The history book "Tongzhi Imperial Clan Six" records: "I am pregnant with the heart of Wang Sun, and then I am the heart of Chen." In Sima Qian's Historical Records, it is clearly written that "there is no queen in your heart." Although Chu Huaiwang never arrived in Changsha, the new capital, he was sent by Xiang Yu to hunt down Chen County (now Chenzhou, Hunan Province). Wen Ying, a famous scholar in the Han Dynasty, was quoted in the Collection of Historical Records: "There is a tomb of Yidi in Chen County, and there are many temples at the age of eighteen." Wen Ying was a figure in the late Han Dynasty. As she said, the sacrifice to Chu Huaiwang actually ran through the whole Han Dynasty. However, in Historical Records written by Sima Qian, a great historian of Han Dynasty, there is no special biography about Chu Huaiwang and Xiong Xin. This "mistake" made him widely criticized in later generations. Zhao Yi, a scholar in Qing Dynasty, has the most representative comments. He said, "Historical Records" did not set up a biography of Chu Huaiwang, which is the lack of pens. Chen She has a family, Xiang Yu has a history, although his heart is herding sheep, Henkel and Xiang Yu taste the north; Henkel actually obeyed his orders when he entered the customs. "From this perspective, Liu Han's royal family has great respect for Chu Huaiwang's outstanding achievements in the world. Although this can't avoid Liu's gratitude to those who entered the customs first, it plays a great role, but after all, it has saved a truly true sum for history.
Among the descendants and clans, there are people named after the city where their ancestors built their capital, which has been passed down from generation to generation, called Liu and Chen.

After Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, some people lived in Shanxi, and then gradually formed aristocratic families in Hedong (now east of the Yellow River in Shanxi).
