(1) Sun Suogai, who is a descendant of Ji. According to the Biography of the Three Kingdoms and the River Table, "Sun Quan was burned by Sun Kuang and lacked military service, and the other was Shi Ding." Therefore, among the descendants of China, especially in the south, some of them were descendants of Ji, because they came from their eldest son, Kang Shu.
