Ye's origin

Ye's family came from Mi's family, and his ancestors were Chu nobles. The origin and development of the Ye family, "Tongzhi, Family Simplification, Taking the City as the Family Name" is the most clear: "Ye family takes the old sound, and later generations have the same sound as Konoha." Customs pass:' Chu Yun sings that he must give birth to beams and eat leaves because of his family.' The Song Dynasty was named after the surname. "

In addition, Ye's family origins are also recorded in ancient books such as "Famous Words and Actions" and "A Textual Research on Surnames".

From these books, we can know that the ancestors of people surnamed Ye were the common people of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Spring and Autumn Period, his grandson Yin Ruins was killed in the battle with Wu, and his son was named Duke Ye (now south of Ye County, Henan Province). Soon, there was a white rebellion in Chu, and all the beams were knocked down. So his descendants inherited the title and ruled this place for countless years. Later, due to disputes among governors, Ye was destroyed and China people changed their surname to Ye.

There is also a surname Ye from a southern minority. There is a country in the south called wild fishing. When someone came to settle in the Central Plains, he took Ye as his surname. Wei Yexiong, the capital of Wu in the Three Kingdoms period, is a descendant of Ye Diaoguo.

After the downfall of Fujian in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, some people changed their surname to Ye in order to avoid the pursuit of political enemies. Today, there are Wang He and Ye Lian in some places along the southeast coast and overseas, to show that some people used to be a family with two surnames.

Ye has a long history and his pronunciation has changed. In the early days, the word "Ye" of Ye surname was pronounced as "She", and later it was pronounced as "Ye" of Ye.
