- Qián was the head of the Hán clan since 409 BC. With the separation of the Hán domain from the State of Jin (403 BC), he was elevated to the position of zhūhóu (諸侯), meaning the feudal nobility, assuming the title of hóu (侯).
- According to the Historical Records, Āi hóu was killed in 371 BC. This event is also recorded in the Bamboo Annals―Modern Edition under 374 BC, while the Bamboo Annals―Old Edition implies that Āi hóu died in 375 BC. The subsequent reigns up to the assumption of the title of wáng, with the lengths as given in the Historical Records, were adjusted accordingly. The dates found in the Historical Records are in parentheses.
- This ruler is named Xuānhuì wáng in the Historical Records despite the fact that originally he bore the title of hóu. The Bamboo Annals―Old Edition in the entry for 326 BC mentioned Wēi hóu of Zheng (鄭威侯) and Xuān wáng of Zheng (鄭宣王), the capital of Han, implying that Wēi hóu was probably the name of Xuānhuì wáng before the assumption of the title of wáng.
