Marshal Tianpeng and Tota Li Tianwang in Journey to the West, who has a more important official posi

The official position of the Heavenly King of Tota Li is more important, and the position of Marshal Tianpeng is mainly to fight on the front line, so his position is similar to the position of a general, and the Jade Emperor can remove him from his official position with a word, so the official position of Marshal Tianpeng is not important.

It was the King of Tota Li, Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Bajie was beaten down from the world, without Marshal Tianpeng, the court did not change. But Li Tianwang is different, he is equivalent to the role of prime minister.

Li Tianwang's official position was more important, because he could be in charge of 100,000 heavenly soldiers, while Marshal Tianpeng could be in charge of 80,000 sailors.

Taoists say that Marshal Tianpeng is big, Taoism does not have Tota Tianwang, but there is Marshal Tianpeng, and Li Tianwang is big in Journey to the West.

Li Jing is the king of heaven, that is, he has been crowned the king of heaven, Nezha, Jin Zha Mu and Erlang God, all of them have to be dispatched by Li Jing! What Marshal Tianpeng is in charge of the sailors!

His surname is Li Mingjing, and he is the commander of the garrison in the Heavenly Palace. The three sons born, the eldest son Jinzha served the Buddha, the second son Muzha was the great disciple of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the South China Sea, and the third son Nezha served under his own account. In the early years, because of the rebellion with the third son Nezha, the Buddha gave him a relic Ruyi ** pagoda, which resolved the former feud between father and son, so he was called Tota Li Tianwang.

The father and son of the Li family have excellent martial arts, profound mana, and loyalty to the Jade Emperor, and enjoy a lofty and important position in the heavenly realm. Whenever there is a major event, the Jade Emperor must first appoint Li Tianwang to take command. Twice quelled the rebellion of Sun Monkey, both appointed him as the generalissimo of demon subjugation, and the 100,000 god generals under his command, such as the giant spirit god, the fish belly general, and the third prince of Nezha, were all elite soldiers and good generals under the command of the king, and helped the four Tang monks survive a lot of disasters on the way to learn the scriptures.

One of the commanders of the Heavenly Court.

Because in Journey to the West, King Tota Li is the main force of Heaven and is the main force of Heavenly Court, so the Jade Emperor relies on King Tota Li very much.

Because King Tota Li has a very good reputation and a particularly strong mana, the Jade Emperor relies on him very much.

In "Journey to the West", there are immortals with heads and faces in heaven, and we don't know how much. Tota Li Heavenly King is one of the important beings. The Jade Emperor relied heavily on King Tota Li because King Tota Li was very loyal and had a high level of martial arts.

Because the strength of the Tota Heavenly King is very high, he is the strongest among all the generals.

Wen has a hairy monk.

In "Journey to the West", each of the four heavenly gates of the heavenly court has a heavenly king, commonly known as the four heavenly kings. However, they are not fixed at one heavenly gate, but rotate through four heavenly gates. At the same time, the Heavenly Court also has a Tota Li Heavenly King, who is in charge of military affairs.

King Tota Li once led his troops to conquer Huaguo Mountain, but was defeated.

When the Jade Emperor sent 100,000 heavenly soldiers, he was led by the five heavenly kings, and Tota Li Heavenly King was only one of the five heavenly kings. The question is, it is the Four Heavenly Kings who are said to be good, why did Heavenly Court come up with the Five Heavenly Kings? There is an explanation that each king represents a direction, and the five kings symbolize the east, west, north, south, and middle.

Obviously, this statement is not reliable, in "Journey to the West", the division of labor between the Four Heavenly Kings and the Tota Li Heavenly King is very different. If you want to understand the secrets of the Five Heavenly Kings, you must first find out the secrets of the Tota Li Heavenly King. In fact, Tota Li Tianwang was added by some authors of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Song and Yuan dynasties, in various versions of Journey to the West, there was no role of Tota Li Tianwang. In his place was King Bishamon. In the Song Dynasty engraving book "The Poetry of the Tang Dynasty Sanzang Master", King Bishamen organized a scripture study project and gave the Tang monks and apprentices two important magic weapons, a tin staff and a bowl.

The bowl is similar to a sensor, as long as you pick up the bowl and shout at the king, the king of Bishamen will save them.

In the Yuan Dynasty "Journey to the West" miscellaneous drama, King Bishamen is even more powerful. After Sun Wukong went to heaven to steal the queen mother's peach and fairy clothes, it was the king of Bishamen who captured him in the lower realm. At this time, Sun Wukong was not powerful, and he was caught by Nezha.

At the same time, in this version, Nezha and Erlang are both sons of the Heavenly King of Bishamen.

So where did this king of Bishamen end up? In fact, the Heavenly King of Bishamen is the Northern Duowen Heavenly King among the four heavenly kings. Because the role played by King Bishamen in the Journey to the West story of the Yuan Dynasty was more important, this role was stripped away.

Some were incorporated into Guanyin Bodhisattva, and some were incorporated into the Jade Emperor.

In order to balance the relationship between the Duowen Heavenly King and the other three Heavenly Kings, he finally founded the Tota Li Heavenly King, integrated a part of the role of the Bishamen Heavenly King into Li Tianwang, and then made the Duowen Heavenly King, like the other three Heavenly Kings, become ordinary Heavenly Kings. As a result, the so-called Five Heavenly Kings were formed.

The reason for this situation is the result of the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism and the integration of Buddhism and Taoism in the Ming Dynasty. Many Buddhist gods have entered Taoism, and many Taoist gods have also entered Buddhism. Many people can't tell the relationship between them, so they confuse them.

In particular, the stories of Journey to the West are all stories that are circulated in the market, scattered among folk storytellers and drama actors, and it is even more difficult to distinguish them.

The author of "Journey to the West" has changed many people before and after, so when screening the stories in it, more of the story-based bridges are retained, and the story-less bridges are deleted, which eventually leads to the problem of unclear sectarianism. However, for contemporary people, judging the story of "Journey to the West" as an officialdom and a workplace story, the confusion of these Buddhist ways does not affect our understanding of the essence of the story.
