Wei, Qi, Ying, Xue
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
A syndrome differentiation system for warm diseases (infectious/febrile diseases) established by Ye Tianshi. It divides the depth of illness into four defense lines: Wei (superficial/early stage), Qi (interior heat/high fever), Ying (entering the brain/yin injury), and Xue (moving blood/consuming blood).
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Defense-in-depth assessment. This is a defense map for 'heat warfare'. Assess how many defense lines the enemy (virus/heat pathogen) has penetrated. At the Qi level, clear heat; when entering Ying and Xue, cool the blood and expel heat. It is strictly forbidden to use deep-level drugs at shallow levels (inviting the wolf into the house).
Anchor fast decisions
Warm diseases are divided into four defense lines according to the depth of the disease location: Wei (superficial) → Qi (interior heat) → Ying (yin injury entering the heart) → Xue (consuming blood and moving blood). Treatment progresses layer by layer: shallow layers use shallow-acting drugs, deep layers use deep-acting drugs, and it is strictly forbidden to mislayer and invite the pathogen.
