Shu Yu of Tang

Ji Yu, commonly known as "Yu, [Royal] Uncle of Tang" (Chinese: 唐叔虞; pinyin: Táng Shū Yú), was the founder of the Tang state (later renamed "Jin" by his son and successor, Ji Xie).

According to the Records of the Grand Historian, one day, King Cheng of Zhou was playing with his younger brother, Prince Yu.

King Cheng of Zhou suddenly picked up a parasol tree leaf and gave it to Prince Yu.

The young king thought it was reasonable and gave the recent conquered called Tang land, west of modern Yicheng County in Shanxi, to his brother, Prince Yu.
