Lý dynasty
Nguyễn Bặc's son Nguyễn Đê survived the tragedy of 979 A.D. and later became a battle-buddy of a commander of the Imperial Guards (Điện Tiền Chị Huy Sứ) named Lý Công Uản. With Nguyễn Đê's support Lý Công Uẩn deposed the unpopular Emperor Lê Ngọa Triều, and ascended the throne as the first emperor of the Later Lý dynasty. Following their forebearer's footsteps Nguyễn Đê and his sons remained loyal servants of the Lý dynasty.
