Talk:Family tree of Chinese monarchs (221 BCE – 453 CE)

Untitled

According to the Wei Shu and Tung Pa, the Cao family of Cao Wei were descended from Huangdi via Emperor Zhuanxu, from which the Cao family originated. They were of the same liniage as to Emperor Shun. Another account says that the Cao family was descended from Emperor Shun. This account was attacked by Chiang Chi who claimed it was people of the Tian 田 surname who were descended from Shun and not the Cao. He also claimed (Gui) Kuei 媯 was Shun's family name.

I'm sort of hesitant to put Shun as an ancestor of the Cao Wei monarchs because of the criticism by chiang Chi, but their descent from Zhuanxu doesn't appear to be challenged. Should I skip Shun and only put Zhuanxu or add both to the Cao Wei family tree?Sonny Fin (talk) 05:06, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

The recent edits

I have some points to make regarding the last edits.

(Han) Former Zhao

SMB99thx your edits are wrong. Liu Lu 劉綠 wasn't a primary cousin of Liu Yuan 劉淵. We know some of the ancestors of Liu Lu, and none of them is the chanyu Chizhishizhuhou. Liu Lu father was Liú Fáng 刘防, his grandfather was Liú Guǎng 刘广 and his great-grandfather was called Liú Liàng 刘亮. They were definitely not primary cousins.

• I was fooled by the page of Liu Yao actually.--SMB99thx XD (contribs) 06:14, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

Xia

Added a question mark because that is uncertain

Murong clan

Your edits are great, but the wife of Feng Hong should be excluded from the chart. We know nothing about her, Even the name is generic. We presume that she was from the clan, but she can be a daughter of anyone from the dozens (or more) of Later Yan princes. Not a presumably daughter of Murong Chui. I think that mentioning Tuoba Shiyijian and his wife here is not important. Just a redundant load. --Daduxing (talk) 19:00, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

I'll remove it--SMB99thx XD (contribs) 06:18, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

Murong Xiang

Murong Xiang wasn't a true ruler, he was a mere pretender. He wasn't a son of Murong Chui (that was a mistake on the chinese family tree witch was corrected after this chart was done). He was a obscure great-grandson of Murong Huang from an uncertain parents and grandparents. He is too unimportant to add it here. --Daduxing (talk) 04:23, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
