Original text:

Is it inevitable? A wise person does not need to be expensive, and a kind person does not need to live long. Isn’t it inevitable? The benevolent must have successors. The two will be happy! I heard that Shen Baoxu said: "The crowd of people can defeat heaven, and the destiny of heaven can also defeat humans." Those who talk about heaven in the world do not wait for its determination but seek it, so they regard heaven as vast, good people are lazy, and evil people Yisi. The longevity of Robber Zhi and the misfortune of Kong Yan are all undecided by heaven. Pines and cypresses are born in mountains and forests, and at the beginning they are trapped by basil and cattle and sheep. But at the end, if they last for a thousand years without changing, this is destiny. The rewards of good and evil will be passed on to the descendants, and they will be determined for a long time. I have examined it based on what I have seen, heard, and heard, and it must be judged.

When a country is about to prosper, it must have ministers who are virtuous in the world and will give generously without losing their reward. Then their descendants will be able to share the blessings of the world with the Lord who keeps peace. Therefore, the minister of the Ministry of War, the king of Jin, appeared during the Han and Zhou Dynasties. He had experienced Taizu, Taizong, civil and military loyalty and filial piety. Gai tasted the three locust trees in his hand in the court and said: "One of my descendants must be the Three Lords." Then, his son Wei Guowen, Zhenggong, the Prime Minister Zhenzong, was between Jingde and Xiangfu. When the court was clear and the world was quiet, he enjoyed He was blessed with good fortune and fame for eighteen years. Today I keep things in people's hands, and I will take them tomorrow and see if I can get them or not. But Jin Gong cultivates virtue in his own body and repays it to heaven. It will take decades to get it, just like holding a contract, hand in hand and pay. I think the fruit of knowing heaven is certain. Instead of meeting Duke Wei, I met his son Yi Min Gong. He served Emperor Renzong with direct advice and served as an attendant on the general for more than thirty years. However, he was not satisfied with his virtue in his position. Will Heaven revive the Wang family? How many virtuous descendants there are. In the world, there is a Jin Gong who compares with Li Qijun. His talent and straightforwardness are comparable to those of Li Qijun. However, Qixun's theft case Jifu and his grandson Deyu are famous and wealthy, slightly on par with the Wang family. However, the loyal people are not as kind as Wei Gong and his son. From this point of view, the Wang family's blessings are endless. Gong, the son of Duke Yi Min, traveled with me. He was fond of virtue and literary, and he devoted his life to his family. I am recording it. The inscription says:

Oh no! Wei Gong's career is as cute as Sophora japonica. Diligence in sealing will last forever. Since we are true to each other, we will be flat in all directions. Returning to his home, the courtyard is full of locust trees. We, the villains, are not as good as the day. If you shoot sharply at the right time, the emperor will be merciful and virtuous. A common man is lucky enough to reap something without sowing. Without gentlemen, how can a country be established? To the east of the royal city is the residence of Jin Gong. The three gloomy locust trees are the only symbol of virtue. Oh no!

Reference translation:

Will God definitely show his will? But why are virtuous people not necessarily rich, and benevolent people not necessarily longevity? Doesn’t God necessarily reveal His will? But those who do good and benevolent people will definitely have good offspring. Which of these two statements is correct? I heard Bao Shenxu once said: "Man-made factors can change the destiny, and destiny is better than human factors." People in the world who talk about the way of heaven do not wait for God's will to be fully expressed before asking for it, so they think that God is ignorant and ignorant. of. Good people are lazy because of this, and evil people are presumptuous because of this. Robber Zhi could live a long life, but Confucius and Yan Hui were in trouble. This was because God had not yet expressed his true will. Pines and cypresses grow in mountains and forests. At first they were besieged by basil and trampled by cattle and sheep, but in the end they remained evergreen all year round and did not fade after thousands of years. This is the nature given to them by God. Regarding the retribution for good and evil to people, some will not be shown until future generations. This has also been determined by God for a long time. Based on what I saw and heard, I verified that God’s will will definitely be revealed. This is clear and unquestionable.

When a country is about to prosper, there must be ministers who have accumulated good deeds from generation to generation and have done great good deeds without receiving blessings. However, their descendants will be able to enjoy the blessings of the Taiping monarchs who follow the laws of the previous kings. The blessings of the world. The late Duke of Jin Wang You, Minister of War, was prominent between the Later Han and Later Zhou dynasties. He served in the Taizu and Taizong dynasties. He was loyal and filial in both civil and military affairs. People all over the world expected him to serve as prime minister. However, Wang You was not honest due to his integrity. Ah, it is not tolerated by the world. He once planted three locust trees in the courtyard with his own hands and said: "My descendants will definitely be among the three nobles in the future.

"Later, his son Wei Guowenzhenggong (Wang Dan) became prime minister during the reigns of Emperor Zhenzong's Jingde and Xiangfu. At that time, the court's politics were clear and the world was peaceful. He enjoyed fortune and glory for eighteen years.

Now if you leave something with someone else and pick it up the next day, you may or may not get it. But the Duke of Jin cultivates his own virtue and seeks blessings from God. After a few decades, he will definitely get it. It was like holding a contract and handing it over with my own hands. Therefore, I knew that God’s will would definitely be revealed.

I didn’t have time to see Wei Guogong (Wang Dan), but I met his son Yimin Gong. When he served Emperor Renzong, he was outspoken and dared to advise, and he led troops abroad and served as servants at home for more than 30 years. This title is not worthy of his virtue. Will God make the Wang family prosperous again? Why do he have so many descendants? What about the wise men in the world? Some people compare the Duke of Jin (Wang You) with Li Qijun (the wise prime minister of the Tang Dynasty). Their talents and integrity are indeed comparable, and Li Qijun's son Li Jifu and grandson Li Deyu enjoy the same. The fame and wealth are similar to those of the Wang family, but their loyalty, kindness and kindness are not as good as those of Wei Gong and his son. From this, it can be seen that the Wang family's fortune is flourishing! I am friends with Wang Gong, the son of Duke Yi Min. He was good at poetry and prose, thus inheriting his family tradition, so I remembered him and said:

“Ah, how beautiful! Wei Gong's family business flourished together with the locust tree. Hard work must take one generation to grow. He assisted Zhenzong and brought peace to the world. He returned to his hometown to visit his family and stayed in the pavilion shade cage. We, the little people, only watch for opportunities to seek fame and fortune from morning till night, so how can we have time to cultivate our own virtues? I just hope that by some unexpected fluke, I can harvest without planting. How can a country be a country without gentlemen? To the east of the capital is the residence of the Duke of Jin. The lush three locust trees symbolize the benevolence of the Wang family. Ah, how wonderful! ”

Sanhuai Tang

San Huai Tang, also known as the San Huai Wang family, is the largest branch of the Wang family today. It is famous all over the world and has luxuriant branches. It is the Wang family in Taiyuan. The first branch of the sect. Sanhuaitang is the most prolific branch of the Wang family. In the Wang family genealogy directory of the "Comprehensive Catalog of Chinese Genealogy", the family tree named "Sanhuaitang" belongs to the Wang family. The total number of family trees is about 40.

1. The origin of Sanhuaitang

Wang Hu (also known as Wang You) was originally from Shen County (Daming Prefecture in the Song Dynasty, now part of Shandong Province). ), who was good at literature. During the Five Dynasties, he first served in the Jin Dynasty, and then in the Han and Zhou Dynasties. After the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, worshiped him as the censor. He was highly appreciated and his official position was constantly promoted. He moved to the capital and settled in Kaifeng between the third year of Qiande (965) and the second year of Kaibao (969) in the Song Dynasty.

The specific address of Wang Hu's settlement in Kaifeng is shown in "Bianjing" by Li Lian of the Ming Dynasty. "Relic Records" said it was outside Renhe Gate, and the "Song Dynasty Kao" of Zhoucheng in the Qing Dynasty said it was outside Wangchun Gate. Both Renhe Gate and Wangchun Gate actually refer to the area north of Guanzhong Street in Caomen.

In the second year of Kaibao in the Song Dynasty (969), someone reported that Weizhou Jiedushi Fu Yanqing was planning a rebellion. The Shen County area belongs to Daming Prefecture. Song Taizu wanted Wang Hu to return to his hometown in rich clothes, and promised to act "cheaply", and the real intention of promising Zhao Pu (some say Wang Pu) was to remove the talisman. Wang Hu knew it well. After the great name Hu Zhi took over, he made overt and secret investigations, but found no real evidence, and there was no evidence for it for several months. Wang Hu told the emperor directly that Fu Yanqing had no plot to treason. Learning from the lessons of the Jin and Han (Fifth Dynasty) emperors who killed innocent people indiscriminately, Taizu was very dissatisfied and transferred Wang Hu to Xiangzhou. Since then, Wang Hu's promise to be promoted to prime minister has certainly failed. Before going to Xiangzhou to take office, he planted three locust trees in his house and said, "Some of my descendants will be the Three Lords." "Based on our modern thinking, we can infer Wang Hu's mood at that time. It is very likely that he was a little angry that he could not become the prime minister. It may be that "even if I can't be ranked among the three princes, there must be some of my descendants who can be the prime minister and rank among the three princes." Of course, Wang Hu’s words can also be considered as his confidence or foresight, but there is no doubt that he compared San Huai to San Gong.

The subsequent facts were as expected. His son Wang Dan became prime minister during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty, making his prediction come true. Sanhuaitang not only became the name of Wang Hu's branch, but also became a very important branch of the entire Wang family - the Sanhuai Wang family.

Bao Gong entered Xianyang in the west and was passed down to Duke Wei for four generations. Wei had ten sons. The third son Luo Gong was the governor of Luzhou. The eighth son of Luo Gong was passed down to Yan Gong and became the Liyang Order of Huazhou in Tang Dynasty. Yan Gong Sheng Che was a Jinshi of the Later Tang Dynasty, and he was an official until Zuo Shi. Sheng You, the Duke of Che, was the ancestor of the Wang family of Sanhuai.

Youngong Shao was dedicated to the study of poetry, and he was suave and handsome. In the Tianfu year of the later Jin Dynasty, he met Sang Weihan in writing. Weihan praised him for his beautiful algae, and he became famous in the capital. Du Chongwei, the commander-in-chief of Ye, was appointed as the observation envoy. In the later Zhou Dynasty, he served as the magistrate of Wei County and Nanle County. When Taizu of the Song Dynasty came to the throne, he was promoted to be a supervisory censor. Later, he was added to the Jixian Academy to compile and transfer it to Wai Lang, a member of the household department. By the time of Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, he knew the two prefectures of Hezhong and Kaifeng. He complained about his illness and became the minister of the Ministry of War. Yougong was born during the wars of the Five Dynasties, and throughout the Later Jin, Later Zhou and Song dynasties, he was famous for his civil and military loyalty and filial piety. When the official Yougong lived in the east of Bianliang City, he built a house outside Renhe Gate. He tasted three locust trees and placed them in the courtyard, saying that some of his descendants would be the Three Dukes. Later, Wang You's descendants were called "Sanhuai Wang Family" because of this.

Since Hugong, the Wang family of Sanhuai has held hairpins and tassels one after another. They have been officials in successive generations. Their descendants have been assigned to various places, and their descendants are scattered at home and abroad.

Explanation on the controversial origins of the Sanhuai lineage

The characters of the Sanhuai lineage from Wang Yan to Wang Gong in the late Five Dynasties and the Northern Song Dynasty, regardless of historical records or genealogical information They are relatively complete and detailed, which is related to the fact that the Northern Song Dynasty was a stable society and the Sanhuai Wang family was in its heyday. Therefore, the research on the Sanhuai lineage focuses on the period before the Northern Song Dynasty and after the Song Dynasty's southern migration. During the Five Dynasties period before the Northern Song Dynasty, political power changed frequently, the noble families were in chaos, and most of the surname lineages were broken. Although the Shangshuo lineage of the Wang family of Sanhuai continues, there are two points of divergence. Some people think that the Sanhuai lineage should be linked to the Langya lineage after Wang Yuan, and the other part thinks that it should be linked to the Taiyuan lineage after Wang Wei. As for the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Sanhuai Wang family of the Song Dynasty migrated south to this day. Since many descendants of the Song Dynasty migrated southward, many of them moved north or stayed in the Central Plains. After that, the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties spread around and flourished. Historical records are difficult to record, and genealogies from various sources disagree, so it is difficult to sort out the Sanhuai lineage, which is about 900 years old.
