　　歷史事件
　　周匡王姬班在位時，他本人無重要的事可述。
　　這時晉國的國君是晉靈公，在他宮內，卻發生了歷史上著名的趙盾事件。原來，晉靈公是一個衹顧享樂，不理政事的國君。他又喜歡惡作劇，經常從宮臺上用彈弓把別人彈得頭破血流，人們東躲西閃，他看着高興。有一次，廚師沒有將熊掌煮熟，晉靈公竟把他殺了，用草席裹着，叫宮女在朝廷上拖過。執政大臣趙盾多次勸諫，晉靈公竟派武士徂魔(名除尼)去謀刺趙盾。徂魔一早去趙盾傢，見趙盾大開着臥室門，穿着朝服，正襟危坐地在等待天明上朝。徂魔深受感動地說：“對國君不忘恭敬，是替民衆辦事的好人。殺了他，對不起百姓；不殺他，國君不會放過我，如此進退兩難，不如一死了之。”就一頭撞嚮庭院中的槐樹而倒地身亡。晉靈公此計不成，又假裝着請趙盾赴宴，埋伏好了武士，準備殺死趙盾，不料趙盾遇救逃了出來。後來，趙盾的族弟趙穿將晉靈公殺了，趙盾纔返回都城。
　　公元前607年10月，姬班病死。姬班死後的廟號為匡王。
