My surname is GUI. The original meaning of GUI is osmanthus tree. "Under the pavilion rock, the osmanthus is fragrant at the end of the year. The leaves are dense and green, and the flowers are yellow." In such a brilliant autumn, osmanthus blooms quietly. Inadvertently, the graceful little flowers suddenly penetrate into the eyebrows and eyes, rich and cordial. If you walk around the osmanthus forest, people will become flowers. Taking GUI as the surname, like the osmanthus, which is the first-class flower, it has its own fragrance. First, the ancestor GUI Yi? The surname was born to avoid disasters. People have a deep love for osmanthus from ancient to modern times. Osmanthus has a long history. As early as the 3rd century BC, the ancient book of the pre Qin period, the book of mountains and seas, recorded that "there are many osmanthus in the swaying mountains". In the eyes of the ancients, sweet scented osmanthus is the embodiment of beauty. Lu Buwei, the Prime Minister of the state of Qin, wrote in Lu's spring and Autumn Annals: "the beauty of things is the glory of ostentation." Osmanthus is also a precious symbol. It is recorded in the collection of ancient historical notes and novels Xijing Zaji that "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty first built Shanglin garden, and more than 2000 kinds of exotic flowers and trees were offered by the ministers, including 10 osmanthus trees". This shows the precious osmanthus. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, osmanthus cultivation began to prevail, and people even chanted osmanthus, highlighting its famous products, unique fragrance and high purity. For example, the Song Dynasty poet LV Shengzhi's "monopolizing the three autumn seasons and suppressing the fragrance of the people, and He Yong's" orange green and orange yellow ". Since planting in the middle of the next month, if the fruit wafts the fragrance of the sky", and the Southern Song Dynasty writer Yang Wanli's "it is not a human species, it comes from the middle of the month. If the fragrance is a little cold, the mountain will be blown all over", etc. all praised osmanthus. It is a metaphor for the idiom "toad palace folding osmanthus" which should be tested in the imperial examination era. It also refers to the osmanthus flowers in the Moon Palace (toad Palace) to obtain great achievements or high honors. In addition, osmanthus is also a symbol of nobility, victory, auspiciousness and friendship. It is said that during the Warring States period, Yan and South Korea once presented each other with osmanthus flowers to show their goodwill and friendship. In ethnic minority areas rich in osmanthus, young men and women often express their love by presenting osmanthus. GUI Yi, the ancestor of the surname GUI, was also very close to osmanthus. He likes to sit and meditate under the osmanthus tree. However, when his thoughts were flying, his heart was often not calm. The dusty past always hit him like the tide, which hurt his heart. How much confusion, grievance and pain were hidden in his experience of taking the surname GUI. These things are recorded in the preface to the family of GUI family and the surname test compiled by Chen Tingwei in the Qing Dynasty. GUI Yi, whose real name is Ji Yi, is a descendant of the Zhou royal family. His father Ji Jizhen was a descendant of the royal family of the state of Lu in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He served as a doctor of the state of Qin at the end of the Warring States period, and was killed when the state of Qin burned books and buried scholars. Ji jisui, Ji Jizhen's younger brother, took Ji Jizhen's four sons to flee with his family in order to avoid trouble. He changed the names of Ji Jizhen's four sons: Ji Yi, the eldest, was changed to Gui Yi, who lived in Youzhou (about Zhuozhou, Hebei and Jixian, Tianjin) and guarded the graves of Ji Jizhen, his father; The second was changed to mintu and moved to zhuxu, Jinan (about now Linqu, Shandong); The old three was changed to Zhuo award and lived in Lishan Mountain of Qi State (about the Qianfo Mountain of Jinan, Shandong Province); The fourth was changed to a Tibetan and moved to Yangcheng, Henan (about Dengfeng or Puyang, Henan). Later, the descendants of the three surnames, Yi, Yi, and Yi, all adopted their ancestors and returned to their ancestors. They changed their surnames to the eldest surname, GUI, which has been handed down from generation to generation. Ji jisui's use of words when he changed the names of his nephews was well intentioned.
