Who can provide Sima Qian's family background (genealogy)

Sima Qian was born in a middle and lower official family. Great-grandfather Sima Chang was an iron-fisted official when Qin Shihuang was the first emperor. Great-grandfather Sima Wuze was the "mayor" of Chang 'an in the early Han Dynasty. Zusima Xi, not an official, has grade nine and is the fifth doctor. His family may be the so-called "Han family" when Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty made a fortune by farming and animal husbandry, so he was able to buy a title. Sima Qian said that he was a "grandson of farming and reading rivers and mountains", which does not necessarily mean that he personally participated in farming and grazing.

On the Descendants of Sima Qian (ZT)

Sima Qian claimed to be "Longmen, the grandson of rivers and mountains" (Biography of Taishigong in Historical Records), and also claimed that his ancestors were all in Gaomen, which is now Hancheng, Shaanxi; But so far, there is no Sima here. According to the introduction of hancheng city Cultural Center, this village is only three miles away from Sima Qian's birthplace, and now it is Ghost Village, but the surnames of Tong and Feng have always called themselves Sima Hou. The inscription with the same surname Zuling is recorded as follows:

"Witzkin, Sima. The beginning of heaven and earth, emphasizing the Ministry of Lebanon. By the weekend, I lost my official position and tasted the classic historical pen. Go find Zhou and spread out elsewhere. Wrong in Qin, xia yang lived; If you like offspring, you will succeed. Officials and historians say that it is the son who writes history books. Burial history is steep and beautiful, and children are filial to Sun Xian. Shi Tong lived in Songyang for avoiding chaos; The national emblem is Nagato's grandson, just like his surname. Go back to my hometown and move to Xucun. You can't learn from the grave. From Mao to Jie, I know a little. "

This monument was built in the 22nd year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty, and originated from Rebuilding Taishi Hall written by Zhai, Governor of Hancheng in the 22nd year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty. The inscription said: "Since the eighth year of Kangxi, Taishigong Temple Fair has invited people, but Taishigong's birthday has not been obtained. A layman in Huashan knew the details from his own words, saying that Sima Zi's four pillars were Jia Yin, Chen Wu, Wu Geng and Xu Bing. He lived for 73 years and died on the fourth day of September in the year of Bing Yin. There are two sons, Long, Zi and Zhong; Second point, what is this word? Stone-faced grandson. Mang for the public, sealing ministers. Shi Tong avoided chaos and lived together in Songyang. Si Mahui is in the clique, and today's descendants are in Los Angeles, with the same surname; Still in Xiangyang, surnamed Ma. Guan's eighth son left 15 leaves of the Emperor, which caused the disaster of Liu Song and returned to the palace. The other woman is Mrs. Yang Chang. After the opening, it spread to Emperor II, and the first five generations ended, all of them were descendants of the eldest son. Taoist Sima Junshi, descendant Si Mahui, immortal, virtue is not in place. " After Emperor Song Wudi destroyed the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it was inevitable to kill the descendants of Sima. In order to avoid a series of disasters, the descendants of Sima changed their surnames to Tong and Feng and returned to Gaomen, which is very reasonable. As for Huashan Fangwaishi, it comes from anecdotes and legends. Although there is no historical record to test, it is not absurd, at least it can be used as a material for historians to study.
