子遂凝、遂雍，事唐皆為刺史。 His sons Sui Ning and Sui Yong both served Tang as prefects.

潞王從珂反於鳳翔，時遂雍為西京副留守，留守王思同率諸鎮兵討鳳翔，戰敗東歸，遂雍閉門不內，悉封府庫以待潞王。 When Li Congke, Prince of Lu, rose at Fengxiang, Sui Yong was deputy intendant of the Western Capital. Wang Sitong marched the circuit armies against him, was beaten, and retreated east; Sui Yong shut the gates, sealed the treasury, and waited for Congke.

潞王見遂雍，握手流涕，由是事無大小皆與圖議。 Congke met Sui Yong with clasped hands and tears; from then on every weighty matter passed through him.

廢帝入立，拜遂雍淄州刺史，以鄩兄琪之子遂清代遂雍為西京副留守。 When the Deposed Emperor took the throne, Sui Yong was made prefect of Zibo; Sui Qing, son of Xun’s elder brother Qi, replaced him as deputy intendant of the Western Capital.
