李白 / Li Bai

李白 / Li Bai enters the wiki through 《资治通鉴·周纪》95丨长平之战后秦国为什么没有灭了赵国（4） as a later poetic admirer of 虞卿’s friendship toward 魏齐. The episode uses him not for a full Tang biography but as a reception lens: Li Bai is the reader who sees abandoned office, sudden trust, and life-risking loyalty as heroic.

That lens matters because it contrasts with 荀悦 and 王安石. Xun Yue worries that private loyalty erodes office duty; Wang Anshi sees the danger of high political position and sudden disaster; Li Bai preserves the affective glamour of 贵族义气与国家秩序冲突.

The page is source-scoped until later materials develop Li Bai independently. Here he is mainly a marker for how Warring States friendship stories could be re-aestheticized as noble spirit in later literature.
