沖母，梁武帝妹新安穆公主，卒於齊世，武帝以沖偏孤，深所鍾愛。 Chong's mother was Princess Xin'an Mu, a sister of Emperor Wu of Liang. She died in Qi times, and the emperor, seeing that Chong had been left partially orphaned, doted on him.

[文]帝女新安穆公主早薨，[10]天監初王氏無追拜之事。 [Wen] Emperor's daughter Princess Xin'an Mu died young; [10] at the start of Tianjian the Wangs were given no retrospective title.

[文]帝女新安穆公主早薨據《南史》改。 On "[Wen] Emperor's daughter Princess Xin'an Mu died early": emended per the Southern Dynasties history.

王沖傳言其母為梁武帝妹新安穆公主，與此合。 Wang Chong's biography says his mother was Liang Wudi's sister Princess Xin'an Mu, which matches.
