Study On The Bureaucratic Clan In Fengcheng County During The Southern Song Dynasty Period

Since ancient times,China has been a nation that attaches importance to kinship,especially in the construction of kinship un and Fan families,through the use of emerging materials and the corresponding literature,which have a certain economic power and form a certain degree of faand blood relations.The construction of kinship cannot avoid the topic of family.Based on the many achievements of the Song Dynasty families,this paper studies the more prominent bureaucratic families in the Fengcheng area,such as the Xu,Smily size,and the family gradually forms a family network in the Fengcheng area of the Southern Song Dynasty through the travel between male members of the family and the marriage between male and female members of each family.This paper mainly analyzes and studies the rise and fall process of the Fan,Xu and Sun families in Fengcheng area and the various social relations formed between these families.The Sun family shows a strong local color,the Sun clan is only Sun Fa in the Northern Song Dynasty,after entering the Southern Song Dynasty,more and more people in the clan engaged in business,successively Sun Bei,Sun Bowen,Sun Juezhong Jinshi,the Sun family did not choose to expand their social network after the Shi Shi,but basically active in the locality,while maintaining their economic advantages,still attach importance to the education of the children in the clan,such a dual-track policy has an important role in the continuation of a family.The Sun clan has always been active in the countryside and is not so diligent about the outside world,but it is not that the Sun clan people do not care about the external world.However,during the Two Song Dynasty,the Sun clan did not have a particularly prominent person in the officialdom,so the conditions for the Sun clan to expand the social network outward did not exist;The Xu family successively had Xu Jingsun and Xu Luqing,two middle-ranking scholars,and held the highest ranks,of which Xu Jingsun was the official of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu,who was deposed because of his disobedience to Jia Xiandao’s will in the matter of the Gongtian Law.Xu Luqing went to the Baozhang Pavilion to be systematized and knew the Ning Mansion,and had a close relationship with Fan Yingling,and Fan Yingling’s epitaph was written by him at Du Fan’s request.The Xu family has a relatively close marriage relationship with the Fan family,the Huang family,and the local wealthy Gan family and the Jie family;The Fan family was originally from Qiantang,and in the fifth dynasty period,in order to escape the war,they moved to Fengcheng and gradually developed in Fengcheng,becoming a local wealthy family.After reaching a certain economic strength,he began to advocate his children to engage in business.The appearance of Fan Yingling made Fan’s reach its peak.After the fall of Fan Yingling,although the Fan family had some declines,they were still able to gain a foothold in Fengcheng with strong economic strength,and the Fan family had a marriage relationship with the Huang,Sun,Zhou and Xu families in Fengcheng County,but their in-law relationship was not limited to Fengcheng County,but also extended to the area of Lin chuan city.In general,the bureaucratic families in the Fengcheng area are not large in scale,and there are no such giant families.The instability of the children of the various families in their careers,coupled with the fact that the economy of the Fengcheng area was not developed,so the Feng cheng area could not establish a developed economy and a developed network of people like the Si ming city,and the bureaucratic families in the Fengcheng county area were not so enthusiastic about public affairs.Obviously,the theory of "self-existent local elite groups" has no place in Fengcheng County.Of course,this also reflects the development of local society in the Southern Song Dynasty,which is very different and cannot be generalized.
