Chapter 1017 1012 [Find yourself an ancestor first](2/2)
"We poor families, we descendants of Yan and Huang, have been ruled by the Goryeo barbarians for too many years. Now it's time to recognize our ancestors and return to our motherland!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Although they considered themselves of Chinese ethnicity before, they did not talk about recognizing their ancestors and returning to their motherland.
Because it is not a sin to consider oneself to be of Chinese descent, even many aristocratic families in Goryeo are related to China.
For example, Wang Jian, the founding monarch of Goryeo, said that he was related to the Langya Wang family in order to flatter himself.
The credibility of this thing is very high. Wang Jing, the governor of Lujiang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was born in Pyongyang. His eighth generation ancestor Wang Zhong moved there as early as the Western Han Dynasty. The Wang family has already become a wealthy family in Lelang County.
After Goguryeo captured Lelang County, Wang Jing's branch returned to the Langya Wang family, and another Wang family went south to Baekje and settled in Wang Jian's Longxing land.
There is also a Wang family in Lelang County who took refuge with the Murong family in western Liaoning during the Western Jin Dynasty. Yuwentai's mother is from this Wang family.
Jin Yungui stood up suddenly and took down several Chinese history books from the bookshelf:
"I have read the history books of the Han and Tang Dynasties in the past few years, and I know the origin of the various surnames in Goryeo. For example, my own surname is Jin, and my ancestor is actually the grandson of Jin Gong in the Han Dynasty. At that time, my ancestor Wang Sunggong gave birth to a son, but was forced by my mother-in-law to marry him.
Wife and divorce."
"His wife remarried Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and gave birth to a son who was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."
A group of poor scholars were surprised to find out that Jin Yungui’s ancestor was actually the ex-husband of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty’s own mother!
Jin Yungui took out another booklet: "According to the history books of the Han and Tang Dynasties, I have recorded the origins of various surnames in Goryeo. If you don't know where your ancestors came from, you can find them in this booklet."
A group of poor scholars rushed forward. Their status in Goryeo was very awkward, and they couldn't wait to recognize their awesome ancestor.
The Zhang Mingli who spoke before quickly found his ancestors and cheered: "It turns out that my ancestors came from Wu County and moved to Silla during the Southern and Northern Dynasties!"
Everyone found their ancestors, and everyone was very happy.
Jin Yungui said: "The fall of Goryeo is imminent. We have been away from China for a long time. Now is the time to serve the country of our ancestors!"
