4. Derived from the name of the country, from the Western Liang State during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it belongs to the name of the country.
The State of Western Liang, from 555 to 587 AD, was a regime that emerged during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and its capital was built in Jiangling (present-day Jingzhou, Hubei), historically known as Later Liang.
In the first year of the Western Wei Gong Emperor Tuoba Kuo (554 AD), after the Western Wei army captured Jiangling and killed the Southern Liang State Liang Yuan Emperor Xiao Xuan, The Western Wei Gong Emperor established his subordinate Liang King Xiao Cha as The Liang Emperor the following year (555 AD), becoming a vassal emperor of the Western Wei regime.
Due to the small size of Western Liang, its territory was only 800 miles from Jiangling and its nearby counties, so it became a vassal state of Western Wei, Northern Zhou and Sui Dynasty. However, the Western Liang state has always regarded itself as the orthodox of the Southern Dynasty, so it has long been opposed to the Southern Dynasty Chen State. The Western Liang Kingdom is a highly cultured country because it inherits the culture of the former Southern Liang State.
In the Western Liang dynasty, Emperor Xuan of Liang, Emperor Xuan of Liang, Emperor Ming of Liang, Emperor Xiao of Liang, and Emperor Huizong of Liang, Emperor Xiao Ofe III, and in the seventh year of Emperor Yang Jiankai of Sui (587 AD), Emperor Wen of Sui deposed the Western Liang state system, and the State of Western Liang collapsed and existed for only thirty-three years.

5. Originating from the official position, from the Song Dynasty period of the official xixue official affairs, belongs to the official title as the clan. Xi Xuegongshi, originally an official position set up by the Later Zhou regime during the Five Dynasties period, belonged to Zhongshu Menxia Province, and later the Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin "Chen Qiao Mutiny" seized the Later Zhou regime, and after the establishment of the Northern Song Dynasty, five basic yamen were set up in Zhongshu Menxia Province, called the Five Officials' Room: one is the general room, also known as the Kongmu Room; the second is the official room, the third is the household room, the fourth is the military ceremony room, and the fifth is the execution room. These five departments handle all clerical matters.
In the third year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1070 AD), the Northern Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Huan xining re-established a "five-room official", and the general manager supervised the affairs of the five-room official, which was also known as "all check-rectification". To this end, in the five rooms, there are two "procuratorial affairs" in each of them, each in charge of the affairs of the house, referred to as "inspection and correction".
All the "checks" and "corrections" are filled by the Beijing officials, who have been selected by the emperor as the person to be filled, which is called "Study and Public Affairs", and then after being reviewed by the officials, assigned to the corresponding posts for probation, after the predecessors "Du Zheng" and "Check Zheng" leave office to succeed, then called "Du Zheng" or "Check". If the incumbent "Capital Correction" or "Correction" is in the midst of a major state affair and has not left his post (such as a large-scale war, a large-scale natural disaster, a sustained court civil strife, etc.), the poor "study and official affairs" have been on the post "probationary" and are not allowed to be transferred.
During the Reign of Song Yuanfeng (1078-1085 AD), Emperor Shenzong of Song carried out a major reform of the imperial court official system, known in history as the "Yuanfeng Reform System". During this period, the official titles of "Capital Correction" and "Correction" were abolished, and their functions were assigned to "Zhongshu Sheren", "Zhi Shi Zhong", "Shangshu Zuo Shilang", and "Shang Shu Right ShiLang", but the title of "Xi Xue Gong Shi" was retained. In the third year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1129 AD), Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty reinstated the two people who "checked and corrected the official affairs of the houses", and abolished them the following year. In the second year of Song Shaoxing, a "correction" was re-set.
This official model is imitated in ethnic minority regimes such as the Liao, Jin, and Western Xia states, and its functions are similar.
Among the descendants of Xi Xue's official affairs, there are those who take their official titles as their surnames, saying that the Xi clan has been passed down from generation to generation, and many of them have changed their Han surnames to the corresponding official clans in ethnic minority regimes.
6. Originating from the official position, from the Ming and Qing dynasties, the official teaching, belongs to the official title as the clan.
Teaching is the official name specially set up by Zhu Yuanzhang, the ming emperor of the early Ming Dynasty, to educate the princes, and later became the official name of the official teacher. Its functions are described in detail in the historical books "Ming Shi Zhi Zhi" and "Qing Tong Zhi Zhi
During the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court first selected some outstanding scholars to study in the Hanlin Academy, then called Shu Jishi, and the officials who taught courses to these Shu Ji shi were called "teaching". Beginning in the fifth year of Ming Xuande (1430 AD), he was appointed as a scholar. After the first year of the Ming Dynasty (1573 AD), he was specially taught as a ceremony and a servant of the second department of the official.
During the Qing Dynasty, the Ming system was followed, and a Shuchangguan was set up in the Hanlin Academy, where one manchu and one Han minister each taught and studied, and the following officials were selected to serve as minor teachers. There are also teachings in the princely palaces and official schools. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the government vigorously built schools, and its teachers were also called "teaching". This title has been used in the early days of the Republic of China, and was later changed to "teacher" by Cai Yuanpei, the head of education, and has been used to this day.
Among the descendants of the Manchu teachings during the Qing Dynasty, there are those who are called Han surnames by their official titles, which are called Xi and Jiaoshi, which have been passed down from generation to generation. For example, during the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, the famous Inspector of Jiangning, Zhebo, Jebe Hala in Manchu, Manchurian Red BannerMan, Shiju HanChuha (present-day Suifen River upper reaches of the border between China and Russia), initially taught by Prince Chun's palace, and in the eighth year of the Qing Kangxi Dynasty (1669 AD), he was specially appointed Inspector of Jiangning, who was honest and industrious all his life, and once secretly accused the Kangxi Emperor's beloved minister Cao Yin (Cao Xueqin's grandfather) of being short of silver salaries, and his descendants included the Xi clan.
Branch last name
Ancestor: Raid Xun Appeared in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty
During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, a learned and talented teacher in the village attacked Xunxun before changing his surname to "Raid". There are two theories about the change of surname of raiders: one is that four of the students educated by Raid xun have been recruited and are officials of the same dynasty. In order to reward him for cultivating the materials of the country, the emperor specially gave him a dragon robe to summon him to the palace to see the driver. Seeing the driving, the emperor casually asked him which "xi" word he was surnamed, although the attack xun was full of stomachs, it could be seen that driving was still the first time, and he could not help but be nervous, so he rubbed up the dragon robe with both hands, and failed to answer in time. Rubbing and rubbing, in a hurry, he suddenly replied: "The attack of the dragon's clothes"; another theory is that the attack on Xunqi is superb, and after the emperor summoned him into the palace, he often played against the emperor. Once the emperor asked him to play chess, and he was dozing under a tree. The emperor was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he took off his dragon robe and draped it over him. After raiding Xun woke up, in order to thank the emperor for his kindness, he changed his surname to "Raid" of dragon clothes.
He was eventually given the title of "Teaching.". Therefore, the people of Zhangqiu County and the townspeople used to call him "Raiding teachings". Now, according to the statistics of the clan genealogy, the surname has multiplied to many villages in Zhangqiu and many counties in the province and all parts of the three northeastern provinces.
