Dethroned the Crown Princess? Then she became your mother

He remained silent and looked nervous.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianai had no choice but to pat the emperor's back again, applying a little more force, and muttered to herself: "If you don't get up, I'm afraid this house will not be able to hold on."

She clearly remembered that in her previous life, there would be a small earthquake around the capital at this time. Although it seemed insignificant in modern times, in ancient times, wooden structures were extremely vulnerable to damage, and casualties were often heavy.

She had considered informing the emperor in advance, but was worried that no one would believe her and she would be suspected.

What made her even more frightened was that several houses in the courtyard where she lived collapsed that night, and items were scattered in her own house, almost causing injuries.

However, because I was seriously ill at the time, many details only became clear afterwards, and the specific date of the earthquake is no longer clear. I only remember that it happened in the past few days, perhaps tomorrow night.

Therefore, she did not bother the emperor too much tonight. Instead, she took off her clothes and went to bed early, habitually choosing to sleep naked, thinking that the emperor would not come tonight.

However, things are unpredictable, and an earthquake actually struck tonight! Just as this thought flashed through her mind, the bed began to shake again, and the amplitude seemed to be even greater. The whole house was shaking, and she could faintly hear the sound of the house shaking outside.

"Your Majesty!" she called anxiously, trying to wake the emperor again.

Murong Shuo finally realized the seriousness of the situation. Even though he was still thinking about the beauty in his arms, he knew that this was not the time to indulge in romantic feelings.

He bit the softness beside his lips fiercely, then raised his head, quickly stood up and put on his coat, while handing her coat to her and urging her, "Put it on quickly!"

"It seems... there was an earthquake, Your Majesty." Zhang Tianai said as he quickly dressed, his face full of worry and anxiety.

Murong Shuo also realized this and wondered why the earthquake was so sudden and without any warning.

Normally, there should be various signs before an earthquake, but now it happens without any warning, catching everyone off guard.

His face was gloomy and his mind was full of thoughts. He turned around and asked her if she was dressed properly.

Zhang Tianai nodded slightly.

At this time, Chunmei's voice suddenly came from outside. She was originally resting in the outer room. She was quiet before and didn't notice anything. Now the earthquake hit, she was obviously frightened.

Soon, Chunmei rushed into the room in a panic, and when she saw her and the emperor, she couldn't help but scream.

"Go out and check quickly, the emperor is here." Zhang Tianai said decisively.

Murong Shuo also responded quickly.

Chunmei looked at them, then immediately turned and ran out, probably wondering: Why is the Emperor here again? With Miss Zhang? When did he come? How come I didn't know?

Zhang Tianai is not very afraid of earthquakes.

After a while, the anxious voice of Eunuch An was heard. He called out to the emperor over and over again, his voice full of urgency and panic. It was obvious that he was very worried about the emperor's safety.

Along with Eunuch An's voice, other noisy sounds were getting closer and clearer.

"It's Eunuch An and the others. Eunuch An is here too." Zhang Tianai said.

Murong Shuo didn't say much, and directly pulled her out: "Come on, let's go out."

"Yeah." Zhang Tianai responded and followed him to the door.

Not far from the door, figures can be seen looking over here. They are Eunuch An and the guards.

But Madam Liu and the others were nowhere to be seen, and they might have escaped. This was a good thing, as it would not cause more trouble.

However, the ground began to shake violently again. The tremors continued to grow stronger and stronger. Zhang Tianai could hardly stand.

Seeing this, Murong Shuo pulled her into his arms and prepared to rush out.

At this moment, Zhang Tianai looked up and found something falling from above his head, heading straight towards them.

It looked like a piece of rubble that had fallen off a beam.

If it is not avoided, it will hit the emperor, her former father-in-law.

Although it was just a piece of rubble, the power it had when it fell from such a great height could not be underestimated.

But at this moment, Zhang Tianai saw an opportunity.

Without thinking too much, she shouted, "Your Majesty, be careful!" Then she rushed over, protected the emperor's arm with her body, and stretched out her arm to block the falling debris for him.

Of course, when she pounced, she deliberately chose the angle to ensure that the injury was neither too serious nor too minor, which was exactly in line with her plan.

She didn't want to get seriously injured for some purpose and be unable to move, which would be a waste of time.

She has been waiting patiently these days.

Suddenly, with a loud "bang", a tile hit her arm, then fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Although she tried her best to avoid it, her arm was still in unbearable pain and blood was oozing out.

She moved her arm calmly and felt that there were no broken bones.

However, the injury cannot be too minor.

She couldn't help but hiss and screamed in pain.

"You, you woman..." Murong Shuo looked at the woman who was standing in front of him, blocking the falling tiles for her, and felt mixed emotions in his heart.

Seeing the pain on her face and her arms covering her hands, he was shocked and his expression became dull. He never thought that this woman would rush to protect him so desperately.

He suddenly picked her up and then angrily said, "What are you doing? It was so dangerous just now, why did you rush over? Aren't you afraid of hurting yourself? Do I need you to save me?"

Zhang Tianai looked at him, her eyes full of pain, and said with difficulty: "I don't want your Majesty to get hurt." After saying this, she was in so much pain that she couldn't say more.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Murong Shuo was about to take a step when something else fell down.

This time, although Zhang Tianai's arm was painful and bleeding, she still wanted to pounce on the emperor again.

But Murong Shuo noticed it first and did not let her block for him, nor did he let her push him away.

He quickly spun her around in his arms and dodged to the side.

The two moved too fast and lost their balance, so they bumped into the wall together and fell to the ground with a bang.

Murong Shuo turned around again and landed first, cushioning the impact of Zhang Tianai.

Zhang Tianai lay on Murong Shuo, clutching her injured hand in pain.

Murong Shuo also felt pain. How could it not hurt after falling like this?

After the pain subsided, he looked at Zhang Tianai, and Zhang Tianai was also looking at him.

Just then, there was a loud noise above the doorway and a beam fell down.

Suddenly, the whole scene surprised everyone and the surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet.

The two looked at each other and looked at each other carefully again.

His heartbeat was like a drum. Was it the joy of surviving the disaster? Or the lingering excitement? Zhang Tianai couldn't put into words the feeling in his heart.

"Your Majesty, are you hurt?" She anxiously checked Murong Shuo's whole body, her tone full of concern.

Murong Shuo was still immersed in the scene where she rushed forward to save him regardless of everything, and his heart was deeply shocked.

"Why did you rush over so desperately?" he asked in a low voice, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.

Being saved by a woman was an unprecedented experience for him that was difficult to describe.

Zhang Tianai looked at him, biting her lower lip tightly, enduring the pain, and said slowly: "Your Majesty must not make any mistakes."

"Is that all? What about you? Is your life not important?" Murong Shuo thought to himself, she not only said it, but also really did it.

Just as the two were lost in thought, Eunuch An and the guards finally came to their senses. They stepped over the collapsed beam and hurried over, surrounding the two of them. They asked questions one after another, their faces full of worry.

At this time, the ground was still shaking slightly, and the sound of the wind seemed to be echoing in my ears.

Murong Shuo quickly pulled Zhang Tianai up, held her tightly in his arms, and walked quickly to a more open area in the yard, where it was relatively safer.

Eunuch An and others followed closely behind.

"Your Majesty, the earthquake seems to have not stopped yet." Eunuch An said worriedly.

Murong Shuo looked around, his eyes revealing determination. At this moment, Zhang Tianai groaned softly because of the pain in her hand.

Murong Shuo noticed it immediately, picked her up again and walked away.

Eunuch An looked at the receding figures of His Majesty and Miss Zhang, his heart filled with admiration.

Miss Zhang actually saved His Majesty! This feat deeply touched him, and he secretly decided to do something.

However, the earthquake has not yet subsided and the specific situation in the capital is still unknown, so everything needs to be done with caution.
