Chapter 42: Only when you have something to ask for, you will do your best
Su Ying thought that "No War in the Past" was a boring online novel for human spiritual food, so she casually said, "Have you heard of the Divine Doctor Valley?"
Sima Chen was stunned. "Young lady, you are from the Divine Doctor Valley? This is really disrespectful. Please wait in the house for a moment. I will go and inform my father."
Su Ying nodded calmly and followed the maid into a room.
Not long after she sat down, a maid came in with a clean dress, saying that Princess Ma's illness could not be contaminated by any dirt, so before seeing her, she needed to take a bath and change into clean clothes.
Su Ying knew that they were going to search her body in disguise, so she cooperated and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.
After coming out and packing everything, Sima Chen arrived outside the door.
"I don't know what to call the girl?"
"Surname Su."
Sima Chen nodded slightly, "Miss Su, please."
Su Ying stood up and followed him to the main courtyard.
The security outside the main courtyard was tight, and even though there were many servants inside the courtyard, it remained silent.
Sima Chen took Su Ying directly to the door of the house. The maid guarding outside the door bowed to him, pushed the door open and brought the two in.
As soon as she entered the room, Su Ying smelled a strong smell of medicine. The air in the room was stuffy, making people feel uncomfortable.
"Father."
The middle-aged man sitting in front of the bed stood up when he heard that. He had a full beard, a pair of tiger eyes with a strange scarlet color, and a scarlet round-necked, narrow-sleeved robe, which made him look tall and mighty. Just one look was full of oppression.
The Horse King nodded and turned to look at Su Ying. His eyes were as sharp as a sword that almost pierced Su Ying.
Su Ying saluted without changing her expression, "My daughter pays respect to His Majesty."
The Horse King looked at her scrutinizingly, "Are you the one who revealed the list?"
"yes."
"You came from the Divine Doctor Valley? Who is Divine Doctor Xue to you?"
"I don't know who Divine Doctor Xue is. I have been taught medicine in Divine Doctor Valley for many years. After I learned the skills, my master asked me to go out of the valley to gain experience. I happened to pass by Mawang City and saw the notice, so I took down the list."
What Su Ying didn't know was that Doctor Xue was just a fabrication by Ma Wang just to test Su Ying's identity. He just didn't expect that she could answer so perfectly, and for a moment he couldn't figure out whether she was from the Valley of Divine Doctors or not.
"Your Majesty, illness cannot wait. Let me see the princess first."
The Horse King was silent for a moment. Thinking that he was just watching from the side and that Su Ying couldn't do anything, he nodded.
Seeing this, Sima Chen turned around and stood aside to avoid it.
Su Ying looked at Princess Ma lying on the bed, only to see that she was thin and had a hint of death on her face. It looked like she would not live long.
Su Ying pulled open the quilt on Princess Ma and unbuttoned the front. King Ma frowned when he saw her actions, but did not step forward to stop her.
Su Ying directly undressed Princess Ma, exposing her chest.
When she saw the situation on her chest clearly, she had already made her own judgment.
"I wonder how long you've had this condition, Princess? Tell me about the initial symptoms."
The Horse King frowned and said, "More than a month ago, the princess suddenly felt pain in her chest. Later, the doctor said that it was due to blood stasis and chest congestion, so he prescribed medicine. However, after taking the medicine, there was still no improvement and she felt more and more uncomfortable. After that, she began to lose her appetite, and it has developed to this day..."
"Princess Ma's illness is a bit troublesome, and the treatment method will be different. I wonder if King Ma can accept it."
The Horse King frowned and asked, "Can you cure the Ma Princess's illness?"
"It is difficult to completely cure Princess Ma's disease, so even if it is temporarily cured, you still have to continue taking medicine to maintain it."
"How are you going to treat it?"
"Remove the lesion." Su Ying stretched out her hand and drew a circle on Princess Ma's chest. "If the lesion here is not removed in time, you will not survive this month."
"What, all cut off?"
"Your Highness, think about this. If you are injured on the battlefield and the wound is not treated in time, it will fester and rot. This is the case with Princess Ma now. You can see that her lesion has obvious changes. If it is not removed in time, the lesion will spread to the internal organs and the person will be beyond saving."
Su Ying's explanation allowed Prince Ma to have a more intuitive understanding of Princess Ma's current condition.
But Princess Ma was already so weak. If he cut her flesh and drained her blood, he was worried whether she would be able to survive.
But it cannot be cured. Just as Su Ying said, people cannot survive this month. These are also the original words left by many doctors.
When Sima Chen heard Su Ying's words, he couldn't help but ask, "How sure are you, Miss Su?"
"About 50 to 60 percent." In fact, she was at least 90 percent sure, but she would not give the patient's family such high expectations. After all, no one could predict what accidents might happen during the operation.
Fifty to sixty percent is actually quite a lot.
"If you want to treat it, Your Majesty should decide as soon as possible. The longer this disease is delayed, the more danger the princess will face."
"Let me think about this for a moment."
Su Ying didn't say anything else and followed the maid out of the house.
She knew Ma Wang would eventually let her treat him because he had no other choice.
Sure enough, not long after, the Horse King asked her to return to the house. However, he did not ask her about the treatment plan for Princess Horse, but asked her what she wanted.
Su Ying said without hesitation: "Gold, silver and jewelry, as much as you can get."
The Horse King was stunned. He didn't expect her to be so direct. But it was good this way. She would only do her best if she had something to ask for.
"Okay, as long as you can cure the princess, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of silver."
Su Ying had no idea about the bounty of ten thousand taels, but it sounded like a lot.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I have a few requests before you treat me."
"you say."
"During the treatment, no one else can be present. Also, after the lesion is removed, everything must be maintained according to my requirements, otherwise I will not be responsible for any problems."
The horse king was a little dissatisfied, but he still agreed: "Okay, everything will be done according to your request. If you need anything else, just ask for it."
"I need a clean room, a table for Princess Ma to lie down on, and a small table to place utensils. From now on, the princess cannot eat anything, not even water. After twelve hours, the treatment will begin."
"Why can't we drink water or eat food for twelve hours?" Sima Chen asked puzzledly.
"This question is complicated to explain. You just need to know that if you don't do it, the princess' life will be in danger."
Sima Chen didn't ask any more questions after hearing what he said. Since he had chosen to believe her, he shouldn't doubt it.
Outside Mawang City, the officials who were going to replenish dry food supplies had already come out, but the two little kids could not wait for Su Ying to return for a long time.
"Dad, why hasn't Mom come back yet?"
Although Dabao didn't ask, his big eyes were always looking towards the city gate.
At this time, Li Da ordered the team to prepare to set off, and the two babies became anxious.
