During the Shaokang period, Shaokang gave the land of Xiaozi (present-day Cangshan, Shandong) to the shaozi Qu Lie as a viscount kingdom, called the kingdom of Zizi, and in ancient times it was customary to use the fief as a surname, so Qu Lie took the surname of Qi from then on.

The kingdom of Yan, which was not very powerful, went through the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties until the Spring and Autumn. In the sixth year of the Reign of Lu Xiang (567 BC), the state of Ju was destroyed. The crown prince of the state of Wu, who was in the pain of the subjugation of the country, went out to the neighboring state of Lu and became an official in the state of Lu. The crown prince Wu of the Kingdom of Yan, who was in the pain of the fall of the country, used the original name of the country "鄫" as his surname, but removed Yiban (阝), indicating that he left the old city and did not forget his ancestors, called "Zeng", which is the origin of the surname of Zeng, and the descendants of the Zeng surname respected Prince Wu as the ancestor.
The former surname was the statue of the first prince
The surname zeng has long been passed down from The descendant of Yu, Prince Wu, who is worthy of the name 4,000 years ago, so there is a saying that "there is no two generations in the world".
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the fifth grandson of Prince Wu, Zengsan, worshipped with his father under Confucius. After Yan returned to his world, he became an important heir to confucius teachings. Before his death, Confucius entrusted his grandson Si to Zeng Shan. Confucius's thought was transmitted from Zengsan and Zisi, and zisi's disciples were then passed on to Mencius. Zeng Was revered by later generations as a "Zongsheng" and was one of the four saints worthy of the Confucius Temple.
