The origin of Wen surname
[Edit this paragraph] The origin of surnames (Wēn) has five surnames: 1, which comes from Ji's surname and the fief is named Shi. In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Wuwang named his son. Their descendants were sealed in Kawachinofumi (now Wenxian County, Henan Province), and their descendants were named Wen after the fief. 2, from the surname, it is also based on the name of the city. According to the records of Guang Yun and Wanxing Tongpu, Su Fensheng was appointed as the shepherd of the Zhou Dynasty at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty and was sealed in Wenzhou. In 650 BC, Wen was conquered by the Northern Di people, and Wen Zi, the monarch, fled to defend his country, which was called Wen Shi. Later, Jin conquered Di Ren, and Wen became the fief of Jin. At that time, Zhi Zhi commanded the Jin army to defeat the Chu army in the battle of Yanling and became the ruling minister of the State of Jin. The Zhi family was in power in the ruling and opposition, which caused the envy of other Jin Qing. Dissatisfied with Zhi's authoritarian power, I have long wanted to find an excuse to get rid of these powerful clans in China. This day also happened to be the day when Emperor Li and his ministers went hunting. Jin Ligong's favorite imperial secretary (chef) Meng Zhang robbed Moon Hee's deer and was shot by Moon Hee. Taking this as an excuse, Qi Huangong decided to get rid of Zhi's family and send someone to catch Zhi. After learning this news, Zhizhi's family advocated attacking and killing first, and setting up another monarch, but Zhizhi was unmoved and thought that it was better to be killed than to expect another. As a result, Gong Li reconciled a group of courtiers who bore a grudge against Pi family and destroyed Pi family. Some descendants fled abroad, and they were given Wen's surname by this city. 3, from the Levin family, also named after the city. According to the Tang Emperor's Monument, the descendants of Zhuan Xu Levin were sealed in Wen Yi and named after the city. 4. There is a Wen surname among Hui people. Winka Thorne, son of Batuga Bahari, King of Sulu, was born in Sulu (now Sulu Island) in the Ming Dynasty and descended from him. In the 15th year of Yongle (14 17), Baduka Ba-Halla, king of Sulu East, led a huge delegation of more than 300 people, including his family, to Yanjing. He died in Beiying Village, Dezhou, Shandong Province, leaving his second son Wen Taci, his third son An Dulu and the princess to guard the tomb and settle in China. Because both Wen 'an brothers believe in Islam, their customs and habits are similar to those of the Hui nationality, and then they merged into the Hui nationality. His pagoda thorn was named after the initial consonant (Andulu Yitong), which gave birth to the surname Wen. The ins and outs of Wen's surname (An) are recorded in detail in Wen's 16th Sun Wenshou's Wen 'an Jiacheng Yao Lu edited by 1934, which is of great research reference value. In addition, according to Xue's research on the surname of the Hui people, the two Hui people in Baoding, Hebei Province "have different opinions" and "claimed that their ancestors were Mongolians and came from Wendulu, antara, Mongolia". The ancestors of the two brothers adopted the Han surname, which was divided into An surname and Wen surname according to the first place names. According to this soliloquy, if the initials of Mongolian place names-antara and Du Wen are exchanged, it is Andulu, the son of Sulu East King in Dezhou, Shandong Province. Uhasone (Tara). This is obviously not a coincidence. Moreover, whether in Dezhou, Shandong Province or Baoding, Hebei Province, there is a common saying that Wen 'an (An Wen) is not divided, and "the ancestors adopted the Han surname", which is obviously in the same strain. The difference between "name" and "place name" may be something else. Therefore, it can be asserted that Wen 'an (An Wen) in Dezhou, Shandong Province and Baoding, Hebei Province should be of the same ancestry. Hui people with Wen surname are mainly distributed in Shandong and Hebei. 5. Changing the surname from other nationalities: ① According to the Book of the Tang Dynasty, in the Tang Dynasty, in Kangju country (now part of the northern border of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to Russia), the king's surname was Wen, and later he entered China, so he became Wen. (2) According to Tongzhi, Wen's family name, Wen's family name and Shi's family name were all changed to Wen's in the Northern Wei Dynasty. (3) Jin Nuzhen Wendy Han's China surname is Wen; According to the Book of the Tang Dynasty, Liu, the son of the chief historian of Pengcheng in the Tang Dynasty, published the Ling Biao, was exempted from returning, and changed his surname. (4) In the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Eight Banners had Wente and surname, and Xibe Wendur Han surname Wen. Today, aborigines, Buyi, Tujia, Li, Zhuang, Yao and other ethnic groups in Taiwan Province Province all have this surname. The origin of Wen surname is complicated, but no matter where it comes from, it is a member of the Chinese family. It can be said that we were a family 500 years ago when we met. [Edit this paragraph] The migration and distribution originated from Wen's family in Henan. One of them moved to Qilian Mountain in Gansu Province in the early years of Western Zhou Dynasty, and merged into Gukangju country. Some of them failed to cross the green ridge, so they stayed in southern Xinjiang and established Wensu Country (now Wensu County). In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, there was a Tan Ren (a descendant of Moon Hee) in Taiyuan (now southeast of Qixian County, Shanxi Province). Since then, Yitai, a descendant of Wen's family, has been the original breeding center, gradually forming Taiyuan County. In the fourth year of Yuankang (66 BC), Chang 'an male scholar sent an imperial edict, ordering Wen and Sun Wenfu to return home. The post-Wen surname gradually spread to Qinghe and Zaoqiang in Hebei, Dongping, Gaotang, Linqing and Wucheng in Shandong, and developed into Wen surname plain and Qinghe County. During the Yongjia Rebellion in the Jin Dynasty, Wen moved south with the Jin family, while Qi Renqiao and Liu Kun in Taiyuan moved south, leaving Hongcheng (now Nanchang, Jiangxi) and their descendants stayed here. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the grandson Wen Jiulang fled Huang Chao and moved to southern Fujian. Another 140-year-old Wen Shangjian moved from Luoyang, Henan to Zaojiaoshui, Shicheng, Jiangxi, and his great-grandson Nan Gao moved from Shicheng to Shibi Township, Ninghua, Fujian. The second son, Jin, is famous, and his descendants are distributed in Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangxi and other places. Therefore, most of these three geothermal surnames are named Bao Tong as the oldest ancestor. At this time, Wen Houzong, the former state secretariat, moved to Fujian, and his descendants were divided into Liu Qing, Changting, Shicheng and Longyan. In the Song Dynasty, the eldest son Sun Qu, the second son Dekun moved to Xingning, Guangdong, the eldest son Deming moved to Xingguo, Jiangxi and the fourth son Deliang moved to Shanghang and Liancheng. At the end of the Song Dynasty, the descendants of Jiulangzhi re-entered eastern Guangdong. Liu Langgong moved to Meixian and set up a school for Song and Yuan townships. Gui Hegong is the founder of Wuhua; Liang is the founder of Jiaying County, Guangdong Province. In the 43rd year of Kangxi, the 14th generation grandson of Liang moved from Huizhou, Guangdong Province to Longphosphorus, Deng Village, Sihui City, Guangdong Province. Liang Bingong opened a school for Xiao Yong Township in Meixian County. In the early Ming Dynasty, Wen, as one of the surnames of people who moved to Sophora japonica in Hongdong, moved to Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu and other places. During the Jiajing period, Niansaburo moved from Ninghua to Lianjiang, Guangdong. By the end of Qing Dynasty, Wen's family had spread all over the country, and some people crossed the sea to Taiwan Province and spread abroad. Now Wen's surname is widely distributed in China, especially in Guangdong, accounting for about 29% of the total population of Han nationality in China. Wen is the 1 14 surname in China, with a large population, accounting for 0. 14% of the Han population in China. [1][ Edit this paragraph] The clan culture of the Wen family is mainly reflected in aspects such as spiritual outlook, county name, hall number connecting halls, family order replacing characters, hearsay and allusions. They have obviously different contents from his surname and have the characteristics of their own surnames, which is also the reason why Wen's surname is different from his surname. The clan characteristics and spiritual demeanor of the Wen family reflect the traditional virtues of the Wen family, which are mainly manifested in dealing with people. There are six family instructions written by Liang in Meixian County, Guangdong Province in ancient times, from which we can see the leopard: First, honor your parents; Two harmonious brothers; Three strict conduct; Fourth, advocating thrift; Public interests and interests; After six years of virtue and brocade. Wen's county is famous, mainly including: Hanoi county, where Wen's birthplace is located, indicating that he will not forget his ancestral land; Jixian County, there is a famous Northern Wei Dynasty Wen Zisheng; Taiyuan county has three words in the Tang dynasty; Henan county, there are dragons in Jin dynasty, Wen Zhongshu in Song dynasty, Qinghe county in Hebei province and Pingyuan county in Shandong province, all of which are places where Wen's celebrities are more. There are many names of the Wen family, most of which are characterized by cautious pursuit of the distant future, promotion of the virtues of ancestors and care for relatives and families. They often use their ancestors' stories about Jia Deyi in their names to show their family background and inspire future generations. Mainly include: Guwen Hall, Taiyuan Hall (with place names), Sanyantang, Tang Shuyu (with ancestral names), Zhao Qiantang, Yaxitang (with good deeds) and so on. The couplets of Wen's Ancestral Hall mostly express ancestors' deeds by artistic means, so as to achieve the purpose of offering sacrifices to ancestors and protecting future generations. Such as: "Only to reconcile the three sons (three words), the poem is beautiful and eight-pronged (literary)", "Elegant (born in Wen Zi), the rhinoceros brewed in Ming Dynasty (literary ingenuity)", "Six dragons are loyal and filial (literary immortal), and three words are magnificent and prosperous (Yan Bo)". Wen's family order words, that is, one word in each generation's name to express' family order', are convenient for the difference between grandparents and grandchildren. For example, the Wen family in wen county hopes to strengthen the family: "Yongxing the world and revitalize the national jade base." The Wen family in Shanghang, Fujian moved south, never forgetting their ancestral land: "Taiyuan was the birthplace of the Tang Dynasty." These have obvious clan characteristics. The hearsay and allusions of Wen are all formed by the historical relics that our ancestors are familiar with, and people from generation to generation will never forget them. Such as two outstanding ancient writers, three sages in Taiyuan, burning strange rhinoceros, eight poems, the show of six dragons, Wen Kou's fame, Ju Peng and seven talents, have typical historical education significance. There are poems and masterpieces in Wen's poetry articles, whether in the ancient spectrum or in the current new spectrum. This is a manifestation of inheriting people's culture, displaying talents and inspiring future generations. Many genealogies of his surname are unprecedented. For example, Wen Xun's poems by Qing Dynasty poets were collected in Wen Family Tree of Meizhou, Guangdong. The compilation of Wen's Genealogy pays great attention to the origin and invites more elegant people to write it, so as to clarify the ins and outs of its branches. For example, The History of the Development of the Wen Family in Guangdong includes the Preface to the Origin of the Wen Family written by Wen Tianxiang, the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, which discusses the inheritance of the Wen family from the local area quite clearly. In today's Wen's Genealogy, we not only recorded the pedigree and its name, or copied some excellent poems, but also started the standardized compilation. They not only sorted out the contents of the previous genealogy, divided it into chapters and sections, but also attached importance to the textual research of historical documents and added a general introduction to the cultural residential areas. It is worth noting that in the ancestral temple of Shi Wen in Formosa Plastics, there are two couplets that express the aspiration of not forgetting the Chinese ancestors and inheriting the national culture of Everbright: "Everbright is the ancestor of Jin, Tang and Song Dynasties, and carries forward the voice of 368 families", "Six dragons are loyal to filial piety, and three Hongyan are prosperous". Its wandering heart can be seen at a glance.
