The fourth surname of Chinese in Liu Wei. There are three origins; (1) from the qi surname. According to legend, the surname of Emperor Yao, one of his descendants took Qi as his surname and was named Liu Guo (Tangxian County, Hebei Province), later known as Liu. ② The source is Du surname. Du Bo's grandson is a judge in the State of Jin. After Xianggong's death, the scholar went to the State of Qin to meet Yong, the son of the State of Jin, and stayed in the State of Qin because of the changes in the State of Jin. His descendants took Wei Liu's surname (meaning "stay"). (3) The source is Ji's surname. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the younger son Wang Ji was named Liu Kanggong (south of Yanshi County, Henan Province), and later generations also called Liu. In Liu's history, there are many famous families. Liu Pengcheng Kui family, Nanyang Liu Jin family and Liu Zhucheng Yong family all occupy an important position in the history of China. Not to mention the Liu Bang family in Pei County, which split the Han empire. Emperor gaozu Liu Bang founded the Han Dynasty, and Liu became your emperor for more than 400 years. During the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei established Shu Han, and two generations proclaimed themselves emperor for 43 years. It took 60 years for Emperor Wu of the Southern and Northern Dynasties to establish the Song Dynasty. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, Liu Bowen assisted Zhu Yuanzhang in establishing the Ming Dynasty and unifying China for 276 years. It can be seen that Liu is good at laying the foundation The Liu family is a complex family with five groups of members, and its organization is also very complicated. According to textual research, they are at least composed of the following five groups: descendants of Chi Di, descendants of his father Wang Ji, surname change of Lou, surname change of Xiang and surname change of Huns. There is a preface about the surname of Liu Jingwei in the First Record of Liu in Taihe, which describes it most clearly: "Only Liu is from Qi, and then his son has a text saying that Liu Lei is a surname because he thinks it is a surname. Kongjia was a royal dragon surname in summer, and his descendants were more loyal to Wei surname in Shang Dynasty, Du surname in Tang Dynasty and Du surname in Zhou Dynasty. Because of his formal appointment, Du Life was recommended as a judge. The sage more than 4,000 years ago, known as one of the "Five Emperors", is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor's surname Ji. Therefore, tracing back to the source, the Liu family is obviously the most authentic descendant of the Yellow Emperor. In addition, among the other descendants of the Yellow Emperor, there is a family named Liu Wei according to the Records of Words and Actions of Famous Nationalities. It is pointed out in the book: "Dr. Chow was in Liu's diet, and he was healthy and dedicated, and later", and the so-called "Dr. Chow" in this document was actually a descendant of his father Zhou, which was sealed in the southwest of Yanshi County, Henan Province. In other words, this Liu family originated in Zhou, originated in Henan. So, where did the Liu family, which originated from Emperor Yao, originally originate? It is recorded in Tongzhi Genealogy: "Tao was later sealed in Liu, and now he lives in Tangxian County, Dingzhou", which clearly points out that Liu's hometown is now Tangxian County, Hebei Province. Liu Bang, the famous Emperor Gaozu, was born from the branch of Emperor Yao. According to textual research, this Liu family was originally bred in the present Shaanxi-Gansu area, and began to spread to Henan and Jiangsu in 300 BC, that is, the fast king era of the Zhou Dynasty. Among them, among the descendants who moved to the land of abundance and Peiguo in Jiangsu, there was a man named Liu Duan who gave birth to four sons: Bo, Zhong, Bang and Jiao. The third son, Liu Bang, was the founder of the Han Dynasty. He later ascended the throne from scratch. After Liu Bang conquered the world with a commoner, he quickly enfeoffed the whole country with the same surname. Therefore, the subsequent tribal reproduction naturally laid a solid foundation for the Liu family in various places, forming a grand occasion for Liu in various places for more than two thousand years. According to legend, Liu's kin and relatives were distributed in Pengcheng, Weishi, Linhuai, Nanyang, Guangping and Danyang. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the/kloc-6th century, the number of Liu's breeding centers had increased to 25, which were roughly Pengcheng, Hongnong, Hejian, Zhongshan, Dunqiu, Nanyang, Dongping, Gaotang, Gaomi, Jingling, Changsha, Henan and other places detailed in The House of Chinese Surnames. Origin of Liang family: Liang family came from yuanshi county, yuanshi county from Dongyi department, and later Boyi. Thirty-five Luos of Boyi gave birth to a son. Feng Kang, the youngest son of Qin Zhong, was appointed as the count of xia yang, a Liangshan hero (now south of Hancheng, Shaanxi). In 64 1 year BC, Qin Mugong sent troops to destroy Liang State and changed its name to Shaoliang. After the national subjugation, most of Liang's grandchildren fled to the State of Jin, taking the original country name as their surname, namely Liang's. This is what Yuanhe Hangbian said: "Liang got his surname. After Boyi, Qin Zhong made meritorious service. The youngest son was sealed in xia yang, and xia yang was destroyed by Liang Bo, then by Qin, and later people took the country as their surname. "Ji Kang is the ancestor of Liang's family, which is authentic in history. Ancestor: Boyi. According to legend, Emperor Zhuan Xu had a granddaughter who was a famous woman. After I picked up the eggs of swallows, I gave birth to a great cause. Daye married the daughter of Shaodian and gave birth to Boyi. Boyi, who helped Dayu to control the water, resumed his worship of the won surname. Boyi was the ancestor of all ethnic groups in ancient times. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, due to the contributions made by Qin Zhong and his son in the conquest of Xirong, Qin Zhong's second son was promoted to Liangshan and xia yang (near Hancheng, Shaanxi Province), and Liang was established, and he was made a monarch and called Liang. In 64 1 year BC, Liang was conquered, and the descendants of Liang Bo took the country as their surname, and Boyi became the ancestor of Liang. There are many tribes named Liang who migrated and distributed, but according to historical records, their earliest birthplace is now Shaanxi area. Before the Jin Dynasty, Liang lived in the north, with the northwest as the main distribution point. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Liang lived in Shanxi. According to records, when Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, Lin Liang was appointed as the magistrate of Taiyuan. At the end of Han Dynasty, Shanxi Liang moved to Yaoxian and Fuping in Shaanxi. During the reign of Emperor Han Ping, Liang's surname was concentrated in Anding (now eastern Gansu and most of Ningxia) and Fufeng (now western Guanzhong, Shaanxi). Among them, the surname of Anding Liang is the most vigorous and has become a prominent local family. At this time, there is also a county called Liang in Tianshui area, which was developed for minority nationalities to change their surnames. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, social unrest and wars were frequent, and people moved south in an endless stream to avoid the disaster of war, and Liang was no exception. It is reported that during the "Yongjia Rebellion" in the Western Jin Dynasty, Liang Fang led his family to move south with the Jin Dynasty between Hangzhou, Zhejiang and Hepu, Guangdong. And Liang Ya, who started Fuzhou, is considered as the ancestor of Fujian and Guangdong. At this time, Liang surname has spread all over Sichuan, Anhui, Jiangxi, Hubei, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Fujian and other places in the south. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the surname Liang developed greatly in the south. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, due to the invasion of Jin Bing and Mongolian army, Liang moved to the south again on a large scale, which further promoted the reproduction and development of Liang in the south. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the surname Liang had spread all over the country, with Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang as the main settlements. Nowadays, Liang is the majority in Guangdong, accounting for about 4.7% of the province's population and 35% of the country's Liang. Liang is the 20th most popular surname in China today. It has a large population, accounting for about 0.84% of the Han population in China.
