During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Li clan of Longxi arose in the chaotic world, Li Huan established the Western Liang division side, after the fall of Western Liang, Li Bao's grandson Li Bao returned to Northern Wei and was reused, his six sons except one died early, the other five sons were all in Northern Wei, Li Bao's sixth son Li Chongguan zhiShang Shu servant, the most favored. Under the active participation and planning of Li Chong, the Qinghe Cui clan, the Fanyang Lu clan, the Taiyuan Wang clan, and the Xingyang Zheng clan were able to marry the Northern Wei royal family and become a descendant clan, which was designated as four surnames by Emperor Xiaowen of Wei, and the Li clan of Longxi also became the "five surnames" along with the "four surnames". In later generations, it developed into seven surnames and ten families. Among the many Li clans in Longxi, four of the four houses are the most prosperous. This is the Wuyang Room, Guzang Room, Danyang Room, and Dunhuang Room.
Let's first briefly look at the Guzang Fang Li clan: the ancestor Li Cheng, who was the great-grandson of Li Xuan, the King of Liangzhao of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was given the title of Marquis of Guzang, so this room was called Guzang Dafang, that is, the epitaph of later generations said that "the valve reader Guzang Dafang also".

Great-grandson Li Yiyan was the chancellor of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, and was a polymath. Yi Yan had a nephew, Li Shu, who had a clear name, but often felt that his official position was not worthy of his own door, so he wrote letters to people and tied his son, and only wrote "Longxi Li Shu" instead of his official position. Li Xing's son Li Xuandao (李玄道), was one of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Dynasty in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. His grandson Li Qi (李亶), a scholar of books, wrote a hundred volumes of the Ancient and Modern Neifan.

Men and women marry, do not mix with his surname, want to hire their clan, and give a generous gift of gold. Emperor Taizong of Tang had issued an edict to guard against his evil tendencies, and in the end he could not change it. In the meantime, those who have not yet reached it will know: "The surnames Cui, Lu, Li, and Zheng are gone, and Yu Fu He Qiu Ye!" "Only the beauty of the clan is not in the tone of the mouth, see Han Sushi Doctor, Heng Gong Ruye, people so much." Li Sui's nephew Li Wei (李蔚), the uncle of Qinghe Cui Cheng (崔程), was the chancellor of Emperor Wuzong of Tang, and his son Li Xun (李洵), the "ancestor of the Min Chinese Zhang" Huang Tao( "Huang Tao) was treated with scribe etiquette, and poetry treatises greatly invigorated the literary style of Mindi. Another nephew, Li Juchuan, was quick to move, and the neighbors of the clan were all sensational, and the name of Juchuan was known all over the world.

His poems are novel in conception and beautiful in style, especially some love poems and untitled poems that are written in a long and compassionate manner, beautiful and moving, and widely recited. However, some of the poems are too obscure and confusing to understand, so that "poets always love Xikun and hate no one to write Zheng Notes".

Throughout the Tang Dynasty, the four major housing systems of the Li clan in Longxi produced a total of ten prime ministers, who were honored with high merit and prosperity. The Guzang Fang Li clan accounted for four, they were: Li Yiyan (Tang Gaozong Zaixiang), Li Yi (Tang Suzong Zaixiang), Li Wei (Tang Xianzong Zaixiang), and Li Fengji (Tang Xianzong Zaixiang).
