I administered Yangzheng Dan (Nourish Righteousness Pill) for three doses, delivered with Ruxiang Tang (Frankincense Decoction), assisted with Sansheng Yin (Three Raw Decoction). She recovered immediately. Another man suffered the same syndrome and also recovered with this medication. (From *Furen Liangfang*) *Dingbu Zhizhang* Jianglong Dan (Subdue Dragon Pill) suppresses Liver and calms Heart.

Now retaining eight ingredients based on the Song edition, designated as Qingxin Wan. However, its preparation method is confusingly similar to Shanyu Wan, so it is recorded after deletion and revision from *Guanju Fang*. Also, *Yidu* records this formula with eight ingredients, matching *Guanju Fang*. Was it revised after viewing *Zashi*? But it also contains Huangqin (Scutellaria Root) two and a half liang, which *Guanju Fang* also has; this needs verification. The note after the formula in *Yidu* says: Grind to powder, mix with refined honey and boiled jujube flesh to form pills, ten per liang, coat with gold leaf, take one pill dissolved in warm water. Jujube flesh pills seem similar in text to Dashanyu Wan.) *Shengji Zonglu* treats Wind-Phlegm Heat, calming soul and stabilizing spirit with Dansha Wan.

Her husband asked Dai Ren to examine her. Dai Ren said: This cannot be treated with medicine. He ordered two female performers to apply rouge and powder, acting like actors. The woman laughed loudly. The next day, he had her watch wrestling matches, and she laughed again. Two gluttonous women nearby praised the delicious food, and the woman also requested to taste it. Within a few days, anger decreased, appetite increased, cured without medicine, and later gave birth to a son.
Doctors must possess talent; without talent, how can they respond to infinite changes? (From *Shixing Sanliao*)
