Why does Hundred Family Names start with Zhao Qian, Sun Li .

First of all, Zhao: "Hundred Family Names" first appeared in the Song Dynasty, when there was a scholar among the people, who had nothing to do at home when he was old, so he read and practiced calligraphy and annotated some classical anthologies. One day one of his students asked him how many surnames there are in this world and what they are.

He couldn't answer, he was laughed at by the young students, and instead of scolding the students, he fell into deep thought. Indeed, at that time, there was not a single book or person that compiled the surnames of the whole country. He believed that the surnames of all the people in a country were indispensable as a map of a country, and he set out to do so.

He collected all the surnames around him, all the surnames he knew, the surnames that had appeared in history, and the surnames that had been told to him. He recorded all these surnames, and gradually collected seventy-seven-eighty-eight. Later, when the emperor heard about it, he wanted to see the book he had collected that recorded his surname, and he was very happy and terrified.

So he carefully checked his records overnight for any errors, and in the second half of the night he fell asleep at his desk, dreaming that he had been beheaded because the emperor had said that he was going to rebel.

After the old gentleman was frightened awake, he was puzzled, he was a scholar in cloth, how could he go to rebel? Then the problem must have appeared in this book, he carefully examined it, and it was not until the moment he was about to hand it over that he understood that he had written his surname in the first place! So he quickly changed it and wrote the emperor's surname in the first place, and the emperor's surname during the Song Dynasty was Zhao, so Zhao became the first in "Hundred Family Names".

Secondly, in a hurry, the old gentleman only changed the emperor's surname to the first, and the later ones did not change. After this book reached the hands of the emperor, it was greatly appreciated, and it also spread among the civil and military officials. Those dignitaries opened it and wanted to see if they had their own surnames, but they searched for a long time before they found it, which made them very dissatisfied, so they asked the old gentleman to re-rank them and put them in the front.

At that time, in the Song Dynasty, in addition to the emperor's surname Zhao, the three surnames of "Qian, Sun, and Li" were the surnames of the most prominent nobles at that time, so the surnames of the hundred families began with "Zhao Qiansun Li".

Friends who have watched or have not watched "Hundred Family Names" will know the beginning of this sentence, why does it start with "Zhao Qiansun Li"?

In fact, the surnames in the hundred surnames are not arranged according to the number of people with these surnames, because Zhao was the imperial surname at that time, ranking first, and there were many locals at that time who were very grateful for the kindness of the Qian family, so the money was placed in the second place, Sun was the orange land and orange affair of the queen of Wuyue, and Li was the national surname of the Southern Tang Dynasty, a neighboring country of Wuyue at that time.

If the main quiet sail is because of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao is the emperor's surname Qixunhail, Chang Kuqian represents wealth, Sun is looking forward to the full house of children and grandchildren, and Li is peach and plum all over the world. So put Zhao Qian, Sun and Li in front.

Because the surnames of Zhao Qian, Sun Shu, and Li are very common, and the number of surnames is high when writing hundreds of surnames, in fact, civil officials have already gone to the people to understand it, and made a simple statistical statistics, and found that these 4 surnames have the largest number of people.

This is because the person who wrote the hundred family names was born in the Song Dynasty, so he would write the names of some powerful ** and emperors of the Song Dynasty in front.

"Hundred Family Names" is a book that has been handed down from ancient times to today, in ancient times, this book has the same status as "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text", and children in ancient times would use these books as enlightenment reading. "Hundred Family Names" has a very far-reaching impact on people until now, and it is also an intangible cultural heritage of our country, which includes more than 500 surnames. When normal people memorize "Hundred Family Names", they can know that the first few surnames are "Zhao Qiansun Li", but they don't know why it is such a sorting, and they always think that it is ranked according to the number of people, but in fact, the order in "Hundred Family Names" is according to the social hierarchy at that time.

In fact, when reading "Hundred Family Names", I do have a strong sense of cultural identity, feel that my surname and bloodline are inherited from ancient times, and I will also sigh at the magic of history. According to the records of relevant sources in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the book "Hundred Family Names" is a work about surnames, which was established in the early Song Dynasty by a Confucian scholar. <>

This book uses a four-character style, arranging all the surnames together, and it is also very rhyming and catchy when reading, which is easy to remember. Although there is not much truth in this book, and the explanation of the surname is also very straightforward, it truly records Chinese culture and can help people understand Chinese characters, so it can be passed down to the present. The compilation of "Hundred Family Names" was not written according to the number of people at that time, and the "hundred" in the hundred family surnames|In fact, it's just an imaginary number, there are more than 500 surnames in the book, 411 were written in the Song Dynasty, and later they were added by later generations.

The reason why "Hundred Family Names" is ranked first with "Zhao" is because the emperor of the Song Dynasty at that time was surnamed Zhao. And in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the monarch of Wu Yue was surnamed Qian, and the person who compiled the book "Hundred Family Names" was also from Wu Yue, so he put Qian in the second place. At that time, King Wuyue's name was Qian Yu, and his wife's surname was Sun, and she was later named queen, so Sun was ranked third.

The surname Li represents the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the declining Tang Dynasty was adjacent to Wu Yue, and the two sides were like brothers and sisters, so Li was ranked fourth. So at that time, the author really didn't do what he wanted when he was creating, and he used more famous characters at that time.

Because Zhao Qian Sun Li is the name of ancient emperors, such as Zhao Kuangyin, Sun Quan and Li Shimin, it may also be because of the large number of surnames.

Because Zhao Qiansun Li is a royal surname, it will be listed as the beginning of a hundred family names, and there is also a saying that these words represent the meaning of peach and plum all over the world, and the practical problem can be traced back to the primitive society, and it is also passed down from generation to generation.

According to records, when the surname of the hundred families first appeared, the emperor of the dynasty was surnamed Zhao, the king of Wu Yue was surnamed Qian, the royal wife and concubine were surnamed Sun, and the emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty was surnamed Li, so the beginning was Zhao Qian Sun Li.

One theory is that the number of people with the four surnames Zhao, Qian, Sun and Li is relatively large, and the other theory is that the editor deliberately ranked these four surnames first.

"Hundred Family Names" was written by people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the Song Dynasty, Zhao was the surname of the emperor, and Qian was the surname of the king of Yue who ruled in Zhejiang at that time (Qian Biao?). Sun and Li seem to be the surnames of whose wife.

Because he's in front, and you bite him!

At that time, there were many people with the surname Zhao! By the number of people!

Who knows! It may have something to do with the number of people with the surname! Those who have been going on like this are used to it.

It is ranked according to the number of family populations, and now the census is Li Zhang...

This is a hundred family names compiled in the Song Dynasty. Zhao refers to the royal family, and Qian, Sun, and Li were relatives of the emperor at that time. To put it bluntly, in order of the magnates.

Because the surnames of Qian, Sun, and Li are mostly in front, and Zhao is not much, because it is the emperor's surname, it ranks first.

This is in order of population at the time.

Social status. Number. Economy. Comprehensive conditions are arranged.

In terms of population, Lee is now number one.

Because it was written in the Song Dynasty.

The higher the ranking, the greater the number of people.
