The Qin royal family is surnamed Ying, why is the eldest son of Qin Shi Huang called Fusu and the yo

The Qin royal family is surnamed Ying, and the eldest son of Qin Shi Huang is called Fusu, and the youngest son is called Hu Hai because of their noble status, and they are called by the surname of the surname, rather than by the surname.

With the passage of time, China has entered the pre-Qin era, and the history of Chinese names has also evolved from matrilineal to patrilineal, because of the frequent wars, the status of men has been greatly improved, so, their surnames have also changed.

We all know that in ancient times, only the descendants of the descendants could inherit the family business, the rules of the family were stricter, and only the eldest son could inherit the surname, such as the Zhou Dynasty, and other royal families of the Zhou Dynasty could not inherit their own surnames, and could only be named according to their geographical location and other characteristics, which is the origin of "clan".

Therefore, your surname is where your ancestors came from, and this surname is your current name.

Ying Zheng's surname, Ying is his surname, and Zheng is his name, because he was born in Zhao State, so the name that represents Ying Zheng's status at the beginning is Zhao, the reason why it is called Zhao is that Ying Zheng's social status at that time was very low, and it cannot be called a surname. Later, Ying Zheng returned to Qin, and at this time, his social status and family nobility also underwent fundamental changes, and his clan became Zheng.

After Yingzheng successfully ascended the throne, there was a prince, at that time the prince had his own fief, then their clan would become their own fiefdom, we take Fusu as an example, Fusu is the son of Qin Shi Huang should have followed Qin Shi Huang's surname Ying, but Fusu is his clan, if Qin Shi Huang gave him the "Zhao land" and became his fief, then Fusu's clan is Zhao, people will call Fusu, Zhao Fusu, and he can't be called to win Fusu.

In the era of the Qin Dynasty, ordinary people did not have a clan, only people with status could have a clan, and once they had a clan, they no longer called their surnames but called their names, as a way to express their respect for each other.

These two names are just their names, not their sex, nor their clans, which is why they have such names, which are similar to our current nicknames.

Because Fusu and Huhai are their names, they are all surnamed Ying, and they are all surnamed Zhao. And now Sino City has become one. But at that time, there was no one, and his children were called Fusu, Hu Hai.

Qin Shi Huang's surname is Ying, and Fusu and both have the surname Ying, which is no problem. But why is Qin Shi Huang called Ying Zheng, and Fusu is not called Ying Fusu, because Qin Shi Huang is not called Ying Zheng originally! When we look at the "Historical Records", there are only the statements of Qin (Wang) Zheng and Zhao Zheng, but not the statements of Ying Zheng.

The so-called Ying Zheng is a miswriting by later generations. This involves a question of the difference between surnames and surnames in the Zhou Dynasty, what is the difference between surnames and surnames? To put it simply, the surname indicates blood origin, and the clan represents the social group, so it is also the surname Ying, and the Qin and Zhao countries are Qin and Zhao respectively.

As for Qin Shi Huang, he was supposed to be Qin, but because he was born in Zhao, he began to be called Zhao Zheng from his mother's name, and later returned to Qin to be called Qin Zheng. We can find that at that time, men were actually called by their names but not by their surnames, for example, Qu Yuan was not called Mi Yuan. And women generally have to be called surnames, for example, although Miyue in "The Biography of Miyue" is a fictional name, this title itself is in line with the title structure at that time.

Therefore, it is no problem for Fusu to have the surname Ying, but their title is to use Qin, and Qin (prince) Fusu and Qin are the correct way to call them. Fusu is an abbreviated name.

Fusu surname According to the customs of the time, the surname Ying is the same, the surname is different, Fusu as a large sect should inherit the surname Ying, as a small sect should have its own name, but actually inherited the position of the emperor, and Fusu was given death, they did not have an independent name, or the surname Ying.

Many times we will have an unconscious habit, that is, to look at historical events or historical figures from the perspective of the current thinking, so there are historical limitations mentioned in textbooks, but in fact, it is difficult for anyone to look at the world beyond their own historical stage, so it is necessary to look at the world from the perspective of the other party. Not necessarily, I'm afraid

Because they don't have the surname Ying, they are surnamed Zhao. And in ancient times, when calling others, they were not called surnames, only names, so over time they were called Fusu and Huhai.

Because Qin Shi Huang's surname is actually misspelled, he was born in Zhao and should be called Zhao Zheng, and he is from Qin, and his son should be surnamed Zhao.

Because Qin Shi Huang did not have the surname Win, but later generations called him Yingzheng, in fact, he was surnamed Zhao, so his two sons would not have the surname Win, but only Zhao.

Because in the pre-Qin period, not everyone had a surname, people mostly used a first name, rarely used a surname, and some people did not even have a surname.

Fusu and Hu Hai were the sons of Qin Shi Huang, and they both had the surname Ying.

The surname Ying is a descendant of Emperor Zhuan. The granddaughter of the woman was called a nun, and during a weaving trip, a swallow dropped an egg, and the nun devoured it, so she gave birth to a son named Da Ye. Daye married the daughter of the Shaodian tribe Nuhua as a wife, and gave birth to a son called Da Fei, he had successfully treated the flood with Dayu, and Emperor Shun gave Dayu a black jade.

And he gave him a white banner and said, "Your children and grandchildren will surely have great deeds in the future." So Shun married his daughter surnamed Yao to him.

Dafei accepted it very respectfully, and he assisted Emperor Shun in regulating and taming birds and beasts, and managing animal husbandry. This is the Boyi mentioned in the "Book of Shang", and Emperor Shun gave him the surname Win.

Da Fei has two sons, one is called Da Lian, who is the Bird Vulgar Clan; One is named Ruomu, which is Fei, and his great-great-grandson is named Fei Chang. Some of their descendants live in the Central Plains, and some live in the Yidi region. When Fei Chang was in Xia Ji, he betrayed the Xia Dynasty, surrendered to the Shang clan, and defeated Xia Wei in Mingtiao Mountain for Shang Tang.

One of his grandsons was named Meng Xi and the other was Zhongyan, and Emperor Taiwu of Shang asked them to drive. Their descendants have all made meritorious contributions and assisted Yin Shang, so most of the people surnamed Ying have prominent positions and have become princes. Zhong Yan's great-great-grandson was named Zhong Yan, who defended the western frontier in Xirong and gave birth to a son named Fei Lian.

Fei Lian's son is evil, evil is extremely powerful, good at running, and the father and son serve King Yin with special abilities. King Wu of Zhou killed Evil Lai when he attacked the King of Shang. At that time, Fei Lian Zheng sent an envoy to the north for the king of Zhou, and after he returned, Shang had been destroyed by Zhou.

Fei Lian also had two sons, one was named Nu Fang, who was the ancestor of the Qin State; One is called Ji Sheng, who is the ancestor of the Zhao Kingdom.

Female defense gave birth to Pang Gao, Pang Gao gave birth to too many, too many gave birth to Da Luo, and Da Luo gave birth to non-children. Feizi lived in Inuqiu (Qin's name wasted hill, Hanzhi Huaili, now east of Zhangjiachuan, Xingping County, Shaanxi), and King Xiao of Zhou ordered him to raise horses and develop animal husbandry in the Weishui area. Because the horses were bred in large quantities, he gave him the land of Qin (Qingshui County, Gansu), called Qin or Qin Ting, and let him continue the temple worship of the Ying family, known as Qin Huan.

Qin Ying gave birth to Qin Hou, Qin Hou gave birth to Gongbo, and Gongshu gave birth to Qin Zhong. After King Xuan of Zhou succeeded to the throne, he appointed Qin Zhong as a doctor to crusade against Xirong. Due to the tyranny of King Li of Zhou, many princes and Xirong rebelled against the Zhou family, and Xirong exterminated the families of Inuqiu and Da Luo.

Qin Zhong did not go west for a few days and died in Xirong. He had five sons, the eldest son was named Zhuang Gong, and the Zhou royal family summoned them and gave them 7,000 soldiers to go on a crusade against Xirong and defeat Xirong. So King Xuan of Zhou once again returned the land of the former Inuqiu Daluo to them, and ordered Zhuang Gong to be the doctor of Xitui.

The eldest of Zhuang Gong's three sons is called Shifu, and he made an oath and said: Xirong killed my grandfather Zhong, and I swear to kill King Rong to death. Therefore, he led his troops to attack Xirong and let his younger brother Xianggong inherit his father's throne.

King You of Zhou set up a concubine, bullied the princes, and the princes rebelled. Xirong, Dog Rong and Shenhou Vazhou, killed the king of You, at the foot of Li Mountain. And Qin Xianggong generals rescued Zhou, the battle was very strong, meritorious, King Zhou Ping named Xianggong as a prince, gave the land west of Qishan, and knighted the Qin State.

Surnames in ancient times have always been a very vexing issue. Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, surnamed Yingmingzheng, is common in history books, but his two sons, Fusu and Hu Hai, have never heard of Ying Fusu and Ying Huhai. Could it be that the historian is gentle and loving, and he doesn't like to bring a surname when writing about people, so it won't be that other good people have a surname, so the two brothers Fusu and Hu Hai are special.

This is not the case.

Before the Qin Dynasty, surnames were not combined, surnames were surnames, and surnames were clans, which were different. The surname is a large clan, the clan is a small clan, the surname is to distinguish the marriage relationship, people with different surnames and the same name can get married, but people with the same surname and different names cannot get married, because it is a child of the same family, marriage is easy to lead to genetic diseases.

The clan is to distinguish the noble from the low. People of noble status can choose their own clans, so even if they are in the same family, but their identities are different, their clans are different. And the woman's clan follows her husband.

For example, your current surname is Wang, and you have three sons with your wife, and when these three sons grow up, each of them has a different social level, some rich and some poor. Then the rich man can change his name, but his surname is still Wang, but his name is different from yours.

Then, for Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, he is surnamed Zhao. About the surname Ying can be traced back to the ancestors of Qin Shi Huang, about the Zhao family is very clear, Qin Shi Huang's mother is called Zhao Ji, because the wife's clan follows her husband, so Qin Shi Huang's father Qin Zhuang Xiangwang is the Zhao family. The identity of an emperor is noble enough, with Zhao as the clan, it can be seen that the Zhao clan is really noble.

When it comes to Qin Shi Huang, naturally you don't have to choose the clan, you can just use your father's clan.

Regarding Fusu and Huhai, their surname is Fuhe Hu, and their surname is also Fuhe Hu. Because the six countries were unified during the time of Qin Shi Huang, Qin Shi Huang unified the script, **, and even unified the surname. In order to implement the new policy, he and his sons naturally had to play an exemplary role, and Qin Shi Huang thought that he was over half a hundred years old and there was no need to toss anymore.

But the sons are still very young, so it is very likely that Qin Shi Huang gave the surname to the two sons.

Fusu and Huhai are just their names, and their surnames are still wins, so it is not that the sons of Qin Shi Huang do not have the surname Win, but because people are used to calling them by their first names and ignoring their surnames.

Because there were no surnames more than 2,000 years ago, there is a huge difference between this concept and today's surnames, and this is not the real name of two people.

Qin Shi Huang's mother was Zhao Ji, and in terms of the historical background at that time, Qin Shi Huang should be surnamed Zhao, so his children should also be surnamed Zhao, but due to the later patriarchal society, everyone felt that Qin Shi Huang's surname was Ying.

Fusu and Hu Hai are names, and they are indeed surnamed with Qin Shi Huang, the surname Ying.

Qin Shi Huang is surnamed Ying, Zhao, Mingzheng, and later generations call Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, but if it is in the Qin Dynasty, we should call him Zhao Zheng. For Qin Shi Huang's children, Fusu and Hu Hai, they should naturally also be surnamed Zhao, called Zhao Fusu and Zhao Huhai.

The reason why Qin Shi Huang's sons Fu Su and Hu Hai do not have the surname Win is because Qin Shi Huang does not have the surname Win, but the surname Zhao, Qin Shi Huang is what he calls himself, and Qin is the Qin State he represents.

In the pre-Qin period, no one had a surname + first name, generally it was a surname + name, at that time Win was the surname, Qin was the surname, so Fusu and Hu Hai were both surnamed Qin.

In the pre-Qin period, more names were used and fewer surnames were used. 100 days after the birth of the child, the father gives the child a name. When they become adults, they take the word "character" to supplement or explain their name. The son of Qin Shi Huang was called Gongzi Fusu and Gongzi Huhai.

Qin Shi Huang's sons Fusu and Hu Hai are all surnamed Ying, and that is just their nickname, but the names of the ancients are different.

Qin Shi Huang's son must have taken his surname, which was the surname of Zhao. Fusu and Huhai are names.

Qin Shi Huang's sons Fusu and Huhai, they are not surnamed Ying, Fusu and Huhai are just their names, not their surnames.

In fact, it is the surname Ying, but the surname is generally not added when it is called, and in ancient times, there was a distinction between the surname and the surname, the surname followed the mother, and the family inherited the father, but as the prince, he did not call the surname, but the son Fusu, if it was an ordinary person, it was called Zhao Fusu.
