The ancestor who got the surname
Bao Shuya. The son of Sun Jingshu, a descendant of Xia Yu, he was a senior official in the state of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period. His father Jingshu was granted the title of Bao Shuya, and Shuya began to take the title as his surname, called Bao Shuya. Shuya had been friendly with Guan Zhong when he was young. Guan Zhong's family was poor and his mother was old, so he often provided financial aid, and they became a close friend. When Duke Xiang was in chaos, Guan Zhong followed his son Jiu to Lu, and he followed his son Xiaobai to Ju. When Duke Xiang was killed, Xiaobai returned to the country with internal aid and was appointed Lord of Qi. He was proposed to be the Shangqing. He urged Duke Huan to release the imprisoned Guan Zhong, put him in his place, and make him his wife. Guan Bao's friendship has been passed down from generation to generation. The descendants of the surname Bao also respect this virtuous ancestor of the surname Bao as their ancestor.
Migration distribution
The surname Bao originated from Licheng, Shandong today. The descendants of Bao Shuya inherited the hereditary position of minister in Qi State. Among them, the great-great-grandson Bao Qian (Bao Zhuangzi) and Bao Shuya are found in the historical records. Wenzi, Baosu, and their descendant Baojiao lived in seclusion in the capital of Zhou Dynasty (now Luoyang, Henan Province). At the beginning of the Warring States Period, after the Tian family succeeded the Qi Dynasty, some of their descendants fled to the areas between today's Hebei, Henan, Shandong, and Jiangsu. During the Han Dynasty, there were more and more people named Bao. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Bao Xuan was from Gaocheng, Bohai (now Yanshan, Hebei Province). He was later killed by Wang Mang. He had the foresight to avoid his eldest son Bao Yong and his second son Bao Sheng during his lifetime. Living in Tunliu, Shangdang (now part of Shanxi Province), Bao Yong's sons Bao Yu, Sun Baode, and great-great-grandson Bao Ang were all famous in the world, especially Bao Yu. He was as high as the prime minister and formed the basis for the formation of the Bao surname in Shangdang County. A solid foundation was laid. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were also Bao Hong and Bao Hui from Fufeng (now Xingping, Shaanxi Province), Bao You from Jingzhao Xinfeng (now Lintong, Shaanxi Province), Bao Jun from Jiujiang (now Fengyang, Anhui Province) in the early Eastern Han Dynasty... It shows that during the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Bao surname was already distributed in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and one branch entered Anhui. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Bao flourished in Shandong and Jiangsu. People with the Bao surname in the ancient Donghai County were prosperous and famous people emerged in large numbers. Bao Zhao, the Yuefu poet of the Southern Dynasties, was an outstanding representative of the Bao surname in this county. Since this county with the surname Bao was close to Nanjing, the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Southern Dynasty, he entered present-day Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hubei and other places due to his official career and flight. At this time, the surname Bao, which flourished in Shangdang, Taishan, and Henan counties, also showed a large number of people and famous people. It prospered as the surname Bao in Shangdang, Taishan, and Henan counties. The revolution from the late Tang Dynasty to the Five Dynasties led to the Bao surname to settle down in present-day Jiangxi, Hunan, Sichuan and other places. During the Song Dynasty, the development of the Bao surname showed new characteristics. In addition to flourishing in Shandong, the Bao surname that flourished in southern provinces such as Anhui, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang was very eye-catching, and celebrities emerged in large numbers. The revolution in the early and late Yuan Dynasty caused people with the Bao surname to migrate to Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi and other places. In the early Ming Dynasty, the Shanxi Bao surname was one of the surnames of the people who migrated to Hongdong's big locust tree, and was moved to Anhui, Jiangsu, Hebei, Henan and other places.
After the mid-Ming Dynasty, the surname Bao entered Taiwan Province. During the Qing Dynasty, the surname Bao became more widely distributed. Today, the surname Bao is widely distributed across the country, especially in Qinghai, Jiangsu, Shandong, Hubei, Zhejiang and other provinces. The above five provinces account for about 70% of the Han population with the surname Bao in the country. The surname Bao is the 173rd surname in China today.

Allusions and interesting stories about the surname Bao
〖Er Bao Jiu〗
The uncle of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Liang, who was named King of Zhao, replaced him. The middle man, General Shu She, was returning from the funeral. As he entered the city gate, his car met the car of Zhang Han, the right man's general. Due to the narrow doorway, two cars cannot pass each other. Seeing that Zhang Han's car was blocking his way, Liu Liang scolded Zhang Han for backing up the car, and summoned Cen Zun, the lord of the clan, to scold him loudly, and asked him to kneel in front of his horse's head and kowtow to confess.
When Bao Shui, the captain of the Sili School, learned about this, he was very angry. He wrote a chapter to impeach Liu Liang, saying: "King Liu Liang of Zhao is a minister of the princes and vassals. He has been favored by the emperor and has entered the capital to wait for his response." He knew that Cen Zun, the lord of the family, was an official of the country and could not be insulted at will. However, he ignored the national law and insulted Cen Zun wantonly. He committed the crime of 'disrespect' and should be severely punished." Bao Yong's move made the courtiers cautious. Later, Bao Yong promoted Bao Hui, who had an upright personality and did not avoid rape, to be in charge of the capital.
Emperor Guangwu said to the people around him: "Your Majesty, you should hold your hands to avoid the two Bao." This sentence means that Bao Yong and Bao Hui are upright and strict in enforcing the law. They also dare to offend, so the noble relatives should quickly curb their illegal and disciplinary activities to avoid encountering these two people and suffering.
Later, people summarized this sentence as "Er Bao Jiu", which was used to praise law enforcers who are not afraid of power and dare to enforce the law.
