Is Shi surname a noble surname?

Shi comes from the descendant Ji surname. In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Chengwang named his uncle Kang Shu Wei Kangshu. Guo Wei was in the northeast of Qixian County, Henan Province, and moved the capital three times later, and then moved to Cao, Chuqiu and Diqiu to the east, all between hua county and Puyang in northern Henan. At that time, Sun Tuan, the grandson of Wei Jingbo, the grandson of Wei Kangshu VI, also called Shi Tuan, made great contributions to Wei Li and was Wei's doctor. Later, he took the word as his surname. This Shi family has a history of more than 2700 years.
