Two members of the Sun clan reached the chancellorship. In Qinghe there was Maodao. In Wuyi there was Wo. The Jiang clan originally descended from the Flame Emperor; born beside the Jiang River, they took that river's name as their surname. Later generations adopted other surnames. During Yao's great flood, a descendant of Gonggong assisted Yu in controlling the waters and held office among the Four Peaks; because he presided over their rites he was honored as "Grand Peak," was made a feudal lord, and received the ancestral surname Jiang to carry on the Flame Emperor's line. A descendant, Grand Duke Wang, received Qi as his fief, but Tian He destroyed the state and the clan dispersed. Early in Han the Jiang clan, a great eastern family, was relocated to Guanzhong and settled in Tianshui.

Another tradition holds that a younger son of King Zhao was born with the character Yan on his palm and that King Kang enfeoffed him at Yancheng.

One member of the Hao clan reached the chancellorship. He was Chujun. The Xue clan traces its origin to the house of Ren. Yang, Zhuanxu's younger son and grandson of the Yellow Emperor, was enfeoffed at Ren; twelve generations later Xizhong was Director of Chariots under Xia, and Yu made him Marquis of Xue—at Xue County in Lu. Xizhong moved to Pi; twelve generations later Zhonghui returned to Xue and served Tang as Left Chancellor. Chen Hu and Zusi both belonged to this line. Seven generations after Zusi, Cheng moved the state to Zhi and renamed it the State of Zhi.

He had a son Yun, whose son Ang had a son Ni, Chief Minister of Chu. Ni's son Weng had a son Jian, who at the founding of Han proposed a plan to destroy Qing Bu and was enfeoffed as a lord of one thousand households.

His son Yong, styled Maochang, followed Shu's founding lord into Shu and became Administrator of Shujun.
