黄；兼伤风者，本方加桂枝；兼伤暑者，本方加黄连；兼伤湿者，本方加羌活。实万世
无穷之利，东垣特发明阳虚发热之一门也。然世间真阴虚而发热者十之六七，亦与伤寒
无异，反不及论，何哉？今之人一见发热则曰伤寒，须用发散，发散而毙，则曰先贤之
治法已穷，岂知丹溪发明之外，尚有不尽之旨乎？予尝于阴虚发热者，见其人热而亦口
渴烦躁，与六味地黄大剂，一服即愈。如见下部恶寒足冷，上部躁极渴甚，或欲饮而反
吐，即以六味汤中加肉桂、五味，甚则加附子冷冻饮料，下咽即愈，以此活人多矣。再举伤
寒口渴一症言之，邪热入于胃腑，消耗津液故渴，恐胃汁干，急下之以存津液。其次
者，但云欲饮水者，不可不与，不可多与，并无治法，纵有治者，徒知以芩、连、枝、
If accompanied by wind-stroke (Shangfeng), add Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) to the base formula; if accompanied by summerheat-stroke (Shangshu), add Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma); if accompanied by dampness (Shangshi), add Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix). This is indeed a benefit for ten thousand generations, infinite and endless. Li Dongyuan specifically elucidated the category of fever due to Yang deficiency. However, in the world, true Yin deficiency causing fever accounts for six or seven out of ten cases, which is no different from Taiyang disease (Shaohang), yet it is not discussed. Why? Nowadays, people see fever and immediately say it is Taiyang disease, requiring dispersing methods. If death ensues after dispersing, they claim that the treatment methods of the sages are exhausted. How could they know that beyond what Danxi elucidated, there are still profound meanings not fully expounded? I have treated patients with fever due to Yin deficiency, observing heat accompanied by thirst and irritability, and administered large doses of Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia). One dose resulted in immediate cure. If one observes cold sensation in the lower body and cold feet, while the upper body is extremely restless and thirsty, or desires to drink but vomits instead, add Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex) and Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus) to Liuwei Tang (Six-Ingredient Decoction). In severe cases, add Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) and serve as a cold beverage. Upon swallowing, the patient is cured. By this method, I have saved many people. Let us further discuss the symptom of thirst in Taiyang disease: when pathogenic heat enters the Stomach Fu organ, consuming Body Fluids (Jinye), thirst occurs. To prevent the drying up of Stomach juices, urgent purgation is required to preserve Body Fluids. In milder cases, it is merely stated that if the patient desires water, it should be given, but not in excessive amounts, without specific therapeutic methods. Even those who treat it only know to use Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Zhizi (Gardeniae Fructus), [and Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma)],
