Yu's ancestor is Yu Biao. According to records: "Huang has a medical officer, whose name is Yu Ting, which is the beginning of his surname." Yu Biao, the minister of the Yellow Emperor, has a good medical skill. According to Huainanzi, Biography of Han Poems, Shuoyuan and other books, his deeds are recorded, or he is called ",","beyond" and "Yu Yu". "Shuo Yuan" says: "Yu Chaobiao is also a doctor, and he binds his brain, knows nine orifices, sets meridians, and comes back from death." Yu's descendants passed on Yu's surname as Yu. In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a descendant of Yu, named Yu Zun, who was smart and eager to learn, promoted to a scholar, proficient in the world and omniscient. The emperor liked him to pretend to know metaphors, so he named him Yu's family, and his descendants passed on Yu's family and formed some Yu's families. Therefore, the descendants of Yu named Yu Ting the ancestor of Yu.

Origin of surname

The origin of Yu:

1, from Ji's surname

According to the title "Yu Pu", Yu Fu has no descendants at all.

2, from the surname rice

It originated from the surname Mi, from the fiefs of the public clan of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and belongs to the name of the fief as the surname or the name of the compound surname simplified as the surname. According to the historical record "A Brief History of Clans", "The surname is Mi, and the son of Chu took Nanyang Pavilion because of his surname." After the Song Dynasty, some people in the clan merged with Yu, and the provincial slips were changed to Yu, while others were changed to Yu and Yi. Yi family is now Dou family.

3. From an official standpoint,

Originated from the official position, from the metaphor of official names in Qin and Han dynasties, belonging to the official title. Messenger, also known as messenger and messenger, is a herald. In the pre-Qin period, there were several envoys in the history of official administration in the State of Qin, who were responsible for the long-distance delivery of imperial edicts, imperial edicts, court announcements and military orders. In the Han dynasty, the Qin system was followed, and there were also metaphors of official positions, with the same responsibility and more soldiers than peace. It is recorded in Historical Records that in the early Han Dynasty, after the death of the Empress Dowager, on July 8, BC 180, Guan Ying, the founding star of the Western Han Dynasty, immediately stationed 100,000 troops in Xingyang, "sending envoys to the princes such as the King of Qi", waiting for an opportunity to change the plot of the Lu family to seize the Han throne, that is, to rise up and punish them. After that, Qiu Zhou Bo and Prime Minister Chen Ping worked in the palace. Later, under the order of Liu Fei, king of Qi, "to (the 27th day of the eighth lunar month), kill and kill Lu Kui, and learn to capture men and women." In the historical event of "the imperial court destroyed Lu" in the Han Dynasty, the "emissary" sent by General Guan Ying was the herald who contacted other governors and ministers. Before Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, he always used the official titles of Yu Shi, Shiyu and Yuling, and changed his name to Chang Shi Ling in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which ruled for several long history. Among the descendants of Yu Shi are Yu Shi and Yu Ling. And those who call their surnames by their ancestral official positions have been passed down from generation to generation.

4. From the surname.

Originated from Yu's family, from Yu's family, a descendant of the noble family of Zheng in the Spring and Autumn Period, it belongs to the phonetic change and the wrong surname. It is recorded in the historical book "The History of Taoism": "There is a Yu family after Zheng, which is a metaphor." There is also a record in the history book "Tongzhilue Clan Brief": "Today, the Yu family is mostly Yu family". The transformation of Yu family and Yu family to Yu family began in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The ancestor was Yu Meng, the satrap of Cangwu. Yu and Yu are similar in shape, and their pronunciation is also confused. The word Yu is four strokes less than the word Yu (referring to traditional Chinese characters), so it was changed to Yu Jia. According to the historical records: "Yu Meng, the word arrogant grandson, was later Han Chinese, because Han and Emperor Yongyuan Chou (AD 89) were promoted to Cangwu Prefecture, and they were innocent officials, which the county called. Changing the surname to Yu is the ancestor of Yu. " It was not until the Eastern Jin Dynasty that all the descendants of Yu Meng changed their surnames to Yu in the Han Dynasty, and the ethnic group made a Qufu order and wrote Xihe Collection. He is also a descendant of Yu Meng. Yugui was later changed to Yugui. In addition, many books on surnames today are based on the description of clan in Tongzhilue, and come to the conclusion that "after Yugui was changed to Yugui, there is no Yu Shi in the world"-this conclusion is very wrong! In Changsha, Zhangjiajie and Hengyang in Hunan Province, Qujing and Diqing in Yunnan Province, and Yunlin County in Taiwan Province Province, there are still many Yu clan members, all of whom are descendants of Yu Meng. Therefore, in the study of surnames, it is forbidden to "follow suit" and never take the results of "sampling survey" as a conclusion.

5. Originated from Xianbei nationality, it belongs to Han culture and changed its surname to surname.

The history book "Surname Brain" records the Fen family: "Yu Fen, Yi surname, Xianbei tribe." In fact, the Xianbei Yufen clan originated from a Brahmin, who came from the Gushan Qiang tribe who lived in the northwest during the Qin and Han Dynasties. There are few records about it in the history books. It once belonged to the Huns, and after the Huns were defeated by Liu Che, the Emperor Gaozu, this clan tribe was nomadic in the northern region. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, after Tuoba Xianbei, headed by Tuoba powder, moved to the former Xiongnu homeland, it occupied a vast land of 12,000 miles from east to west and 7,000 miles from north to south. Because Tuoba GUI led the migration, he made great contributions and enjoyed great prestige among the tribes. Tuoba Liwei, the son of Tuoba GUI, was the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 650). He gradually annexed other Xianbei tribes and local ethnic tribes, and then annexed Lu Wu headquarters. From then on, Tuoba Liwei became the commander-in-chief of 200,000 cavalry and established Wuyuan (now Wuyuan, Inner Mongolia). During this period, the Brahmins of Yuqiangshan were incorporated into Xianbei, and Longxi was led by adult Xianbei people. In 258 AD, TaBaLiWei moved the capital to Lesheng (now Hohhot and Linger in Inner Mongolia). In order to show his great strength, he sacrificed to heaven at Le Sheng in April of that year. The adults all came to help with the sacrifice, but only the whites couldn't wait. So TaBaLi great anger, killed the white department's adult, the ministries dare not take it. From then on, Tuoba Department gained the command of Xianbei Department in Northwest China and the hereditary right of the Grand Chief. Since then, the tribe of the Brahman clan of Shanqiang has gradually merged into the Xianbei nationality and moved to the Fenhe River valley in Shanxi Province, taking the name of the old tribe as its surname and calling it Yu Fen's. After Emperor Tuoba Hong, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty came to power, he moved his capital from Pingcheng (now Datong, Shanxi) to Luoyang (now Luoyang, Henan) in the 19th and 20th years of Taihe (AD 495-496), so that Xianbei forces occupied the Central Plains and unified the northern part of China, and then vigorously promoted the policy of sinicization reform. In this process, the clan split into Xianbei ministries again and changed to Yu clan.

6. Originated from other ethnic minorities, it belongs to Chinese culture and changed its surname to surname.

Today, Miao, Dong, Yi, Tujia, Tibetan, Dai and other ethnic groups all have members of the Yu clan, and their sources are mostly from the detention policy and the movement of changing the land to the flow promoted by the central government in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and passed down from generation to generation. Detailed information will be published by the author after further textual research. Ancestors of surnames: Yu Biao, Yu Zun and Yu Meng.
