Originated from the surname Zi, from Zhong, a descendant of the royal family of Yin Shang Dynasty. Belongs to the country name and city name. 1 1 century BC, in the early years of the western Zhou dynasty, Ji Zi was given a surname in Korea after Zhou Wuwang destroyed the business. Ji Zi, the uncle of Zhou Wang, the last monarch of Shang Dynasty, was named Zi Xuyu. He was a teacher from official to father, that is, a teacher. His fief was in Jipan (now Taigu, Shanxi), which was called "Ji Zi" in history. According to the literature records such as "Popular Meaning" and "Dialectics of Ancient and Modern Surnames", he is a descendant of the Shang Dynasty, his ancestor's surname is Zhou Wang of Shang Dynasty, and his uncle's name is Yu Xu. At the end of Shang Dynasty, Zhou Wang's uncle Yu Xu was named Ji Zi (the place name of Basket, the son of Viscount). After Ji Zi protested against Zhou Wang's debauchery, Zhou Wang not only refused to listen, but monitored him. After Zhou Wuwang destroyed the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the Zhou Dynasty was established, and the descendants of Ji Zi were awarded the title of Xiandi, so they took Xianzi as their surname and became "Shixian". Huang Bei, a wise fool, also records that the wise fool is a descendant of Ji Zi: "There are Rocky Mountains, fresh water flows out, and the south flows into the flood. Feishui should be the place where Feiguo lives, with fresh water (now Zhengding, Hebei). Xianyu family is named after fresh water, and its descendants are called Xianyu. When he led people to the Korean peninsula, Ji Mountain stayed in the middle, but Hou Ji Yin gave birth to Shen, and Shen food was collected in Xianyu (ancient Yuyang, now Beiwu Town, Shunyi, Beijing). Taking the place name as his surname, he was called Xianyu Shen, also known as Xianyu Shen and Xianyu Shen. Among the descendants of Xianyu Shen, there are many people whose surnames are Juyi, namely Xianyu and Xianyu. Later, in the Qin Dynasty, they avoided Qin Shihuang's taboo on the word "Yu" and changed the homophonic word to "Xian Yu", which was passed down from generation to generation and was also one of the very old surnames.

After the imperial clan, many provincial names were changed to Xian, Yu, Yu, Yu and other single surnames, and some were named Li by the imperial court because of their meritorious service, and they all respected Xian as their ancestors.
