After the Qin and Han dynasties, the Ai clan migrated to Lintao, Tianshui, Henan, Pingyu, Luoyang and other places in present-day Gansu, and gradually became the local wang clan.

During the Northern Wei Dynasty, under the impetus of the Sinicization reform, the Ai clan people who changed their surnames from the Jin clan migrated to Luoyang (now Henan), the new capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and merged with the local people surnamed Ai, making the Ai family in Henan County more prosperous and prosperous. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the people surnamed Ai migrated south to escape the war, settled in the southern provinces of Anhui, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Hubei, Hunan, etc., and some migrated to present-day Fujian.
