The origin of surnames

Origin one

Originated from the family, taking Yi as the surname. According to Tongzhi Genealogy, he is a descendant of He tribe in ancient times and the leader of Dongyi nationality in ancient times, whose name is Jin. Shao Hao's son is honest as a worker, and the ancient books are also called "bows and arrows", which are sealed in Yincheng and are called "quasi-Yin" in the world. Most descendants take the feudal surname "Yin" as their surname. The fief of the descendants of Yin in the Zhou Dynasty has always been in (now the northeast of Xixian County, Shaanxi Province). After the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty, it moved eastward to Luoyang in 770 BC, and the descendants of Yin moved to Luoyang to avoid the intrusion of Rong nationality. As a fief of the Yin family, it also moved here. This second Yin Cheng (now southeast of Xin 'an County, Henan Province) belonged to the "Guinei State" of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and was directly under the jurisdiction of the capital. Zuo Zhuan records that in the twenty-third year of Lu, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was involved in the succession of the throne, and there was a war. In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Second Army of Liu Zi attacked Yin Cheng along the banks of Luohe, and was defeated by Yin Wengong. In 5 16 BC, Zhao Yang, an official of the State of Jin, joined the vassal to support Zhou. Later, Zhao Yang and Yu Xun led the Jin army into Zhou and occupied the city. This second one soon disappeared, and the people were scattered in various countries, taking the original feudal city as their surname, which was the basis of the Yin family.

From the Western Zhou Dynasty Taishi Gong Jia Xi. Xi Jia, whose real name is Bojifu, is known as "Yin Jifu" and was a minister during the reign of Zhou Xuanwang. During the Zhou Liwang period, due to its cruel rule, the people of China revolted, and Zhou Liwang was deported and exiled to Quetta. After Zhou Liwang's death, ministers made Prince Ji Jing for Zhou Xuanwang. After the accession to the throne, he appointed ministers to call Mu Gong, Zhou, Jia and others as assistants to rectify the state affairs and revive the increasingly weak Zhou room. Xi Jia's main achievement is to crusade against the ethnic minorities who invaded the Zhou Dynasty. He refused to be opinionated in the north and conquered Huaiyi in the south. Jia was honored as "Yin" because of his outstanding exploits. Later, Juyi (now Nan 'an, Hebei Province) was given as a fief, and Jia was listed as a teacher Yin. Later, his official position was described, and his eldest son, Baihua, was named "Ji"

In the Han dynasty

During the Han Dynasty, Chu and Han fought for hegemony, Wang Mang's rebellion and the Yellow turban insurrectionary successively. The turbulent social environment promotes the frequent migration of population. Yin Hui, the right prime minister in the reign of Emperor Gaozu, Yin Zun in the reign of Emperor Gaozu, and Yin Sui in the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, fought everywhere and lived without a fixed place. Such frequent abrupt migration has expanded the geographical distribution of the Yin family and spread it all over Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hebei, Hebei and other places. Yin surname is a typical northern surname. For example, Yin Qi, a cruel official in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was from chiping, Dong Jun; Yin Weng, Zhao Taishou, from Pingyang, Hedong; Yin Min, a master of Confucian classics during the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was a native of Duyang, Nanyang; Yin Mu, the eunuch of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was from Gongxian County, Henan Province. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, four surnames, Dragon, Fu, Yin and Dong, were formed in the region. It is recorded in the Biography of Southwest China in the History of the Later Han Dynasty that "in Gongsun Shu, dragons, Fu, Yin, Dong and Cao Xie Si 'an were the most popular, and they kept their territory as Han". These migrating Han people contributed to the unification of southwest China in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Wei, Jin, southern and northern dynasties

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Yin family flourished in Tianshui and Xizhou (now central and northwestern Gansu), becoming a local aristocratic family, and many figures emerged, such as Mrs. Yin in Xiliang. Yin Wei, a native of Tianshui, Longyou, was a minister at the end of Qin Dynasty and loyal to Qinghe. He was ambitious since he was a child, and the world was in chaos after the water war. He urged Yao Chang to stand on his own feet and become the founding father of the late Qin Dynasty. Mrs. Yin, the wife of Li Gui, the founding emperor of Xiliang, and the daughter of Tianshui County, later moved to ancient Tibet (now Wuwei) with her father. She is beautiful, studious and versatile. Liyao was endowed with a lot of hard work and wisdom in the performance of Xiliang, and was called "Li Wang Yin Dunhuang" by people at that time, so she had the reputation of Tianshui County. Yin Chong, commander of Hulao Pass in Liu and Song Dynasties, General Andrew, Shang Shu of Tang Ministry of Industry, Yin Sizhen of Tianshui County, Di Gong Lang, Yin Zhizhen, and so on. Their ancestral home is called Tianshui. Yin's family in Poping, North Korea also came from Tianshui, China, and moved to North Korea at the end of the Tang Dynasty, which shows that Yin's power in Tianshui is great.

Sui and Tang Dynasties

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Sixth Sun first lived in Jiangling. In the seventh year of Huang Kai, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty recruited Xiao Cong to the court, and Yin Xin followed Chang 'an. In the great cause of Yang Di, he is Sima Ningzhou. Tang Gaozu, Yin Xin, ran back and later became an ancient consultant. High-impedance Xin Li changed his name to Yin Hui in order to avoid taboo, and his son Yin Sizhen was appointed as assistant minister of the Second Department of the Criminal Family. Another scholar, who went out to block Yang, moved to Hebei and developed into a big imperial clan in Sui and Tang Dynasties. Therefore, there is Hejian County Hope, there is the northern Wei Dynasty Zhaozhou secretariat Yin Ruins, and there is Yin in the crusade against the rebels, all from Hejian. During this period, there were few celebrities named Yin in the history books, but the social environment of honest officials and the people kept Yin in a stable reproduction period.

Song dynasty

At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the political center of the whole country moved to Henan, the Central Plains, and later General Jin You moved to Luoyang, becoming the founder of the Yin family in Luoyang. Yin Xian, the eldest son, was named Yan Xun. He was a secretariat of the three kingdoms of magnetism, communication and Chu, and his wife Fu Shi was related to Fu Yanqing. Zhao Guangyi of Song Taizong married the daughter of Yin Ruins in the Zhou Dynasty, but unfortunately she died young. Later, she was named the Queen of Shu De by posthumous title, and took Yin Xian's wife, Taifu and Pingyang Wang, and her wife, Fu Shi, as the wives of the two countries respectively. Yin Chongke, the Commissioner of Baoxin Army, the official of Shangshu, and Yin Chongrui, assistant minister of punishments, are all sons of Yin Xian. During the Northern Song Dynasty, literature and calligraphy developed greatly, and a large number of famous literati emerged, such as Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi and Sima Guang. At this time, there were also Yin literati, such as Ouyang Xiu, a good friend of the Northern Song Dynasty writer, who was called "Mr. Henan" and wrote "Collected Works of Mr. Henan". In addition, there are Yuan Yin, a master of Confucianism in the Song Dynasty, and He Jing, Chu Shi and Xuan Yin. At the end of the Song Dynasty, with the warning of the nomads from the north going south and the Mongolian fighters, the Han nationality in the north moved south one after another, and Yin also moved to Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places at this time, in which many tragic deeds happened, and the family history was recorded in detail, so I won't list them here.

Yuan Ming Qing dynasty

At the end of Song Dynasty, early Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, Jiangxi Yin continued to migrate to Hunan, Hubei and other provinces. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Hunan and Hubei moved into Sichuan and Chongqing in large numbers. This large-scale migration, coupled with individual migration in various situations, began to spread widely in southern provinces around the middle of the Qing Dynasty.
