The legend of the origin of the surname Shen

According to the reputation of the Shen family and their Recalling the records of the now-lost ethnic documents: the surname of God comes from the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty. When Taizu of the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, many Han people in various places who had been oppressed and discriminated against by the Mongolian ruling class for a long time wanted to vent their anger and He vented his grievances and took excessive revenge, and in turn killed the "Tatars" (the name for the Mongols and Semu people).

A Mongolian family fled to Dantu Nan Township at night during the robbery and hid in a ruined temple shrine on a barren mountain, and survived. After the situation stabilized, the man and his family believed that it was all thanks to the "divine blessing".

I didn’t dare to use my original Mongolian surname; and in addition, I had to comply with the Ming Taizu’s edict that “all Mongols and Semu people in the interior should use Han surnames”, so I changed my surname to “Shen”. He changed his name to "Shen Taiyi" and claimed to be a descendant of the Shennong family. The descendants of the Shen family have been reproducing for more than 600 years and have settled in Donggou Village for 30 generations.

Currently, Donggou Village has a family history. It has become one of the few Shenjia villages in the country. The contemporary materials physicist and Professor Shen Chengfu of Fudan University is a descendant of the Sanshan Shen family. p>
