Zhu Lianggong, the ancestor of the surname Ye
After the surname Ye was given the surname, it developed very slowly at first. There are not many people named Ye found in historical records. Zang Lihe's "China The only person named Ye included in the "Dictionary of People's Names" is Ye Shao; the only celebrities before the Tang Dynasty included in the "Dictionary of Ancient and Modern Books - Clan Dictionary" are Ye Wanchun, Ye Xiong from Wu in the Three Kingdoms, and Ye Tan and Ye Shao from Jin. Ye Wanchun may be the "self-titled" of one of the "Eight Masters" of the immortals encountered by King Liu An, and is not necessarily the distribution of people with the surname Ye.

Therefore, the migration of the Ye family can only be seen from some existing genealogical materials.
According to the "Ye Family Genealogy" of the Nanyang Guild Hall in the sixth year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1880 AD), since Ye Gong, many generations of the Ye family have moved out of Henan.
Shen Zhuliang, the ancestor of the Ye family, lived in Yedi, Chu State (now Ye County, Henan Province) during the Spring and Autumn Period until his death.
Ye Gong has two sons: the eldest son is named Chong, who is the Yi Ling of Zhou Chu, and is married to the Fan family. Sheng Ning is the doctor of Chu; Mingpan, later Situ.
His eleventh generation, Ye Shuhe, was the prefect of Changsha in the Qin Dynasty (today’s Changsha, Hunan); his twentieth generation, Ye Chong, was the prefect of Yingchuan (today’s Yuzhou, Henan) in the Western Han Dynasty; and his twenty-fifth generation, Ye Xingxuan, was the governor of Changsha.

Han Dynasty
The Ye family's southward migration began in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and the ancestor was King Ye.
The Nanyang Guild Hall's "Ye Family Genealogy" in the sixth year of Guangxu's reign in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1880), Anhui's She County's "Xinzhou Ye Family Genealogy", and Zhejiang Songyang's "Mofeng Guangyuan Ye's Genealogy" are all Ye Wang is regarded as the ancestor of the Ye family's southward migration.
Ye Wang, courtesy name Shixian, was the prefect of Yanmen. He served as Guanglu doctor in the late Han Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Ling, he abandoned his official position and went into seclusion. He was known as "Mr. Lou Chuan".
In the second year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty (AD 197), he crossed the river from Qingzhou to the south and settled in Jurong, Danyang (now Jurong, Jiangsu). He was the ancestor of the Ye family who moved south.
The descendants of King Ye continued to develop outward and moved to Zhejiang, Anhui and other places.
Son, known as "Ye Father".
Ye Jian, the second son of the Ju family, named Yafu, was the prefect of Cangcang in the second year of Taikang of Jin Dynasty (AD 281), was awarded the title of general, and lived in Cangcang (today's Lishui, Zhejiang Province).
After Ye Jian, he lived on the right side of Maoshan in Songyang.
She County in Anhui Province is known as "Xinzhou Ye Family": Sun Shuo, the fifth generation of King Ye, moved to She County in Xin'an.
According to the large number of immigrants brought about by the Jin Yongjia Rebellion, it is speculated that the Ye family was not a minority during the period of migration to the south.
During the Jin Yongjia period, the internal strife in the royal family evolved from the struggle for power into the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, and the war spread throughout the Central Plains.
In the fifth year of Yongjia (AD 311), the Huns Liu Yuan took the opportunity to rebel against the Jin Dynasty. His younger brother Liu Yao invaded Luoyang and the Western Jin Dynasty was destroyed.
The remnants of the Jin Dynasty fled south, and finally reestablished their political power in Jiankang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu Province), which was known as the Eastern Jin Dynasty in history.
During the Yongjia Rebellion, the Central Plains gentry fled south one after another. A large number of people fled across the river, nearly one million people. In this wave of southward migration, many people from the Central Plains Ye clan must have moved to the south. Go to Fujian, Jiangxi and other places.
Tang and Song Dynasties
The Ye family moved southward twice in the Tang Dynasty, the first time in the early Tang Dynasty.
In the second year of Emperor Gaozong’s reign in the Tang Dynasty (AD 669), barbarians invaded the area between Quan and Zhangzhou in Fujian Province. The imperial court sent Chen Zheng as Dr. Taichang and the general manager of Lingnan March to join the army, leading 3,600 troops and fighting. One hundred and twenty-three generals entered Fujian to conquer Fujian, and many of them were soldiers of the Ye family. After the war, those who settled in Fujian multiplied everywhere. It is said in history that there were fifty-eight people with surnames who entered Fujian, followed by the late Tang Dynasty.
At that time, there were quite a few Ye family members who mainly lived in the north. Due to lack of information, their specific migration situation is unknown.
The late Song Dynasty was another wave of the Ye family's southward migration from the Central Plains.
In the first year of Jingkang in the Northern Song Dynasty (1126 AD), the Jin soldiers invaded the south. The war almost spread throughout the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, causing serious damage: "Thousands of miles of chickens and dogs, wells are full of corpses, and you cannot drink", "Shu, There is no one to harvest pears and dates!" "The people were in exile, the land was idle, and those who stayed behind were anxious when they saw that it was unavailable."
In the spring of the second year of Jingkang, the Northern Song Dynasty perished.
In May, King Kang Zhao Jian established the Southern Song Dynasty and made Lin'an the capital.
After the Jingkang Incident, until the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song and Jin Dynasties faced off and wars continued. A large number of people in the north were forced to continue to move south to avoid the wars. This lasted for nearly a century and a half, including many people with the surname Ye from the Central Plains. .
Due to the long history, there are not many records of people with the surname Ye migrating during the above-mentioned great migrations. Some records of Ye family genealogy reflect from one aspect the migration of people with the surname Ye to Jiangsu during this period. , Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other places.
For example, Anhui's "Huaining Tongguo Ye Clan Genealogy" states that its ancestor Ye Shang or moved from Yingkou, Huzhou to Huaining Tongguo during the Southern Tang Dynasty.

According to genealogy records, the Ye clan who moved south during the Tang and Song Dynasties were mainly from Henan. The Ye clan from Henan successively moved to Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Sichuan and other places.
Fujian Xianyou's "Guse Genealogy of the Ye Family" states: "The ancestor Ye Zhan lived in Yongzhou. During the chaos of the Five Seasons, the clan moved to Moji. In the Song Dynasty, he lived in Gushi, Guangzhou, and was the ancestor of Ye Yan. Hui, traveled south with the Song Dynasty, and lived in Gulai, Xianyou.

"The Preface to the Genealogy Revised by Si Gong" also says: "My ancestor was from Gushi, Henan". "The Preface to the Public Genealogy of the Ming and Yuan Dynasties" states: "My clan entered Fujian from Guangzhou". "Jige Ye Zhipu" of Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province says: Ye Shoushan, the founder, built the Yannan Crossing in the Song Dynasty and moved from Bian to Dongting Dongting Jige.

He lived in Chengxiang County, Meizhou, during the late Southern Song Dynasty when the government was in Fujian. War broke out and the north and south roads were blocked.

Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Ye family has spread all over the country and has become one of the common surnames in China.
In history, we have seen more people named Ye of all kinds than in the past.
