors, time, and routes of Boqian are different from the ancestors of other surnames who have different origins.

They are in different regions. People with the Zhang surname have always been rich in talents at different times, in different directions.

Starting from Zhang Yi who lobbied the Six Kingdoms to attack Qin during the Warring States Period, in all subsequent dynasties and dynasties. , Zhang's famous people have appeared on the stage of history. There are many "family treasures" of the Zhang family, and few other people can compare with them. A brief list is as follows: During the Han Dynasty, Zhang's people were already among the best.

Whether it is in politics, career, academics, art, medicine, etc.

What does the Lishan Yan sect mean?

The surname Yao has a long history. The surname was formed around the 22nd century BC. According to the "New Book of Tang Dynasty. Lineage of Prime Ministers": "The surname is Yao. Yu Shun was born in Yao Xu, so he took it as his surname. "Also according to "Looking for the Origin of Surnames": "Yu has two surnames, and the surname is Yao because he was born in Yao Xu. Because they lived in Guishui, their surname was Wei, so Yao restored his surname and changed his surname to Gui, but Gui changed his surname to Yao, so the two surnames of Yao and Gui were compatible. ,, before Shun became emperor, Emperor Yao married his two daughters to him and let them live in Weirui. This is the origin of the name Weirui. Therefore, in history, the two surnames Gui and Yao were from the same clan and they used to use each other.

According to "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Wai Ji Volume 1": "Gusou was born in Shun in Yao Ruins, with the surname Yao... he farmed in Mount Li..."

In Jinjiang On the door plaques with the surname Yao in the Keng area, you can often see the four characters "Lishan Yan Sect". "Lishan Yanpai", as the county commander of Yao surname, is to commemorate the glorious history of his ancestor, Emperor Shun, who worked in Lishan. According to "Huainanzi Hou Dao Xun Wen": "Shun cultivated in Lishan, and those who farmed every year fought for the right of the ridge, and gave it to the fertile land.

"When Shun was farming in Lishan, when there were disputes over field boundaries, grains, etc., he was always humble and generous, and never argued with others. Over time, the farmers in Lishan were influenced by his virtues. , all competed to give up the field boundary, so the Yao surname was named "Lishan Yanpai" as the county commander, in order to commemorate the virtues of the ancestor Emperor Shun."

The Yao surnames in southern Fujian are all from the Central Plains. Migrated here. According to Zhangzhou Prefectural Chronicles: When Chen Zheng and Chen Yuanguang and their sons entered Zhangquan in the Tang Dynasty, there were also generals named Yao among their subordinates, and they later settled in Fujian. By the Song Dynasty, the Yao surname was not only distributed in Xianyou, Pucheng, Fu'an, Ninghua and other places in Fujian, but also branched into branches such as Meizhou, Haiyang, Chaozhou and Dabu in Guangdong. At the same time, it was also distributed in Hefei, Anhui, Jiading, Shanghai, and Caoxian, Shandong. There are also settlements in Hebei, Lulong, Baotou, Inner Mongolia, Chaoyang, Liaoning and other places. At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, among Zheng Chenggong's generals, there were also many generals named Yao, such as Yao Tai, Yao Yu, Yao Chaoyu, Yao Fu, etc. They followed Zheng Chenggong to develop Taiwan and then migrated overseas.

For the Yao surname in southern Fujian, in addition to using "Lishan Yanpai" as the county commander, you can also often see "Tao Qiu Shize", "Guishui Chuanfang", "Wu Xingjia", "Orange" Hall names such as "Chuangfang Li Chuanfang". Each of these hall numbers has a legendary story.

The origin of the title of "Wu Xingjia" is recorded in the "New Book of Tang Dynasty": "Sun Jingzhong, a descendant of Chen Hu Gong, became the Tian family, and later lived in Lu. When he arrived in Tianfeng, Wang Mang was granted the title of Dai Muhou After serving Shun, Zi Hui fled the chaos and lived in Wu County. He changed his surname to Gui. In the fifth generation, Sun Fu changed his surname to Yao and lived in Wukang, Wuxing. "According to folklore, Tian Hui escaped from the chaos in Shandong at that time. When he came to Wuxing, Zhejiang, more than ten generations of ancestors from his father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather were all descendants of single men, and the population was sparse. Until Tian Hui moved to Wuxing, Zhejiang, the population began to flourish, and there was a continuous line of descendants. The fifth generation grandson Tianfu changed the surname Tian to Yao and began to multiply and branch out. Therefore, the descendants of Yao who were later distributed from Wuxing to live in other places took the name "Wuxing Family" in order to commemorate the "Feng Shui Treasure Land" of Wuxing. . "Tao Qiu Shize" commemorates the history of Shun farming in Lishan, fishing in Leize, and Tao in Hebin.

Juli Yaocuo, an ancient mountain village in Likeng, Jinjiang (now Neikeng, Jinjiang), was rich in snow pears and kumquats in the early days. The place was named Likeng. Later, due to homophony, Likeng was called Neikeng. At that time The ancestors of the Yao surname who moved to Likeng had a keen eye for identifying treasures. They cut through thorns and thorns in the ancient mountain area where golden oranges were abundant, and settled down and multiplied. In order to commemorate the development site, future generations named it "Fragrance in the Oranges". As a hall number.
