There is an interpretation that this prescription is a hint from Qin Keqing's parents.
At the beginning of the prescription, "Ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria, Rehmannia glutinosa and Guizhen" are the hints of her suicide, because combining the position of Ginseng and Atractylodes macrocephala in the field of traditional Chinese medicine and the analysis of local dialects, these two medicines represent her parents, which translates as "Ginseng and Atractylodes macrocephala cloud, LingDihuang belongs to the gods", that is to say, Qin Keqing's parents want her to commit suicide in Jiafu.
When Cao Xueqin wrote A Dream of Red Mansions, he did "mean it correctly" in many places, such as Zhen (the truth was covered up) and Jia Zheng's sidekick Zhan Guang (the light was covered up). There is no idle pen in A Dream of Red Mansions, but there is no need to over-interpret it as a gossip denounced by Lu Xun, because A Dream of Red Mansions is a novel after all, and its essence is literary creation.
You know, "Ginseng and Atractylodes macrocephala cloud, Ling Dihuang returning to the body" is a common soup for studying medicine, so conspiracy theorists think that this prescription is to make Qin Keqing commit suicide, which is probably over-interpreted.
In fact, there is no secret in Qin Keqing's prescription, just a prescription for common gynecological diseases.
Qin Keqing suffers from depression. Let's take a look at the causes in the original work of the Red Chamber:
Zhang Youshi: "Grandma is a person with a strong heart and great intelligence. If she is too clever, there will always be unpleasant things. If there are often unpleasant things, she will think too much. This disease is that anxiety hurts the spleen and the liver is too strong. "
You Shi also mentioned in his peers: "He is cautious and has a heavy heart. No matter what he hears, he has to test it for three days and five nights. " This disease is based on this nature. "
Judging from the content of the prescription, it mainly regulates and nourishes, but it does not actually solve the actual root cause of Qin Keqing. Zhang Youshi knows that heart disease still needs to be treated with heart medicine, and there is nothing he can do.
So when Jia Rong asked, "Is this disease life-threatening?"
Zhang Youshi replied: "Grandpa is the most intelligent person. It is not a symptom that people get sick to this point overnight. Taking this medicine depends on medical fate. "
Zhang Youshi euphemistically shirked the role of drugs.
