"The origin of the bag"

According to Tongzhi Genealogy, Bao's family origin comes from the surname Mi after Shen, a doctor of the State of Chu. According to Yuan He's textual research, Shen was a doctor in the State of Chu in the late Spring and Autumn Period and a descendant of Mao. This man is of high moral character and firm belief. He and Wu Zixu are good friends. At that time, Wu Zixu fled to the State of Wu because his father was killed, and helped the State of Wu attack the State of Chu in the fifteenth year of King Zhao of Chu (506 BC). Shen went to Qin for help, but Qin Aigong couldn't make up his mind whether to send troops. Shen cried for seven days to save Chu, and Qin Aigong was finally moved by his sincerity and sent troops to Chu. After the restoration of Chu, Shen received a generous reward, but he refused to give it and hid in the mountains. Later, his descendants took "Bao" as their surname and were called Bao.
