Appears in 2 chapters:

Chapter 9
— Lu Bu Kills Dong Zhuo For Wang Yun; Li Jue Attacks The Capital On Jia Xu's Advice.
Emperor Wu, cited by Wang Yun as the cautionary precedent: he spared Sima Qian to write the annals and got 'slanderous stories' handed down - Wang Yun's excuse for strangling Cai Yong.

Chapter 105
— The Lord of Wuxiang Leaves A Plan In The Silken Bag; The Ruler of Wei Removes The Bronze Statue With The Dew Bowl.
Cited by Ma Jun as the one long-lived emperor of the Latter Han line - 'only Emperor Wu enjoyed the throne very long and really attained to old age. That was because he drank of the essence of the brilliancy of the sun and the brightness of the moon' - which is the whole justification for hauling the bronze Dew Bowl figure from Chang'an to Luoyang.
