魏豹。
史记卷九十 魏豹彭越列传第三十:
  魏豹者,故魏诸公子也。其兄魏咎,故魏时封为宁陵君。秦灭魏,迁咎为家人。陈胜之起王也,咎往从之。陈王使魏人周市徇魏地,魏地已下,欲相与立周市为魏王。周市曰:「天下昬乱,忠臣乃见。今天下共畔秦,其义必立魏王後乃可。」齐、赵使车各五十乘,立周市为魏王。市辞不受,迎魏咎於陈。五反,陈王乃遣立咎为魏王。
  章邯已破陈王,乃进兵击魏王於临济。魏王乃使周市出请救於齐、楚。齐、楚遣项它、田巴将兵随市救魏。章邯遂击破杀周市等军,围临济。咎为其民约降。约定,咎自烧杀。
  魏豹亡走楚。楚怀王予魏豹数千人,复徇魏地。项羽已破秦,降章邯。豹下魏二十馀城,立豹为魏王。豹引精兵从项羽入关。汉元年,项羽封诸侯,欲有梁地,乃徙魏王豹於河东,都平阳,为西魏王。
  汉王还定三秦,渡临晋,魏王豹以国属焉,遂从击楚於彭城。汉败,还至荥阳,豹请归视亲病,至国,即绝河津畔汉。汉王闻魏豹反,方东忧楚,未及击,谓郦生曰:「缓颊往说魏豹,能下之,吾以万户封若。」郦生说豹。豹谢曰:「人生一世间,如白驹过隙耳。今汉王慢而侮人,骂詈诸侯群臣如骂奴耳,非有上下礼节也,吾不忍复见也。」於是汉王遣韩信击虏豹於河东,传诣荥阳,以豹国为郡。汉王令豹守荥阳。楚围之急,周苛遂杀魏豹。
