Zeqi (Euphorbia helioscopia)
Bitter, pungent, slightly cold, non-toxic. Primarily treats skin heat, abdominal ascites (fluid accumulation in the abdomen), edema of the four limbs and face, insufficiency of Yin-Qi in men, promotes urination through the Large Intestine and Small Intestine, brightens the eyes, and lightens the body. Also known as Qijing, it is the seedling of Daye (Euphorbia pekinensis). Grows in the streams and marshes of Mount Tai. Harvest stems and leaves on the third day of the third lunar month and the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, and dry in the shade. (Chixiaodou [Adzuki Bean] serves as a guiding herb; adverse with Shuyu [Dioscorea opposita].)
Tao Hongjing stated: This is the seedling of Daye. When fresh, picking the leaves yields a white juice, hence the name Zeqi. It can also bite human flesh. Chen Yuxi et al., according to the Shuben Tu Jing, stated: Harvest in May, sun-dry for use. Yao Xing Lun stated: Zeqi, when used as a guiding herb, treats heat in the human肌 (skin/muscle) and promotes urination. Ri Huazi stated: Cold nature, slightly toxic. Stops malaria, resolves phlegm, and reduces fever. This is the flower of Daye. Found in streams and marshes. The stems are slender, bearing yellow flowers; leaves resemble tender vegetables. Harvested in April and May. Tu Jing stated: Zeqi is the seedling of Daye. Grows in the streams and marshes of Qin region; currently found in Jizhou, Dingzhou, Mingzhou, and along nearby routes. When fresh, picking the leaves yields white juice. It can also bite, hence the name. However, Zhang Zhongjing treated lung cough with Qi rebellion (cough and asthma due to rebellious Lung Qi) with a deep pulse using Zeqi Tang. Zeqi 3 jin, boiled in 5 dou of east-flowing water until reduced to 1.5 dou. Then add Banxia 0.5 sheng, Zishen, Shengjiang, and Baiqian each 5 liang, Gancao, Huangqin, Renshen, and Guizhi each 3 liang. Decoct these eight herbs, combine with the Zeqi decoction, and boil down to 5 sheng. Take 5 he per dose, three times daily, finishing by night.
Tang Ben Bu Yi added: Slightly toxic. Drains water, primarily treats Gu Du (parasitic toxicity). Shenghui Fang: Treats ten types of Water-Qi disorders. Use Zeqi 10 jin, harvest stems and tender leaves in summer, add 1 dou of wine, grind to extract approximately 2 dou of juice. Simmer slowly in a silver pot until resembling thin syrup, then stop. Store in porcelain. Each morning on an empty stomach, take one tea spoonful mixed with warm wine, until cured.
