Chapter 476(1/2)

In the chat group, the emperors were waiting for Chen Tong's answer to see what evidence Chen Tong had that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising was not a peasant uprising.

Especially Qin Shihuang, he did not believe that the Qin Dynasty had only been the second generation, so there was a peasant uprising.

Chen Tong:

"My first evidence is that Chen Sheng is not a farmer at all, not just a farmer."

"He is also a complete nobleman."

"Can an uprising led by aristocrats be called a peasant uprising?"

"This should be called rebellion!"

……………………

Qin Shihuang's eyes were bright, and a stone in his heart finally landed on the ground. It turned out that Chen Sheng was not a farmer at all. He felt very strange at the time. How could Chen Sheng be a farmer?

This name doesn't look like it either!

But I can't resist everyone's talking.

He had no nerve to refute it. After all, he was the Emperor of Qin, which was a bit suspicious of eliminating Qin II.

.............

Xiang Yu and Li Longji were angry at that time.

Especially Li Longji, he felt that his IQ was insulted.

Li Sanlang, the owner of the Palace of Eternal Life:

"What a joke? Since ancient times, everyone knows that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are farmers. Now you actually tell me that they are not farmers?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Do you know how poor Chen Sheng was at that time? He had worked as a hired worker and ploughed the fields. Are they not a farmer?"

……………………

Zhu Di scratched his head. He was also very confused now. In the Ming Dynasty, the farmer must have been the farmer!

But he didn't question any questions now, just watched quietly.

Liu Bang sneered at this moment, with contempt.

However, he understood the truth, but he was also a person involved and did not want to talk about this matter. Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che often praised Chen Tong, and he also wanted to see how capable Chen Tong was.

Why do you have to think that Chen Sheng is a nobleman?

……………………

Chen Tong didn't have to think about it at all. He has studied too much about this issue.

Chen Tong:

"First of all, just looking at the name, Chen Sheng can't be a farmer at the bottom."

"Because Chen Sheng has a name, surname, and also has a character."

"Chen Sheng, the name is She."

…………

Li Longji was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.

The Third Lang, the Lord of the Palace of Eternal Life:

"Just because Chen Sheng has a name and surname, do you say he is not a farmer?"

"As you say that, there will be no farmers in the world!"

"Who doesn't have a name or surname?"

………………………………………

As soon as Li Longji said this, Qin Shihuang saw the problem.

Liu Bang even held his forehead and no longer had the interest in debating with people like Li Longji, because he definitely didn't understand what he said!

Li Shimin, Zhu Di and others were also frowning at this moment. What problem can they explain with names and surnames?

Chen Tong:

"People nowadays have names and surnames, that doesn't mean anything.

But during the Qin Dynasty, if there were names and surnames, they were basically nobles.

Because, the surname is the patent of the noble.

This is like the Western bloodline system, with noble bloodlines of titles. In the past, their names had intermediate characters representing aristocratic bloodlines, which were used to distinguish them from ordinary people.

In the ancient times of Yanhuang, the oldest period, the surname represented the nobles.

More than 80% of the people in the Qin Dynasty had no surnames.

How did the surname come from? Either it was inherited from ancient families, or his identity was extremely noble in the present, and he was given a fiefdom, often where his fiefdom was, his surname was his.

For example, Shang Yang.

In fact, Shang Yang did not have the surname Shang at all, but Wei, and was called Wei Yang.

This shows that Shang Yang was originally a royal prince of the Wei Kingdom. Later, Shang Yang made great contributions to Qin's reforms. Qin Xiaogong named him the lord of Shangluo and called him Shangjun!

The surname Shang was more noble than his original surname Wei, so Shang Yang changed his surname from "Wei" to "Shang".

This is the basic source of ancient surnames.

Therefore, people with surnames either have noble blood and their ancestors have fiefs, or they themselves have great achievements and become noble for a lifetime.

Apart from that, others are not worthy of having a last name!

For example, Heifu, this is a person without a surname.

This is the current situation of the people at the bottom. If you don’t have noble blood inheritance, you don’t have your own fiefdom to demonstrate your identity, how can you get your surname?”

………………………………………

Zhu Di was shocked.

Kill your ten clans (the heroic lord in the prosperous era):

"I'll go, a surname has such great knowledge?"

"Chen Sheng really can't deceive anyone now."

"Chen is not a little surname."

…………………………

Li Shimin was also very frightened at this moment.

Chen Tong brought him so much shock.

This is the so-called research history. Do we need to verify the social background at that time?

Sure enough, after knowing the social background at that time, some things were gone!

Li Er (the hero of the sinful king):

"It seems that Chen Sheng may not be a commoner!"

"This is not the case with the lower class of the Qin Dynasty."

……………………

Li Longji was very depressed.

The emperors of the Tang Dynasty had rebelled. If Li Shimin had not been his ancestor, Li Longji would have scolded Li Shimin so much at that time.

Who is your grandson?

Li Sanlang, the owner of the Palace of Eternal Life:

"Whoever has a surname is not a commoner?"

"This is too arbitrary!"

“There is no such absolute thing in the world.”

……………………

Chen Tong smiled.

Chen Tong:

"Even if you have a surname, it's really too arbitrary!"

"But, I'm talking about a name, a surname, and a character."

"Let's look at the 'name' again. In ancient times, many people had very low identities. How low is it? They don't have their own names!"

"For example, Zhu Yuanzhang was originally named Zhu Chongba. It was because Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a very low family, so his name could only be named by numbers."

"And in the Qin Dynasty, there would be such a situation, because the status is not high and there is no name, and it is also named by numbers."
