The origin of the Shaw family

Shao surname, "Surname Source Rhyme Spectrum" says "Gong? After that. " What about Zhao Gong? Who is it? How did Shao's surname come into being? According to historical records, Yan Zhaogong family, Zhao Gong? He was a minister in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, "with the same surname as Zhou, surnamed Ji", that is, a branch of Zhou. Because the fief was in Zhao (Shaoyinshao, now southwest of Qishan, Shaanxi), it was called or. He helped Zhou Wuwang destroy the business, was sealed in Beiyan, and established the Yan State. However, he sent his eldest son to manage the Yan State, and he remained in Haojing (now near Gaocun, northwest of Chang 'an County, Shaanxi Province). In Zhou Chengwang, Zhao Gong served as Taibao, one of the three princes of the Zhou Dynasty (Taishi and Taibao), and was ruled by Zhou Gongdan in Shaanxi (now Shanxian County, Henan Province). "Since Shaanxi West, I have called the princess; From Shaanxi in the east, Princess Zhou ". He often visited villages and towns and was in charge of prison affairs under Gan Tang tree. Under his rule, "from Hou Bo to Shu Ren, everyone has his place without any dereliction of duty". There is a record of "Gan Tang" in the poem "Zhao Nan", and then "Zhaotang" is used as an allusion to celebrate the prosperity of the official career. According to the dialectics of ancient and modern surnames, Sun Mu and Jian Gongying, the descendants of Wang Qingshi, attacked jazz. Zhao Gong is a hereditary descendant, who was always an official in charge of state affairs in the Zhou Dynasty. People have different views on Zhou Liwang's cruelty. Mu once advised him that "it is better to guard against the mouth of others than to guard against the mouth of others", but Li, the king of Qi, did not listen. In 84 1 BC, the people of China revolted and fled, and asked Mu to hide the prince in his home, and was besieged by the people of China. He died with his son for the prince. After Li's death, he succeeded to Jingdi, that is. According to Tongzhi Genealogy, after Zhou Ping and Dong Wang moved to Luoyi, Zhao Gong was not granted fief in the prince of Wu. Wu Wang is located in Yuan Shao Township, Jiyuan City, Henan Province, at the southwest foot of Wu Wang, 63 kilometers west of Hengshan Mountain and 42 kilometers east of Jiyuan City, so Ci Hai was marked as "East of Yuanqu County, Shanxi Province". The descendants of Zhao Gong are scattered in many places in Shaanxi and Henan today. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the fief was the surname, that is, Zhao; During the Warring States Period, the Zhao family, who lived in the present-day areas of Runan and Anyang in Henan Province, added "ear" beside the word Zhao to avoid things, forming the Shaw family. This is what the imperial clan Bocao said: "Zhao Shao, whose surname is Chunqiuben, then split in two." The families of Runan and Anyang all follow the city. "There is another saying about the time when the surname was changed to Shaw, that is, Yuan He Shi Bian quoted the Shaw family in Anyang:" After the letter, Qingzhou was a secretariat, and the first exemption was added to the Shaw family. Zhang Shu, a Qing Dynasty man, said in the Origin of Surnames: "However, the Book of Jizhong exists, not by Shao." . "Jizhong Book" refers to the bamboo book in the tomb of Wei Xiangwang (or the tomb of King Yan Anli) during the Warring States Period, which was stolen by unidentified people in Jixian County during the reign of Emperor Wu of Jin. This shows that the surname Shao existed in the Warring States period, not from the descendants of courtiers in the Western Han Dynasty. Because Zhao and Shao Ben have the same surname, the distinction between these two words was not very strict in the early days. The ancients sometimes used each other, for example? It is called Mu Gong, and it is undoubtedly called the call. Yuan He's surname is written as "Shao"; Most of the characters in other ancient books around the Han Dynasty were Zhao's, and Shao's since the Three Kingdoms period, but Zhao's basically disappeared. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Shao Hu lived in the State of Qi (now the northeast of Shandong Province), and Gong Zijiu was the son of Guan Zhong. During the Qin Dynasty, Guangling (now the northwest of Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province) was called Ping, and was named the Hou of Dongling. After Qin's death, his family was poor and he planted melons in the east of Chang 'an. The melons he planted were called Dongling melons. At the end of Qin Dynasty, Europe was called, and Liu Bang rebelled in Yu Pei (now Peixian East, Jiangsu Province). In the Western Han Dynasty, Shouchun of Jiujiang (now Shouxian County, Anhui Province) was called a letter minister. At that time, Yuan Di was the prefect of Nanyang, built dozens of canals and dams, and irrigated more than 30,000 hectares of land for the benefit of the people. He was honored as "Hufu" and later served as a Shaofu. Called the son of the letter minister to call for training, learn Korean poetry, pass books, and when Zhang Di entered the DPRK to teach the kings' classics in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The above information reflects Zhao's previous distribution and activities in the three countries. In the Three Kingdoms, Wei Youtai was born in Dunn Shaw, Henan (the county was in the northeast of Luoyang, Henan); Shao Chou, an upright Wu man. Xu Shao, a native of Anyang in Jin Dynasty, was well versed in history and astronomy.

Shao Chuchang, a captain of the Tang Dynasty, was a native of Min County (now Fuzhou, Fujian), and Shao, who was proficient in classics and history, was also a native of Wengyuan (now northwest of Wengyuan, Guangdong). It can be seen that from the Three Kingdoms to the Tang Dynasty, Xiao continued to develop in today's Henan, and there were also immigrants from south to north. During the Song and Ming Dynasties, Shao was also distributed in some places in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other provinces, and it was more widely distributed from Qing Dynasty to modern times. Since the Qing Dynasty, some Xiao moved to Taiwan Province Province, and later some moved overseas.
