During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the imperial court gave a cross: Chineydy passed on Ji Guang and Zhao Xianqing Fan Xiang.
During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the imperial court also gave a cross: Make Dewei look down on you and respect Shao.
These words were given to Confucius by the imperial court. Later, descendants of Mencius, Zeng (Zeng Shen), Yan (Yan Hui) and Bu (,) also ranked according to these words to show their inheritance relationship with Confucius.
Extended data:
In China's 5,000-year-old civilization, only four surnames are called "Tian Tong Genealogy", which means there is only one genealogy in the world. These four surnames are Kong, Meng, Zeng and Yan.
The ancestors of these four families can be traced back to Kong Qiu, Mencius, Zeng Shen and Yan Hui, respectively, and the genealogies of these four families all have the same word generation-that is, the words used to name generations. This incident seems to have nothing to do with the nation, but in fact it fully shows the noble culture of our nation and the spirit of attaching importance to bloodline.
In Qufu, Shandong Province, a notice dated February 17, 2009 was posted in the Confucius Poetry Hall, which was a 30-character gift from Emperor Qianlong to Confucius. All Confucian families should follow the 30-character generation name. If you don't name it at will in word order, you won't be allowed to enter the family tree. In the ninth year of the Republic of China (A.D. 1920), the Duke of Confucius' seventy-sixth grandson feast was submitted to the government of the Republic of China for approval. After 30 words, 20 words were added.
Descendants of Confucius, Mencius, Zeng and Yan, 50 words.
