《孟子》 / Mencius
《孟子》 / Mencius is the classical text through which 30.孟子:战国愤青的赤子之心 reconstructs [[Mengzi|孟子 / Mencius]] as a political speaker. The episode treats the book not as exam material or a storehouse of isolated sayings, but as a sequence of confrontations with rulers, students, rival teachings, and the moral vocabulary of [[WarringStatesPeriod|战国时期]] politics.
The source uses the text’s opening with [[LiangHuiWang|梁惠王]] to frame [[RighteousnessOverProfit|righteousness over profit]], its stories around [[QiXuanWang|齐宣王]] to frame compassion and [[WangdaoVsBadao|王道 versus 霸道]], and its statements on tyrants and Heaven to frame Mencian People-Based Legitimacy / 孟子的民本合法性. It also keeps the text imperfectly historical: Mencius’s early life remains uncertain, and the episode treats some anecdotes as later or source-scoped rather than secure biography.
