《竹书纪年》 / Bamboo Annals

《竹书纪年》 / Bamboo Annals appears in 《资治通鉴·周纪》06丨魏文侯选谁当宰相呢(2) as the text the episode cites for the 晋幽公 case. In that account, Jin You Gong’s wife 秦嬴 directs bandits to kill him, making the record useful for thinking about Bandit Assassination Attribution / 盗贼行刺归因.

The page’s wiki role is evidentiary. It gives the episode a named alternative textual source while preserving the source’s caution: the goal is not to solve every assassination notice, but to notice when terse records may hide a political operator.

《资治通鉴·周纪》10丨 以家族单位 有蚂蚁吃大象的精神(3) adds another evidentiary use. The host cites the Bamboo Annals for 公中缓 going to Zhao’s capital to ask for help during 魏国’s succession crisis.

《资治通鉴·周纪》17丨韩昭侯和申不害 uses the Bamboo Annals for the 襄陵 aftermath. In the episode’s account, 魏惠王 uses Han forces to defeat a coalition there, after which 齐威王 seeks peace with Wei through 景舍.
