The origin of French surnames

Law (f) During the Warring States Period, the descendants of King Xiang of Qi (Tian's surname) changed it to take the ancestral name as their surname. According to "The Biography of Fa Xiong in the Later Han Dynasty", after King Qi Xiang's decree, Honda's family was destroyed in Qin, and descendants dared not claim land, so they took Fa as their surname. During the Warring States Period, when Qi was powerful, it showed off its martial arts excessively and laid a curse by killing Yan Zhaowang's father. After Yan thought he was commander in chief, he joined forces with Qin Chu and other five armies to attack Qi, and even attacked more than 70 cities in Qi. Only Gonggong and Jimo are still sticking to it. King Qi Gui fled to Miyagi and was killed by the Chu people who came to help him on the pretence. Tian Zhangfa, the king of Qi, had to disguise himself as a civilian and flee to the old house of a surname as a servant, changing his surname to the law to avoid the enemy. Soon, Tian Chan of Qi defeated Yan and recovered Qi. Zhang Fa dared to disclose his identity and was known as King Xiang of Qi. The illegitimate son of King Xiang of Qi, who later took the French surname he had used as his surname, was called Fa.

More than 50 years later, in the 26th year of Ying Zheng (22 1 BC), Qin Jun evaded more than 500,000 main forces in the southwest of Qi State, bypassed Yan State, attacked the empty hinterland of Qi State from the north, breached its capital Linzi City in one fell swoop, captured Tian Jian, Wang Qi, and Qi State perished. After the national subjugation, the illegitimate son of the late King Qixiang dared not call it Tian any more because of the cruel search and killing, so he took the "Fa" used by King Qixiang as his surname and renamed it Fa, which was passed down from generation to generation.

Most French clans respect Wang Tian of Qixiang as their ancestors. From the Hui nationality, there is a legal surname. According to China Hui Dictionary, the French surname is one of the Hui surnames. Mainly distributed in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Huifa's name mainly comes from the Chinese transliteration of ancestors' names, and comes from Abu Al-Ja 'far (707-775 AD), the second caliph of the famous Abbas dynasty in Arab history. Mansour means "winner" in Chinese, and his real name is Abu Jia Faer, which is also translated as Abu Zhelfa.

In 775 AD (10 in the reign of Tang Daizong's Li Yu), Abu Jia Faer died near Mecca in 10. Historians say that he was the real founder and pioneer of the Abasi Dynasty, so he was deeply respected by the Muslim world for thousands of years. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, among the Arab Muslims who entered the Central Plains and stayed, Abu was the Han surname, mostly Jia, Fa, Man and Er. After the Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, it became a part of the Hui nationality, a unique minority in China.

Today, the legal clan members of the Hui nationality are mainly distributed in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Dezhou, Shandong. Originated from the Khitan nationality, from the Liao Dynasty official ware library, belonging to the official title. Antiquities library is an official post set by Liao regime in Song Dynasty, which belongs to the official Southern Taichang Temple. Its main duties are to be responsible for sacrificial ceremonies, musical instruments, car driving, halogen books and other affairs. There are ambassadors of the Museum of Cultural Relics and deputy ambassadors of the Museum of Cultural Relics, namely the Chief Executive and the Deputy Chief Executive. After the Jin dynasty overthrew the Liao dynasty, it also set up an artifact library, but it belonged to the Ministry of War of Shangshu and later to Taichang Temple. The cultural relics library subordinate the official rank to six grades. In addition to the deputy director of the Antiquities Library, the subordinate also added the director of the Antiquities Library.

Among the descendants of ambassadors, deputy ambassadors and museum directors, some people take the title of their ancestors' official position as their surnames and pass it on from generation to generation. Originated from the official position, from the official law of the Han Dynasty, belonging to the official title as the surname. Facao was an official post established in the Han Dynasty, responsible for postal delivery, with official titles, and also responsible for security and theft along the way. It is recorded in the history book "The Records of Guan Bai in the Later Han Dynasty": "Facao is in charge of postal affairs." Wei, Jin, Sui, Tang and other later generations followed suit, subordinate to the Prime Minister's Office or the Three Public Offices, with one person in charge and a rank of 300 stones. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Facao's administrative functions changed and he became the head of local judicial organs. For example, it is recorded in the Book of the Tang Dynasty: "Facao, the judicial army, the prison law, the supervision of thieves, know whether to bribe people." Therefore, it is also called "Fa Cao joined the army". This kind of official title and function came into being in the Tang Dynasty. Up to now, Japanese judicial officials and lawyers are still called "Facao".

Among the descendants of Fa Cao, Fa Cao joined the army and Fa Mao, some took their ancestors' official titles as surnames and passed them down from generation to generation. Originated from the official position, from the official wine warehouse in Song Dynasty, belonging to the official title. French wine cellar was an official post established in the Northern Song Dynasty. It belongs to Guanglu Temple. Its main function is to prepare wine raw materials according to French style, supervise the brewing process and check the quality of wine for the imperial court to enjoy, sacrifice and reward.

They are the right-hand men of the French wine cellar. Generally speaking, they are courtiers, third-class envoys, or attendants. Among the descendants of the French wine cellar and the French wine supervisor, some took the official title of their ancestors as their surnames, which was passed down from generation to generation. In addition, in the Song Dynasty, there was an official position-French wine store, which belonged to the secretary of Dongban, that is, the civilian class. In fact, this French wine store has no specific positioning, just a virtual title, just a step of promotion. When there are vacancies, the official department will choose the best wine shops in France. Many honest people don't know how to bribe, don't know how to cater to flatterers, and will always be in the position of French wine cellar and will never succeed.
