Tian Yue
Tian Yue () (751 – March 26, 784), formally the
Prince of Jiyang (), was a Chinese military general, monarch, and politician who, from 782 to 784, claimed the title of Prince of Wei independent from the Tang regime. Prior to that, he had already been ruling Weibo Circuit (魏博, headquartered in modern
Handan,
Hebei) in ''de facto'' independence from the Tang imperial government as its military governor (''
Jiedushi''), having succeeded his uncle
Tian Chengsi in 779. In 784, his cousin
Tian Xu — a son of Tian Chengsi's — assassinated him and succeeded him shortly after he had nominally resubmitted to Tang imperial authority.
