Notes
- General Note:
- Jiang Tai Gong (1210-1120 BC), also known as Jiang Ziya or Jiang Lushang, is said to be descended from the Yellow Emperor. He was one of the central figures in the historical and mythological Battle of Mu between the tyrant King Zhou of the Shang dynasty and King Wu5 usually said to be the founder of the Zhou dynasty. A brave and fearless general he slaughtered his enemies mercilessly, but afterwards raised them to the status of gods. (See print number 89) Formerly in the service of King Zhou, he became disillusioned with the tyrant, and entered the service of Xi Bai (1231-1135 BC) or King Wen as his counsellor, and later became the most able minister of King Wen’s son King Wu. In gratitude King Wu honoured him with a princedom in perpetuity. His picture is pasted up in houses in order to ward off evil words and render them harmless.
