"Xu Ren Song" "Yanling Jizi Xi does not forget his old ways, the sword of a thousand gold with a hill tomb", Du Fu's poem "Put the sword to Xu Jun", telling the story of Ji Zha hanging the sword (the fourth uncle of Wu Wang Lu). Ji Zha is also known as "Gongzi Zha", "Ji Zi", "Yanling Jizi", etc., he is the ancestor of the Wu clan of Yanling. In some encyclopedic entries, he is called "His real name Jiza". Some encyclopedic entries refer to his brother or nephew as "Ji surname Wu", but Ji Zha as "Ji surname Shou", on the grounds that there may be descendants of his father Wu Wang Shoumeng who had the surname of "Shou", but this statement is not rigorous enough.
The following are the different titles for "Jizha" in different historical sources: The Ram chronicles refer to him as "Jizi" He is referred to in the Zuo Chuan, The Chronicle of the Wu Taibo Family, and the Wu Yue Chunqiu (吴越春秋) as "Ji Zha" (季札). The Book of Han refers to him as "Wu Za" Ban Zhao's "Eastern Crusade Fu" "Wu Za is called a gentleman, and his words are faithful and have signs", also called him "Wu Za"
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 is referred to as "Zhu Fan" in the Zuo Chuan and The Chronicle of History, "Wu Zi Shu" (Wu Guo is a viscount) in the Spring and Autumn Classic, and "The Ram Biography" as "〝谒" (〝谒" in the "Spring and Autumn". Sima Zhen's "Shi Ji Suo Yin" believes that "〝谒( 谒) is the name, Zhu Fan is the number", and later unearthed documents prove that the word "Zhu Fan" in the "Zuo Chuan", "Shi Ji" and other heirloom documents is a tong fake 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 the "Zuo Chuan" also refers to "Ji Zha" as "Gongzi Zha" ("Zuo Chuan Xiang Gong Twenty-Nine Years" "Wu Gongzi Zha Lai"), then "Zha" should be his name, just like the "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"). A certain poetry scholar wrote "Ji Zha" as "Ji Zha" into the poem "Ji Zha", because Ji (Shangping Sizhi), Ji (desound si 寘).
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. Concubine Xi (妫, daughter of Duke Zhuang of Chen) was surnamed Chen (羏), Jiang (sister of King Cheng of Chu) was surnamed Xiong, and "Xi" and "Jiang" were the small countries to which they were married. According to the custom of women's surnames, she is not called "Su Daji".
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 Shi Gong (Sima Qian) wrote the "Records of History", he was already "the confluence of surnames", but "Ji Chang" and "Ji Fa" were still recorded as "King Wen" and "King Wu" in the "History of 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), "Zhao" was his clan, so he was called "Zhao Zheng", not because his mother was from the State of Zhao, but to explain that the State of Qin and the State of Zhao were of the same origin as the State of Zhao. A passage from Gu Yanwu's Rizhilu can also prove that Tai Shigong's era was already "a confluence of surnames", and "the clan" has gradually been assimilated into the "surname", such as the "surname Zhao". Therefore, today to ask you your surname instead of asking you your surname, "no more surname Zhao", "Zhao surname is divided from the winning surname" has become a conventional concept, and no one will advertise that so-and-so is "Zhao surname Zhao". You may overlook that the vast majority of "surnames" like Zhao today are actually "clans" in the pre-Qin period.
The names of surnames and surnames have been mixed into one since the beginning of the Taishi Gong, 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".
