Dethroned the Crown Princess? Then she became your mother

His worries grew even more intense, and he involuntarily quickened his pace as he rushed out.

The outside world was in good order, and the occasional commotion was quickly quelled by the guards. He witnessed His Majesty personally placing the former Crown Princess gently on the ground. She stood unsteadily, her hand covering the wound, her brow furrowed, clearly trying to endure the pain.

His Majesty also leaned forward with concern, his brows also furrowed, revealing deep worry.

The guards stood around, looking at each other in bewilderment. Two other guards were intercepting Madam Liu and her group, and the atmosphere was tense.

Nanny Liu and the others looked at each other in astonishment, as if they had witnessed an incredible scene - His Majesty and the former Crown Princess Miss Zhang were so close, especially in the dead of night, which was even more abrupt.

Anyone would be shocked by this situation.

The shock in the hearts of Matron Liu and the others was beyond words. They had never expected or even imagined the relationship between His Majesty and Zhang.

Your Majesty is extremely noble, and Zhang's status is also not insignificant. It is really unbelievable that there is such a entanglement between the two.

Who could believe all this if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?

They rubbed their eyes repeatedly, trying to dispel the unreal scene, but their hearts were already in turmoil.

I once thought that Zhang was atoning for her sins to the emperor, but now it seems that everything has changed.

When did things quietly change between Zhang and the Emperor? Could it be that it happened when they were unaware?

The thought of the wild man flashed through their minds, and they widened their eyes, their hearts filled with disbelief and speculation.

"No, this is impossible!" They shook their heads in denial, unwilling to accept this reality, and dared not imagine how to report this to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty the Crown Princess.

All this is too bizarre. If it weren't for the earthquake tonight, perhaps they would never have discovered this hidden secret.

At this moment, their eyes met Eunuch An's, and they were startled. Eunuch An's eyes seemed to reveal some deep meaning.

Eunuch An noticed their gazes, but said nothing. He already had a plan in mind.

He knew that they had witnessed everything that happened tonight, and His Majesty had ordered that Madam Liu and others be replaced with new people to continue serving Miss Zhang.

This is not just a matter of changing people, but also a silent change in the palace.

Madam Liu and her group are still stranded there, which has become a thorny problem that needs to be solved urgently.

This matter must be reported to His Majesty, but the most urgent task at the moment is to temporarily accommodate them to avoid any further complications.

Let’s discuss it again after the storm has subsided.

He quietly approached His Majesty, just as Chunmei came hurriedly from the side, went straight to Zhang Tianai's side, asked about her condition repeatedly, and looked at the emperor anxiously.

He also asked, but received no response from His Majesty. Zhang Tianai and Chunmei were both in the same boat, their anxiety evident in their expressions.

He lowered his voice and asked again with concern, "Is Miss Zhang okay?" His eyes were fixed on Zhang Tianai.

Zhang Tianai forced herself to cheer up and replied softly, "It's okay. Thank you, Eunuch An, for your concern. It's just a minor injury."

As she spoke, she tried to break free from the emperor's support.

Seeing this, he said no more and only ordered: "I will send someone to call the imperial physician immediately. Your Majesty, please be patient."

Although I know that the earth is shaking and the imperial physician may not arrive immediately, I have to try my best.

Upon hearing this, Murong Shuo urged, "What are you waiting for? Go quickly and come back quickly!"

Eunuch An received the order and hurriedly summoned the guards, urging them to go get a doctor regardless of the aftershocks.

After the guards left, Murong Shuo was extremely anxious. Seeing that Miss Zhang's wound was bleeding profusely, he wished he could find a good medicine for her immediately so that she could recover as before.

So, he resolutely decided to take her to find someone to treat her injuries.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Tianai gently pulled the emperor's sleeve, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She knew that he was deeply worried, but also had many considerations that he had not yet expressed.

"I'll take you to see the imperial physician." Murong Shuo said gently and firmly, and was about to get up and leave.

At this time, the ground shaking had gradually subsided, but suddenly a loud bang was heard in the distance, as if a building had collapsed, and flames shot into the sky, shocking everyone.

Murong Shuo looked in that direction, and the guards also cast their eyes over there, as did Eunuch An, Chunmei, Madam Liu, Zhang Tianai and others.

For a moment, everyone's attention was attracted by the sudden change.

"That... over there..." Eunuch An came back to his senses, his voice sharper with nervousness. He waved his whisk, his eyes fixed on the distance, "I don't know why, but there's a fire."

Murong Shuo calmly interrupted him: "What else could it be? It's obviously a fire."

Although he spoke calmly, he was secretly planning a response strategy in his heart.

The atmosphere gradually becomes quiet, and people's minds can't help but calm down.

Eunuch An seemed to have something else to say and wanted to call out but stopped himself.

Chunmei and Zhang Tianai exchanged a subtle look, and they understood each other tacitly.

Zhang Tianai gently tugged at the emperor's sleeve, her gesture subtle and caring, as if she was afraid of disturbing something. "Your Majesty, do you need to go and check it out in person, or do you want to return to the palace to handle matters?"

There was a hint of worry in her voice.

Although Murong Shuo had a thousand concerns in his mind, his eyes involuntarily fell on the woman beside him and he hesitated for a moment.

Zhang Tianai noticed his gaze and wondered to herself, could it be that this former father-in-law still had some reluctance to let her go?

In the end, Murong Shuo decided to send Eunuch An to investigate the situation in the capital first, while he himself would stay here for the time being.

"Eunuch An, quickly send someone to investigate the situation in the capital and act accordingly. I will be there shortly; there is no benefit in going now."

Eunuch An took the order and left, but his eyes could not hide his concern and confusion for the emperor, as if asking, "Your Majesty, are you really not leaving immediately?"

But he quickly adjusted his mood and quickly arranged manpower.

After everything was arranged, Zhang Tianai moved lightly, avoiding everyone's sight, and whispered, "Your Majesty, please don't worry about me. I'm fine. Chunmei is here to take care of me."

Eunuch An seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if something was stuck in his throat.

Seeing this, Murong Shuo scolded him lightly, "Your injury hasn't healed yet, yet you're still talking so much." He then took Zhang Tianai's hand, ordered his men to prepare the horses, and instructed that the affairs in the courtyard be properly handled.

"As you command," Eunuch An replied, and then he too summoned a horse, ready to accompany him. Seeing this, Chunmei also requested to ride with the guards and follow the procession.

Before they reached the capital, they happened to meet the envoy who had been sent to find the imperial physician and the imperial physician he had brought with him on the road.

As the distance closed, Eunuch An rode forward to inquire about the details, then led the imperial physician before the emperor and bowed respectfully, saying, "The imperial physician has arrived. Your Majesty and Miss Zhang, please rest assured."

The imperial physician also saluted and saluted, feeling secretly sad in his heart that the earthquake in the middle of the night had woken him up from his dream and he was urgently summoned here. It was really unpredictable.

In the light of the fire, the group continued to rush towards the capital.

Eunuch An and Chunmei followed closely behind with their men.

Murong Shuo stared at the imperial physician, responded softly, then dismounted, carefully hugged the woman in his arms, and motioned the imperial physician to come forward for a checkup.

Zhang Tianai snuggled up to the emperor all the way and didn't feel tired at all. She nodded slightly to show her agreement.

Wait for the imperial physician to rush over and examine carefully.

Seeing this, Chunmei also hurriedly dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and called out anxiously, "Miss, the Emperor."

Zhang Tianai waved her hand gently, indicating that she didn't need to say more, and Chunmei quietly stepped aside.

The imperial physician tried his best to examine the injury in the flickering firelight, but due to the insufficient light, he could only make out a rough outline.

After a thorough examination, he stroked his beard and pondered, "This lady has sustained minor injuries. They will heal with some medicine. Her bones should be fine. If you still feel uneasy, we can have a more detailed examination."

"Okay." Murong Shuo replied briefly, and then ordered the imperial physician to treat the wounds of the injured first.

Eunuch An hurriedly urged the imperial physician to take action. The imperial physician, in the dim light, took out instruments from the medicine box and began to bandage the wound carefully.

Everyone held their breath and watched until the bandage was completed.

Zhang Tianai felt the pain ease a little and whispered, "Much better."

Murong Shuo and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

However, when Murong Shuo mentioned that they would continue their journey back to the capital, Zhang Tianai was stunned. She wondered if she had heard it wrong. The emperor actually wanted to take her with him?

She quickly lowered her head and suggested softly, "Then I will return to the temple first." Then she called Chunmei to prepare.

"Why are you going back to the temple?" Murong Shuo interrupted her thoughts directly, with an unquestionable firmness in his tone.

Zhang Tianai looked up at Murong Shuo, Chunmei also gave him a puzzled look, even Eunuch An seemed to have something to say, obviously surprised by Zhang Tianai's proposal. After all, the emperor's intention was obvious, he wanted to take her to the capital with him.

"No need to go back to the temple, just come with me!" Murong Shuo said firmly, then took Zhang Tianai's hand and prepared to mount the horse.

Zhang Tianai wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Murong Shuo's firmness and had to obey.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing I need to report." Eunuch An suddenly knelt on the ground, interrupting the moment of peace.
