Chapter 87 The origin of Lao Tzu's name
-----First of all, I wish you good luck! The Seven Fairies and Dong Yonglai are asking you for support! Without your support, it would be difficult for our husband and wife to reunite, and a happy life would be even more out of reach. No one knows our suffering without clicking, we have to sleep on the street without collection, we are black accounts without recommendation, we are Diao people without evaluation, we can't afford breakfast without rewards, we have to be hungry without subscriptions, and we can't afford to take the bus without a monthly pass. Ask for support-----
After Lao Tzu preached, he found that Mei Chenglin and some of the people from the Mei family in Tiantan Village who followed Mei Chenglin in the past, as well as the women of the Mei family in the Temple of Heaven Village who accompanied Mei Lanfang, actually entered a state of cultivation, that is, they did not disturb Mei Chenglin and some people from the Mei family in the Temple of Heaven Village who followed Mei Chenglin in the past, and the women of the Mei family in the Temple of Heaven Village who accompanied Mei Lanfang.
Therefore, by the time Mei Chenglin got out of the cultivation state, Lao Tzu had already gone to the original house.
Mei Chenglin was stunned, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten to ask Lao Tzu to name himself.
Therefore, Mei Chenglin was very annoyed.
Mei Chenglin was very annoyed, so he slapped his forehead hard and slapped him again.
Just as Mei Chenglin slapped his forehead heavily and slapped him again, a voice suddenly sounded in Mei Chenglin's mind, "You don't have to be afraid!"
Although it was said that the voice that suddenly sounded in Mei Chenglin's mind said, "You don't have to be afraid!", but Mei Chenglin had never experienced this kind of thing, how could Mei Chenglin not be afraid?
So.
Poor Mei Chenglin couldn't help but tremble all over.
In the eyes of some of the Mei families in Tiantan Village who followed Mei Chenglin in the past and the women of the Mei family in Tiantan Village who accompanied Mei Lanfang, Mei Chenglin's state is to play a pendulum [malaria is commonly known as "pendulum", which is an insect-borne infectious disease that is rapidly transmitted by malaria parasites after mosquito bites the human body, and occurs frequently in summer and autumn. It is clinically characterized by recurrent episodes of intermittent chills, high fever, and remission by heavy staining. Cerebral malaria is the most severe, with rapid onset of high fever (42°C), severe headache, vomiting, convulsions, coma, and in severe cases, cerebral edema, respiratory failure and death.
Just as those who followed Mei Chenglin in the past, some of the people of the Mei family in the Temple of Heaven and the women of the Mei family in the Temple of Heaven who accompanied Mei Lanfang, were in a hurry. When he was about to treat Mei Chenglin as a patient who was swinging, Mei Chenglin suddenly stopped trembling all over, that is, there was no swing.
Those who followed Mei Chenglin in the past and the women of the Mei family in Tiantan Village who accompanied Mei Lanfang did not take further measures.
What's wrong?
It turned out that the voice that suddenly sounded in Mei Chenglin's mind was followed by "I'm you...... Uncle Cousin...... Father. "It seems that even a fairy-like character like Lao Tzu, because he is not completely familiar with human language, sometimes he will inevitably stammer.
As soon as Mei Chenglin heard Lao Tzu's voice, he was not afraid, nor did he feel how strange it was, what was it for?
Naturally, it was because Mei Chenglin had seen many mysterious places of Lao Tzu, so he was not surprised.
Next, what Lao Tzu told him made Mei Chenglin breathe a sigh of relief, what is it?
Naturally, it is about the name of Lao Tzu.
Lao Tzu's voice said to Mei Chenglin in Mei Chenglin's mind: "My birth is very related to Muzi, and it is not impossible for my surname to be called Muzi, but according to your Huaxia nationality [Huaxia is also called "Xia", "Zhuxia" is the self-name of the Han people who lived in the Central Plains in ancient times, and it has been called Han since the Han Dynasty. There are several explanations about Huaxia: 1. Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor's "Sayings": "Xia, the people of China are also. 2. "Spring and Autumn Zuo Chuan Justice": "China has great etiquette, so it is called summer, and the beauty of uniforms is called Hua." 3, "Shangshu Justice": "The crown is dressed in Huazhang and said Hua, and the big country is called Xia" 4, Zhang Taiyan: Because the nation originated between "Huashan" and "Xia Shui", it is named. It seems that the surname is usually one word, so my surname is to merge Muzi, and Shangmu and Xiazi are temporarily called Li, right? ”
In this way, didn't Lao Tzu become the ancestor of the surname Li?
However, this statement is also consistent with historical accounts.
1. According to the record of "Surname U", part of the surname Li is the direct descendant of Emperor Gaoyang, the surname Li is derived from the surname Yan and the surname Yao, and is the descendant of the descendants of Emperor Gaoyang, Li Zheng and the descendants of Emperor Shun Yao, the descendants of Emperor Shun and Emperor Shun: Emperor Shun, surnamed Yao, was born in Yao, and took the surname Yao from the land, and his descendants took Yao as the surname. Yao, Gaotao once held the position of Dali (the official in charge of the prison), and his descendants passed the position of Dali for three generations, and his descendants were called Li according to the custom of the time. Or from the founder of Taoism in the Zhou Dynasty, Laozi Li Er, belongs to the official title of the clan. There are two kinds of statements that Li changed to Li's: one theory is: during the Shang Dynasty, Li Zheng, a descendant of Gaotao, was an official in the court, and was executed because he offended the king of Shang because of his direct advice, and his wife Qi and his son Li Zhen fled with their son Lizhen, because they ate plums to satisfy hunger, so they did not dare to be reasonable, so they changed their surname to Li. Another theory is: according to historical records, the Zhou Dynasty did not see the Li family before, since there is Lao Tzu surnamed Li, the name of the ear, the legend is the descendant of Peng Zu, Li, Li two words ancient sound, then also to Li as the clan. Some of the Li clans began with the surname of Li Er.
Of course, there are other sources for the surname Lee.
The second source is derived from changing the surname, which belongs to the surname given. The surname given in feudal society is that the ruler erases the existing surname of others out of his own will and replaces it with the surname given by himself. The style of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty giving surnames flourished in the Tang Dynasty, starting from the founding emperor Li Yuan to the end of the Tang Zhaozong Li Ye, which has been continuous. policy, changed to the Chinese character single surname Li. **Li is a Persian, Arab, Turkic and other West Asian and Central Asians who came to China and settled in China since the 7th century. According to historical records, there are many people who were given the surname Li in the Tang Dynasty: such as Li Tudiji, Li Simo, Li Baoyu, Li Zhongchen, Li Guochen and others.
The third source originated from the change of surnames and surnames in the period except the Tang Dynasty. After Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved the capital to Luoyang, he implemented a comprehensive cultural sinicization policy and changed to a single surname of Chinese characters. Li accounted for a high proportion of the **, some directly from ancient Persia or Arabia, such as Li Xun, a Shu poet five generations ago, whose ancestors were Persians, who came to China and stayed in Zizhou (now Santai, Sichuan). In the Tang Dynasty, there were also people such as the Abu clan, the Aqiu clan, the Sheli clan, the Zhu Xie clan, and the Dong Luo clan who were given the Li clan for their meritorious service to the founding of the country. In addition, General Li Hemo, a great eater, as well as Li Yansheng and Persians Li Xuan and Li Xun are all given surnames by princes.
Yuanliu four originated from the Miao nationality, belonging to the Sinicization and changed the surname to a name. The Li family is one of the major surnames among the Miao people in the Weining area of Qianxi. The surname of the clan is "Meng Enlu", and the Han surname is "Li", which is a special way for the Miao people to implement the "son-father joint name system". Some of the Li clan in the Miao nationality are the products of ethnic integration, and some have nothing to do with the original meaning of the Li clan. For example, in the Qing Dynasty's Xianfeng and Tongzhi years, there was a rebel general named Li Hongji in the Guizhou Miao uprising led by Zhang Xiumei, but he was not surnamed Li, and "Li" was a misrepresentation of his Miao name "Proposed", and "Proposed" in Miao language means "water cow", and "Hongji" means "curved horn", so "Li Hongji" is "curved horn water cow".
Yuanliu Wu originated from the Zhuang people, and belonged to the Sinicization and changed the surname to a name. The Li clan has a large number of Zhuang people, and there have been some influential figures, such as Li Kaifang, Li Jingui, Li Wencai, etc., famous generals of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, all of whom are from the Li clan of the Zhuang nationality.
Six originated from the Yao people, belonging to the Sinicization and changed the surname to the name. Li is one of the main surnames of the Yao people, ranking fifth among the original twelve surnames of the Yao people. According to the blood relationship, the Li clan of the Yao nationality has a number of "rooms", and each room has a title, and the generational titles include "Bentou", "Babi", "Jiugu" and so on.
Yuanliu Seven originated from the Bai nationality, belonging to the Sinicization of the surname changed to the name In history, the Li family of the Bai nationality has emerged some more famous figures, such as Li Zicong, the minister of Dali in the Song Dynasty, Li Yuanyang, a writer and historian in the Ming Dynasty, and scholars Li Zhuoyun, Li Genyun, Li Chongjie and so on in the Qing Dynasty. Today, Li is still one of the four major surnames of the Bai nationality.
Yuanliu Eight originated from other ethnic minorities, and belonged to the Sinicization and changed the surname to a name. Today, the Dai, Yi, Tujia, Jing, Tibetan, Evenki, Uygur, Oroqen, Tu, Gaoshan, De'ang, Dong, Li and other ethnic minorities have Li clan people distribution, most of their sources are in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties in the central government's policy of restraint and the movement to change the land and return to the stream, the flow was changed to the Han surname Li, which has been passed down from generation to generation.
Yuanliu Jiu originated from the She ethnic group, and belonged to the Sinicization and changed the surname to the name. She is a common Chinese, mainly engaged in agriculture, and has lived with the Han people for a long time, and has a very close relationship. The genealogy of the She nationality in Xiapu County, Fujian Province records that "in the second year of Tang Guangqi (886 AD), there were more than 360 Dingkou in Pan, Lan, Lei, Zhong and Li, and they were judged as township officials from the king of Fujian, and came to Fujian from the sea", which shows that there was a Li family of She nationality in Fujian at the end of the Tang Dynasty. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was Li Zhifu, the leader of the Fujian peasant uprising, who is said to be a member of the She ethnic group.
Since Muzi became Li, later people simply called Muzi Lizi.
