The "Chinese Surname Genealogy and Li Surname Volume" clearly states at the beginning: "The surname Li is the largest surname in China today. Tracing its origins is actually to solve two problems: one is the beginning of the Li surname, and the other is the origin of the Li family name. This first question has been mentioned in previous articles. The second problem is the problem of the county and the number of the church.
The so-called hall number is the name of the ancestral hall. It is used to distinguish between different sects within the same surname and county. Due to natural disasters, man-made disasters, or social unrest, wars and horses, or officials in different places, family migration, etc., after a family with the same surname settled in a certain place, in order to maintain close blood relations, they gave up another "hall number". Families that form the same county have different hall names. Only the surname of Li is different from other surnames: that is, all over the sea and abroad, where the surname of Li is, the county is Longxi, and the hall name is "LongxiTang". Among the many surnames, it is rare for the county to take the name of the county and the name of the hall. And the hall name has only one title, and there is only "Longxi Hall" with the surname Of Li. This unique phenomenon, in addition to the fact that the surname Li is the largest surname in the country and the world, and it is also the "national surname" of Li Tang, or the "county wang" approved by Li Shimin, etc., is probably inseparable from the fine traditions of the Chinese nation of woody water sources and Dunqin respecting ancestors that have been passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, longxi, as the common identity of the Li clan and the county of county that has been inherited from generation to generation, its significance has far exceeded the regional concept of "Great Longxi", and has become a cultural phenomenon of the Chinese nation and a miracle in the history of world surnames.

What is Gunwang? The interpretation of the "Cihai" is: "The noble clans of each county from the Wei and Jin dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties were called junwang, which means that the people living in a certain county were looked up to by the locals." At this time, Longxi County was ruled in present-day Longxi County, and the surname Li was already a prominent noble family in Longxi. After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he made Longxi the county of Li Shi in the world. The old version of the "Hundred Family Names" notes: a surname and a county. Like the other main surnames, there is only one county. Ancient surname writings, often when talking about the origin of surnames, often indicate the county of each surname. Today, there are also some scholars who are fighting for county hope out of bias - this may be to confuse the ancestral home of historical celebrities with the birthplace, or to regard the residence of one room and one family as a county, or to fundamentally ignore the time problem of "county hope". Ancestral origin and birthplace, Wang clan and Junwang are all different noun concepts, and the connotations are qualitatively different, especially in the time boundary can not extend the junwang to before wei and Jin.
The Li Tang Dynasty, founded by the Li clan of Longxi, was one of the few dynasties in Chinese history with far-reaching prestige. Political cultivation, strong national strength, siyi binfu, bafang lai dynasty, Li Tang dynasty is revered as "heavenly dynasty", Tang Taizong is known as "heavenly khan". The rule of Zhenguan and Kaiyuan has been regarded as a model by successive rulers, and can be called the peak of China's feudal dynasty. And Longxi, the county of The Li clan, has its own unique status and connotation. The "Family Name Genealogy" written by Lü Cai and others in the Tang Dynasty says: "Li Shifan's thirteen hopes, with Longxi as the first." In addition, Longxi was the most prestigious place of the imperial family, so at that time, the Li clan in the world was proud of being the Longxi Li clan, and even regarded the Longxi Li clan as a symbol of their identity and status.
