A native of Liang in the Western Han Dynasty. When he was young, he was employed in a restaurant, but was later robbed and made into a slave. Later he became the official of Liang Wang.

He was sentenced to death by the officials.

Luan Bu said: "Peng Yue is a good friend of mine. He was killed for a trivial matter. The ministers here are worried that they will be killed for a trivial matter like Peng Yue. I am the same, so it is better to arrive early. Kill me."
