    There are many surnames in China, such as: Liu, Wang, Zhuge or something, and everyone knows that the surnames of Wang, Li and Zhang are the three major surnames in China, and there must be three surnames of friends around them, and the surnames of Wang, Li and Zhang feel that 500 years ago they were not a family, but independent, because most of this big surname has a relationship with the king, let's take a look at it specifically.

    First of all, it is the surname given by the ancient king, which is a matter of glory to the ancestors in ancient times, and the surname of the king, it is like entering a wealthy family, with a very strong background, the most famous example in history is Tang Taizong.

    The general of the period, Xu Shiyun.

    Because it is necessary to avoid Li Shimin.

    , so he changed his name to Xu Tao, and then he was given the surname "Li" by Li Shimin, so that the entire Li surname is very much, after all, the ancient population was very large, and everyone knew about three wives and six concubinesTherefore, from the perspective of the king's surname, the surnames of Wang, Li and Zhang are definitely not from the same period, and they cannot be the same family.

    And for this Wang surname, the most powerful thing is the gate valveAccording to historical records, since the Han Dynasty, there have been more than 20 gate valve families, and we know Wang Xizhi.

    Such a famous calligrapher also came from here, and there was even the Taiyuan Wang.

    Also, this is the beginning of the Tang Dynasty.

    One of the seven major valves, it is conceivable that the surname Wang is strong, there are so many talents in the younger generations, the family will not collapse, from this point of view, the surnames of Wang, Li and Zhang cannot be the same family.

    Finally, there is the surname Zhang.

    Yes, there is no king in this historical machine, but there are many prime ministers, according to the records in the history booksIn the 300 years of the Tang Dynasty, there were almost 15 prime ministers, this number is really terrifying, and the status of the prime minister is very terrifying, behind each prime minister is a big family, so the surname Zhang is naturally a lot, and we all know the Taoist Zhang Tianshi.

    It is definitely a super powerful existence, and it has been inherited for almost 2,000 years now, and from this point of view, it is impossible for the surnames of Wang, Li and Zhang to be the same.

    It is not clear that in the process of transmission and evolution of surnames, the purity of the "bloodline" of a surname will be affected. A large number of surnames, surnames, and surname avoidance, etc., all make it difficult to establish the statement that "500 years ago was the same". However, although this statement is not scientific, this "five hundred years ago was a family, and when they went out, they could indeed enhance people's feelings.
