being part of a religion-based government, he probably had been celibate for tens of thousands of years. Can you blame him for being such a horny pig:) ? Not to mention the very possibility of having his hands in the pants of the mistress of (their relationship was SO NOT innocent) Jade Emperor, the supposedly inviolable authority, was strong enough to push anybody over the edge, after all, it's bad, it's forbidden, and deep down, we all have a Monkey King inside us who is turned on by taboo.
A perfect illustration of Chinese style secularism. However power he might be, the Buddha and various Tao deities nevertheless rank below the Jade Emperor in the hierarchy of Journey to the West. Jade Emperor has little magic power, but he occupies the highest political position. Probably that's why all the high-ranking Tao deities ended up nowhere to be seen as the monkey wrecked the heaven. A attempted political coup de'tat I would say
So would you say that the Jade Emperor is only a figurehead? Seems like those who hold tangible power would be members of the military industrial complex, just to name one.
Well, I don't think he's a figurehead, though it's obvious that he's not an absolute monarchy as his title suggests. He has his own power base (the 10 K troop, all the generals, including the niece, he sent out to battle the monkey, obviously follow his order and are the forces he can count on), but it's not that powerful. On the other hand, he's powerful in a political way because he's the the head of the system and he's the guy every major faction
seems to accept. Kinda like a prime minister in a modern parliamentary system, or more precisely, the current Afghan president, there was an article on new york times yesterday about him, he had no power base of his own, no militia of his own, the Americans, the Brits, other countries that have troop in their country, the Russians, the Iranians, the drug lords and the warlords are all important players in his country, one on one, any one of them could easily depose him.
But he's the legitimate head of state of a country where there are lots of very powerful and not very united players, as a result, he can and will not become a dictator, but he's still very powerful simply because of his legitimacy and his office (he kicked infamous warlords out of the country) provided he's skillful in his political balancing act. In short, anybody who wants to kick him out would have the face the wrath of all other players who will inevitably suspect that this
player is trying to kick out the compromise candidate to grab the highest office for himself and they will act against the overly greedy player. Jade Emperor is kinda like him, though Jade Emperor is obviously not entirely powerless when it comes to hard power that's only loyal to him. But comparing to the Buddha and the Taoists, he's obviously no match for them. But he's the highest deity, and by playing skillful political game,
he can be very powerful, judging by the longevity of his reign, he must be a very shrewd politician. Monkey's success is a fluke, exception to the rule, even monkey was eventually successfully dealt with. As the monkey incident shows, he might not be powerful himself, but there are plenty of super powerful guys who are willing to do his bidding, not all of them are happy to help at any moment (the Taoist obviously bailed on him, as evidenced by monkey's later adventure, even a pet
of Laozi could own monkey in a real combat, you really think Laozi couldn't deal with the monkey when he was running amok) , but some of them always show up to help. (the Buddha saved the day this time, and it's not inconceivable that maybe in some other times, Buddha bailed and Laozi saved him)

算不上暗害忠良把,宫廷政变还差不多,老君的一个宠物后来随便偷两样东西都灭猴子和玩似的,随便一个天君菩萨的座骑欺负猴子都不费什么力气,怎么猴子造反的时候这些大仙们都藏起来了?怕是道家佛家合活造玉皇大帝的反把

@eatfastnoodle 一是,免得鸟尽弓藏。二是,其他人都借机打击好出头者。所以猴子闹时,其他人都在袖手旁观……不愧是名著,500多年前已揭示金字塔式组织的弱点:一有点什么事,大家都往上推……现在终于能看懂其内涵了。

@kenziQ
那是什么金字塔组织呀,金字塔组织能让西天这个至少名义上还是低于天庭的组织基本处于独立地位吗?玉帝是个很弱的共主,自身实力十分有限(十万天兵天将士),但是由于佛道都十分强大,所以产生这个妥协人选。没看真有事情,西天马上就来救驾了吗?道教袖手旁观,可后来的走势现实佛教明显整体占了上风,本来中土没有“真经”,结果佛教公然支持取了回来,道教面子上也是支持,不过暗地里放一堆妖怪下山捣乱,说明实际不支持,但不能公开反对说明这事情是政治上正确的。搞不好是玉帝给黑了以后为了打击道教支持的。结果好,本来因该道教的领地中土凭空引进了两个佛和一大堆经。
