《史记》 / Shiji

《资治通鉴·周纪》04｜豫让 为智瑶复仇 uses 《史记》 through the 豫让 story in the assassins tradition. The important detail is Yu Rang’s explanation that he does not owe all patrons the same level of repayment: 智瑶 treated him as a “国士,” so his revenge follows patron-recognition reciprocity.

《史记》 / Shiji enters this wiki branch through 《资治通鉴·周纪》10丨 以家族单位 有蚂蚁吃大象的精神（1）, where the host uses it to supplement a blank 《资治通鉴》 year. The source says 周烈王’s second year has no Zizhi entry, then turns to the Shiji story of 太史旦 visiting 秦献公.

The page’s role is historiographical rather than encyclopedic. It marks a source-switching moment: when one chronicle is silent, another classical text may preserve a story, but the wiki should keep that evidentiary move visible.

《资治通鉴·周纪》10丨 以家族单位 有蚂蚁吃大象的精神（2） adds the reverse caution. The host says 司马光 may have followed 《史记》 when early Warring States chronology was already thin and disordered, so Shiji can be both a needed supplement and a source through which chronology drift enters later compilations.

《资治通鉴·周纪》10丨 以家族单位 有蚂蚁吃大象的精神（3） uses 司马迁’s judgment on Wei’s survival after 浊泽之战. In the episode’s reading, the key point is not only that 魏罃 wins, but that Han and Zhao’s incompatible plans prevent Wei from being partitioned or controlled.

《资治通鉴·周纪》11丨 世界风起云涌（1） again uses Shiji as a supplement to the terse chronicle. The host cites it for 魏罃 / 梁惠王 seeking peace with 齐国 after Qi attacks 魏国, and for Wei’s successful attack on 宋国 in 365 BCE.

《资治通鉴·周纪》11丨 世界风起云涌（2） uses Shiji in two targeted ways. First, it cites the 卫国 title story in which 卫成侯 demotes from duke to marquis, making the notice evidence for weak-state status demotion. Second, it uses Shiji’s expanded wording for 秦孝公’s opening agenda: repair government, care for the vulnerable, recruit warriors, and clarify merit rewards.

《资治通鉴·周纪》14丨齐威王 不鸣则已一鸣惊人 adds a sharper caution around Shiji itself. The host says 司马迁 had especially thin Qi materials, so Tian-family Qi succession and 齐威王’s date may have entered later tradition with serious errors. This becomes the source’s Qi Wei Wang chronology dispute.

《资治通鉴·周纪》17丨韩昭侯和申不害 uses Shiji again as a targeted supplement. The episode says 《资治通鉴》 does not record Qin’s same-year attack on Zhao’s Lin area, but 《史记》’s Zhao material does; the point is to support the source’s reading that Qin pressure was shared by Wei and Zhao.

《资治通鉴·周纪》21丨邹忌下阴招 田忌国外避难 adds Shiji as part of a wording comparison around 田忌’s political fall. The episode says Shiji and 《战国策》 use “欲为大事,” while Zizhi Tongjian uses “欲行事,” making the planted divination question read more clearly as a treason-coded signal.

《资治通鉴·周纪》23丨魏惠王 悔不用公叔之言 uses Shiji for the famous Shang Yang lodging anecdote. In the episode’s reading, 公孙鞅 / 商鞅 cannot stay at an inn without proof of identity because the innkeeper fears punishment under Shang Yang’s own law; this supplies the 作法自毙 branch.

《资治通鉴·周纪》24丨商鞅曰：我咋裂了 uses Shiji as the contrast text for resentment against Shang Yang. The episode says Shiji’s “宗室贵戚多怨望者” points mainly to royal kin and nobles, while 《资治通鉴》’s “人多怨之” makes resentment sound broader. That difference becomes the source’s main textual-variant political stakes case.

《资治通鉴·周纪》25丨赵良对商鞅说：你不配 uses Shiji for the fuller version of 赵良’s advice. Beyond the Zizhi Tongjian warning, Shiji has Zhao Liang propose that 公孙鞅 / 商鞅 return 商於, retire from office, and sponsor benevolent measures such as recruiting worthy people, supporting elders and orphans, honoring elders and fathers, raising meritorious officials, and respecting virtuous people. The episode records this as a richer off-ramp but doubts it would have saved Shang Yang after resentment had already accumulated.

《资治通鉴·周纪》29丨苏秦励志爽文：知识改变命运 uses Shiji as the developed biography source for 苏秦. The episode turns from 《资治通鉴》’s doubtful annalistic placement to 司马迁’s narrative of Su Qin studying under 鬼谷子, failing after formal study, being mocked by family, and rebuilding through closed-door self-study.

《资治通鉴·周纪》30丨苏秦的“开挂”人生 uses Shiji for the text name 《周书阴符》 in Su Qin’s second study phase. The episode contrasts that label with 《战国策》’s 《太公阴符之谋》 and treats the Shiji-linked 《阴符》 line as more fitting for Su Qin’s later 揣摩 than the 《六韬》 identification.

《资治通鉴·周纪》32丨“史上首位联合国秘书长”苏秦 returns to Shiji for the more dramatic version of 苏秦’s hezong success. The episode says 《资治通鉴》 gives the Han result very tersely, while Shiji supplies 韩宣惠王’s emotional reaction and the later 洛阳 / 洛邑 homecoming in which royal reception and family submission answer Su Qin’s earlier humiliation.

《资治通鉴·周纪》33丨历史第一爽文男主角苏秦 stays with that Shiji homecoming and makes its narrative function explicit. Shiji supplies the high-status return through Luoyang, the relatives who “侧目不敢仰视,” the 前倨后恭 rebuke, the hundred-cash / hundred-gold repayment, and the claim that Qin troops did not dare leave 函谷关 for fifteen years. The episode treats the last claim as a point to test against the coming Zizhi Tongjian sequel rather than as settled chronology.

《资治通鉴·周纪》43丨孟尝君妻子偷情被发现他咋处理？ uses Shiji material for the Mengchang Jun branch in two ways. First, the host cites the story of Zhao people mocking Mengchang Jun’s stature and his retainers killing hundreds in response. Second, the episode uses 司马迁’s later travel note around Mengchang Jun’s old place to explain why local memory connected many brave and combative households with Mengchang Jun’s retainer recruitment.

《资治通鉴·周纪》46丨骂你是个“二百五”的历史来源 uses Shiji for 苏秦’s deathbed stratagem. The episode says Su Qin tells the Qi ruler to publicly accuse him as a 燕国 agent after death so the killer will reveal himself, but it separates that Shiji-linked story from the later folk derivation of “二百五,” which the host rejects through 典故来源辨伪.

《资治通鉴·周纪》53丨秦惠王用张仪换地皮 uses Shiji’s Zhang Yi biography to reconsider the simple claim that 楚怀王 merely released 张仪 out of foolishness. The host uses the Shiji layer to infer 秦惠文王’s two-sided calculation: Zhang Yi alive might bring 黔中, while Zhang Yi killed could justify Qin action under the 不斩来使 norm.

《资治通鉴·周纪》55丨 张仪痛失贵人秦惠王 cites Shiji’s Zhang Yi biography in the final Zhang Yi branch. The episode compares Shiji, 《战国策》, and 《资治通鉴》 around Zhang Yi’s 311 BCE route, Qin Huiwen Wang’s death, the post-succession move to Wei, and Zhang Yi’s death after one year as Wei chief minister.

《资治通鉴·周纪》73丨历史上自由恋爱的开创者是谁？ uses Shiji’s Tian Dan biography material for the 田法章 and 君王后 branch. The episode cites the record that 太史角’s daughter pities Tian Fazhang, treats him well, learns his identity, and becomes the partner later installed as queen when he is restored as 齐襄王.

《资治通鉴·周纪》84丨防止秦国灭楚竟用这招？ uses Shiji through the 黄歇 / 春申君 branch. The host says the 《资治通鉴》 passage draws on the Shiji Chunshenjun material while reducing some of its literary ornament, so Shiji again functions as the fuller biography layer behind the chronicle’s strategic lesson.

《资治通鉴·周纪》88丨你怎么看待凤凰男（1） uses Shiji’s Fan Ju / Cai Ze biography as the richer story layer behind the chronicle. The episode notes that 《资治通鉴》 rearranges and trims that material after the 魏冉 campaign notice, preserving enough of 范雎’s humiliation, escape, alias 张禄, and Qin discovery to explain why an injured Wei outsider becomes politically meaningful inside Qin.

《资治通鉴·周纪》93丨在梦里藏着偷天改命？（2） uses Shiji’s Zhao lineage material as the fuller layer behind the 《资治通鉴》 Shangdang notice. The episode says Shiji preserves both 赵豹 / 平阳君’s fuller institutional comparison of Qin and Zhao and 赵丹 / 赵孝成王’s ominous dream before the 上党 offer. It then reads the dreams of 赵盾, 赵简子, 赵武灵王, and Zhao Xiaocheng Wang as a four-dream structure that turns Zhao political history into dream foreshadowing.

《资治通鉴·周纪》94丨杀神白起，长平之战中的“草包”名将？（3） cites Shiji for the post-Changping sequel in which 秦昭襄王 sends 王陵 against 邯郸 and then wants 白起 to replace him. The source uses this Shiji layer to show that even after a massive victory at 长平之战, Qin’s ability to continue fighting was limited by exhausted people and food.

《资治通鉴·周纪》96丨毛遂自荐（4） uses Shiji for a smaller textual point around 李谈 / 李同. The episode explains that names containing “谈” may appear as “同” because 司马迁 avoided his father Sima Tan’s name, while also noting that the practice is not perfectly consistent across the received text. Here Shiji’s value is not only narrative supplementation but evidence that name forms need source-critical handling before the wiki splits or merges people.

《资治通鉴·周纪》96丨毛遂自荐（5） uses Shiji’s 信陵君 material as the main narrative layer. The episode contrasts “魏公子列传” with the title-based biographies of the other 战国四公子, reads Sima Qian’s praise of Xinlingjun as unusually warm, and then checks one sweeping claim about Wei’s safety against the more compact 《资治通鉴》 record.

The same source uses Shiji’s Hou Ying story to show how biography can turn a patronage scene into political reputation. Xinlingjun’s personal drive to Yi Gate, the honored carriage seat, Hou Ying’s detour to 朱亥, and the final banquet introduction become evidence for 礼贤下士式人才吸附 rather than only anecdotal color.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》108-2｜嫪毐的后宫秘史 uses Shiji’s Qin and Lu Buwei material as both evidence and object of critique. The episode draws on the vivid Zhao Ji / Lao Ai descriptions to explain the court scandal, then asks how phrases centered on Zhao Ji’s uncontrolled desire shape later memory of her. This adds 性别化史书欲望叙事: Shiji remains a crucial source, but its gendered narrative lens also becomes something the wiki must mark rather than silently inherit.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》109-2｜春申君被皇帝大舅哥全族灭门 uses Shiji in two Chunshenjun-related ways. The Chunshenjun biography supplies 司马迁’s memory of Chunshenjun’s old Chu grandeur and earlier merit, while the Chu lineage material complicates the hidden-heir story by saying 李源妹妹 bore two sons in the Chu court. The episode keeps both as source layers: one explains emotional evaluation, the other complicates succession genealogy.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》111-2｜我与吕不韦的隔空对话 uses Shiji’s Lu Buwei material for the final letter and aftermath: Ying Zheng’s challenge to Lu Buwei’s merit, kinship, and “仲父” title; the order to move to Shu; Lu Buwei’s poisoned-wine suicide; and differentiated punishments for mourners. The episode also treats Shiji’s “天下大旱” wording as a contrast with 《资治通鉴》’s shorter drought notice, making Shiji both narrative source and variant-text anchor.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》112-3｜韩非与姚贾论战，秦王当裁判 uses Shiji as the contrast source for 韩非’s Qin-court death. In the host’s reading, Shiji presents Han Fei as trying to preserve 韩国 through his criticism of Qin’s first-target policy and its operators, while 《资治通鉴》 gives a harsher judgment that treats his death as deserved. The page records that contrast as a source-framing issue rather than resolving it independently.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》118-2｜吃瓜了！王室的瓜 包甜！ adds another scandal-source test. The episode treats Shiji as indispensable but authored history: the 楚考烈王 childlessness story, the 嬴政 / 秦始皇 paternity rumor, and later commentary around Xiong Qi / 昌平君 all need to be read as layered narrative traditions. The source therefore uses Shiji while also asking whether its vivid succession scandals have literary force that should not be converted into unmarked fact.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》122-1｜揭秘秦始皇封禅为什么选泰山 uses Shiji through the Fengshan account. The episode says 司马迁 gives the theoretical premise that rulers accepted by Heaven perform fengshan, then uses that frame to explain 嬴政 / 秦始皇’s 泰山 ceremony as 封禅礼制合法性. Shiji’s role here is not only supplementation of 《资治通鉴》; it supplies the religious-political theory that makes the chronicle’s terse ritual notice legible.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》122-2｜日本人到底是不是徐福的后代？ uses Shiji as a limit on the later 徐福 legend field. The host says the early Shiji account does not record Xu Fu founding an overseas kingdom and says she tends to accept the version in which Xu Fu returned. The source therefore makes Shiji an evidentiary boundary for 徐福日本后裔传说 rather than a proof-text for Japanese descent.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》126｜秦始皇死因之谜（1） uses Shiji for the fuller strange-sign atmosphere around 秦始皇晚年异象危机. The episode says Shiji places 荧惑守心 before the meteor inscription and preserves the returned jade bi / “祖龙” prophecy branch. At the same time, the host treats Shiji’s vividness as material to test, especially around the “始皇” wording, rather than as automatically literal reportage.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》126｜秦始皇死因之谜（2） uses Shiji for the “游徙吉” and migration branch. The episode treats Shiji’s “北河” wording as more coherent than the 《资治通鉴》 “河北” reading, because it supports a movement of thirty thousand households toward the northern frontier rather than away from it. Shiji therefore becomes not only a strange-sign source but also the textual anchor for the population-movement interpretation.

《资治通鉴·秦纪》127-3｜海外回归一批竹简 揭开胡亥立帝之谜！ makes Shiji the received account being challenged by 《赵正书》. In the Shiji-style version, 秦始皇’s death is concealed, 赵高, 李斯, and 胡亥 / 秦二世 manipulate succession credentials, and 扶苏 and 蒙恬 are eliminated through commands. The episode does not discard Shiji, but it records that an excavated text can make the same accession look like a deathbed selection rather than only a forged-edict coup.

Hanji 145 uses Shiji’s Huaiyin Hou biography as the source base for 韩信’s early-life stories. The episode takes the Piaomu feeding and “胯下之辱” as Shiji-grounded narrative material, then distinguishes those details from the unresolved silence about Han Xin’s parents, siblings, spouse, and children.

Hanji 145 part 2 uses that same Huaiyin Hou branch while pushing into source-scoped reconstruction. The episode treats local stories preserved through 司马迁 as meaningful evidence for Han Xin’s early humiliations, but its claims about old-Han royal descent, inherited military books, and paternal training remain inferential rather than directly established by Shiji’s silence.

Hanji 155-1 uses Shiji’s Huozhi Liezhuan material to explain 任氏 during the 关中 famine. The episode treats the account as more than a wealth anecdote: Ren氏’s ability to store grain through extreme scarcity raises the source-critical question of whether wartime order, old official access, or power protection made his fortune possible.

Hanji 168 part 1 uses Shiji as the fuller literary layer behind Xiang Yu’s final night. The host says 《资治通鉴》 omits the Gaixia song passage, then restores Shiji’s scene of 项羽 drinking, 虞姬, the horse Zhui, and 《垓下歌》. Here Shiji’s value is not only extra detail; it preserves emotional evidence that lets the source read 四面楚歌 as morale collapse and Xiang Yu as a tragic figure rather than only a defeated commander.
