There are countless outstanding people in the land of China, from the earliest group living to recommending tribal leaders and taking charge of the overall situation. In order to identify the leaders of different tribes, surnames came into being. After thousands of years of development, surnames have become very monotonous, but almost every big surname has had its shining moment. Only the surname "Wang" has had a large number of people for thousands of years, but it has never had a ruler. Today, Let’s analyze what the “curse” of this surname is!
As for the origin of the surname Wang, a more pertinent theory comes from the Zhou Dynasty - Ji Jin, the son of King Ling of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Ji Jin was appointed as the prince by his father at a very young age. In addition to his great efforts in training, Ji Jin lived up to expectations and stood out among his peers, especially in the flute ensemble.
A few years later, there was a sudden flood in the Zhou Kingdom and the people were displaced. King Ling of Zhou decided to use sand to block the mouth of the flood. However, Ji Jin felt that it was useless, so he bluntly said to his father in public: " Dayu used this method when he was controlling floods, but the effect was not ideal, so let's try another method." As a result, King Zhou Ling was furious, thinking that Ji Jin was trying to punish him and had no respect for his elders, so he demoted Ji Jin to a concubine. The unfortunate Ji Jin became depressed and unhappy, and died three years later at the age of seventeen, completely missing the throne.
Because Ji Jin was born into the royal family, Ji Jin's descendants changed their name to "king" out of anger and in order to clear their relationship with the Zhou Dynasty. The aforementioned king surname has never been given to a ruler, but there are many famous people like Wang Mang, Wang Zhaojun, Wang Wei, Wang Xizhi, etc. Because Wang Mang usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he was never recognized, so he could not be called emperor.
All in all, until now, the total number of people with the surname Wang has reached a terrifying 95 million, with the majority in the south. Experts said: "Judging from the structure of the character "王", it is destined that the Wang family cannot have an emperor. Why? Because like other surnames, such as Li and Zhu, there is always one vertical line at the beginning. On the other hand, the character "王" has three horizontal lines and one vertical line. The opportunity is completely sealed.”
And due to the spread of contemporary hot information, what was originally a very domineering surname has become a bit strange. For example, if someone asks you what your surname is, and you reply, My surname is Wang, then others will look at you with evil intentions. There are also jokes like "My neighbor Lao Wang is practicing waist training" that are widely circulated, making people think about the surname Wang!
