Ji Zha of Taibo 19 ceded land for three times, fled and returned to Yanling, which is Jiangyin and Danyang in Jiangsu today. In 547 BC, Wu Wangyu officially conferred the title of Yanling as a food city, and his family moved to Yanling. Because of the high name of the founding of the country, it was sealed in Yanling, and its descendants called themselves Wu in Yanling, which is still in use today and respects Wu Weizu.
After the downfall of Wu, his second son defected to Qi. His son Wu came to Lu again and worshipped him as his relative. The descendants of Wu scattered between Qilu and formed a huge branch. The population of Wu in Yanling is 30 million, accounting for more than 80% of the population of Wu in China, and it is the largest vein of Wu. According to China Wu's Examination, nearly half of the Wu family members are descendants of the second son Wu.
From the Wu Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, Wu lived in Xin 'an and belonged to the Wu family in Xin 'an. The area is named after Xin 'anjiang, including Huangshan City, Shexian County and Xiuning County. During the Tang and Wu Dynasties, Wu lived in seclusion from his hometown in Zhangzhou at the southern foot of Shishe Mountain (Xiuning Phoenix Mountain), and his descendants lived in Yan. At the beginning of Long Zhongxing (705), Shao Wei was highly valued, and the official was the left satrap. Since then, the Wu family in Xin 'an has evolved into a school of Wu, which is called "Zuotai Wu family" and takes Wu as its ancestor.
In the first year of Tang Dynasty (758), Wu Jun, the fourth grandson of Wu, moved from Fenghuang Mountain to the village because of the flood. He is the ancestor and is called Shi Lingwu. Shiling Village is located 8 kilometers east of Xiuning County, Anhui Province. Because of its small village area, it has moved abroad for generations. At present, there are only over 50 households in Shiling Village, 190 people, of which more than half are surnamed Wu.
In the third year of Ganyou in the later Han Dynasty (950), Wu Yao, the tenth grandson of Wu Jun, died early, and the Confucian king moved to Huangyuan with his two sons, and his descendants flourished. Wu Yao is the ancestor of this branch. Huangyuan Village is located 43 kilometers east of Xiuning City, and now it is divided into three villages: upper, middle and lower, among which Wu is the most. There are about 200 households in Shangcun, with more than 600 people, and the surname of Wu accounts for more than one third. Now it has spread to the 38th generation of Yao Gong.
In the third year of Yuan Dynasty (1335), the 13th Wu Yao and Sun Wuchuan moved to Dadu (now Beijing) from Huangyuan, Xiuning, and served as an envoy of the Hanlin Academy, ranking as Yuan Wailang. In the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1368), Xu Da, a general of the Ming Dynasty, conquered Dadu and the imperial court was destroyed. Wuchuan and his people moved to Gan 'an County, lived in the south gate, worked in agriculture, and handed down poems and books. In the second year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty (1404), the emperor issued a letter to supplement the population of Gyeonggi area. At that time, Wu Chuanzhi's six grandchildren, except Shi Yi, stayed in Qian 'an, while Shi An, Shi Ai, Shi Zhi and Wang Shi moved south to Haifeng and Yanshan. When Shi Bao is repairing the city and living in Wen 'an, he will take photos to Haifeng. From then on, a family of brothers scattered in the border between Qiyan and Bohai Sea and established their own villages. Later, Wu Shiyi's eldest son and second son moved into Yanshan Village, forming six branches of Wu Haifeng. The Wu family of Haifeng has been passed down to the 25th generation, with an estimated population of about 80,000, with footprints all over the country.
