他逃亡的故事是这样的，王子带是周惠王的儿子，与周襄王同母异父，他的母亲名叫惠后。惠后在世时，周惠王非常宠爱他，所以周襄王对他也感到很害怕。
在鲁僖公十一年夏天，王子带召集了扬、拒、泉、皋和伊洛的戎人一起进攻周朝都城，他们成功地进入了都城，然后烧毁了东门。秦军和晋军来救援，但到了秋天，晋惠公就让戎人与周襄王讲和。
第二年夏天，因为王子带引起的混乱，周襄王派兵讨伐他。秋天的时候，King Zhi fled to the state of Qi.
The next year, King Wu sent an envoy named Zhong Sun Qiu to visit the state of Qi and mention King Zhi's actions. However, Zhong Sun Qiu did not discuss King Zhi with King Wu, and when he returned to Qi, he told Duke Huan that it would take at least ten years for King Wu's anger to subside before he would be willing to recall his brother.
Fourteen years later, a minister named Fu Chen advised King Wu to summon his uncle back from exile. He quoted a line from the Shijing: "When neighbors are harmonious, their kin will be friendly." He pointed out that if they didn't reconcile with their own family members first, how could they expect other states' rulers to obey them? Moved by these words, King Wu summoned Prince Bi back from Qi.
However, after Prince Bi returned home and began an affair with Queen Yuesi (a princess of Di), who was favored by the king but had been deposed. The queen was furious and convinced two ministers named Wujingzi and Taosuoyi who were leading Di troops in battle against Zheng)to turn on him. They attacked Duke Xiangwang in 636 BCE while he was away fighting against Di forces led by Wujingzi and Taosuoyi. The duke fled his capital but eventually returned when it became clear that there was no support among his people for killing him as well.
In 635 BCE during the reign of Duke Xiangwang's successor Duke Yinwang (Xiang Wang died without issue), Prince Bi declared himself king but lived in seclusion in Warmo Palace while claiming power over all China under control of various regional warlords such as those ruled by Marquis Wenxiang or Lord Jingchou until finally being killed along with his mother-in-law Princess Yuesi at Xi city during a coup orchestrated by Chieftain Gaozhuo supported by Emperor Qinmu during which time Emperor Zhouxian escaped into exile whereupon peace restored following intervention from Marquis Wenxiang & Lord Jingchou sending troops together defeating both sides ending rebellion known historically as Rebellion of Son Biao or Son Rebellion
