大全云∶夫肺内主气，外司皮毛，皮毛不密，寒邪乘之，则咳嗽。秋则肺受之，冬则肾受
之，春则肝受之，夏则心受之。其嗽不已，则传于腑。妊娠嗽久不已，则伤胎也。
薛氏曰∶前证若秋间风邪伤肺，用金沸草散（杂咳嗽）；夏间火邪克金，用人参平肺散（杂喘）；
冬间寒邪伤肺，用人参败毒散（杂伤湿）；春间风邪伤肺，用参苏饮（杂发热）。若脾肺气虚，用六
君、芎、归、桔梗；若血虚，四物加桑白皮、杏仁、桔梗；肾火上炎，用六味丸加五味子煎服；
脾胃气虚，风寒所伤，用补中益气加桑皮、杏仁、桔梗。盖肺属辛金，生于己土，嗽久不愈
者，多因脾土虚，而不能生肺气，以致腠理不密，外邪复感，或因肺气虚不能生水，以致阴
火上炎所致。治法当壮土金，生肾水为善。
一妊妇嗽则便自出，此肺气不足，肾气亏损，不能司摄，用补中益气汤，以培土金，六味
丸加五味，以生肾水而愈。
一妊妇咳嗽，其痰上涌，日五六碗许，诸药不应，予以为此水泛为痰，用六味丸料及四
君子汤各一剂，稍愈，数剂而安。
一妊妇因怒咳嗽吐痰，两胁作痛，此肝火伤肺金，以小柴胡汤加山栀、炽壳、白术、茯
苓，治之而愈。但欲作呕，此肝侮脾也，用六君子加升麻、柴胡而愈。

The *Yizong Bidu* states: The Lung internally governs Qi and externally controls the skin and hair. If the skin and hair are not dense, Cold Evil will take advantage of this to invade, resulting in cough. In autumn, the Lung is affected; in winter, the Kidney is affected; in spring, the Liver is affected; in summer, the Heart is affected. If the cough persists without cessation, it transmits to the Fu organs. During pregnancy, if coughing persists for a long time, it will damage the Fetus.
Xue Ji (Mr. Xue) said: For the aforementioned conditions, if Wind Evil injures the Lung in autumn, use Jineicao San (Golden Fern Grass Powder); if Fire Evil overcomes Metal (Lung) in summer, use Renshen Pingfei San (Ginseng Lung-Pacifying Powder); if Cold Evil injures the Lung in winter, use Renshen Baidu San (Ginseng Detoxifying Powder); if Wind Evil injures the Lung in spring, use Shensu Yin (Ginseng and Perilla Decoction). If Spleen and Lung Qi are deficient, use Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) plus Chuanxiong, Danggui, and Jiegeng; if Blood is deficient, use Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) plus Sangbaipi, Xingren, and Jiegeng; if Kidney Fire flares upward, use Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill) with Wuweizi decocted and taken. If Spleen and Stomach Qi are deficient and injured by Wind-Cold, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) plus Sangbaipi, Xingren, and Jiegeng. Generally, since the Lung belongs to Xin Metal and is born from Ji Earth (Spleen Earth), chronic coughs that do not heal are often due to Spleen Earth deficiency failing to generate Lung Qi, leading to loose pores and repeated external evil invasion; or because Lung Qi deficiency fails to generate Kidney Water, causing Yin Fire to flare upward. The treatment method should focus on strengthening Earth and Metal to generate Kidney Water.
One pregnant woman experienced involuntary defecation whenever she coughed. This was due to insufficiency of Lung Qi and depletion of Kidney Qi, failing to maintain control. She was treated with Buzhong Yiqi Tang to cultivate Earth and Metal, and Liuwei Dihuang Wan with Wuweizi to generate Kidney Water, resulting in recovery.
Another pregnant woman suffered from coughing with phlegm surging upward, amounting to about five or six bowls per day, to which various medicines were ineffective. I considered this to be water overflowing and transforming into phlegm. One dose of the ingredients of Liuwei Dihuang Wan and one dose of Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) were used, leading to slight improvement, and after several doses, she became stable.
A pregnant woman developed coughing and expectoration due to anger, accompanied by pain in both hypochondriac regions. This was Liver Fire injuring Lung Metal. She was treated with Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) plus Zhizi, Zhike, Baizhu, and Fuling, resulting in recovery. Subsequently, she desired to vomit, indicating Liver Wood insulting Spleen Earth. She was treated with Liujunzi Tang plus Shengma and Chaihu, resulting in recovery.
