Song Yi

Chapter 44
Lin Qingdai said: "Okay! - Poria!"

"Wulingsan! It comes from "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" written by the medical sage Zhongjing. It is compatible with Alisma, Polyporus, Atractylodes Rhizoma, and Guizhi. How about it? Drink it!" Du Wenhao laughed.

Lin Qingdai smiled, took a drink from the wine glass, thought for a while, and said, "Cardamom!"

"Three Ren Decoction! The combination of Coix Seed and Almond is from "Benefits of Febrile Diseases"!"

Although Lin Qingdai didn't know much about medical skills, she was still very good at medicinal materials. The Song Dynasty paid special attention to the collection and arrangement of medical classics, and published a large number of medical books.

However, she recalled carefully, but she had never heard of the medical book "Ticket Identification of Febrile Diseases".

He glanced at him suspiciously, and asked: "Please tell me, sir, which doctor wrote this "Briefing of Febrile Diseases"? Qingdai is ignorant and has never heard of it."

Du Wenhao slapped his forehead, and then he remembered that this febrile disease article was written by Wu Tang in the Qing Dynasty, and it was a famous work of the warm school of medicine in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.How did the people of the Song Dynasty know, so they quickly changed their words and said:
"I made a mistake, this..., hehe, it's not a medical book, I'll think about it again, um, yes, Mrs. Chen..."

As soon as he said two words, he got stuck. He wanted to say the white cardamom soup in "Shen Shi Zun Sheng Shu", but this was also compiled by Shen Jinao, a famous doctor in Qing Dynasty.

For a moment, I couldn't think of any book that was written before the Song Dynasty, and there must be a prescription for the medicine cardamom.

Yingzi clapped his hands and smiled, "Hee hee, sir, I can't tell, I lost!"

Lin Qingdai brought him a glass of wine and handed it to him:
"Sir, you are knowledgeable and talented, and you will be stumped sometimes, right? Drink!"

Du Wenhao was a little embarrassed, he raised his neck and drank it up, and then suddenly remembered that the prescription of cardamom was among the prescriptions he had seen in the medical books the night before, and he slapped his forehead:
"I just remembered now! The white cardamom pills with Astragalus, Atractylodes macrocephala, and ginseng in the "Taiping Shenghui Prescription" written by Emperor Taizong! Hey! I was in a hurry after drinking, and I forgot it."

Now there is a challenge. I have to think of the classic prescriptions in the medical techniques that appeared before the Song Dynasty. Not only must I immediately come up with the classic prescriptions, but they must also be in the medical books before the Song Dynasty. This is a certain difficulty.

Du Wenhao lost a game, and he couldn't help arousing his desire to win, and said:
"Come again!"

Lin Qingdai pursed her lips and smiled: "We have to make it a little more difficult - you not only have to tell the scriptures, the source of the scriptures, but also tell an allusion or legend about this medicine, don't make it up! We heard it from.

Don't talk about the source of the scriptures, it must be a medical book that everyone knows, and it can't be your doctor Ling's handwritten copy! "

"Haha, good! Challenging!"

As long as you are careful not to mention the source of the prescription, you will not lose. According to the allusion, when I was a child, my uncle often told me some interesting stories about commonly used medicines, and I remembered them all. :
"Let's get started!"

"Yeah! Yingzi, go get a medical book!"

"Hey!" Yingzi ran into Du Wenhao's room, quickly brought back a medical book from the shelf, and handed it to Lin Qingdai.

Lin Qingdai casually turned a page, found the first medicine on this page by moonlight, and said, "Fangfeng!"

"Qianghuo Shengshi Decoction! It comes from "Distinguishing Puzzles from Internal and External Injuries"..."

Seeing Lin Qingdai's suspicious eyes at a glance, I immediately recalled that "Distinguishing Internal and External Injuries from Perplexity" was written by Li Dongyuan, a famous doctor in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty.It is not the medical codes before the Song Dynasty.

With a wry smile, he raised his neck and drank the wine glass!Decided not to be too anxious next time, I have to think it over before talking.

Lin Qingdai smiled and said, "Mr. is also self-conscious. If I made a mistake, maybe you can correct it once."

Du Wenhao chuckled: "No, if I fix it, you won't have a chance to win, but as long as I find the trick, it's your turn to drink!"

"Really? Well, I'm thirsty and want to drink!" Lin Qingdai pursed her lips and smiled, then turned another page casually: "—Crotou!"

"Sanwu Beiji Pill! Compatible with rhubarb and dried ginger, it is mainly used to treat abdominal pain and constipation due to cold and excess! From "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber"!"

Lin Qingdai smiled and said, "I didn't ask you to talk about the indications. Talk about allusions!"

"Hehe, I got used to it when I recited it, this allusion--, um, I have it.

Legend has it that when Wu Zetian was emperor in the Tang Dynasty, in her later years, she had a strange disease. She couldn't sleep because she didn't want to eat or vomit, but she had a severe stomachache. The imperial doctors came to see the queen and prescribed prescriptions. But none of them worked, my stomach still hurts.

The empress scolded these imperial doctors, but had no choice but to visit famous doctors all over the world.

But the famous doctors heard that they were treating the Queen, and heard the symptoms of the disease, they all deduced that it would not be cured.

It was not easy to find a doctor in the countryside, surnamed Yu, the fifth eldest in the family, known as Yu Wu, who was said to be able to cure various strange diseases, so the queen sent eunuchs to invite him.

This Yu Wu didn't know the pros and cons, and after hearing the symptoms, he said that he could cure them, and followed him into the palace. "

Yingzi rested his cheeks and opened his big eyes, listening intently. When he heard this, he let out an ah and said:
"Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger! Seeing the Queen's doctor, it's all right, if there is any mistake, you will be punished all over the house! This Yu Wu is really reckless!"

"That's right! This Yuwu checked the queen's pulse, and said in a daze: 'Your Majesty, your disease is all due to your gluttonous mouth!' Hearing this, the eunuchs serving beside him sweated for him.

But the queen was not angry. Her illness was indeed caused by greed. Two days ago, a basket of fresh water crabs was presented as a tribute. She thought it tasted good, so she ate two more. Adding the night cold, she ended up with indigestion and stagnated in her stomach. .

Yu Wu picked up a pen and wrote a prescription. What do you think is the first medicine? "

Yingzi's eyes lit up, he pointed his finger up and said, "Crotou!"

"That's right, the first medicine is croton!"

Lin Qingdai thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Sir, I said earlier that Croton is used for abdominal pain due to cold and excess, and it is used for diarrhea. This disease is not a strange disease, and the prescription is not difficult. Why can't the imperial doctors prescribe it?"

"Can you guess?"

"Hmm... Croton is a medicine for the great cold, and it is highly poisonous. Presumably some imperial physicians are afraid and dare not use this prescription."

"That's right!" Du Wenhao laughed, "Of course the imperial physicians will treat this disease, but no one dares to prescribe this prescription.

Because Croton is endowed with a masculine and fierce nature, it has the power to cut through barriers and seize doors, especially it is highly poisonous.

As soon as the medicine was prescribed, the empress was very suspicious. When she saw it, oh, the medicine is poisonous?Want to poison me to death?Slash all over the house!That's not the end!So the imperial physicians dare not prescribe this prescription.

And the famous doctors from all over the world are sober enough to know how powerful it is, so they dare not go there.

This Yu Wuxiang wild doctor, who has never seen anything in the world, came here in a daze, and opened Croton with a pen. "

Yingzi looked worried, and said: "This Yu Wu is really stupid, it's better not to cause trouble!"

"Yu Wu prescribed a prescription, some of the imperial doctors sympathized with him but dared not remind him, some wanted to watch the excitement, so no one said anything.

Fortunately, the empress didn't care about the prescription, and the imperial hospital prepared the medicine according to the prescription.

The queen was very happy, and thought to herself what kind of miraculous medicine was prescribed by this country doctor, let me have a look.

After taking the prescription, she saw that the first medicine was croton. She also knew a little bit of medicine and knew that it was highly poisonous. She was furious and ordered Yu Wu to be tied out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded. "

"Ah! Did you behead it?" Yingzi asked nervously.

"No, this empress is not a fool. After Yu Wu was pushed out, she calmed down and realized that the medicine was effective and she wasn't poisoned. She felt that she had made a mistake.

Immediately decree to bring Yu Wu back, release him at the court, and make him the head of the imperial hospital.

This Yu Wu finally woke up after being frightened by this, and understood the truth that being with a king is like being with a tiger. Before he got home, he knelt down and kowtowed, refusing to be an official, and insisted on going home.

Seeing that he couldn't stay, the empress gave him a lot of gold and silver, and even wrote him a plaque with her own hand - 'National Hand of Imperial Physician'!
When Yu Wu returned to his hometown, he hung the plaque inscribed by the Queen's personal pen in the middle of the hall. From then on, Yu Wu became famous and became a famous doctor, known as the "village imperial doctor". "

Du Wenhao said that this story is actually a legend of the Qing Dynasty. It was treated by Lafayette Empress Dowager Cixi. In order to meet the situation, it was changed to Wu Zetian, and the content of the legend was added.

After listening to the allusion, Yingzi breathed a sigh of relief and applauded: "Okay, good people are rewarded! That's great! Let me tell you one more thing, sir!"

"It's not a story meeting. Only when your wife beats me can you listen to the story. Now that I've said it, your wife has to drink!"

Lin Qingdai was already a little drunk, her cheeks were flushed, she picked up her wine glass and smiled slightly:
"The ancients looked at the plum blossoms to quench their thirst, and Qingdai listened to her husband's stories with wine. This antique is also elegant. Cheers!"

Covering your face with your sleeve, you drank the wine in your glass.

Lin Qingdai casually flipped through another page of the book, glanced at it, and said, "—Ephedra!"

"Mahuang Decoction! It comes from "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" by Zhongjing Medical Sage. It is combined with cinnamon sticks, almonds, and moxibustion licorice.

Guizhi is used in ephedra soup,
Almond and licorice are used in four ways,
fever, chills, headache,
Breathing without sweating is appropriate. "

Lin Qingdai said angrily: "I asked you to tell the story of the medical classics, why did you recite the scriptures again, do you want to delay the time? Fine wine! Take a sip!"

"Hey, I'm used to it, I can't stop the car for a while."

Du Wenhao picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said:

"There is an interesting allusion to the origin of the name of Mahuang. Do you know what Mahuang was originally called?"

The two girls shook their heads together.
