[Fang Guang's "Shanghan Shu"] Not seen.
Xu Chunfu said: Fang Guang, courtesy name Yue Zhi, pseudonym Gu An, was from Xiuyang in Anhui. He often traveled along the Yellow and Luo rivers and resided in Chenliu. He was famous in the Central Plains. His compiled works, such as *Danyu Xinfa Fuyu* (Supplement to Danyu's Heart Method), *Mai Yao Zhengzhi* (Pulse, Herb, Syndrome, and Treatment), and *Shanghan Dili* (Geography of Cold Damage), are circulating in the world.
Zhou Si said: Fang Yue Zhi wrote the *Shanghan Shu* (Book on Cold Damage), and ancient scholars praised him as a great synthesizer. (From the Preface to *Shanghan Zhengzong*)
[Liu Quande's "Shanghan Shenjing" (Divine Mirror of Cold Damage)] Recorded in *Yicang Mulu* (Catalogue of Medical Treasures), Volume 1. Not seen.
[Miao Cunji's "Shanghan Cuoyao" (Essentials of Cold Damage)] Recorded in *Yicang Mulu*, Volume 4 (current edition has 6 volumes). Extant.
General Treatise: I believe that among all things born by Heaven, humans are the most precious. Among diseases afflicting humans, only Shanghan (Cold Damage) is the most severe. Although books on Shanghan are numerous, few carefully examine its essentials. Moreover, the present differs from the past. Six or seven out of ten people suffer from Shanghan. Why so many? The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) states: In ancient times, the Qi of Heaven and Earth was dense, and humans also possessed dense Qi. Furthermore, in an era of tranquility and emptiness, people did not treat wine as water, nor did they make recklessness a habit. They did not exhaust their essence through desires, nor dissipate their true Qi. Understanding the harmony of Yin and Yang and the principles of numerology, they maintained regular daily routines, had measured diets, and avoided excessive labor. Thus, everyone could live to nearly a hundred years and fulfill their natural lifespan. When the two Qis were dense, various pathogenic factors had no gap to enter. Even if external pathogens attacked, treatment with bian stones would cure them immediately; even if ill, the condition was mild. Today, the Qi of Heaven and Earth is thin, and humans inherit this thinness. Their conduct is completely opposite to that of the ancients; hence, it is said that people today do not reach a hundred years. Since the two Qis are deficient, various pathogens easily invade. Are those suffering from Shanghan not numerous? Once afflicted, within a few days, transmission affects surrounding meridians. There are 201 fatal cases, and including primary and transformed diseases, there are 1,551 syndromes. Is this not serious? Physicians who fail to grasp the essentials rush to treat severe diseases. Even if they grasp the essentials, they fail to read and ponder thoroughly. This is like crossing a vast sea but losing the ferry and source; how can one cross? I have traced back to antiquity and found 237 masters discussing Shanghan, focusing mainly on Zhang Zhongjing and others. Their work was not without precision and detail. However, regarding the key principles—namely the Outline, Observation, Listening/Smelling, Inquiry, and Palpation—they had not collected and summarized them. Therefore, physicians of the world only seek fame and do not research in books. Those who claim to know books are fragmented and vague, missing the essentials. Initially, they do not seek the Outline; subsequently, they neglect Observation; next, they neglect Listening/Smelling; then, they neglect Inquiry; finally, relying solely on pulse diagnosis, they say, "I already know." Consequently, the medicine used does not match the disease, leading to death in nine out of ten cases. Alas! Medicine is meant to heal but instead harms life. Is this not the fault of physicians who do not study? Or is it because they lack the essentials and do not read diligently? I cannot bear to see common people die unjustly, nor do I wish for physicians to remain blinded and deafened. Thus, I referenced specialized books and the essential words of Tao Hua (Jie'an), deleted verbose texts, supplemented omissions, clarified correct and incorrect approaches, and selected the six characters: Outline, Observation, Listening/Smelling, Inquiry, and Palpation. Below, I compiled notes and quick methods for identifying diseases, added secret transmissions, and completed six volumes, naming it *Shanghan Cuoyao*. May scholars and commoners obtain this book to avoid erroneous TCM treatments; may physicians obtain it as if regaining sight after blindness. Filial persons who cherish life and help others should admire it and read it daily for deeper benefit. This is the treatise.
Preface by Xu Shixing: Why is Shanghan difficult to treat? It is more terrifying than miscellaneous diseases. True Shanghan is rare; there are cold epidemics and pestilences. Generally, exterior conditions require sweating; interior conditions require purging; upper excess requires vomiting; half-exterior/half-interior conditions require harmonizing; conditions with food stagnation require resolving. It seems that matching pulses to prescriptions is easy. Who knows that Yin and Yang may be simultaneously affected, appearing interrelated, yet diseases vary in severity, and treatments differ in opposition or conformity. If one fails to observe the seasonal正气 (Righteous Qi) and ignores the deficiency or excess of innate constitution, acting arbitrarily, cold may transform into heat, or heat into cold, with unpredictable disasters. Is this not even more terrifying than miscellaneous diseases? This is why treatment is difficult. Mr. Musong, Master Miao, studied for civil service examinations in his youth at Yaojiang. Later, he fell ill frequently and learned the arts of Qibo and Huangdi from his uncle. He reviewed ancient and modern medical strategies and suddenly understood profound principles. He realized Shanghan is the worst of all diseases. Since Zhang Zhongjing, writings have been abundant. He collected previously tested successful methods, calling them "Old Theories"; he explored secrets unexplored by predecessors, adding his own insights, calling them "New Theories." Though old and new differ, they share [missing text]; though theories differ, they share the elucidation of principles. He titled the collection *Shanghan Cuoyao*, meaning conveying its essentials. I observe his book is concise without being trivial, language simple without being obscure, outlines and details thorough without omission. It is truly a shortcut for physicians and a casebook for medication usage. It almost gathers the greatness of medical schools, surpassing mnemonic rhymes and palm diagrams, while others fall short. Understanding this, what difficulty remains in treating Shanghan? Following this, what harm comes from heterodox schools? Mr. Musong is the grandson of Councilor Gong Rang of Changzhou, Suzhou. His given name is Cunji. On the auspicious day of the late spring of Dingmao year in Longqing reign, Xu Shixing, Jinshi of the First Rank, Compiler of National History in the Hanlin Academy, Official Rank Chengwu, and Sub-editor of Grand Records, wrote this.

[Wang Zhizhong's "Dongyuan Xiansheng Shanghan Zhengmai"] Recorded in *Yicang Mulu*, Volume 12. Extant.
Book Example: *Shanghan Zhengmai* compiles works from *Suwen*, Zhang Zhongjing, Li Dongyuan, Tao Jie'an, and Peng Yongguang. Why is it called *Dongyuan Xiansheng Shanghan Zhengmai*? The books of Qibo, Huangdi, and Zhang Zhongjing were not developed by Mr. Li, so no one could follow afterwards. The books of Jie'an and Yongguang were not initiated by Mr. Li, so no one could precede him. Continuing the past and opening the future, his merit exceeds millennia. Hence, named after him, imitating the "Fuyu" (Appendix) in *Danyu Xinfa Fuyu*.
It also says: *Zhengmai* combines Zhang Zhongjing, Li Dongyuan, Tao Jie'an, and Peng Yonghuo into one collection. Opening the book reveals the entire Shanghan canon, leaving no room for skipping reading. Imitating Li Dongyuan's Ten Books format, each author has their own volume, clarifying individual intentions, unlike miscellanies that mix content indistinguishably. Thus, a "Treatise on Combination" was written to summarize the gist.
The meaning of combination is stated at the beginning: Items within each volume are annotations and doubts, awaiting correction by benevolent gentlemen who save the world.
It also says: Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* is the ancestor of formulas for Shanghan, akin to the classics of sages, which You Xia could not add a word to. After Wang Shuhe's compilation, chapters became clear. Cheng Wuji's commentary greatly benefited Zhang Zhongjing but contained redundancies and doubtful points, often lamented by Tao Jie'an. Redundancies are now deleted; doubtful points are supplemented with notes for future correction. Diagrams on Five Movements and Six Qi are changed to theoretical explanations for beginners, placed in the first volume.
It also says: *Huo Ren Da Quan Fang* contains miscellaneous disease formulas mixed in, mostly resembling Shanghan in four-season colds. Formulas by Zhang Zhongjing and others already included are deleted; those incomplete are recorded for reference. To treat Shanghan, one must distinguish similar miscellaneous diseases. In *Huo Ren Fang*, some old formulas are modified; students must carefully select when prescribing. *Huo Ren Da Quan Fang* uses two- or three-character names for easy lookup.
Treatise on Picking Up Lost Things: "Picking up lost things" refers to supplementing Tao Jie'an's omissions. Tao Jie'an compiled Zhang Zhongjing's chapters into Six Books, categorized in detail. However, the transmission of Shanghan epidemic qi is endless, and some aspects were omitted. I therefore extracted superior theories from *Shanghan Cuoyao* and *Huo Ren Da Quan* to supplement these gaps. First, it makes distinguishing similar Shanghan syndromes easier. Both books are based on *Shanghan Zhige* and *Shanghan Baiwen*. Reading their Q&A sections shows clear debates, validating Liu Shi's views. Scholars combining them will find slight benefits.
Preface by Yao Yunsheng: I once heard health cultivators say: The heart corresponds to jujube, the liver to elm; this is human connection to Heaven and Earth. Dreaming of water before rain, fire before clear weather; this is Heaven and Earth connecting to humans. Thus, the human body, from bones and orifices to viscera and breathing, connects with Heaven and Earth. Without a perfect person exploring the origin of Heaven and Earth and the mystery of Yin and Yang, who can inspect pulses and Qi, observe the exterior to illuminate the interior, assist creation where it falls short, and prevent wrongful injury to preserve natural lifespan? Mr. Wang Sanyang of Shanshan possessed extraordinary talent since youth, a son of a prominent family. He extensively studied classics and history, aspiring high. Upon becoming a student member, his fame spread in schools. Seniors valued him, saying obtaining honors was as easy as picking up mustard seeds. Unfortunately, he suffered from blood disease in youth, becoming weak and unable to complete his studies. He thus studied medical books for self-care. His nature was exceptional; seeing something once granted him spiritual understanding. Morning he visited Yue Ren (Bian Que), evening he galloped in the realm of Xuanyuan and Huangdi. Since Jiayin year of the World Temple, fleeing unrest to Yiyang, he cured thousands of twelve-year chronic vomiting with one prescription. Thereafter, he revived critical cases, resolved doubts, and saved hundreds. Officials' carriages and those carrying the elderly and weak filled the courtyard daily. One day he sighed, "I am forty and not serving, benefiting no bright era. If I have a skill to transmit and save the masses, why cling to scholar robes?" He abandoned scholarly pursuits for medicine, and his fame shook Wu and Yue. He again lamented quack doctors who, ignorant of books and knowing only one or two herbs, acted like the Story of Ying and Yan, holding life and death in hand, misunderstanding ancient formula intentions like Zhao Kuo reading his father's military texts. Thus, in leisure, based on *Suwen*, *Lingshu*, and *Nanjing*, he searched for similarities and differences among Zhang Zhongjing, Li Dongyuan, and Tao Jie'an, compiling *Shanghan Gangmu*. Each master has a volume. For unexplored ancient points, he wrote additional treatises named *Zhinan* (Guide). Generally following heaven's timing and earth's suitability, he precisely observed different Yin-Yang influences and corresponding treatments. E.g., winter cold damage originates in cold, treated with Zhang Zhongjing's hot medicines; transforming into warm-heat in spring/summer, treated with Tao Jie'an's cold medicines. People usually hear only of Li Dongyuan's spleen/stomach theories excelling in internal injury, unaware his *Nan Zhi* collections excel in external contraction. Thus, they know Zhang Zhongjing's hot medicines cannot treat spring/summer heat diseases, but do not know Tao Jie'an's cold medicines cannot treat winter cold damage. Mr. Wang's intent is to clarify this. With Tao Jie'an's book, one avoids sticking to Zhang Zhongjing's method and treating heat with heat; with Mr. Wang's book, one avoids losing Tao Jie'an's intent and treating cold with cold. The legacies of Li Dongyuan, Tao Jie'an, and the third master are greatly illuminated by Mr. Wang. If they returned, hearing his views, they would surely approve and celebrate. Regarding changes in heaven, earth, and human affairs, pointing out abnormal Qi, like summer ice/snow or winter thunder/lightning, causing summer cold or winter heat, he grasped profound mysteries, exhausted principles of normal/abnormal transformation, breaking millennium doubts. Only with Mr. Wang's spiritual root and early Confucian training could he penetrate subtleties and expound profound principles so well. His merit to past and present is indeed deep. Lacking his skills but sharing his heart, I pity his untapped talents and rejoice in his book, which can extend life for ten thousand generations and flow endlessly. Together with Chen Binglin, I carefully proofread and submitted to our hospital for calligraphy printing to spread it widely. Upon completion, named *Shanghan Gangmu Yishou Quanshu*. Imperial Physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau, Changzhou Yao Yunsheng, wrote this.

*Huguang Tongzhi* states: Wan Gong, from Jianli, could write poetry and understood medicine well. Wrote *Yixue Dacheng* and *Shanghan Zhinan*. Regrettably, most are lost. His *Bingyuan* was unprecedented. However, his character was proud and upright, lazy in socializing. Invited, he declined citing illness, sending prescriptions instead.

*Songjiang Fu Gazetteer* states: Wu Zhongxiu, courtesy name Duansuo, mastered Qibo-Huangdi arts. Gao Zhongyang suffered insomnia for three years; other doctors thought it deficiency. Zhongxiu felt his pulses were all surging, said, "This is stubborn phlegm above the diaphragm." Used Genti San to induce vomiting, curing him. Li Mou, usually healthy, visited Zhongxiu. Zhongxiu asked, "Do you have sons?" Answered, "A ten-year-old son." Zhongxiu said, "Lucky. Next year at a certain time, you will suffer from sores, uncurable by decoctions or acupuncture." The time came, and it proved true. His fame rivaled Qin Changmai and Jing Ming. In sixty years, he saved countless people. He possessed extreme filial piety, caring for his sick mother without removing clothes, washing personally. His brother once asked for ten taels; Zhongxiu gave all tens of taels he had. He married off all six children. His eighty-year-old sister was cared for by him despite his old age. Thus, he was praised for filial piety and fraternal duty. He loved collecting books, owning tens of thousands of volumes, building Tianxiang Pavilion to store them. Dong Wenmin and Chen Zhengjun visited often. Son Maoqian could read his father's books. Zhongxiu's works include *Yilin Zongzong* and *Shanghan Beilan*.
[Cai Zhengyan's "Susheng de Jing"] Eight Volumes. Extant.
General Rules: Why named "De Jing" (Target Mirror)? Objects brightest are mirrors; most accurate are targets ("De"). Using "De" to name the mirror implies penetrating subtleties without flaw. Human meridians and viscera are subtle; who compares? How can private speculation suffice without a mirror? Thus, observing form requires a copper mirror; gaining resources requires humans as mirrors. Su Sheng must use this book as a mirror because its Shanghan analysis repeatedly distinguishes Yin/Yang syndromes, rooting in ultimate principles, investigating all refinements. If doubts arise, viewing evidence clarifies the mind, ensuring no error. Secondly, treating syndromes is like shooting the target, akin to Hua Tuo's *Neizhao Pian*. Named "De Jing," is it false? Pulse theory is the physician's primary task; syndromes are understood through pulses. Thus, *Neijing Zhengmai*, *Shuhe Can*, and other experts are compiled and diagrammed at the start for colleagues' clarity. These laws follow *Suwen*, privately inheriting Zhang Zhongjing, avoiding fabrication. Mnemonic entries follow Tao's Six Books, *Huo Ren Quan Shu*, Xu Hong's *Jingjian Neiwailun*, and Ye Qi's mnemonics, without arbitrary opinion. The book divides into Pulse, Syndrome, and Treatment layers, focusing on Six Meridians' true Shanghan/Wind-Cold. Miscellaneous diseases cannot be treated this way; specific decoction names are listed below for grading. Many Shanghan formulas exist, but Sweating, Vomiting, and Purging are hardest. Clauses analyze these thoroughly; symptoms and pulses must match before administration. Yin/Yang syndromes are hard to distinguish; recognizing direct transmission requiring urgent warming or transformation requiring urgent purging prevents errors. Syndromes may combine internal injury with external contraction, cold-damp with diet, fatigue with sexual indulgence; one cannot stick to one Zhang Zhongjing formula. Combining with Li Dongyuan's methods is wise. Hemorrhages (vomiting blood, hot blood, summerheat blood, Shaoyin meridian blood) differ from Taiyang blood injury or Yangming blood accumulation. Must reference *Danyu Xinfa Fuyu*, *Ren Zhi Zhizhi*, and ancient masters' verified cases; cannot treat merely as Shanghan. Plague, warm-heat, dryness, fire diseases are detailed by Hejian Xiansheng in *Yuanbing Shi*; included in Vol 1. Food stagnation, phlegm, beriberi, and deficiency vexation are distinguished here. Five Movements/Six Qi theory is subtle; must follow *Suwen*, *Lingshu*, and Zhang Zhongjing's *Shanghan Lun* (detailed in Vol 1). Twelve Meridians and Ren/Du vessels are analyzed in other books; not repeated. Selected essential pulse rhymes and Eight Extraordinary Vessels discussions. Acupuncture for Six Meridians follows *Neijing*, Huangfu Mi's *Jia Yi Jing*, and Dou, Yang, Xu's Zi Wu Liu Zhu and Ling Gui Ba Fa techniques. Children's true Shanghan/Wind-Cold treated by these methods; convulsions, food-cold plague, measles/rubella/varicella/malnutrition require Qian Zhongyang, Xue Lizhai, Chen's *Huoyou Quanshu*, *Baoyun Quanying*, *Douzhen Xinshu*, Lu's *Jingjian*. Cannot use true Shanghan methods. Book divided into Heaven, Earth, Man volumes: Theory, Methods, Formulas, for easy lookup.
