Li Ma Ma recalled the past: "Until one day, I met an imperial physician who had retired and returned home. He told me that this was a secret medicine that had been lost in the palace for many years. The initial symptoms were very similar to those of a cold, difficult to detect, and without life or breath, so many doctors would misdiagnose it."
