Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 246 Zhang Yi asks for help

Outside the door of Ma Mansion, a warrior in simple clothes and a weak look leaned against the wall with difficulty. His face was pale and he felt like he might fall to the side of the road and die suddenly at any time.

When he saw Ma Su coming out, the warrior's face was filled with joy and he struggled to salute. However, Ma Su directly helped him up.

"Could it be Zhang Boqi from Guanghan County?" Ma Di glanced at the other party and asked.

"Do you know General Fuguo?" The warrior was suddenly shocked, and for a while he couldn't even utter a word of pleading.

He is Zhang Yi, the captain of the Guanghan Dynasty, and the general who Zhenbei in the late Shu Han Dynasty in history. But now, he is just a general who looks down on a serious illness.

Zhang Yi was a native of Nanchong, Brazil County, and the captain of Guanghan County. During the bandit rebellion in central Sichuan, he was ordered to lead troops to patrol Guanghan County. He defeated the bandit Zhang Mu and was promoted to captain for his merits.

But even so, he lived in poverty. He was seriously ill some time ago and his family did not even have money to treat him.

Zhang Yi had no choice but to come out and find a way to seek treatment.

Originally, he wanted to ask He Zhi, the governor of Guanghan, and theoretically He Zhi would save him. But unfortunately, when Zhang Yi went there, He Zhi had already been transferred to Longyou by the Prime Minister's Office.

There was no other way, so Zhang Yi had to go to Chengdu with great difficulty and beg for someone to help him. After being given some advice, Zhang Yi finally came to Ma Di.

But what Zhang Yi didn't expect was that this famous general of the auxiliary country in Shu actually knew him as a small captain of Guanghan?

"Those who have done meritorious service to the country must be remembered even if they have only one song. Zhang Xiaowei killed the bandits in Guanghan County and served the Han Dynasty. Naturally, I know it very well." Ma Su said casually at this moment, and then called the steward Zhang Yi. He helped him in and sent someone to find Hua Fei.

As a talent in the late Shu Han Dynasty, Zhang Yi was naturally within Ma Su's training range. After all, Shu Han has so many talents, the sudden death of Ma Di will have less impact on Shu Han.

With this idea in mind, Ma Su successively promoted Jiang Wei, Liu Yin, Shu Ji, Wang Ping, and now Zhang Yi.

After helping Zhang Yi in, Hua Fei was also called over. But this man brought all the four treasures of the study with him in large and small bags.

Looking at this posture, I am ready to write a suicide note if I disagree...

"Why are you looking for someone else?" Hua Fei looked at Ma Di with a sullen face, not afraid of offending Ma Di at all.

Everyone knows that Ma Su has an easy-going temperament, and as long as it is not a matter of principle, Ma Su never cares. His dislike of etiquette is deep in his bones, which is why many generals admire him.

"There is a general inside who is seriously ill and is about to die. Please cure him." Ma Di pointed to Zhang Yi in the room, waved his hand to Hua Fei and said.

"Seriously ill and about to die?" Upon hearing this, Hua Fei touched the bamboo slips like a conditioned reflex...

"Bah!" Ma Su slapped his hand away and said speechlessly.

"Don't keep writing suicide notes. This time it's not a serious illness. It's just that this person is from a poor family and has no money for medical treatment, so he came to beg me."

After Ma Su's repeated assurances, Hua Fei doubtfully walked in to check Zhang Yi's pulse. After looking around, Hua Fei's expression softened.

"It's not easy to finally find a person with normal symptoms." Hua Fei had deep doubts about his skills since he came to Chengdu. He was able to help every one of those people whom Ma Su asked him to help treat.

Now that he finally has something he can cure, it can help him regain some confidence.

"Work hard. I'll ask the Prime Minister's Mansion for a few staff later, and I'll ask you to open a medical clinic in Chengdu to recruit disciples and treat diseases." Ma Di patted Hua Fei's shoulder and began to draw the pie with great satisfaction.

"Haha, are you afraid that you have fallen in love with my Qingnang book?" Hua Fei glanced at him speechlessly and said while preparing Zhang Yi's medicine.

"Take a good rest. There is nothing wrong with your illness. You should be cured in a few months."

After saying that, Hua Fei stood up directly, bowed to Ma Di and left.

After Hua Fei left, Zhang Yi quickly wanted to get up and find Ma Di to thank him. However, he was stopped by Ma Su, who said lightly,

"Take good care of your health. You don't need this false courtesy now that you are weak."

"Besides, I don't have any kindness. After all, the general who fought for the country almost died of poverty and illness. This is all the negligence of the imperial court. The imperial court is sorry for a man like you, so how can we talk about kindness?"

After saying that, Ma Di turned around and left without giving Zhang Yi a chance to react.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yi could only remain silent, but his eyes towards Ma Di became brighter.

No wonder General Ma is respected by thousands of people. Such virtue deserves to be respected!

Zhang Yi is not an ambitious person, he just wants to gain qualifications slowly. However, after meeting Ma Su, Zhang Yi quickly had a new goal.

For such a great kindness, Zhang Yi may have no choice but to repay him with death!

After Ma Di left his house, he went straight to the Prime Minister's house.

Zhang Ni came to beg for treatment, which made Ma Su pay attention to a very fatal problem of the big man.

Official salaries are too low, and some people from poor families may not even have money for medical treatment.

There is nothing that can be done, after all, the several high-ranking officials above live in poverty and never make money from their families. The treasury of the Shu Han Dynasty has always been empty, and it is common for officials to be in arrears with their salaries.

The so-called economy anchored by Shu Brocade is, to be honest, not much of a pillar for Shu Han. He just added a little economic confidence to the Shu Han regime that was on the verge of bankruptcy.

You know, even now the Shu Han government still owes a lot of debt. All tax revenue and food were given priority to the army, which also led to the death of all officials.

However, the life of the Shu Han has been lackluster in recent years, so Ma Di hopes to discuss with the Prime Minister's Office to increase the salary of officials.

At least, don't let officials like Zhang Yi die of illness because of poverty, right?

But when Ma Su arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he saw that there was a heated discussion in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Longyou's tax increase in the past two years is indeed a bit abnormal. I have noticed this a long time ago." Jiang Wan took the account book and said while looking through it,

"But overall it's a good thing, so I haven't paid much attention to it."

"But we also need to ask about what General Zhao said. Why did Fei Fei want to smuggle the puppet Wei?"

"Perhaps Ma Fuguo opened a Shu brocade workshop there? Why hasn't this been reported?"

"General Fu Guo has always been like this, knowing that he..."

While everyone was having a heated discussion, they suddenly saw Ma Su entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone stopped talking instantly.

For just a moment, the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was noisy just now, fell silent, and everyone looked at Ma Su.

"Uh... maybe I didn't come at the right time?" Ma Su was a little embarrassed by the group of people, so he spoke first.

"No, you came at the right time, You Chang." Jiang Wan stood up immediately, dragged Ma Su and walked inside.

"There happens to be something. The Prime Minister needs to ask you something. Come in with me."
