The origin of Zhu surname

Zhu's family began in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and later became the ancient emperor Zhuan Xu's Levin. Lu Zhong, the great grandson of the ancient emperor Zhuan Zhu, had six sons. The fifth son was named An, and Dayu gave it to Cao.

After the Shang Dynasty was destroyed and the Zhou Dynasty was established, Cao, a descendant of Feng 'an, took refuge in Zhu (now Zoucheng City, Shandong Province), established Zhu and became a vassal of Lu. Zhu Guo is also known as Zou Guo, also known as Zhulou. There are Feixian, Zoucheng, Tengzhou, Jinxiang and other counties and cities in Shandong, and the capital is chasing (now the southeast suburb village of Qufu, Shandong). In 6 14 BC, Zhu Wengong moved to Yidi (now Wangcheng, southeast of Zoucheng, Shandong). By the mid-Warring States period, it was destroyed by the State of Chu, and the nobles of the State of Guo took the country as their surname, namely Zhu. Later, the descendants of Guo Guojun went to town for their surname Zhu.
