"Can an uprising led by aristocrats call a peasant uprising?"

"This should be called a rebellion!"

………………

Qin Shihuang's eyes brightened, and a stone finally fell from his heart. 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?

The name doesn't look like that either!

But I can't stand what everyone is talking about.

He didn't have the nerve to refute, after all, he was the Emperor of Qin, so he was a bit of a suspect for Qin Er Shi.

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

Xiang Yu and Li Longji were angry at that time.

Especially Li Longji, he felt like his IQ had been insulted.

Li Sanlang, Lord of the Palace of Longevity:

"Are you kidding me? Since ancient times, everyone has known that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are farmers, but now you tell me that they are not farmers?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Do you know how poor Chen Sheng was at that time? He was a hired laborer and plowed the fields. Isn't he a farmer?"

………………

Zhu Di scratched his head. He is also very confused now. In the Ming Dynasty, those who plowed the fields must be farmers!

But now he didn't raise any doubts, just watched quietly.

At this moment, Liu Bang sneered, eyes full of contempt.

He understood the truth, but he was also the person involved and didn't want to talk about it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che often praised Chen Tong, and he also wanted to see how capable Chen Tong was.

Why do you think that Chen Sheng is a nobleman?

………………

Chen Tong didn't need to think at all, he had studied too much on this issue.

Chen Tong:

"First of all, just looking at the name alone, it is impossible for Chen Sheng to be a low-level peasant."

"Because Chen Sheng has a first name, a surname, and characters."

"Chen Sheng, Zi She."

…………

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

Third Lang, Lord of the Palace of Longevity:

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

"According to what you say, there will be no farmers in the world that day!"

"Who doesn't have a name?"

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

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

Liu Bang is even more supportive, and has no interest in arguing with people like Li Longji, because he must not understand what he said!

Li Shimin, Zhu Di and others are also frowning at this moment. They have names and surnames. What can explain the problem?

Chen Tong:

"Nowadays, people have names and surnames, and that doesn't mean anything.

But in the Qin Dynasty, people who had names and surnames were basically nobles.

Because, the surname is the patent of the nobility.

This is the same as the blood system in the West. Noble blood with titles. In the past, their names would have middle characters representing noble blood, which were used to distinguish them from ordinary people.

In ancient Yanhuang, the longest period, surnames represented nobles.

More than 80% of the people in the Qin Dynasty did not have a surname.

How did the last name come from?Either it was a family inherited from ancient times, or his status is extremely noble in the contemporary era, and he was granted a fief. Often, his surname is whatever his fief is.

For example, Shang Yang.

In fact, Shang Yang's surname was not Shang at all before, but Wei, called Wei Yang.

This shows that Shang Yang was originally the son of the royal family of the Wei State. After Shang Yang's reform, he made great contributions to Qin. Qin Xiaogong named him the Lord of Shangluo and called him Lord Shang!

And this Shang surname is more noble than his original Wei surname, so Shang Yang changed his surname from "Wei" to "Shang".

This is the basic source of ancient surnames.

Therefore, a person with a surname must either be of noble blood and have fiefdoms from his ancestors, or he himself has made great achievements and is noble for a lifetime.

Other than that, no one else deserves to have a surname!

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

This is the status quo of the people at the bottom. You don't have a noble blood inheritance, you don't have your own fiefdom to show your identity, how can you come up with a surname? "

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

Zhu Di was astonished.

Execute Your Ten Clans (Hero Lord of the Prosperous Age):

"I'm going, there is such a great knowledge about a surname?"

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

"Chen is not a small surname."

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

Li Shimin was also shocked at the moment.

Chen Tong gave him too much shock.

This is the so-called study of history. Is it necessary to examine the social background at that time?

Sure enough, knowing the social background at that time, some things can't be hidden!

Qiangu Li Er (the hero and the sinner):

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

"The people at the bottom of the Qin Dynasty were not like this."

………………

Li Longji was very depressed.

Even the emperors of the Tang Dynasty rebelled. If Li Shimin was not his ancestor, Li Longji would have scolded Li Shimin so badly.

Who is your grandson?

Li Sanlang, Lord of the Palace of Longevity:

"Are people with surnames not common people?"

"This is too arbitrary!"

"There is no such absolute thing in the world."

………………

Chen Tong laughed.

Chen Tong:

"Having a surname is considered a nobleman, this is indeed too arbitrary!"

"However, what I'm talking about is having a first name, a surname, and a character."

"Let's look at 'name' again. In ancient times, many people's status was very low. How low was it? They didn't have their own names!"

"For example, Zhu Yuanzhang, he was originally called Zhu Chongba. Because Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a very humble family, his name can only be named by numbers."

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

"For example, Liu Bang, in fact, his name was not Liu Bang, but Liu Ji."

"Ji means the third child."

"So Liu Bang is an unknown person. He only named himself Liu Bang after he had a successful career."

"And Liu Bang's father is called Liu Taigong, who is also an unknown person. At that time, all the older people were called Gong."

"And Liu Bang's mother is called Liu Yu, and this is another unknown person, which means Aunt Liu."

"Just like Liu Bang, as the head of the pavilion in Surabaya, he is an unknown person, which shows how rare it is to have a name and a surname."

"What's even more frightening is that when Liu Bang finally became the emperor, his parents were still unknown, and they couldn't have a name in the history books, which shows how rare a name is."

"You can look through the generations of Qin Shihuang's ancestors, which one doesn't have a name and a surname?"

"Do you think who uses Yinggong and who uses Yingying?"

"This is the nobility!"

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

Qin Shi Huang nodded.

Great Qin True Dragon:

"Indeed, who is the ancestor of Qin Shihuang is clearly recorded."

"Nobles and commoners are clearly distinguished."

"That was the social context at the time."
