成帝復立雲兄俚為城陽王，王莽時絕。 Emperor Cheng revived the title for Liu Li, Prince Yun's elder brother, but the line died out under Wang Mang.

時悼惠王後尚有城陽王在，文帝憐悼惠王適嗣之絕，於是乃分齊為六國，盡立前所封悼惠王子列侯見在者六人為王。 The king of Chengyang still survived among Prince Daohui's descendants; pitying the extinction of the legitimate Qi succession, Emperor Wen divided Qi into six kingdoms and invested all six of Prince Daohui's living sons who had previously held marquisates as kings.
