[Edit this paragraph] Tracing the roots

There are three sources of the Chinese surname: 1. It comes from the surname Zi. According to "Manuscripts on the Words and Deeds of Mingxian Clan", "Diagnosis of Ancient and Modern Surname Books", "Guangyun" and "Ciyuan", the son of Dai Gongzheng of the Song Dynasty was Kao's father. His ruler Shang Gong and his great minister Kong Fu bribed Qi, Qin, Lu, and Zheng with generous bribes, but they could not retaliate, so they made the prime minister Song Gong, who established himself as the Hua family. In ancient times, there was no one who was given a clan after birth. He only established his own surname based on a temporary mistake, and later generations followed it. One theory is that the governor's father, Zheng Kao, collected food from China (the old city is in the north of Xinzheng, Henan), and later took Yi as his surname. 2. Comes from the surname Si. According to "A Survey of Surnames", Xia Zhongkang was granted the title of Hua Clan in Huashan. 3. From other tribes. The surname Aixinjueluo of the Eight Banners of Manchuria in the Qing Dynasty was later changed to the Chinese surname; the leader of the 12 Yi tribes in the Qingling dynasty surrendered in the 13th year of Jiaqing, and changed his surname to Zhumu in the 16th year of the reign of Jiaqing; the Yi people in Bajiaogou had the Chinese surname; The Han surname of the Huaxi Har family is Hua; today the Manchu, Mongolian, Hui and other ethnic groups have this surname. ?

Then he killed Duke Shang of the Song Dynasty without doing anything, and appointed his son Feng as Duke Zhuang of Song Dynasty, and appointed himself as prime minister. . Later, Governor Hua established himself as the surname Hua, and later generations of descendants called him surnamed Hua, and respected Governor Hua as the ancestor of the surname. . In the early Ming Dynasty, the Shanxi Hua surname was one of the surnames of the immigrants from Hongdong Dahuai tree, and was divided into Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places.
