《资治通鉴·周纪》11丨 世界风起云涌(2) records Yan Wen Gong’s accession in 362 BCE after 燕桓公 dies. The episode keeps this as a compact succession notice within a year otherwise dominated by Three Jin infighting and 秦孝公’s accession.

《资治通鉴·周纪》30丨苏秦的“开挂”人生 gives him a more active role inside 苏秦’s biographical sequence. Su Qin persuades Yan Wen Gong that 燕国’s quiet survival depends on 赵国 acting as a geographic shield against 秦国. Yan Wen Gong accepts the argument, funds Su Qin, and sends him toward Zhao to build relations.
