A short story about Bian Que's treatment.

Once, when I came to see Cai, Duke Huan knew that he was famous and gave a banquet to entertain him. When Huan Gong saw it, he said, "Your Majesty is ill, but he is in the skin. If you don't treat him, you will recover." Huan Gong didn't believe it, and he was still very unhappy. After 10 days, Bian Que went to see him again and said, "Your Majesty's illness has reached his blood, and it will deepen without treatment." Huan Gong still doesn't believe it, and he is even more unhappy.

After another 10 day, when Bian Que saw Huan Gong again, he said, "The disease has reached the stomach, and it will get worse if we don't treat it." Huan Gong was very angry. He didn't like being told that he was ill. 10 days have passed again. This time, when Bian Que saw Huan Gong, he quickly dodged. Huan Gong was very puzzled and sent someone to ask. Bian Que said: when the disease is between the skin, it can be cured by ironing medicine; In terms of blood vessels, acupuncture and bianshi can be used to achieve therapeutic effects.

When in the stomach, it can also be achieved through the power of wine; But if you get sick to the bone marrow, you can't cure it. Now that the king's illness has penetrated into the bone marrow, there is nothing I can do. Sure enough, five days later, Huan Gong was seriously ill and sent for Bian Que, but he had already left. Soon, Huan Gong died like this.
