Is it true that as long as everyone surnamed Kong is a descendant of Confucius? I am a lucky generation, and my father is a complicated generation!
Before the Ming Dynasty, the descendants of Kong had no fixed generation. At that time, the number was still small, and the names of various families were very random. Since the 45 th generation, attention has been paid to defining generations, but it is not strict. Contemporaries often use the same radical or the same word. In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, successively gave Kong Cross as the generation word, ranking it from the 56th generation. From then on, the relatives of Kong clan were not allowed to name themselves casually. The government of the Duke of Feast also specially issued the "Kongshi Traveler's Notice" ... Now, after the auspicious words are listed, all my people will be named Xunzi according to the generation of listing. Don't respect the world, shout at will, don't enter the spectrum. During the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, Kong Yinzhi, the duke of feasting, reported to the emperor in the sixty-fifth generation and formulated the cross of the tenth generation. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Kong Xiangke, the 75th generation feast duke, was approved by the emperor and made a ten-generation cross. 19 19, Duke Kong Lingyi, the seventy-sixth generation feast, was put on file by the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of China for the twentieth generation. There are 50 words and 50 generations in the above-mentioned era, ranging from 56 generations to 105 generations, in the following order: Xiyan Gong Yan Chenghong (macro) Wen Zhen Shang Yin (Yan Xing Yu Chuan) Zhao Guangxian Qing Fan Xiang, Dewei Chuiyou Qin teenager Yan Yang Jiandao Dunding An Xiu Zhao Yi Chang Jing Rui Yong Xi Shi Xuchang, and over the 65th generation, it was originally "Yin", and Yan Sheng Kong Yin's public shunned it. In the 1990s, the local Kong family in Qufu passed to the "You" generation in the 1980s, and there are still 25 words to be continued.
