[Zhao's (Dazhong) Feng Ke Ji Yan Ming Fang] (The author's name was originally missing. The character "Yan" in the title was originally written as "Lun". It has been supplemented and revised based on *Dushu Minqiu Ji*.) Recorded in *Guoshi Jingji Zhi* as twenty-eight volumes, but now lost.
Zhao Su wrote in his preface: The term "Fang" (prescription/formula) refers to remedies adapted to the local conditions and products of the nine provinces for treating diseases. The great sages of antiquity, Emperor Fuxi, Emperor Shennong, and Emperor Xuanyuan, created these teachings out of concern for the suffering of future generations. They are called "Fang" (formulas), "Fa" (methods), and "Shu" (techniques), which were transmitted by Leigong and Wupeng. From the Zhou and Qin dynasties down to the Tang and Song dynasties, medical texts prioritized the discussion of "Wind Diseases" (diseases caused by wind pathogens or characterized by symptoms like paralysis), with other specialties following. Specialized formula books were often biased, narrow, and brief, and could not serve as standards for later generations. I traveled for thirty years, covering half of the world, traversing rivers and lakes, inspecting medicines in the Man and Shu regions; I went to Youyun, understanding the remedies of the Qiang and Rong peoples. Qi and Chu differ; summer and Li places vary. One residing in a corner cannot claim to have gained true insight. As the saying goes, "One who is unwilling to be a Prime Minister can become a physician." Without thorough knowledge of diseases, one cannot understand medicines. Alas! Medicine is no trivial matter. One must comprehend the numbers, qi, flavors, natures, and functions of the Five Elements and all things before prescriptions can be grounded. Therefore, I have compiled my empirically verified experiences into ten collections, titled *Feng Ke Ji Yan Ming Fang*. This is not for fame or profit, but to prepare for urgent medical needs across the vast territory of the state. The inscription is dated to the year of Zhaoyang Chifenruo (Wushen), on the first day of the fifth lunar month (mid-summer), respectfully inscribed by Zhao Su, courtesy name Caiqing, from Xinxin An in Hezhong, granted the title Void White Hermit (Xubai Chushi) by the Great Yuan.
Anqing Guanghua, Official of Verification for All Routes of the Great Yuan, wrote in his preface: My family has lived in Hengshan for generations. In my youth, I went to Qianzhou. The Taizu Emperor personally dispatched envoys to Yran to inspect national resources. I often regretted not being able to exhaust the depths while investigating things to acquire knowledge. Later, I met my teacher, Mr. Mingyang, who studied classics morning and night, reviewing the old to understand the new. He taught medicine, divination, Daoism, Buddhism, as well as Confucianism, agriculture, commerce, and crafts. His vision was precise as a scale, his hands skillful as a knife and ruler, knowing the essentials of everything. Around the Gengzi year, I met him at Xin'an; he was a successor to Master Mingyang. By the Bingwu year, he was granted the Huangji Daoist Academy and the title Void White Hermit, coming to Zhenyang. Once, after drinking, I suffered a stroke and vomited several bowls of blood. Physicians could not save me. The Hermit cured me with a single substance. Within three days, I recovered. The next day, I visited him and asked about his prescription. He showed me a book titled *Feng Ke Jingyan Ming Fang*, which aligned with the *Taiping Shenghui Fang*. This was compiled by Zhao Dazhong, Imperial Physician of Beijing, by imperial decree. During the Jin turmoil, he fled to Wushan. A man named Zhao Zizhong from Chehuai inherited and studied it, causing the original text to become obscure. The Void White Hermit obtained the original text in the Jinghu region but it lacked the preface and introduction. In the Bing Shen year, he returned to submit to the Great Yuan and resided in Hengshan. Among officials and noble families, those suffering from stroke recovered within a month of treatment; such cases are countless. Pitying that his compilation of various wind diseases was incomplete, I supplemented and perfected it. Ignoring my own lack of talent, I write this preface. Thanks to his laborious writing, patients no longer need crutches and can ride horses again. The world and future generations will rely on this; it is no small matter.
Zuo Douyuan wrote in his preface: Ancients said, "When successful, one wishes to be a good minister; when unsuccessful, one wishes to be a good physician." Medicine may not compare to ministers, but its responsibility is heavy, concerning people's welfare and misfortune equally. Is medicine easy to write? The excellence of a doctor lies not in the doctor himself, but in the excellence of the formula. In the summer of Bing Shen during the Yuanzhen era, Liu Junqing, Official Supervisor of Medical Officers, visited my residence in Shayue and showed me a volume of *Feng Ke* authored by the Void White Hermit Zhao. He said, "This is a miraculous book for saving the world. However, the longer it circulates, the more errors it accumulates. It is not just that one 'Hai' character is split into three families. Knowing your virtue in loving others and your ambition to save lives, I dare to request your proofreading." Unworthy as I am, recalling my childhood illnesses, I view others' sickness as my own. Since I cannot achieve success like Wang Dan or Lu Zhigong to realize my ambitions, can I not emulate their hearts in compiling secret essentials and empirical formulas to benefit people? Thus, I did not decline. I studied meticulously, consulting *Suwen*, *Lingshu*, *Nanjing*, *Zhongzang Jing*, *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun*, *Qianjin Fang*, *Waitai Miyao*, *Taiping Shenghui Fang*, *Yishuo*, and empirical formulas from north and south, as well as *Shuowen Jiezi*. I checked each one: correcting errors, supplementing omissions, deleting repetitions, adjusting disordered texts, adding brevities, and leaving doubts blank. I also listed discussions from sages, origins of diseases, pulse methods, acupuncture, and moxibustion at the beginning of each category, so readers would clearly understand. Those wishing to become good physicians would have a basis. By examining pulses to verify diseases and following formulas to use medicines, one can cure illnesses and avoid criticism of medical error. This is my deep wish and Liu Gong's kind trust. I worked day and night, exhausting my spirit over two cycles, finally completing it. Not only is it orderly from start to finish, offering more than the original, but as Lü Wenjing said after compiling regulations: "With this regulation, even a mediocre person can act as a minister." Now that *Feng Ke* is complete, I say: "Anyone obtaining this can become a wise physician." Self-narrated by Zuo Douyuan, courtesy name Chen Sou, from Luling, on the Duanwu Festival of the Wuxu year of the Dade era.
Yuan Haowen wrote in the preface to the *Inscription of the Huangji Daoist Academy*: The Void White Hermit, Mr. Zhao, had joined the Quanzhen sect but made Confucianism his profession, originating from the *Analects* and *Mencius*, gradually entering the learning of Cheng Yi and Cheng Hao. He explored the books of the Three Sages. His sincere accumulation of effort made him outstanding in astrology, medicine, and divination. He was specially summoned, served in royal courts, and received great favor. After three years, he requested to return home due to his mother's old age. At the Zhenyang Branch Secretariat, he received an imperial edict to use public funds to build an academy on the site of the former Yingxiang Guan, thus establishing the Huangji Daoist Academy. On the last day of the season, he narrated and inscribed it. The Hermit's name was Su, courtesy name Caiqing, from Hezhong. "Void White" was his conferred title.
Qian Zeng said: *Feng Ke Ji Yan Ming Fang*, twenty-eight volumes. This book was edited by Zhao Dazhong. During the Jin turmoil, he fled to Wushan. Zhao Zizhong from Qinhua inherited it. The Void White Hermit, Zhao Su (Caiqing), obtained the original in Huxiang, corrected errors, and filled gaps. Original formulas: 632; added: 1,347; total: 1,979 formulas, divided into twenty-eight volumes, completing the work. Caiqing was summoned and granted residence at the Huangji Daoist Academy. Yuan Yishan wrote an inscription for him. This book is rarely circulated; few in the medical field know the Void White Hermit. Therefore, I record these details here.
[Shi Shi (Jihong) Lingnan Weisheng Fang] *Yicang Mulu*, four volumes. Extant.
Anonymous Preface: I once read Shen Kuo's preface to *Liangfang*, which stated there are five difficulties in treating disease: distinguishing the disease is difficult, treating it is difficult, administering medicine is difficult, prescribing is difficult, and identifying herbs is difficult. The treatment aspect is particularly detailed. It says ancient healers first understood changes in Yin-Yang cycles and the opening/closing of mountains and rivers, observing the patient's age, fat/thin constitution, status, lifestyle, temperament, preferences, worries, joys, and labor/leisure. They followed what was suitable and avoided what was not. Their precision exceeded catching cicadas, and their observation was sharper than thorns. This is extremely meticulous, likely beyond the reach of shallow practitioners. Upon arriving in Lingnan, I saw that outsiders rarely went a day without illness, and even residents were seldom healthy. I thought that outside the passes, it is known as the hot region, bordering the sea, with warm climate and damp land, different from the Central Plains. Warmth causes Yang to leak, leading to descending pathologies; dampness causes Yin to prevail, leading to ascending pathologies. Practitioners who do not observe the differences in Lingnan's geography and fail to grasp Yin-Yang changes, relying solely on Central Plains methods, will almost certainly err. Why? Using sweating on their leaking Yang damages vital Qi; using draining on their prevailing Yin sinks the Qi further. Thus, medical harm and geographical harm combine to afflict us. I sought a remedy but found none. One day, I read *Lingnan Weisheng Fang* and said, "This is the heart of a benevolent person." Although his prescriptions require careful clinical judgment, his discussion on the onset and progression of miasma diseases grasps the essentials. I proofread several leaves. Jiang Shigong, Tugong, etc., generously funded the printing to spread it. I instructed Lou Andao to append Eight Discussions and Herb Properties. The Eight Discussions prevent confusion by similar symptoms, teaching differentiation. Herb Properties address the scarcity of doctors in remote areas, allowing adjustments based on symptoms. This follows the ancients' intent to distinguish diseases and identify herbs. Readers who understand the causes of illness in Lingnan, proper medication, and consider age, constitution, status, lifestyle, and emotions, can follow suitability, avoid unsuitability, master Yin-Yang dynamics, resist geographical influences, and preserve their natural lifespan.
Lou Andao said: According to various syndromes, fever is present, so it cannot all be attributed to miasma. I collected eight syndromes, highlighting typical ones for easier analysis, facilitating consultation with specialist physicians. Northerners newly arriving in Baiyue or remote areas often mistake unfamiliar conditions for miasma, blaming this book. If one pays attention, perhaps a few premature deaths can be avoided. I seek like-minded individuals to promote it. I also appended Dongyuan's Herb Spectrum for reference. Note: The original book had three volumes; Volume Four is Lou Andao's appendix. The frontispiece contains Li Daizhi KT's *Treatise on Malaria*, so *Yicang Mulu* mistakenly attributes the book to KT.
[Dansiao Jiyan Mifang] Fifteen volumes. Extant.
Self-Preface Summary: In my early years, traveling south, I printed formulas for malaria and miasma in Lingnan. Some said this could help people in emergencies. Now, I compile miscellaneous formulas from my life into categories, submitting my humble views to colleagues. If I can alleviate everyone's suffering and help everyone understand disease, then all beings' good medicine would be like the Medicine King, achieving sudden enlightenment through taste and cause. This is my wish. Written by Shi Jihong of Ruchuan, five days after the Guiwei year of the Zhiyuan era.
[Xu Shi (Guozhen) Yuyao Yuan Fang] Eleven volumes. Extent.
Gao Ming's Preface: Our dynasty uses the way of mutual nourishment of the Three Dynasties to keep people in benevolence and longevity. Beings with blood and qi inevitably fall ill. We established physicians to manage medical policies, detailed like the Zhou system but more comprehensive. Medical art is profound. Effective formulas treasured by predecessors are especially rare. Taiyi Tidian Ronglu Xu Gong, along with colleagues, took the printing blocks of formulas published by the Imperial Pharmacy in the Renyin year, corrected errors, filled gaps, sought lost content, and added supplements. They intend to widely disseminate it so everyone feels near good physicians. I appreciate their intention and write this narrative. Since Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* discussed syndromes and prescriptions, hundreds of subsequent formula books emerged. The Imperial Pharmacy is considered most comprehensive, gathering the best of various schools, selecting and modifying them. Its decoction preparation is flawless, comparable to the *Huangdi Neijing* and *Bianque Nan Jing*. Its utility is not shallow. Clouds rise from Mount Tai, gather, and rain over the world in a morning. Gentlemen who investigate things should observe this. August 9, Dingmao year of Zhiyuan. Preface by Gao Ming, Hanlin Direct Scholar from Hedong.
*History of Yuan*: Xu Guozhen, from Quwo. Profoundly versed in classics and history, especially skilled in medicine. Fled war in Yongning County, Songzhou, at the end of Jin. After Henan pacified, he settled in Taiyuan. When Emperor Shizu was in his潜邸 (private residence), he was summoned to Hanhai for his medical skills, serving as Guardian in charge of medicine. He cured Empress Dowager Zhuang on schedule. Upon Shizu's accession, he was granted Ronglu Daifu and Director of the Imperial Hospital, awarded a gold tally. In the third year of Zhiyuan, changed to a golden tiger tally. In the twelfth year, promoted to Minister of Rites. He submitted memorials on economizing finance, banning sumptuous clothing colors, clarifying laws, strengthening military preparedness, establishing censors, balancing guards, building schools, and setting court rituals. Many proposals were implemented. He recommended famous scholars. Shizu praised him, appointing him Grand Secretary of Jixian and Senior Guanglu Daifu. Died at 76. Posthumously awarded Jinzi Guanglu Daifu, posthumous name Zhongxian. Later enfeoffed as Duke of Ji.
Note: My father said: The author of this book was originally unknown. Gao Ming's preface states: "Taiyi Tidian Ronglu Xu Gong... took the Renyin year printing blocks... corrected errors, filled gaps." *History of Yuan* biography of Xu Guozhen records he was appointed Ronglu Daifu and Director of Imperial Hospital upon Shizu's accession. The Renyin year corresponds to the 14th year of Emperor Ögedei, i.e., the 3rd year of Chunyou in Song. Thus, the book was compiled in the Ögedei era. Gao's preface was written in the 4th year of Zhiyuan, 25 years after Renyin. Xu was promoted to Minister of Rites in the 13th year of Zhiyuan. Hence, "Xu Gong" refers to Guozhen. Also, *Kaogong Leibencao* cites over ten formulas from *Yuyao Yuan Fang*, but none appear in this book. Song bibliographies by Chao and Chen do not list it. There was likely an older Song *Imperial Pharmacy Formulary*. *Gujin Yitong* lists its formulas but claims it was compiled by an anonymous author in the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song, which seems inaccurate. The copy held by Saeki Masatomo (Takataka) is a Korean movable type print based on the Yuan edition. In the winter of Kansei Wuma, Chiga Yoshitsugu printed 250 copies imitating the Qianlong Juzhen style, asking my father for a postscript. In spring of Gengshen, my father suggested sending several copies to Abutaro Hirota, Governor of Bungo, sent to Qing merchant Shen Jingzhan. Since then, no news, reason unknown.

Yan Jian's Preface: Grand Physician Luo studied under Li Dongyuan, tracing his lineage to Zhang Yishui. His teachings spread widely, honoring both masters. Collecting and editing, he had many works printed. Showing me four fascicles of his completed work, he said, "I will soon print it. Please do not spare a preface." Reading it: "Yao Wu Yongjian" (Medication Errors Forever Warned) warns against repeating past mistakes. "Mingfang Leiji" (Collection of Famous Formulas) selects refined ancient and modern formulas for reference. "Yaolei Faxiang" (Characteristics of Herb Categories) explains how flavor density determines usage, aiding trust in modifications. "Yiyan Jishu" (Records of Medical Efficacy) describes specific diseases, treatments, and results to inspire later generations. These are all the efforts of benevolent people.
Moreover, matters unclear in distinction are often似是而非 (seemingly correct but actually wrong), benefiting one while harming another. Medicine involves Yin-Yang deficiency/excess, myriad forms. Divine, sage, skilled, and clever approaches depend on the individual. Combining these four is called *Weisheng Baojian* (Mirror for Health Preservation). A mirror is bright and reflects objects without bias, yet beauty and ugliness cannot be hidden. One who studies and savors this book will understand it clearly. When used, like a clear mirror, it responds to objects without error. Its utility is vast. Otherwise, if stored away and only consulted in haste, distinctions remain unclear, leading to huge losses. The *Book of Songs* says: "Chopping the handle, the rule is not far." Looking sideways at it still seems far. This likely contradicts the Master's intent to guide posterity. Inscribed by Yan Jian of Yuncheng on the Winter Solstice of Xinsi year of Zhiyuan.
Wang Yun's Preface: Medicine parallels creation; mastering it is hard. Writing books for future use is harder. Luo Qianfu, a senior disciple of Dongyuan, told me: "Initially, Master Dongyuan asked, 'Will you learn from two masters? Will you be a seeker of the Dao?' I replied, 'Though dull, I wish to inherit his profound teachings.' For ten years, through cold and heat, I learned constantly. Through sincere accumulation, I mastered his secret transmissions. Human diseases stem from Yin-Yang changes. I integrate heaven and earth with the body, tracing roots. Then, treating as if the enemy is before my eyes, I select herbs precisely. I compiled this into *Weisheng Baojian*. 'Bianwu' distinguishes worldly errors and clarifies principles. 'Zefang' selects fine/coarse, cold/hot herbs appropriate for syndromes. 'Jiyàn' records my treatments and their depth, proving efficacy. This is what I have learned. Please preface it." I heard medicine is part of ancient sages' investigation of things. Since Xuanyuan and Qibo, texts like *Nanjing*, *Suwen*, *Lingshu* amount to millions of words. Only those dedicated to medicine can study them. Luo is such a person. Wang Yanbo treated patients in his courtyard, offering different decoctions for heat, cold, wind, and qi issues without regard for payment. Luo similarly saves beings with Daoist heart and writes for future use. His universal benevolence matches Yanbo's. Who would deny this? I gladly write this prologue. Qingming Festival, Guiwei year of Zhiyuan. Preface by Wang Yun, Zhongyi Dafu and Investigating Censor from Jijun.

Title Inscription: Luo Qianfu's *Weisheng Baojian* is categorized comprehensively. However, methods for treating Shanghan (Cold Damage) are only briefly recorded, not fully included. This section's principles are profound and hard to exhaust. Moreover, its mysteries are already covered in books by Zhang Zhongjing and later名医 (famous physicians). The Master's intent was for capable students to study deeply to find the essence. But fearing remote areas where physicians might panic during sudden illness and seek full texts, I roughly summarize empirical formulas for internal injury and external contraction by Zhang Zhongjing and others, plus heatstroke formulas, appending them to the end as *Buyi* (Supplement). This prevents rash practitioners from blindly administering drugs and harming people. To understand the principles, refer to Zhang Zhongjing's 397 methods and 113 formulas for external contraction, and Dongyuan's three methods for internal injury, along with历代名医 (past famous physicians') commentaries. Diligent study and application can save lives, reflecting benevolent intent. Here, I cannot elaborate fully.
