初，信入關之後，複娶二妻，郭氏生子六人，善、穆、藏、順、陀、整，崔氏生獻皇后。 After Xin entered the passes he had taken two more wives. Lady Guo bore six sons—Shan, Mu, Zang, Shun, Tuo, and Zheng—and Lady Cui bore Empress Xian.

以其弟善為河內郡公，穆為金泉縣公，藏為武平縣公，陀為武喜縣公，整為千牛備身。 His brother Shan was made Duke of Henei, Mu Duke of Jinquan county, Zang Duke of Wuping county, Tuo Duke of Wuxi county, and Zheng an attendant of the Thousand-Ox Guard.

上以陀後之異母弟，陀妻楊素之異母妹，由是意陀所為，陰令其兄穆以情喻之。 Because Tuo was the empress's younger half-brother and his wife was Yang Su's younger half-sister, the emperor suspected Tuo and secretly had his brother Mu reason with him.
