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.

陀弟司勳侍中整詣闕求哀，於是免陀死，除名為民，以其妻楊氏為尼。 Tuo's brother Zheng, Director of the Department of Merit and attendant-in-ordinary, pleaded at court for mercy. Tuo was spared death, reduced to commoner status, and his wife, Lady Yang, was made a nun.

陀弟整，官至幽州刺史，大業初卒，贈金紫光祿大夫，平鄉侯。 Tuo's brother Zheng rose to governor of You province, died early in the Daye period, and was posthumously honored as Grand Master of the Gold-Purple Light and Marquis of Pingxiang.
