Sheng (surname)

The origin of the surname can be traced back to the leader of an ancient tribal alliance in China, named Zhisheng 知生.

In ancient classic literature such as "Zhuangzi" and "Gangjian Yizhilu," Yuchao, Suiren, and Zhisheng were referred to as the "Three Emperors."

Nowadays, Yuchao, Suiren, and Zhisheng are commonly respected as the "Three Emperors" as a title of honor for their contributions in later generations.

"Zhuangzi" mentioned that Yuchao, Suiren, and Zhisheng were the representative figures of three important eras in history.

The era of the Three Emperors represents an important development stage in human history, where Yuchao solved the problem of human settlement, Suiren solved the food problem, and Zhisheng began to teach people how to produce, thus opening the era of agricultural civilization.
