Chapter 41 Who Are You?
For more than a month, Su Ying and the others were on the road. Fortunately, after passing Zhuzhou, the weather was sunny all the time, and their pace was much faster than before. They arrived at Mawang City before the end of the month.
Su Ying looked at the towering city gate of Mawang City and always felt that this place was different from other places.
"Is this Horse King City the fiefdom of the king?"
Xiao Jin glanced at the direction of the city gate and nodded, "Yes, the ancestor emperor killed the traitors, upheld justice, and established the Great Chu State. The Horse King was a capable general in front of the ancestor emperor. After the ancestor ascended the throne, the Horse King was awarded a fiefdom, and the fiefdom was named after the Horse King's title."
No wonder the Mawang City looks more solemn and dignified than other cities. The soldiers guarding outside the city gate are also more strict. Anyone who wants to enter the city must not only have their household registration checked but also be searched.
The location of Mawang City is hundreds of miles away from the nearest city, so the imperial court also set up a grain supply point in Mawang City.
In order to show his loyalty to the court, King Ma naturally would not refuse.
Su Ying was just about to find a place to sit down when she saw a group of soldiers coming out of the city. They were holding notices and posting them on the city wall. After posting them, the people came forward to join in the fun.
Someone who could read read from the notice: "Because the princess is seriously ill, the king of Ma is looking for a famous doctor inside and outside the city. If you can cure the princess, you will be rewarded handsomely."
Su Ying stood behind the common people, her eyes falling on the three big words "There will be a generous reward".
Along the way, she also found some supplies in the mountains, but the supplies were limited. Seeing that she was about to reach the northern wilderness, she didn't want to miss any opportunity to get supplies and money.
Li Da was just about to go into the city with his men when he turned around and saw Su Ying approaching. Li Da was very tactful and asked someone to bring a clean official uniform.
"Princess, if you want to buy something, come with us into the city."
"No hurry, I have something to tell Master Li."
Li Da pulled the corner of his mouth, "What's the matter?"
Su Ying unfolded the notice in her hand for him to see, and pointed at it with her hand, "I'll take down this list."
Li Da's skin tightened after reading it. It would be fine if Su Ying went to fight, but she also had to cure illnesses and save lives! Or to cure Princess Ma! What if, what if something went wrong, wouldn't he be unlucky with her?
Li Da's head shook like a rattle in an instant.
"Princess, stop joking."
Su Ying raised her eyes slightly, "Do you think I'm joking?"
"What if..."
"Nothing will happen. Just take me into the city and I'll take care of the rest."
Li Da was still a little worried. The risk of this matter was much greater than just letting Su Ying run away. "Princess, this Horse King is not someone you can easily mess with."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "Do I look like someone who is easy to mess with?"
Li Da choked and said, "Okay, he will bring the people into the city and let them fight."
Su Ying returned to Xiao Jin and told him that she was going into the city.
"You want to go into the city to treat Princess Ma?" Xiao Jin frowned, seeming to disapprove.
"Yes, the great Horse King, if I can cure his princess's illness, the medical fee will definitely not be small."
"The horse king has a violent temper and is difficult to deal with."
"Even if he is the King of Hell, I am not afraid of him."
Seeing that she was determined, Xiao Jin did not try to persuade her any further. "Be careful and do not let him know your identity."
Su Yingen said, "Do you have a grudge against him?"
Xiao Jin narrowed his dark eyes, "I guess so."
"Got it. If I can't come back in time, you take good care of the child."
Xiao Jin frowned even more tightly, "If it doesn't work, find a way to get out of this."
"kindness."
Except for Xiao Jin and Li Da, no one knew what Su Ying was going to do in the city. The two little kids just thought that Su Ying was going into the city to purchase things like she did before.
After changing into official uniform, Su Ying entered the city smoothly with Li Da.
"Princess, please be careful. I will not accompany you."
"If I come back late, don't wait for me. I will catch up along the way myself."
Li Da thought to himself, if you really don't want to come back it's not impossible!
After separating from Li Da, Su Ying found a clothing store and bought an ordinary coarse cloth dress to change into. She then rented a carriage and arrived outside the Ma Wang Mansion.
The Ma Wang Mansion occupies almost an entire street, and there is almost no end in sight.
Su Ying arrived outside the palace and just as she stepped out of the door, she was stopped by the guards.
"Who are you? Go away. This is not the place for you to come."
Su Ying took out the notice from her body and unfolded it, "I uncovered the notice to treat Princess Ma."
When the guards heard her say this, they looked at each other and saw mocking smiles in each other's eyes.
"Where did this ignorant village woman come from? The princess is not someone you lowly people can see whenever you want. Get out of here if you know what's best for you, or I'll throw you out."
Su Ying sneered when she heard this, "It turns out that the prince was talking nonsense about finding talented people. The people he keeps are just idiots who look down on others and don't know what they are worth."
"What are you saying, country woman? How dare you speak so arrogantly in front of the palace? You are so brave!"
The smile in Su Ying's eyes turned colder. "Why, did I say something wrong? If you can't accept all rivers, why bother posting a false notice? In your eyes, what should a doctor be?"
"How dare you! Arrest her for me!"
"stop."
A clear voice sounded behind him.
Upon hearing this, the palace guards all stepped aside respectfully, "Greetings, Prince."
Su Ying turned around and saw a young man in a plain Confucian robe walking towards her.
He has a face as handsome as jade, eyes as bright as stars, and the scholar's robe makes him look even more gentle.
Sima Chen walked up to Su Ying and nodded slightly, "I apologize for offending you just now. I hope you can forgive me. Did you come here to treat your mother after uncovering the notice?"
Su Ying nodded, "That's right."
Sima Chen smiled and turned sideways, "Miss, please."
Su Ying followed Sima Chen into Prince Ma's mansion.
After entering the gate, there is a large fish pond. Walking along the corridor, there are pavilions and rockery on both sides, and the atmosphere is elegant everywhere.
However, Su Ying had no intention of appreciating the scenery in front of her. She only wanted to see the patient as soon as possible.
"I wonder where the girl lives, what her name is, and who her teacher is?"
Su Ying paused for a moment, "Sir, don't be suspicious. You can have someone search me before seeing the patient. If I show any suspicious behavior, just lock me up immediately."
Sima Chen was slightly stunned. He didn't expect her to say it so directly.
Princess Ma is such a person that she certainly won’t bring anyone to her.
"I see your lips are lightly bluish purple, sir. Do you have a heart disease? And it must have been with you since you were born."
These words completely stunned Sima Chen. Not many people knew that he had a heart disease. Because he took medicine all the year round, his disease did not usually flare up. He did not expect that she could see it at a glance.
"Who are you?"
