Time has traveled for more than 2500 years. Where do the descendants of Lutz live now? According to research, there are many descendants in Suzhou, and shengze town in Wujiang is Zhong's scattered center. What is more noteworthy is that 70% of the population of more than 400,000 Zhong surnames originated from Zhongji and his two younger brothers who settled in Suzhou during the Southern Song Dynasty. Recently, the descendants of Luz who lived and worked in Suzhou got together for the first time. While cherishing the memory of their common ancestor Luz, they shared the affection that blood is thicker than water for more than 2,500 years.

/kloc-One afternoon in August, 2008, Zhong, who was a family more than 2,500 years ago, got together for the first time in Suzhou. Attending the party were not only Suzhou people with Zhong surname from downtown, Wujiang, Changshu and Zhangjiagang, but also people with Zhong surname working in Suzhou from other places.

According to the organizers Zhong Hua, Zhong Jianwei, Zhong Qiaonan and Zhong, Zhong's surname originated from Zhong You, a disciple of Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period, and now there are more than 400,000 descendants all over the country. At present, it is basically found that there are Zhong clan people in about 108 counties (cities). Now there are not only clansmen's associations, enterprise entrepreneurs' associations, Zhong Zi History Research Association, but also "Huaxia Zhongshi Net". In April this year, representatives from all over the country also held a genealogy update meeting in Jiangsu Haixun Group in Hai 'an County to start the genealogy update work in an all-round way. The Zhong family, who lives and works in Suzhou, has also established a QQ group. The party was organized under this background. Zhong Jianwei told reporters that Zhong You had a great influence on later generations, and he was named as a tribute to Hanoi. In the ninth year of Jiajing of Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhong You was honored as "sage Zhongzi". The Zhong family also has a glorious history. According to genealogy records, after reading the book Genealogy written by Yuan, Emperor Taizong praised it on the third day of July in the eighth year of Zhenguan: "I see all kinds of genealogy, and Zhong is the oldest, from Xuanyuan to. Yu! A generation of sages, there are few left. "

Zhong Zhaoren of Huai 'an is a descendant of Luz 7 1 generation. After learning about this party on the Internet, he made a special trip to Suzhou. According to him, there are many people surnamed Zhong in Suzhou. In the second year of Jianyan in the Southern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1 128), Zhong's parents, the 49th grandson Zhong You and his younger brothers Zhong You (No.Baian) and Zhong Qi (without Lu 'an), who were originally from Jining, went south with Kong Duanyou, the duke of Confucius' 48th grandson feast. Zhong Gene was promoted to the magistrate of Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, and participated in the deliberation of the appeasement department of Jiangnan East Road. Shaoxing 15 (1 145), taught bachelor as secretary, and took control of the military training school on August 16. Settled in the tidal flat of Shanziwei, shengze town, Wujiang, and was buried in the north bank of Pufu Bridge at Xiaokouwei. There used to be a Luzi Temple, which was approved by Song Gaozong and covered an area of 100 mu. Now, 70% of the people surnamed Zhong in China are descendants of the three brothers Zhong Ji. At the end of Song Dynasty and the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, Sun Zhongde, the 5th1generation from Jining, moved to Changshu. In addition, many people named Zhong have settled in the inclined pond of the industrial park.

Zhong You, born in 542 BC, was born in Bianyi, Lu, now Xiaobianqiao, Zhongcun Town, Pingyi County, Shandong Province (according to legend, Bianqiao Village, Quanlin Town, surabaya county). Although he was born in Gubian Post and his descendants were buried in Jining, Suzhou is an important "resting place" for the Zhong family and an important starting point for its development and growth.

Zhong Qiaonan said that the Zhong clan who stayed in Wujiang has made outstanding contributions to the economic development and cultural prosperity of Wujiang and shengze town. It is particularly worth mentioning that the Shengze Nakasone Yasuhiro family has been working hard from the 64th generation Zhong Guanxiong to the 73rd generation Zhong Guanxiong. In 280 years, they have compiled three kinds of holy lake records. Some people call it "for more than 200 years since Emperor Shengze, all the chroniclers of the past dynasties were the bells". The famous "King of Steel" and Chairman of the Foundation, Mr. Wang, was born in a noble family of Zhong family in shengze town. With the renewal of Zhong's genealogy, Zhong's genealogy in shengze town, Wujiang City, the holy land of Zhong's genealogy, will surely become the focus of more than 400,000 descendants of Zhong Zilu.

Zhong Zhong, the 73rd generation descendant who attended the party, said that the most precious spirit is filial piety, loyalty, courage and faith. Holding such a party can not only learn the history and culture of Zhong, but also carry forward the spirit of our ancestors and enhance our feelings. He also said: "Our ancestors played an important role in history and influenced generations. This is not only the pride of our future generations, but also an example for us to learn. I hope that our future generations can do their best in the new era and make due contributions to society. "
