The Wei clan descended from the Feng lineage.

Xian, four generations after Meng, rose to Han chancellor and Marquis Jie of Fuyang, and the family moved once more to Dulang in the Jingzhao commandery. He had a son Xuancheng, who also became chancellor. Xuancheng's son was Kuan. Kuan had a son named Yu. Yu was followed by Jun, who served as Director of the Masters of Writing under the Later Han.

The Guo clan descended from the Ji lineage. King Wu of Zhou granted Western Guo to King Wen's younger brother Uncle Guo and Eastern Guo to Uncle Zhong Guo. Western Guo lay between Yu and Zheng; when King Ping moved the capital eastward he stripped Uncle Guo's domain and gave it to Duke Wu of Zheng; later King Zhuang of Chu marched the army of Luhun against Zhou and charged the Zhou king with extinguishing Guo; King Ping then found Uncle Guo's collateral descendant Xu, enfeoffed him at Yangqu, and styled him Duke Guo. The name for the state of Guo was pronounced and written as the homophone Guo meaning 'outer moat' through a regular sound change, and the clan adopted the latter form as its surname. Late in the Later Han, Grand Minister of Agriculture Guo Quan of Dai lived at Yangqu and had a son named Yun. Yun had three sons: Zhun, Pei, and Zhen. Zhen served as Master of Ceremonies and was ennobled as Marquis of Changping. A later descendant of the line resettled in Yingchuan.
