After administering vaccines to the two children, Hanno suddenly recalled the issue of Cowpox, a concern that often arises for time travelers. The Great Zhou Dynasty was also threatened by smallpox, even more severely than during the Qing Dynasty. However, since Hanno had not encountered any smallpox patients since arriving in the Great Zhou, she had forgotten about this deadly disease from ancient times. Now that it came to mind, she knew she had to address it immediately.
Hanno returned to the modern era to gather information. Historical records indicated that smallpox had been documented as early as the Song Dynasty. According to the Qing Dynasty physician Zhu Chungi in his work "Variola Theory," during the reigns of Song Zhenzong or Ren Zong, there was a healer in Emei Mountain, Sichuan, who could inoculate against smallpox and was hailed as a miracle worker. He was later invited to Kaifeng Prefecture, where he successfully inoculated Wang Su, the son of Prime Minister Wang Dan. However, this method involved using human smallpox, which was extremely dangerous and could lead to death if not survived. In contrast, Cowpox was much safer—no one who received a Cowpox vaccination would contract smallpox. Unfortunately, Cowpox was not known among the Chinese people; it was popularized by Edward Jenner in England. The method for administering Cowpox was straightforward, so Hanno printed out the instructions and returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty to share them with Geng Shi'an.
Upon seeing the information, Geng Shi'an was overwhelmed with excitement. If what was written in the documents was true, Cowpox could indeed prevent smallpox—this would be a tremendous benefit for society. His reputation would spread alongside the introduction of Cowpox vaccination.
"Hanno, are you really giving me this information?" Geng Shi'an stammered in disbelief.
Hanno smiled and nodded. "You are a doctor; if I don't give it to you, it won't do me any good."
Geng Shi'an immediately assured her, "Don't worry; I will make good use of this information and spread the method of using Cowpox to prevent smallpox."
"What are you spreading?" Elder Brother Li entered the room, looking somewhat fatigued.
Hanno stepped forward with concern. "Why do you look so tired?"
Elder Brother Li smiled lightly. "It's nothing; I'll be fine after this period."
Understanding that Elder Brother Li knew his limits, Hanno briefly explained the situation regarding Cowpox.
Elder Brother Li turned to Geng Shi'an and said, "Before promoting Cowpox, you need to submit a memorial to report this matter to the emperor."
Geng Shi'an suddenly realized, "Right! I got too excited and forgot that such an achievement must be presented to the emperor. Wei Feng, why don't you write the memorial?"
Elder Brother Li shook his head. "Do you think I’m not already under enough scrutiny from the emperor?"
Geng Shi'an's expression stiffened as he sighed and put away the documents. "Then I will humbly take on this task."
Elder Brother Li chuckled. "We're brothers; there's no need for such formality. You're doing me a favor."
Hanno smiled as he stepped forward. "Jiang Shi'an, stay for dinner! I'll cook a couple of dishes, and you brothers can have a few drinks?"
Geng Shi'an laughed heartily. "I’m in for a treat!"
Moonlight streamed into the room, and although there were no candles lit, it didn’t hinder Hanno and Elder Brother Li's visibility.
Elder Brother Li sighed. "Nono, write another piece. I want to upgrade Porcelain Jar as soon as possible and bring Zhou Le and Li Yishu into the modern world."
Hanno nodded. "Alright, I’ll start brainstorming right away. Actually—"
Hanno changed his tone. "Even if Porcelain Jar doesn’t upgrade, we shouldn’t fear Li Xuan Zong. We could always switch to another emperor!"
Elder Brother Li shook his head. "Though Li Xuan Zong hasn’t been loyal to me, he is indeed a good emperor. If we replace him with someone else, they might not govern as well. What if we end up repeating the previous internal strife? The common people would suffer."
Hanno couldn’t help but poke Elder Brother Li’s forehead with his finger. "Have you been in ancient times too long? Have you forgotten about constitutional monarchy? Even if the Great Zhou can’t implement it at this stage, we could at least emulate the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty or the Eight Kings' political discussions of the Qing Dynasty."
Elder Brother Li was taken aback for a moment before laughing and patting his forehead where Hanno had poked him. "I’ve become foolish! Being in a feudal society for so long has made me forget that I came from a socialist society."
Li Zhoule had already recovered, and Hanno entrusted all matters of the Li Residence to her while spending most of her time in the present, under the pretense of—nurturing her pregnancy. In reality, she was playing on her computer, using her phone, and watching TV—activities that emitted radiation—but Hanno didn’t miss any of them. However, she always protected her belly with True Essence; the radiation couldn’t penetrate the Spiritual Energy barrier she set up, keeping the baby safe.
Three months into her pregnancy with twins, Hanno’s belly had slightly rounded out. Elder Brother Li accompanied Hanno to the hospital for a check-up. Although with their powerful cultivation abilities, they could easily assess the baby's condition with Divine Sense, the clueless soon-to-be father insisted on taking Hanno to the hospital for an examination and even asked the nurse for a pregnancy handbook, strictly adhering to every guideline within it. In response, Hanno kicked Elder Brother Li back to the Great Zhou World.
Snow Vegetable: Dear, you finally came online.
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: Didn’t all the manuscripts get uploaded? I’ll just follow through when it’s time; it has nothing to do with me.
Snow Vegetable: Is it not the right time now? Do you have time? How about writing another one?
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: Not really.
Although she had ideas for upgrading Porcelain Jar, she didn't like being pushed to write.
Snow Vegetable: Dear, there are rewards!
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: Don’t tell me your website is holding some kind of writing contest again?
Snow Vegetable: Bingo, you got it right. Our website is currently hosting a 'Stargazing' writing contest, inviting both new and old authors to participate. There are rewards for the top thirty!
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: What kind of rewards? If they’re substantial, I might join.
Snow Vegetable: The website will organize a trip to Hainan Island for the top thirty participants for two or three nights. Additionally, those who place from thirty to twenty will receive five thousand yuan; from twenty to ten, they will get ten thousand yuan; fourth to tenth place will receive between twenty thousand and eighty thousand yuan; third place gets one hundred thousand yuan; second place gets one hundred fifty thousand yuan; and first place gets two hundred thousand yuan.
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: That’s quite generous! *scratches chin* Since that’s the case, I’ll participate. I doubt I’ll make it into the top ten, but getting into the top thirty for a trip to Hainan isn’t bad either.
Snow Vegetable: ╰(*°▽°*)╯ Go for it!
A Promise is Worth a Thousand Gold: Stop being cute. Farewell, I need to brainstorm for my new story.
Snow Vegetable: Yes, your servant takes leave.
Hanno opened the document and began outlining her ideas. "Stargazing," huh? The first thing that came to her mind was interstellar travel. There are many interstellar themes online, and Hanno felt she couldn't write anything profound, so she decided to go with the trend and write a rebirth interstellar entertainment story. After all, she just wanted to accompany her husband to another world to obtain gems for upgrading Porcelain Jar, not for the website's rewards. What was so great about a trip to Hainan Island? Once Elder Brother Li was less busy, she and her husband would go on vacation in the Maldives instead. As for the prize money? Ha ha, the auction at Denglin Pavilion had already brought her two hundred million yuan in revenue; would she care about that little prize money?
Title: Rebirth of the Interstellar Entertainment Queen
Main Characters: Chen Mu Yu, Sun Yuqin
Supporting Characters: Han Yongxia, Li Jinlang...
In the twenty-first century, the eighteen-line star Chen Mu Yu met her demise while filming due to the influence of a top-tier star from the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Xia. She found herself transported two thousand years into the future, into the Interstellar Era. In this time, Earth had entered a stage of interstellar travel, where moving between planets was as convenient as traveling between cities in the twenty-first century. Mechas and space fortresses were no longer myths of science but real entities. People born in this interstellar world received gene evolution injections at birth to enhance their physical capabilities. Every citizen engaged in cultivation, which was divided into two paths: physical prowess and mental strength. Those with strong physical or mental abilities enjoyed extended lifespans, living for hundreds or even thousands of years. However, technological advancements led to the disappearance of many traditional cultures and forms of entertainment throughout history. In this Interstellar Era, although there were still television shows, movies, and singing performances with grand spectacles far beyond modern special effects, the weak storylines left many disinterested in watching.
Chen Mu Yu arrived in this new world with memories from the twenty-first century. Her identity was that of an overlooked daughter from a certain family. To support their business, her parents planned to marry her off to a man who had been divorced three times. Unwilling to accept this fate, Chen Mu Yu left that false life behind. Like many protagonists in interstellar entertainment stories, she began writing scripts, composing songs, acting in television shows and movies, and singing... Eventually, Chen Mu Yu rose to fame and became an idol throughout the entire interstellar realm while gaining a high-quality fiancé named Sun Yuqin, who came from a prestigious background, thus achieving a fulfilling life.
Hanno thought she would reincarnate as Chen Mu Yu while Elder Brother Li would become Sun Yuqin. However, she was too sweet; Porcelain Jar's integrity was the least reliable. This time, Hanno found herself as Han Yongxia, the rival of the female lead—Sun Yuqin's fiancée who was quickly eliminated by Chen Mu Yu. Rubbing her forehead, Hanno realized that at this moment, she had just finished her engagement banquet with Sun Yuqin and there was no turning back. There was nothing she could do but wait for the storyline to conclude when Sun Yuqin would forcefully break off his engagement for the female lead. But—she would have to wait ten years!
Hanno looked at her own arms and sighed; this body was only twelve years old. Even if she expressed a desire to move out on her own, her family would likely refuse. However, living in the Han household meant her freedom would be significantly restricted, leaving her little time to seek out Elder Brother Li. Who would Elder Brother Li reincarnate as? Would he lose his memory like he did in her previous life in the cultivation world?
The answer was yes. But who exactly would Elder Brother Li become? Well, revealing that too early would spoil the fun.
"Are you dissatisfied with our engagement?" A young man approached, caught between adolescence and youth; he was none other than Hanno's newly appointed fiancé, Sun Yuqin. As a male lead destined to be favored by the time-traveling heroine, his appearance was naturally striking—handsome features with defined contours and long legs. Due to his ancestry with Western bloodlines, Sun Yuqin possessed captivating green eyes that were even more vibrant than emeralds.
Hanno lifted her gaze slightly: "Aren't you just as displeased?"
As the legitimate son of the Sun family taking on a cameo role—how about it?
