朱熹 / Zhu Xi

朱熹 / Zhu Xi appears in 《资治通鉴·周纪》26丨孟子来了! as the later scholar cited for the coherence of 《孟子》. The episode says Zhu Xi believed that even if some passages involved disciple writing, the book’s final shape had been reviewed by 孟子 / Mencius himself.

The page keeps that claim source-scoped. Zhu Xi’s role here is textual reception: he helps explain why the episode treats Mencius as a coherent authorial voice when discussing the opening with 梁惠王.
