Qin Qiong ranks third, but why is he called "the second brother"?

In Shandong, "Second Brother" is an honorific title, because Wen has experienced legends and made outstanding contributions all his life, so he is called Second Brother.

In the ballad "The Great Sui and Tang Dynasties" in the Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as "Xing Tang Biography"), it was said that on September 22nd, the second year of Emperor Yang Di's great career, 46 people including Wei Zhi and Qin Qiong were sworn in as champions, and Jin Lan was justly married, which was historically called "Forty-six friends of Jia Jialou". At that time, Qin Qiong was second only to his eldest brother Wei Zhi. Therefore, Qin Qiong's "second brother" started from these "sworn brothers".
