A palace maid put a silk handkerchief on Concubine Li's wrist. Ye Shengge held her breath and concentrated, and gently placed three fingers on the inch-guarantee ruler.The pulse under the fingertips beat rapidly and powerfully, but there was a hint of astringency deep down.
"Can your Majesty allow me to take a look at the coating on my tongue?"
Li Fei glanced at him, a little impatient, but she still followed the words and opened her mouth slightly.
The tongue is red and the fur is thin, yellow and dry.
"Have you often felt hot and bothered recently, especially in the afternoon and night? Your mouth is dry and you want to drink, but drinking does not quench your thirst. Your palms and soles are hot, your sleep is restless, and you are prone to aphthous sores?" Ye Shengge withdrew his hand and lowered his eyes and asked.
Li Fei's careless expression calmed down a bit, and she glanced at him: "It's interesting, keep talking."
"Although the empress feels internal heat, she is afraid of wind and does not like cold. She occasionally has an itchy throat and a slight cough, with less and sticky phlegm. Is this so?"
Concubine Li sat up straight, her eyes falling on Ye Shengge's lowered head: "You really have a problem. The imperial doctor only said that I have a strong liver fire, so he prescribed some prescriptions to clear the fire, but it didn't feel better after taking it. Instead, I felt epigastric discomfort. What do you think is the reason for this?"
Ye Shengge pondered for a moment and replied cautiously: "Returning to Madam, according to my humble opinion, Madam's disease is not an ordinary excessive fire, but a sign of 'fire stagnation and internal burning'."
"It seems to be cold on the outside, but in reality the internal heat is stagnant for a long time and cannot be released. The heat is trapped inside and burns the yin fluid, so you can see five palpitations and heat, dry mouth and tongue; the stagnant heat is fumigated and disturbs the mind, resulting in poor sleep and irritability."
"However, this fire is stagnant fire. Medicines used to clear away bitter cold can easily damage the spleen and stomach. On the contrary, they will make Qi more stagnant and stagnant heat deeper, so they will be ineffective or even aggravate."
He paused and added: "This syndrome is exactly the opposite of Concubine Wan Guifei's body of internal deficiencies and coldness and lack of yang energy."
After hearing this, Li Fei stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed, but the laughter was not warm: "Okay, that's good. It seems that you are not a blind cat who just met a dead mouse. So, how should I treat it?"
"The first priority of this disease is to relieve the stagnation of heat and relieve qi, rather than blindly clearing and purging. The medicine should be mainly light and clear, supplemented by nourishing yin, slowly and slowly, and it is also necessary to regulate emotions and avoid eating spicy, thick, and warming foods." Ye Shengge considered the words.
"Emotions?" Concubine Li sneered, but her eyes turned cold, "In this palace, how do you ask me to regulate my emotions?"
"Well, since you can see the crux, you must have some means. Come and give me some massage and counseling. If you can make me feel more comfortable at this moment, I will be rewarded."
Not allowing Ye Shengge to refuse, she leaned back on the couch again, closed her eyes slightly, and looked like she was waiting to be served.
Ye Shengge had no choice but to step forward.
He cleaned his hands, recalled his pulse and tongue coating, and judged that the main areas of stagnation due to stagnation of heat were the liver meridian and chest and hypochondrium.He stretched out his fingers and pressed an acupuncture point under her ribs accurately through her clothes.
