魏文王有一次问扁鹊,你们兄弟三人都精通医术,到底哪一个最好呢?扁鹊回答道,长兄最好,次兄次之,我最差。文王又问,那为什么你最出名呢,扁鹊说我长兄治病,是治于病情未发作之前,我次兄治病,是治于病情初起之时,而我治于病情严重 Wei Wenwang once asked Bian Bian that all three of your brothers are proficient in medical techniques. Which one is best? The Bian Que replied that the eldest brother is the best, the second is the second, and I am the worst. Wen Wang also asked why you were best known. He said that my eldest brother had been treated for illness. Before my illness began, my second brother was healed. It was when the illness began and I was severely ill.
