Heavenly King

秋，七月，天王使宰咺來歸惠公仲子之賵。 In autumn, during the 7th month, the Heavenly King was brought to tears and bestowed a contribution to the funerary expenses of Duke Zhong's son.

Yang helped occupy the Dongting Lake area in the modern-day Hunan Province with some 80,000 other soldiers before Song forces arrived.

Following the seventh Song offensive in 1135, rebel defenses around Dongting Lake were broken, leading to the destruction of Yang Yao's "kingdom" and his own death.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's origins were deeply rooted in quasi-nationalism and religious zeal, with Hong having stated that he had received direct orders from God to become king.

In Korea the term is used as a title for Hwanung, the legendary founder of Gojoseon,[14] while in Vietnam it is used to refer to the mythical folk hero Thánh Gióng.
