Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 566 - 565: I Predict You’re Carrying a Princess

"Is this true? Mother has been pregnant for only three months, yet you can already determine the gender of the fetus?" Li Lizhi was extrely curious, even Elder Sun did not dare to assert the gender prediction for Empress Zhangsun!

"It’s true!" Lin Wanwan said, "Not all pregnancy pulses can indicate gender, but the pulse of Her Majesty the Empress is very clear, which is why I’m confident in my prediction. If I’m wrong, feel free to hold accountable in the future."

After all, you all don’t understand dicine, so my word is final, and I am just that magically insightful.

Lin Wanwan never considered becoming a fortune teller in the Great Tang, otherwise, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng wouldn’t stand a chance.

Empress Zhangsun, hearing Lin Wanwan’s certainty, was both surprised and delighted.

She indeed very much wanted another daughter, but another son wasn’t necessary. Having too many sons in the royal family might not be a good thing, leading to endless power struggles, but having many soft and cute daughters would only be a blessing.

With Lin Wanwan’s diversion of the topic, Empress Zhangsun didn’t continue discussing her engagent, much to Lin Wanwan’s relief.

Then Lin Wanwan started educating Empress Zhangsun on pregnancy knowledge, from how music prenatal education could make children smarter, using skin oil to prevent stretch marks, to what sleeping positions were best for pregnant won and the fetus. The historically renowned empress was in awe.

These optional pregnancy tips were not sothing a serious Divine Doctor would delve into. Only modern businessn, who rack their brains to make money from won, would study such things.

Lin Wanwan shared knowledge from the future with Empress Zhangsun, who found these fresh ideas naturally fascinating.

By the ti Lin Wanwan finished her spiel, the sun had already set, and only then did Empress Zhangsun and Princess Changle let Lin Wanwan leave the palace, rewarding her with a round fan embroidered by the top embroideress from the Imperial Palace!

As soon as Lin Wanwan received it in her hand, she felt like Yongtang’s treasure had appeared again.

It was worth it! Whose job could have such a reward rate as hers?

Stepping out of the Imperial Palace at that mont, Lin Wanwan felt that the sky was bluer, the trees greener, and the air fresher.

This palace truly wasn’t a good place, one trip in there burned millions of Lin Wanwan’s brain cells.

It wasn’t easy to distract Empress Zhangsun from being too interested in her marriage!

Luckily, the gifts from Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun soothed her frightened heart, so this trip was not in vain.

Hong Yan and Kun Lun were waiting outside all along, and seeing Lin Wanwan co out with a group of people, they quickly went up to her.

"Let’s go, back ho!" Lin Wanwan commanded briefly, "The few of you, just follow behind the carriage."

As usual, Hong Yan accompanied Lin Wanwan in the carriage. She wasn’t curious about the priceless gifts Lin Wanwan was holding. Naturally, they were palace rewards, but who were all these people following behind?

Lin Wanwan noticed Hong Yan’s curiosity and said, "These are slaves granted by His Majesty."

The group of slaves all ca from the Yeting Palace, which mostly housed the descendants of courtiers in disgrace or captive royals. So should be literate.

Once back ho, Lin Wanwan would inquire about them properly.

For now, they had to hurry, when night falls in Chang’an City, the drum sounds, and dedicated people announce warnings, ordering people to either leave the city or return ho.

The drums sound several tis, and on the last sound, all 108 village gates in Chang’an would close.

Anyone still wandering the streets would receive a beating from the Marquis—beatings were the lightest, using knives and arrows was not impossible.

Lin Wanwan and her group mixed into the bustling traffic heading towards Jinchang Square, not daring to delay a mont.

The people of the Pang Family had been eagerly anticipating them. The gatekeeper of the Pang Family had been standing under the corridor watching the road, sending the latest updates to the courtyard from ti to ti.

Today Lin Wanwan entered the palace to see the emperor. Although it’s a Lin Family affair, now that Lin Wanwan was living with the Pang Family, it was almost as if it were a Pang Family matter too.

Besides the Pang Family, two others were also anxiously waiting, Xiao Yixun and little Qingyu.

The difference was that Xiao Yixun was internally anxious but appeared calm, while little Qingyu was outwardly visibly worried.

Finally, under everyone’s eager gaze, Lin Wanwan’s carriage arrived fashionably late.

After entering the Pang Family, dinner was served, and Lin Wanwan briefly talked about her audience with the emperor, satisfying the Pang Family’s curiosity.

After dinner, a difficult problem presented itself.

The already full courtyard now had no space to accommodate the ten palace-granted slaves!

Even the communal beds were packed!

In the end, the lady in charge of the Pang Family’s main house, Madam Xu, decided to clear out the woodshed beside the stables and let the ten female slaves sleep on the ground there.

Xiao Yixun finally couldn’t hold back any longer and said to Lin Wanwan, "Co to live in my courtyard."

The Xiao Family’s estate wasn’t this cramped. As the legitimate daughter, she had her courtyard, more than enough to host her and Lin Wanwan’s people comfortably.

Lin Wanwan also felt it was ti to move. The Pang Family was indeed too crowded and very inconvenient, so she agreed with Xiao Yixun’s suggestion.

Originally, since Xiao Yixun had returned to Chang’an, Lin Wanwan should have properly sent the runaway girl back ho.

Additionally, they could also et Xiao Yixun’s grandfather, the Hongwen Academy Scholar Xiao Deyan, and his entire family.

Being part of the Lanling Xiao’s Imperial Uncle’s House, every one of them was historically notable figures. If they could acquire any of their calligraphy works, it would be a real treasure!

So Lin Wanwan found Xiao Yixun’s invitation to be very appealing.

Having decided on the next steps, Lin Wanwan lit a lantern, sat in a pavilion, and began to question the female slaves about their origins.

The background of palace slaves could be significant. For example, the famous Inner Minister Shangguan Wan’er was a slave descended from a disgraced official and sent to the Imperial Court.

The ten female slaves ranged in age: the youngest looked to be about eleven or twelve, and the oldest seed to be about twenty-four or twenty-five. Three had relatively delicate appearances, while the rest were average-looking.

"From today on, you are slaves of the Lin Family. Those who are descendants of disgraced officials, stand in a line on the left; those given as slaves by foreign envoys, stand on the right; and those punished into slavery, stand in the middle."

Upon Lin Wanwan’s words, the ten female slaves glanced at each other and quickly grouped themselves according to their statuses.

The proportion of disgraced officials’ descendants was quite high, numbering five. All three of the delicately featured ones were among them, while three were foreign envoy gifts, and two were punished slaves.

Lin Wanwan first asked the five disgraced officials’ descendants which families they were born into and what cris they had committed.

Astonishingly, the three delicately featured young won were all forr palace maids of the Liang Dynasty Palace. After King Liang Xiao Xi of Lanling’s Xiao House surrendered to Li Tang, they were absorbed into the Li Tang Harem.
