Máng’s father was King Huai of Xia, son of the King Zhu of Xia.

Mother of Máng was an unknown lady, consort of Huai.

He had a consort who bore him a son Xie. Máng’s grandsons were King Jiōng and wise King Bù Jiàng.

Máng took the throne after his father’s death, in the year of Renshen (壬申). He celebrated his inauguration by giving precious jades to all his vassals.

In the 33rd year of his regime, the Shang Vassal Zihai (子亥) moved his capital from Shangqiu (商丘) to Yin (殷) for the very first time. According to the Bamboo Annals, Máng caught a big fish when he was sailing in the East China Sea.

His son succeeded him.
