Zhang Zhongjing (150-219), famous machine, character Zhongjing, Eastern Han Dynasty Nanyang people, ancient Chinese great physician, the world medical history of great people. During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han, he held up filial piety and was an official in Changsha. Throughout his life, he diligently sought ancient teachings, learned from all sides, gathered the great achievements of his predecessors, collected the essence of four generations, and wrote the immortal medical masterpiece "On Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases". This medical book melts the rational prescription medicine in one furnace, opens the precedent of dialectical theory and treatment, and forms a unique Chinese medical thought system, which has played a huge role in promoting the development of the future generation of medicine #Traditional Chinese Medicine.
#Zhang Zhongjing #Lived in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, an extremely turbulent era in Chinese history, with frequent wars, epidemics of plague, displacement of the people, and lack of livelihood. Zhang Zhongjing's family was originally a large family, with a population of more than 200 people. In less than a decade since the early years of Jian'an, two-thirds of people have died from the epidemic, of which seven-tenths have died of typhoid fever.
In the face of the raging plague, Zhang Zhongjing was very sad and indignant in his heart. During his tenure as Taishou in Changsha, in addition to taking care of political affairs, he "sat in the hall and practiced medicine", providing medicine and diagnosis for the people, saving the lives of many people, and later generations called the place where the healing of the sick was called "tang". Later, Zhang Zhongjing resigned from his post as Taishou of Changsha, immersed himself in the diagnosis and treatment of typhoid fever, conscientiously summarized the medical theories and experiences of his predecessors, extensively collected folk prescriptions, and wrote a medical masterpiece called "On Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases". It is a collection of medical theories since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and widely used in medical practice, is one of the most influential classical medical works in the history of medicine in China, and is also the first monograph on clinical therapeutics in China, which has become an important medical book that everyone must read in later generations of practitioners. Zhang Zhongjing was also known as the "Saint of Medicine" by posterity for his outstanding contributions to medicine. It is not only respected by successive generations of medical scientists in China, but also imitated by medical scientists in Japan, Korea, Europe and the United States, and is known as "the sect of all laws, the ancestor of the group, and the holy book of medicine". After the medical forest, Zhang Zhongjing was regarded as "the saint of medicine" and "the sect of all generations of medicine". Bao Demo, a medical professor at the University of Washington in the United States, once said with emotion: "Einstein founded the theory of relativity, but Zhang Zhongjing had applied the principle of relativity to practice as early as 1800 years ago, and Zhang Zhongjing is the pride of our human beings." "In 1993, the International Authoritative Research Institute for medical history, the Wellcome Institute of Medical History in London, England, included Zhang Zhongjing in the list of 29 great figures in the history of medicine in the world, and carried it forward and commemorated.
"Dumplings" is a traditional cuisine unique to China, which has a history of nearly two thousand years, and people like to eat #dumplings during the Chinese New Year festival, especially in the north, which is loved by the people. Dumplings were first called Jiao'er, which was invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a medical saint in China. Zhang Zhongjing was a filial servant of Nanyang Commandery during the reign of Emperor Ling of Han, and therefore served as the Taishou of Changsha. When Zhang Zhongjing was too punctual in Changsha, he often gave medicine to save people by eliminating diseases and diseases, and was deeply loved by the people. Due to the large-scale outbreak of typhoid fever throughout the country at that time, 134 of Zhang Zhongjing's own family of more than 200 people fell ill in a few years, and as many as 90 people died of typhoid fever. Under these circumstances, Zhang Zhongjing resolutely resigned from his post as Taishou and returned to his hometown to specialize in medical techniques, and he seriously healed both the poor and the rich, saving countless lives. When Zhang Zhongjing returned from Changsha to the bank of the Baihe River in his hometown, he saw many poor people starving in the cold weather, and some even had their ears frozen.
When he saw it, he felt very uncomfortable and decided that he would save them. After Zhang Zhongjing returned home, although the patients were much more special, he still had in mind the poor people whose ears were frozen, so he followed the method he had used in Changsha, let people set up a medical shed on a vacant lot and set up a cauldron, and began to treat the poor on the day of the winter solstice.
Zhang Zhongjing's medicine for curing the disease is called Cold Jiao'er Soup, which is to use lamb, peppers and many cold herbs to boil together, and then fish out and chop these boiled things, and then wrap them into ear-like ears with dough skin, cook them in the pot and then distribute them to these patients who beg for medicine. Each person has two delicate ears in a bowl of soup, and people are warm and warm after drinking the cold soup. It was later found that people's ears that were frozen after eating for a while were fine. Because Zhang Zhongjingshe medicine lasted from the winter solstice until Chinese New Year's Eve.
Doctor Zhang Zhongjing made cold ear soup to treat patients
People celebrate the New Year on the first day of the New Year and also celebrate the recovery of frozen ears, so people eat the New Year's food according to the appearance of the ear, and also eat on the morning of the first day.
Later, people called this food dumplings and dumplings, and then ate them on the winter solstice and the first day of the New Year to commemorate the days when Zhang Zhongjing gave medicine and cured the sick. Although Zhang Zhongjing has been away from us for more than 1,800 years, the story of his cold and delicate ear soup has been widely circulated in the folk. #Epidemic # is not over, Chinese medicine is the wisdom left by the old ancestors; it is not necessary for future generations to follow the old ways, but the system and theory of Chinese medicine, as well as the precious wisdom left by the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, are worth thinking about and better inheriting from each of us. This spirit is not only medical, but also a simple national patriotic feeling of helping the world and caring for the people.
Where there are Chinese, there are our dumplings!
