He Yan
According to historical sources it is widely believed that He Jin had at least one son, He Xian (), who survived the downfall of the He family in 189, and that He Xian had a son, He Yan ( 196–249). As He Xian died early, his wife Lady Yin () remarried and became a concubine of the warlord Cao Cao, who adopted He Yan as a son. However, He Yan was buried at Lujiang when one's place of burial was customarily supposed to be his ancestral home, which contradicted the fact that He Jin was from Nanyang; so He Yan was probably a grandson of He Miao, as what Weilue suggested, while it was recorded that there had actually been several families of Zhu clan, which might be the clan that He Miao was from, at Lujiang during Eastern Han.
