"Xu Ren Song" "Yanling Jizi Xi does not forget the past, the sword of a thousand gold with a hill tomb", Du Fu's poem "The sword to Find Xu Jun", all talk about the deeds of Ji Zha, the fourth uncle of King Wu. Ji Zha is also known as "Gongzi Zha", "Ji Zi", "Yanling Jizi", etc., he is the ancestor of the Wu clan of Yanling. He is called "Ji Zha" in the "History of the Wu Taibo Family", "Wu Zha" in the Book of Han, and "Wu Zha" in Ban Zhao's "Eastern Crusade". In some encyclopedic entries, "Jizha" is referred to as "Jiza" and some encyclopedic entries refer to Jiza as "Ji surname Shoushi", on the grounds that among the descendants of his father Wu Wangshoumeng, there was later "Shou" as a clan.
Shou Meng had four sons, Chang Yue Zhu Fan, The Second Yue Yu Sacrifice (Sentence Yu or Dai Wu), The Second Yue Yu Yu (夷末 or 夷昧), and the second Yue Ji Zha. - "History of the Wu Taibo Family"
Ji Zha's eldest brother referred to zhufan in the Zuo Chuan and Shi Ji, Wu Zi Shu (Wu Zi Shu) (Wu Guo was a viscount) in the Spring and Autumn Chronicles, and the Ram Biography as "Zhu Fan", and later unearthed documents proved that "Zhu Fan" was a false character. Some encyclopedic entries believe that his character "Jizha" is like the Confucius character "Zhongni", "Zhong" and "Ji" table ranking are mostly used in the ancients. Of course, there are also those who think that his name "Za" is not counted, "Ji" is only temporarily omitted from the table ranking, and the meaning of a person's "name" and "character" will be related to each other, but it can never be the same word, such as Lu Ji Zi Gongji, "Ji Ji" and "Ji Ji" are just the same sound. Since Ji Zha is called "Gongzi Zha", then "Zha" should be his name, just as "Xiao Bai" in "Gongzi Xiao Bai" is the "name" of Qi Huangong. He was the youngest son of King Shoumeng of Wu, so he was called "Ji Zha" (which means almost the same as "Old And Little Zha").
Mr. Zhang Binglin's "Book of Kui" records that "officials, characters, surnames, and yi are often used as clans,...... Since the woman is called the surname, the man is called the surname, the clan is traced by his surname, and the marriage is not married" by other marriages. For example, the mother of King Qin Zhao was from the Chu kingdom, "" is her maiden name, "Eight Sons" is her position, and some people call her "Eight Sons". The "Jiang" in Xuanjiang, Wenjiang, and Wujiang is the surname of their mother's family, indicating that they are all Qi people. The surname is not married, and the family name is noble and lowly. In the pre-Qin period, "men called their surnames not surnames", and only at the end of the Warring States period did there be a trend of "surname confluence", and after the Han Dynasty, there was basically no difference between "surnames" and "surnames". For example, we know that the five surnames and seven clans (home/wang) include the Boling Cui clan, the Qinghe Cui clan, the Xingyang Zheng clan, etc., so we can see that there is basically no difference between the "surname" and the "clan".
When Tai Shigong wrote the "Shi Ji", he was already "the confluence of surnames", but "Ji Chang" and "Ji Fa" were still recorded as "King Wen" and "King Wu" in the "Shi Ji Zhou Benji". Perhaps Tai Shi Gong summed up the previous historical data and thought that it was not wrong to call them so, in short, he did not call them by their surname - Ji. Later historical sources called them "Ji Chang" or "Ji Fa", such as the Song Dynasty Wang Chen's "Tang Yulin Vol. II Literature" "Ji Chang Haode, Lü Wang (Jiang surname Lü) Qianhua". Qin Shi Huang's surname was Zhao Zheng (正), so he was called "Zhao Zheng", not because his mother was a Zhao native. A passage from Gu Yanwu's Rizhilu proves that Taishi Gong's era was already "confluence of surnames", and "clan" had gradually been assimilated into "surname", such as calling Qin Shi Huang "surname Zhao". Therefore, the vast majority of the "surnames" that ask you for your surname (not your name) today are the "surnames" of the pre-Qin period.
The titles of surname and surname have been mixed since the beginning of the Taishi Gong (Sima Qian), and the original Qin Shi Huang was known as "surname Zhao", and Yu Han Gaozu was known as "surname Liu". - Gu Yanwu, "Rizhilu"
Guan Zhong, Ji surname Guan clan name Yi Wu Zi Zhong, have you ever seen someone call Guan Zhong "Ji Yi Wu (the same surname as Jin Huigong)"? Surely not, "Born in Sorrow and Died in Happiness" is from "Mencius Zhizi Xia", which contains the sentence "Guan Yiwu Ju Yu Shi". Confucius, the son's surname is Kong's name Qiu Zi Zhongni, and no one calls Confucius "Ziqiu", right? The Chu royal family is surnamed Xiong, and we will see records such as Xiong Tong, King Xiong Tong of Chu Wu, King Xiong Of Chu Wen, And Xiong Lu (Brigade) of Chu Zhuang, and we have never seen anyone who calls them Qi Tong, Qi Zhao, and Qi Lu. Qu Yuan, surnamed Qu Shi (芈氏名平字原) (the name of the correct character Lingjun in "Leaving the Troubles"), I have only seen him called "〝芈原" in TV dramas.
Finally, Chu Xiang Sun Shu Ao, the surname of Qi, the name of the Ao character Sun Uncle. Confucius's father, Liang Qi, was named Shu Liang (叔梁) by the kong surname. "Bo, Zhong, Shu, Ji" and "Meng, Zhong, Ji" are all ranked, "Bo" is the boss of the concubine, "Meng" is the boss of the family, "Meng" is the boss of shu out, "Ji" means the smallest. "Sun Shu'ao" and "Shu Liang" are both combinations of "characters" + "names" in the table ranking, and meng Mingshi ( 孟明視 ) ( Jiang Mingxi ' Baili 's name Meng Ming , also known as " Baili Meng Mingshi " ) , also belongs to this phenomenon. Then, it is not surprising that Gongzi Zha, the fourth uncle of Wu Wang, who was in the Spring and Autumn Period with these people, added the "Season" indicating the ranking in front of his "name", and called him "Ji Zha".
