mr=Piyu-wangBiyu of Baekje (?-455, r. 427-455) was the 20th king of
Baekje , one of theThree Kingdoms of Korea .According to the "
Samguk Sagi ", he was the eldest son of the 19th king Guisin.The traditional dates of Biyu's rule are based on the "
Samguk Sagi ". On the basis of more contemporaneous Chinese records, Best (1979) has suggested that the years428 or429 –455 are more plausible.In
430 , Chinese chronicles record a tribute mission arriving at the Song dynasty court from King Biyu. The court then confirmed Biyu in the titles conferred upon his father. Additional tribute missions were sent in440 ,443 , and450 .Within the
Korean peninsula , Biyu sought to strengthen Baekje’s relationship withSilla , exchanging ambassadors in433 and434 . Although Silla was a protectorate of Goguryeo at this time, Silla and Baekje now allied themselves against Goguryeo (Naje Dongmaeng Hangul :나제동맹Hanja :羅濟同盟).References
