Linyi Fortune Telling _ Linyi Fortune Telling

(Missing) Qi is not among the top 100 surnames in Taiwan Province Province 100. In ancient times, "Qi" and "Ci" were the same word. A book "Looking for Surnames" said: "Qi and () are the same, after being an official." At that time, when teenagers reached the age of fifteen, they had to hold a rite of passage and tie a knot in their hair. The Guan family was formed by the descendants of Guan who took the official position as their surname. Later, in the movement of changing the official surname after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne in the early Ming Dynasty, it evolved into a single surname. Regarding the history of the Qi family, there was a monument in the tomb of the ancestor of the Qi family in Beiligou, Laiwu, Shandong Province, which recorded that Hongwu moved to Lion from Linyi in the second year and lived alone. This may be the origin of the single surname Qi. At present, the ancestral home of most Qi surnames in China is Laiwu. The Qijia family in Yangzhuang, Laiwu, Shandong Province also has an epitaph, which reads: The ancestors were uncles at the beginning, and they avoided chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and took their sons from Jianghuai to settle in Yangzhuang, Laiwu, Shandong Province. Therefore, the surnames of Qi and Guan are homologous, which can be seen in Longxi (now Lintao South, Gansu Province) and Tianshui (now Tianshui City, Gansu Province).
