太祖子八人：莊宗長子也，次曰存美、存霸、存禮、存渥、存乂、存確、存紀。 Taizu had eight sons: Zhuangzong first, then Cunmei, Cunba, Cunli, Cunwo, Cunyi, Cunque, and Cunji.

同光三年十二月辛亥，詔封存美等七人為王。 On xinhai in the twelfth month of Tongguang 3, Cunmei and the other seven were made princes.

蓋存霸、存渥、存紀與莊宗同母也，存美、存乂、存確、存禮不知其母名氏號位。 Cunba, Cunwo, and Cunji shared Zhuangzong’s mother; the mothers of the others are unknown.

存美封邕王，存霸永王，存禮薛王，存渥申王，存乂睦王，存確通王，存紀雅王。 Cunmei was Prince of Yong, Cunba Prince Yong, Cunli Prince of Xue, Cunwo Prince of Shen, Cunyi Prince of Mu, Cunque Prince of Tong, Cunji Prince of Ya.
