Chapter 476(2/2)
"For example, Liu Bang, in fact, he was not originally called Liu Bang, but Liu Ji."
"Ji, it means the third brother."
"So Liu Bang is an unknown person. He only gave himself the name Liu Bang after he achieved success in his career."
"And Liu Bang's father was named Liu Taigong, who was also an unknown person. At that time, all the older people were called Gong."
"And Liu Bang's mother was named Liu Ma, and she was another nameless person, which meant Aunt Liu."
"As Liu Bang as the head of the Sishui Pavilion, he is a nameless person. It can be seen how rare it is to have a name and a surname."
"What's even more terrifying is that Liu Bang finally became the emperor. His parents were still unknown people. They could not have a name in history books, which shows how rare the name is."
"You can look through the ancestors of Qin Shihuang, which one has a name or surname?"
"Whoever uses win the man and who uses win the mother?"
"This is the noble!"
............
Qin Shihuang nodded.
The Great Qin True Dragon:
"Indeed, the records of who Qin Shihuang's ancestors were clearly recorded."
"There are still clear divisions between nobles and civilians."
“This is the social background at that time.”
................
Chen Tong continued to attack.
Chen Tong:
"And there was a saying in ancient China that if you want to say that a person has no status, just say that he has no name or surname."
"This proverb actually reflects the demarcation of a person's identity by surname and name."
"Looking at Chen Sheng again, not only has a surname and a name, but also has a 'character'."
"The characters originated from the Shang Dynasty and became a custom during the Zhou Dynasty. Until the Han Dynasty, characters were still exclusive to the upper class."
"There is a saying in the Book of Rites: If you have the way to be a father at the age of twenty, friends and other categories should not call him the name again, so you will add the name."
"The general meaning is that this person has grown up and can no longer be called by his childhood nicknames, nicknames, etc., and there should be a respectful title to express status and respect. This is the word "
"Even Xiao He and Han Xin, he doesn't have any words."
"So, during the Qin Dynasty, a person had a name, a surname and a character, according to the social background at that time and the etiquette and law of naming names in society."
"This person is definitely a nobleman!"
"As for why the nobles would work as employees and cultivate land?"
"This is because during the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor unified the world, completely disrupted the structure of the entire society, and left many nobles without the foundation for survival."
"So they have to work on the labor of the lower class."
"Because their homes were destroyed, their country was destroyed, and the foundations of the nobles' existence were shoveled."
"And Chen Sheng is the descendant of this type of nobles."
"And there are many descendants of this kind. The descendant of the King of Chu, Xiong Xin, was the emperor of Yi, who was hidden among the people, but shed sheep for others?"
