Wang Huai-yin (about 925-997) was a native of Suiyang, Songzhou (now south of Shangqiu (SP5), Henan). He was a Taoist priest at first and lived in Jianlongguan, Kaifeng, the capital. He was good at medical treatment. At the beginning of the Taiping and the Restoration of the Kingdom, he was ordered to return to secular life and was appointed as Shang Yao Fengyu. He was promoted to Imperial Medical Officer and served in Beijing until his death. After Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty came to the throne, he ordered Wang Huai-yin and four other people to collect more than a thousand famous prescriptions, collate and catalog them, and each volume was preceded by the relevant discussion of Chao Yuan-fang Zhubing Yuanhou Lun, the imperial physician of the Sui Dynasty.

Wang et al. adopted the system of classifying diseases and syndromes by zang-fu organs and various disciplines, discussing the rear part first, and citing Zhubing Yuanhou Lun's theory as the summary under each branch. theory, and then collects prescriptions and medicines, which embodies a relatively complete syndrome differentiation and treatment system of principles, methods, prescriptions, and medicines, and has high clinical practical value.
