Xiaohuyan came into Tanglang only in the Republic Era (introduced mainly via the Qingdao and Jinan Guoshuguan) and is certainly not listed in any of the old manuscripts. It's really a longfist import.
Pretty much nothing remains that pre-dates Liang Xuexiang and Li Zhijian (AKA Sanjian). There are some forms in Tongbei TL that match the names from the old manuscripts but they are most likely retrofit. In reality, most of what's still around comes from Jiang Hualong, Song Zide and Wang Yunsheng. On the QX side, a lot can be attributed to Luo Guangyu and Wang Chuanyi. The curriculum exploded in Shanghai.
