Chapter 142 The New Emperor Disappears



"Mother! Something terrible has happened! I heard the new emperor has gone missing!"

Wan Shu was completely stunned when she heard the news first thing in the morning.

Because in the original novel of "The Strongest Son-in-Law", there is no plot about the new emperor going missing.

What happened? Did she forget some parts of the plot? Or did her appearance cause a butterfly effect in the original story?

The butterfly effect is probably unlikely... After all, she has been staying in Qingshui Village since she transmigrated, and hasn't even left the county town. No matter what, it's impossible for her to cause a butterfly effect in the capital.

"Mother, Mother, what's wrong?"

Si Ya nudged Wan Shu, who was in a daze, with a puzzled look.

Wan Shu came to her senses and shook her head: "It's nothing, Mother is just a little sleepy, she'll be fine after breakfast."

Regardless of the reason for the plot change, the plot has already become what it is. She is just an ordinary farmer, powerless to change anything, and all she can do is accept it and try her best to live her life to the fullest.

Si Ya was a very carefree girl, and she didn't think much of it when she heard that.

Instead, he excitedly carried a large, brightly colored pheasant, weighing about five or six pounds, into the yard.

Wan Shu: "With so many chickens at home, why did you buy wild pheasants?"

"This wasn't bought; Zhuangzhuang hunted it himself!"

Siya exclaimed excitedly, "When I went out to collect hay just now, I took Zhuangzhuang with me. When we were halfway through, I realized Zhuangzhuang was gone. I thought he had gone home by himself. But a little while later, he came out with such a big pheasant!"

"Mother, isn't Zhuangzhuang amazing!"

Wan Shu exclaimed in amazement, "Amazing, of course it's amazing! After all, Zhuangzhuang isn't even an adult yet, and he's already able to hunt."

Even among wild lynxes, Zhuangzhuang's hunting ability is considered very precocious and impressive.

Zhuangzhuang is now mostly fed by Siya.

Hearing Wan Shu praise Zhuangzhuang, she seemed even happier than if she herself had been praised, and proudly puffed out her little chest.

"Our Zhuangzhuang is the most amazing little lynx!"

Wan Shu smiled and coaxed her, "Yes, when Zhuangzhuang grows up a bit more, it might be able to hunt and feed our whole family."

For breakfast, Wan Shu and his family enjoyed a very hearty meal of spicy chicken nuggets with flatbread.

Don't get me wrong, this chicken is not that chicken.

She wasn't shameless enough to steal Zhuangzhuang's prey; the chicken was raised by their own family.

Generally speaking, even in their family, it's rare to have such a lavish breakfast so early in the morning; today is a special case.

Everyone was giving Wan Shu and San Shun a farewell party.

Wan Shu decided to take San Shun to Jingzhou Prefecture.

Allicin has now been produced and has been proven to have a very strong therapeutic effect on existing epidemics.

After observing for the past few days, Wan Shu has roughly determined that this plague cannot be transmitted through respiration.

In other words, as long as she does not eat the meat of a dead pig or come into contact with the bodily fluids of a patient, she will not be infected.

This is a relatively safe situation.

Since it is safe, we can start spreading information about allicin and its extraction methods.

After all, there are so many people in a prefecture, we can't just stand by and watch them die.

Therefore, Wan Shu made the decision to go to Jingzhou Prefecture to find the prefect and spread allicin.

As for why Sam-soon was brought along, it was to have more helpers.

After all, this is not something that can be easily accomplished; it would be difficult for her to handle it alone.

However, the outside world must be very chaotic now because of the epidemic, and for safety reasons, we cannot bring too many people.

So she chose to have the cleverest San Shun accompany her to Jingzhou Prefecture.

The other four little ones looked at them with longing.

"Mother, Sam-soon, you must be careful out there! Be safe!"

"Mother, Third Brother, I will remember you!"

Wan Shu agreed to each of their requests, then patted the heads of the four little ones one by one. Only then did he and San Shun, carrying the tools for extracting allicin and two large bags of garlic, board Uncle Erniu's oxcart.

The carriage swayed and rattled along the country lane, making soft, rustling sounds.

The sound was particularly noticeable in Qingshui Village, which had been quiet for several days.

Many people were peering out the window.

"Didn't they say no one is allowed to leave the village now? How come Fugui's wife took Sanshun out?"

"They've broken the rules set by the village head! Two of you go tell him!"

An insider has spoken out.

“The village head had known about it for a long time, and it was he who agreed to let Fugui’s wife leave the village.”

"This time, the wealthy wife left the village not for any other reason, but for the sake of our entire prefecture!"

"She wants to spread the word about the miraculous medicine that cured Aunt Zhao's family, so that it can benefit the entire prefecture!"

Upon hearing this, the villagers' dissatisfaction with Wan Shu instantly turned into admiration.

"That wealthy wife is truly kind-hearted!"

"She saved Fucheng, and in doing so, she saved us! She's such a wonderful person!"

"If it weren't for the wealthy wife, we would probably all be dead like Wang Dajiao by now."

The villagers mostly praised Wan Shu, but Li Cuilan showed a disdainful expression after hearing about it.

Ha! That bitch, always trying to ride the wave of fame, as if she's afraid no one won't know she can cure diseases. She's utterly disgusting!

But soon, as if she had just thought of something, Li Cuilan's eyes lit up, and she rushed back into the courtyard, excitedly saying...

"Mother, Mother! We must find a chance to leave the village and go find Zhenlang!"

"It's so dangerous outside, why are you going to see him now?"

Li Cuilan's eyes lit up.

“Zhenlang told me that although he is now the headmaster of Dongcheng Academy, because he is not the biological son of the previous headmaster, many old men in the academy do not respect him, and the magistrate of our Jingzhou Prefecture is not very willing to pay attention to him.”

"In order to convince them, Qin Lang has always wanted to make a great contribution in Jingzhou Prefecture, so that they will look at him with new eyes."

"The entire prefecture is now engulfed in an epidemic. Mother, tell me, if Zhenlang could create a miraculous medicine to cure the plague, wouldn't that be a great achievement?!"

Lin looked hesitant: "Yes, yes, but the miracle cure for the plague was made by Wan Shu, and it has nothing to do with us."

"It doesn't matter now, it will definitely matter later!"

A glint of light flashed in Li Cuilan's eyes.

"If we just find an opportunity to steal the miracle drug she made, wouldn't it become our own creation?"
