Chapter 0678: Big Wren

Namba, Takatsunomiya.

At this time, the wren of the king of the Japanese was sitting on the tatami mat, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

And it wasn't long before the prince came to Suibei and entered the palace and sat opposite the wren.

When it comes to the name of the big wren, I have to complain about the ancient culture of the Wa Kingdom.

Few of the ten names of the Japanese people in this era seem to be normal, maybe they can't hear it themselves, they can't see it, but others think it's very funny!

In ancient times, the names of the Japanese people were relatively rough, so let's take a look at the name of the big wren.

What are the names of birds that come to Hobetsu, Sukistanaka, Ruiyabetsu, and Yuchao Tsuma, what are the names of birds? It's obscure!

Therefore, the Wei Empire's name for the big wren is generally praised by the king of the woren.

As we all know, the royal family of the Wa Kingdom has no surname, only a name but no surname, in order to show their nobility and show their distinctiveness.

Moreover, if the children of the Japanese royal family choose a name, it is generally very appropriate for the situation.

Let's just say this big wren.

It is said that on the day the wren was born, the Wa King, who was later called Emperor Yoda by the Wa Kingdom, went to a minister named Kisujuku and asked him what kind of auspicious fortune it was.

You said that when your wife gave birth, the wren entered the maternity house and was born on the same day as the wren, and it was considered a good omen, so he named it the wren.

History: On the birthday of the first emperor, Mu Su entered the production hall. On Ming Dan, Emperor Yutian called the minister Takeuchi Su You and said: "Is it He Ruiya? The minister said: "Good luck." Yesterday, when the minister's wife gave birth, the wren entered the maternity house. Yes and different. ”

The Emperor said, "The son of the present and the son of the minister are communists on the same day, and they are both rui, which is the expression of the heavens." I thought that taking the name of the bird, changing the name of each phase, was the deed of the later leaves. ”

Then take the wren name to the crown prince, called the big wren prince.

The son of the minister who took the name of Mu Su, he was called Mu Su. It is the ancestor of the Ping Qunchen. It's the year, Tai Sui.

What kind of operation is this?

So the name of the wren was taken down very crudely.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the level of the Japanese people in choosing names is relatively poor.

The reason why the Wa royal family does not have a surname is not that they want to be different, and in this era, there are not many people with surnames.

It may sound strange that the whole country should be ordered by the state to take the surname together, but it has indeed happened in the modern Wa Kingdom.

In the late 19th century, the Wa Kingdom made the decision that "all citizens can take their surnames". However, not many people responded, so the Wa State had to promulgate the mandatory "Miao Character Must Be Called Order", stipulating that "all citizens must have a surname".

In ancient times, only the nobles of the Japanese had surnames and names, and their so-called surnames were not the same as the surnames understood by the Chinese.

At the end of the fourth century AD, the Yamato Imperial Court of the Wa Kingdom unified many small states in the southern part of the Wa archipelago into a single state, and its political rule was based on the clan and surname system.

Led by the king of the Yamato Imperial Court (later the emperor), the nobles who held the central power and the kings of the small countries attached to the imperial court established a kinship group called a clan, and a clan was a noble family.

Some of the names of clans come from official positions, some come from the place names of places of residence and domination, some come from the names of gods, and some come from skills. For example, those who live in Izumo Province are called "Izumo clans", and those who do ritual work are called "Kibe clans".

The Great Prince, who held the highest power in the Yamato Imperial Court, was the most powerful clan at the time.

Later, the royal family gave "surnames" to many clans affiliated to the imperial court according to their kinship, blood relationship, and merit and power.

This "surname" cannot be regarded as a real surname, but only a title that indicates status, family, and position, similar to a title. At that time, there were about 30 surnames, among which "Xiangchen", "Jun", and "Zhi" were given to the royal family and prominent nobles, and they were the most powerful surnames.

Due to the multiplication of the population, a large clan has many branches. These branches have given themselves the word "Miao". "Miao character" means shoots, branches, that is, branches that branch from the family.

For example, Fujiwara was a large clan, and after the separation, the Fujiwara clan, who lived in Omi Province, took the first words of "Omi" and "Fujiwara" and called "Kondo". The Fujiwara clan that lives in Ise, Toe, and Kaga is called Ito, Endo, and Kato.

It was not until later that the Wa Kingdom moved out of the "Miao Character Must Be Called Order", that people hurriedly found their surnames, and a wave of surnames arose throughout the country.

Those who live in Aoki Village are surnamed Aoki, those who live next to the bridge are surnamed Ohashi, and those who have a pine tree in front of their house are called Matsushita. If there is a mountain in front of the door, it is called the mountain pass.

So Tanaka, Miki, Yamada, Nikko, North Wind, Front, Above, Kannon, etc., these surnames that Chinese people thought were strange suddenly poured out.

Those with the surname of the place include Ueno, Tanaka, Kawachi, Omiya, and Fatonya, and those with the surname of occupation are Mika, Mimi, Na Prostitute, Inoike, Hattori, Furui Maru, etc.

Some people use the names of ancient samurai as their surnames, such as Sakai, Honda, and Uesugi, which are all names of ancient samurai.

Some are afraid of punishment by the government, so they "panic and don't choose their surnames", and use fish, vegetables, monasteries, and occupations as their surnames.

Suzuki was originally a symbol held in the hands of the priest, and it also became a surname. A little cultural choice of longevity, longevity, millennium, pine and bamboo, asahi and other beautiful words as surnames. Symbols of longevity such as pines, cranes, and turtles have also become surnames, and hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands have also become surnames.

Some people really can't think of a good way, so they have to deal with one casually, my grandson, pig hand, dog breeding, ghost head, eggplant Chuan are all here, and some let the officials come up with one at will.

Later, the Wa State formulated a household registration law, and the surname of each household was fixed and could not be changed arbitrarily.

Because the surname of the Japanese people came suddenly and specially, its connotation is also different.

Most of the surnames in the world are related by blood, but the surnames of the Wa Kingdom rarely have this meaning, and those with a surname may not necessarily have a blood relationship, and those who are not a surname may be uncles and grandfathers.

After Prince Laibeibei entered this palace, he sat down, bowed his head to the big wren, and said, "Father, I don't know what you are looking for me, what is the matter?" ”

"You should know the news that Tokugawa Noshin has raised troops in Hokkaido and united tens of thousands of people from various tribes to march towards Kusashi Castle, right?" The big wren asked lightly.

"Hey! Such a big thing, it is estimated that only those untouchables who are closed off will not know about it. ”

"What do you think about that?"

After thinking about it, he said, "Father, you might as well watch from the wall." The Wei Empire set up the Yidao Protectorate in our Yamato, and on the surface, it will not interfere in the internal affairs of Yamato, nor will it interfere too much in the affairs of Yamato, but the king and a cadre of important officials need to be canonized by Emperor Ran Min of Wei, and the Wei Empire garrisoned troops in Yamato and recruited 50,000 servants, which has greatly threatened the safety of Yamato, and the father cannot sit idly by! And Tokugawa Noshin is a careerist, he played the banner of respecting the king, just to pull the banner of your father and your king to let more tribes follow him. ”

"When two tigers fight, there will be an injury! It is better for the father to sit back and watch Tokugawa keep his faith and fight Geng Ji, and then come out to clean up the situation. After the war, whether Tokugawa Shouxin won or Geng Ji won, his father could justifiably appeal to Emperor Wei and request the removal of the Yidao Metropolitan Protectorate, on the grounds that this Metropolitan Protectorate could not maintain peace and order, which had already aroused public indignation. ”

The big wren bowed his head slightly and said, "That's what the widow really thought before. But now it looks like a big mistake. ”

"Why did my father say that?"

"Tokugawa is trustworthy and ambitious, but after all, he is a Yamato person, and the crusade against the Wei army still needs to be carried out under the banner of respecting the king, without this banner, he is nothing. But Geng Ji is different, he is a Wei person, and behind him stands an extremely powerful Wei Empire, after all, he is an outsider, or a person who seriously threatens the status of the widow and the life and death of the Yamato country. ”

The big wren said in a deep voice: "If the Yidao Protectorate is not removed for a day, and Geng Ji is not removed for a day, the widow will feel uneasy!" ”

"Is Geng Ji that terrible?"

"It's not Geng Ji who is scary, it's the Great Wei Empire behind him. The Wei people have such an old saying that is good, brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted outside! The widows could not sit idly by and watch the Wei people continue to take root in Yamato and continue to expand their influence. ”

The big wren gritted his teeth and said: "The hateful Wei people, the hateful Geng Ji, he connived with the 50,000 servant army to destroy more than 50 villages and towns in a few days, causing people from various tribes to complain and make a living. Geng Ji is so lawless, even if the widow destroys him for Tianxingdao and destroys the Yidao Protectorate, I believe that Ran Min will not be able to say anything. ”

"This ......"

"You go and talk to Tokugawa Noshin quickly. It is said that the widow agrees to his request, and the widow will support him to exterminate the Wei army, and if necessary, the widow can even send troops to support him. ”

"Hey!"
