How many surnames have Shanxi Sophora japonica exiled in history?

Robinia pseudoacacia forest located in Hongtong County, Shanxi Province is a famous place to seek roots. Since the first Rooting Festival of Robinia pseudoacacia in Hongtong County was held in April 199 1, there have been large-scale root-seeking activities to worship ancestors every year. According to the records in Hongdong County Records and Dahuaishu Records, Shanxi was densely populated at that time, and the ruling class at that time prepared to emigrate to change this uneven population distribution. These areas, such as Hebei, Henan, Shandong and other places, experienced several wars in the Ming Dynasty, which caused the local innocent people, like leeks, to be affected by the war as soon as they settled down, causing a large number of population movements.

During the fifty years from Hongwu in Ming Dynasty to Yongle, the imperial court organized seven official immigration policies. These seven migrations involved as many as 18 provinces and about 500 counties, which can be said to be all over the country. However, most of these people went to Shandong, Hebei, Henan and Anhui. This means that many people's ancestors came from the big locust tree. Then, how many surnames did Shanxi Sophora japonica have in exile?

Although most immigrants from Hong Tong failed to return to their hometown, they firmly remembered the hometown of Sophora japonica and passed on the story of Sophora japonica to future generations. More than 600 years have passed since the early Ming Dynasty, and the ancient Sophora japonica in Han Dynasty has disappeared into the dust of history, while the third generation Sophora japonica, which grew with the same root, is lush and full of vitality. Hu Aixiang's descendants have spread all over the country 18 provinces, 500 counties, and some as far away as some countries and regions in Southeast Asia. Think about how many sad tears our ancestors shed when they left their hometown to help the elderly and bring up the young. May the pagoda tree take root forever and be heart-to-heart with compatriots at home and abroad!
