Chapter 841: Borrowed books
“How does it taste?” Jin’er asked.
The princess nodded her head: “It’s delicious. It’s different from what I’ve eaten before, it’s really good.”
Jin’er smiled and said: “This is the millet porridge made by Miss Bai herself. Miss Bai not only has good medical skills, but also good cooking.”
The pink lips under the veil curved into a smile: “I don’t know who is so lucky in the future to marry a girl like her.”
Jin’er said: “It is a blessing to marry someone like the princess. To be honest, although this slave admires Miss Bai and also appreciates her personality, she always shows her face outside to treat people’s illnesses. I’m afraid no one will accept to marry her. Which son of a noble family would be willing to marry a woman who goes outside all day long?”
Jin’er glanced at the princess again and said with a smile: “It’s good to marry someone like the princess.”
The princess was coaxed by her and felt a little better. While the two were talking, the bowl of millet porridge was eaten clean.
Jin’er gave the princess a cup of boiling water. The princess finally had a little strength.
At least she can raise her hands freely.
“I want to go for a walk.” The princess said towards Jin’er.
Jin’er hurriedly waved his hand: “No, no, Miss Bai said that you are weak now. You can’t get out of bed and walk around casually. Once you fall, it may worsen your condition.”
The princess sighed and tried to move her legs, but found that her legs could not move on their own. As if the legs were so heavy that she couldn’t lift them at all.
The princess grabbed Jin’er in a panic: “Jin’er, my legs, what’s wrong with my legs? Why can’t I move them? Are they still there? Are my legs still there?”
Jin’er busily replied: “Yes, princess. Your legs are still here. What’s wrong with you?”
“My legs can’t move, I don’t feel them anymore, am I disabled?” The princess’s emotions began to become agitated. The hands holding Jin’er’s arm were constantly trembling.
Jin’er panicked too, but tried to calm the princess’s emotions while shouting outside: “Someone come, someone!”
The errand boy outside heard the call and came in a hurry, then asked Jin’er: “Sister, what’s wrong? What’s the matter?”
Jin’er said: “Hurry up, please go and ask Miss Bai to come over. You go quickly.”
Seeing her like this, the errand boy knew that it was an emergency, so he ran out without saying another word. He ran all the way to the library.
The library of the Imperial Hospital was very large. There were many bookshelves inside, but there were also so many vacant spaces on the shelves. Each vacant space was marked with the name of the book that was previous placed in it.
Obviously, there were books there, but now they were gone.
There were several places like this on every bookshelf. One of the books marked name on the vacant space happened to be the book that Bai Zhi and Imperial Doctor Xu wanted to see.
Bai Zhi asked Imperial Doctor Xu: “Where are these books? Why are they all gone?”
Imperial Doctor Xu sighed and said: “Most of them were borrowed by the imperial doctors and the previous imperial doctors, but they haven’t been returned.”
Bai Zhi was puzzled: “Why? Why not return it?”
Imperial Doctor Xu said: “These medical skills in the books are handed down from generation to generation. Everyone wanted to learn them. Once being brought to their home, who would still be willing to return them? Naturally, they would keep it for their future generations to enjoy.”
A good medical book can make people become a famous doctors. So who doesn’t want to keep such a good thing?
Bai Zhi searched for a long time on the bookshelves but didn’t found the book that she wanted to read. Although there were many books left in the library, none of them were really useful to doctors like her.
