The origin of Guan

The origin of Guan family is Anyi's distinguished family background.

This venerable surname has a splendid family background. Their ancestors were Guan Longfeng, the prime minister at the end of the Xia Dynasty. This is clearly recorded in the book Origin of Surnames, which goes like this: "After Chen Xia closed the dragon and phoenix, he looked out of the East China Sea in Longxi."

People familiar with history must know Guan Longfeng, the ancestor of Guan family, who was a famous saint in the late Xia Dynasty. It is said that Xia Jie was dissolute at that time, such as "making a pool of wine and drinking all night". At this time, there is no doubt that it is rape in court. 169 When he was in power, Zhong Liang sheltered him, but Guan Fenglong was loyal and often cited Huang Tu to remonstrate, but he refused to go. It is conceivable that "advice when most people are least heeded" is an inevitable consequence. Xia Jie not only refused to listen to his good words, but also burned Huang Tu and brutally imprisoned and killed Guan Longfeng, leaving Guan Longfeng's loyalty to shine forever.

According to historical records, in BC 1767, Xia Jie's captive killed Guan Longfeng. In other words, the Guan family not only originated from such an eternal perfect figure, but also has a long history of more than 3740 years, so it is most qualified to be proud of its predecessors.

The territory of the Xia Dynasty, including the Yellow River and Yangtze River basins and the land of Liaoning Province now, is located in Anyi, which is now the northern part of Xia County, Shanxi Province. According to legend, Guan Longfeng, the ancestor of Guan family, was an righteous man at that time. In other words, the birthplace of Guan Jia is here.

The Qianlong family and the Guan family

However, after the reunification of Qin and Han Dynasties, this ancient and glorious family continued to flourish in its hometown in Shanxi. For example, Guan Yu, who was famous in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of Han Dynasty, was a Xie Xianren in Shaanxi at that time. On the other hand, they opened up a new world in Gansu. Therefore, many Guan families around the world have inherited the surname of "Longxi".

For a long time, people have always thought that Guan's lineage is Guan Longfeng, a saint in the late summer. However, among the scholars of surnames in past dynasties, some people think that the ancestor of Guan Jia should be "Dragon yu long" rather than Guan Longfeng; This situation can really be said to be a word difference, a thousand miles away. Because the so-called "Kai Long Xing" family should be the ancients more than 4,200 years ago. If the Guan family is really descended from the family, then their history is even longer.

Guanyin and Guan family

The so-called "Qianlong Family" and "Zuo Zhuan" have detailed introductions: "Was there in the past? An Shu has a descendant named Dongfu, who is really a good dragon serving Shun Di. Shun gave him the surname Dong Shi and called him the dragon. "

In addition, it is said that in the "Guanyin" guarding Guan in ancient times, some people took Guan as their surname. For example, the book "Pass" records "After Yin was ordered". According to the records in "Guoyu", the so-called Guanyin, also known as Guan Ling, was an official position in the pre-Qin period. So this Guan family has a history of more than 2400 years, and it's a long time ago. It is said that this Guan family mainly thrives at the junction of Shandong and Jiangsu. Therefore, some people in Guanjia also watch the East China Sea.

Inheriting the glorious tradition of the ancestor Guan Longfeng, the performance of the Guan family in history is really excellent, and the well-known Guan Di Guan Yu is one of the best.
