Now there is a saying that there were no More Han Chinese after the Han Dynasty. Briefly introduced, the predecessor of the Han nationality is the Huaxia ethnic group. The once powerful Huaxia clan gradually grew into a powerful nation by annexing the Sifang Barbarians, but at this time the bloodline was no longer pure, so in the Han Dynasty, a new Han nationality appeared.
As a country formed by the pure Han nationality, the Han Dynasty showed strong national strength and vitality, and deservedly the first powerful country at that time, but unfortunately, after a fierce battle, it was replaced by the Jin Dynasty.
Some people in the Jin Dynasty understood it as the last pure Han regime, because after the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the Wuhu Chaohua, the Han Dynasty crossed south, and the Northern Han people were tragically exterminated.
At this time, the northern Han ethnic group was less than 3 million people, even inferior to some large ethnic minorities, after the confrontation between the north and the south, in the end, the southern and northern Sui Dynasty with Xianbei blood unified, so far, there is no pure Han dynasty.
Characteristics of a humble person
Speaking of Xianbei, this is the second nomadic people to rise on the Mongolian plateau after the Xiongnu, and it can be said that it is the nomadic people who had the greatest influence on China during the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The history of Xianbei can be traced back to the Eastern Hu at the time of the Qin and Han Dynasties.
After Donghu was defeated by the Xiongnu, it had to shrink to Wuhuan Mountain and Xianbei Mountain, and after iterative development, they all used the mountain as a clan name, and by the time Xianbei rose again, the Xiongnu had been crippled by the Han Dynasty, and Xianbei took the opportunity to occupy the Mongolian steppe.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Xianbei was attached to Cao Wei, and after the Wuhu 16 kingdoms in the Central Plains, the Xianbei people formed the Northern Wei regime and unified the north in 439, although it later split into Eastern Wei and Western Wei, and eventually evolved into the Sui Dynasty, but its bloodline roots were all Xianbei.
It is also in this process that the Xianbei people continue to blend with the Han people to learn culture, and gradually be integrated by the Han people, and from this time on, the blood of the Han people is mixed with the genes of the Xianbei people.
With the continuous development of history, the Xianbei people have gradually formed many interest groups, which have influenced the direction of Chinese history and hundreds of years, such as the Guanlong Group represented by Li Shimin. This group even influenced the Sui and Tang dynasties.
Li Shimin's father Li Yuan was actually a cousin of the Sui Emperor, that is to say, no matter how the general situation in the world changed at that time, for the Guan Long Clique, it was nothing more than the difference between changing a descendant to become an emperor, because Li Shimin's mother was a Xianbei person, Li Shimin naturally carried the blood of the Xianbei people.
Characteristics of humble people?
According to rumors, once Li Shimin took off his shoes and found that his toes were two pieces of armor, so he began to conduct a census in the palace, and finally found that more than half of the people were similar to himself, and what was surprising was that these people were xianbei tribes.
Many people today will find that on their small toes, the nail cap is divided into two or three petals, this situation, in medicine, is called flap nails, some people appear when they are young, and some people appear when they grow up, and this feature coincides with the ancient Xianbei people.
There is a saying that the Xianbei people were originally a horse people, because of the long-term need to stay on the horse, the small toes were rubbed, more serious than other toes, after a long time, due to natural selection, more and more people in the entire group became two halves of toenails.
With the gradual development of science, more and more data show that the number and probability of people with two toenails in half are widely distributed throughout the country, and the number and probability of people with two pieces of toenails in the population of the north and south are roughly equal.
How could the ancient Xianbei people, who were only a minority nationality, reach such a quantitative scale today, from this point of view, the two pieces of toenails are not unique to the Xianbei people. With the study of biology, genetics and other disciplines, the claim that two pieces of toenails are humble people cannot be strongly supported.
In fact, since its birth, the Chinese nation has been constantly facing mergers and acquisitions, in order to vigorously develop the population to accept and tolerate people of other nationalities, it is also a common thing, with the long development process, each generation will accept a lot of blood from all over the world.
According to records, in the history of the Han people, there were three relatively large-scale crowns in the south, the most well-known two times are the difficulty of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the southern Song Dynasty, the dynastic regime wrapped up a huge population to develop to the south, and the local ethnic groups in the south for a wide range of intermarriage, so it is also possible that the two toes are the symbol of the pure Han people.
Speaking of mass migration, it can actually involve another theory of the origin of the two-lobed toenails.
Fleeing
The Ming Dynasty was the last Han Dynasty in Chinese history, and at the beginning of its establishment, in the face of the problems caused by the loss of domestic economic population caused by years of war, the imperial court gave a solution, that is, to migrate from other places, which gave birth to the famous Shanxi Hongdong Big Elm Tree Migration.
There are not many people who are really willing to leave their homeland, so the Ming Dynasty government gathered people who were unwilling to move away and forcibly forced them on the road.
In order to prevent these people from fleeing, they cut their little toes in half with a knife, which is said to have become a kind of evidence that these people later returned to their ancestors to verify their identity. Some people think that whoever has two halves of toe nails is the person who migrated from Shanxi in those years, the purest Han Chinese, and is proud of it.
For this legend, nature is not credible, and the physical trauma caused by trauma cannot improve the genetic sequence in the genetic genes, that is, the shape created by him cutting off the small toe with a knife cannot be inherited by future generations.
Another point is that today, the Ming Dynasty is less than 600 years old, and the people with so many two pieces of toenails in the north and south of the great river are not all Shanxi people? This is naturally impossible.
In summary, the two pieces of toenails cannot be used as a sign of a group that has disappeared, nor can it be seen as an identification method for the Shanxi Big Yushu people, because other ethnic groups will also appear in this situation.
With the continuous development of the times, 56 ethnic groups have gradually blended, the estrangement between each other has gradually disappeared, and to this day, why should everyone care whether they are ancient ethnic minorities evolved, as long as you recognize that you are the sons and daughters of China, then everyone is a close family.
And for those who have two pieces of armor, have concerns, worry about what problems they have, in fact, they can also put their minds at ease, this is just a unique genetic trait, as long as it does not affect normal activities, then it is not necessary to pay attention.
