First Summoner

Before he could finish his words, Zai Yushou was hit by a powerful and terrifying force, and his body was thrown backwards like a kite with a broken string.

boom!

Objects in the temple were smashed to pieces!

Zai Yushou was seriously injured and vomited blood. His body was shaking uncontrollably, and he was about to fall like a candle in the wind.

The people present witnessed this thrilling scene, terrified, and fell to the ground, trembling, not daring to look up. The originally beautiful beauties also turned pale and panicked.

Zai Yushou struggled to support his body, staggered to his knees in front of the purple-robed man, and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy: "Your Majesty, spare my life! I have never lied to you!"

The purple-robed man had a gloomy expression, his eyes flashing with fierce anger, and he said coldly: "No? You just said that you would give all these beauties to me, but why did you hide one of them?"

As soon as these words came out, Zai Yushou's face turned pale instantly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he said in a trembling voice: "Your subordinate... Your subordinate did not know!"

The purple-clothed man sneered, "You know nothing about anything. What's the point of keeping you here? If that's the case, then go and die!"

As he said this, he raised his hand, ready to end Zai Yushou's life.

At this moment, the old man in white shouted anxiously: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

He acted quickly and blocked the purple-clothed man's hand from falling.

The purple-robed man narrowed his dangerous eyes and said in a deep voice: "I limit you to find that beauty within half an hour. If she is injured even a hair, you will not live! Because I will -"

"Break the bones and spread the ashes!"

As soon as his words came out, everyone trembled with shock.

Zai Yushou's expression became even uglier. He was cursing his parents in his heart, wondering which bastard had detained the person!

Let him suffer this misfortune!

He quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty! I will go find someone right away!"

After agreeing, he quickly led his men out of the hall and immediately ordered the people in the mansion to look for the beauty!

One of the guardians said to Zai Yushou, "District Master, the deputy district master was a little strange today. He actually sent people to send all the sedan chairs to his yard. Do you think that the beauty is in his yard?"

Hearing this, Zai Yushou's face became gloomy and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.

"It must be with him!" he said affirmatively.

Otherwise, with Shen Ce's personality, he would not be so abnormal and have all the sedan chairs sent to his yard. It is likely that the beauty is hidden in the sedan chair!

But, why would Your Majesty know this?

What is the background of this beauty? Why does His Majesty care about her so much?

"Go to Shen Ce." Zai Yushou's eyes flickered.

At the same time, the purple-clothed man in the hall looked in a certain direction based on his feeling. His eyes darkened. He originally wanted to see her through this event, but he didn't expect that she was not among so many people.

Either she escaped or she was imprisoned.

"Your Majesty, we are now..." The old man in white was about to say something, but suddenly stopped, because his majesty had disappeared long ago.

The old man in white frowned, thinking to himself that His Majesty's emotions seemed to be aroused many times by this mysterious beauty.

Is it possible...

Is this the one your Majesty likes?

...

On the other side, in the yard.

After Shen Ce told Shen Yan, "I am Shen Ke's husband," Shen Yan was obviously stunned for a few seconds. She felt a little bit unbelievable.

"What did you say?" She wanted to confirm again.

Shen Ce stared at her deeply, "I am Shen Ke's husband. I am the husband chosen by the Grand Master for the eldest princess Shen Ke."

As he spoke, he took another step closer to her.

He took her hand and pressed it on the cinnabar mark on his collarbone.

"Here, it's boiling hot for you."

Shen Yan touched his collarbone and felt it was a little hot. She felt complicated. Although she had recovered her memories within three years of her previous life, this incident did not appear in her memory.

The husband chosen for her by the Grand Master?

Shen Yan calmly withdrew her hand, looked at him and said, "I am indeed Shen Ke, but I can't remember that I had a fiancé. Besides, you and I are not suitable. We can pretend that the engagement does not exist. You will meet someone you like in the future."

These words made Shen Ce's expression change unpredictably.

A fiancé?

It seems that she really forgot.

The Grand Master had chosen more than one candidate for the role of Empress Dowager for her.

Shen Ce stared at her, "Your Highness, have you really decided not to choose me?"

Just when Shen Yan was about to refuse him, there was a noise outside the yard.

Shen Ce's eyes changed slightly, and he said to Shen Yan in a serious tone: "Hide well, I'll go take care of some things first."

After saying this, he left the sedan chair.

When the gauze curtain fell, one could only vaguely see his departing figure through the curtain.

At the same time, Shen Yan vaguely sensed something and his brows furrowed slightly.

He is here too!

Why is he here?

Shen Yan was a little worried about his situation because she didn't know whether he came here to do business or encountered some danger here.

She raised her hand to lift the gauze curtain and was about to leave the sedan chair when two secret guards suddenly appeared on both sides of her sedan chair.

The two secret guards said anxiously.

"Miss, come with us!"

Having said that, he wanted to knock Shen Yan unconscious and take her away.

But Shen Yan dodged.

The two secret guards looked stunned and a little embarrassed.

Shen Yan asked calmly, "What happened?"

The secret guard said anxiously: "The district chief wants to arrest you, the master asked us to take you out of the secret passage first!"

Just as he finished speaking, there seemed to be a lot more aura outside the yard.

The two secret guards' faces changed drastically.

"It's too late! Go!"

They said "excuse me" and forcibly grabbed Shen Yan's wrist and quickly took her to the secret passage hidden in the side room.

Shen Yan followed them away, but she was still worried about someone.

The moment they entered the side room, Zai Yushou and others also rushed into the yard, and in an instant the guards began to search the sedan chairs.

Faintly, Shen Ce's calm voice was heard.

"District Master, I don't have the person you are looking for here."

Zai Yushou sneered, "Really?"

Immediately, he ordered in a deep voice: "Search! Don't leave any place out!"

At the same time, the two secret guards in the side room were shocked. They wanted to drag Shen Yan into the secret passage by force, but she broke free.

The two secret guards' pupils shrank slightly.

"Miss……"

Before he could finish his words, the door to the side room was forced open!

boom!

The two secret guards came to their senses, only to find that Shen Yan had disappeared and the window had shaken a few times.

The guards who were searching stared at the two secret guards with sharp eyes and asked, "What are you doing here?"

The two secret guards were not stupid either. They quickly calmed down and replied, "We are under the order of the deputy district master to keep an eye on everything here."

But the guards obviously couldn't believe this.

"Search!"

The guards immediately rummaged through the drawers and cabinets in the side room, making the place a mess.

Soon, the yard was searched thoroughly, but the hidden beauty was nowhere to be found.

This made Zai Yushou shocked and angry, and he shot a sharp look at Shen Ce, "You really didn't hide the person?! Do you know that if we can't find the person, we will all die! That Lord will not let us go!"

"There are so many beauties in the world, you can choose whatever you want! But this one is the only one that won't work! As long as you hand her over, I can forgive her!"

Zai Yushou was considered to have surrendered to him.

However, Shen Ce still said expressionlessly: "District Master, I don't have any hidden people."

Zai Yushou's face turned pale instantly.

At this time, someone hurried over to report: "District Master, it seems that the beauty has been spotted in the South Pavilion!"

Hearing this, Zai Yushou turned around and left, "Let's go, we must find that beauty!"

A large group of people just retreated like the tide.

The yard suddenly became much quieter.

At this time, the two secret guards who were responsible for escorting Shen Yan quickly came to his side and whispered something in his ear.

Shen Ce's face looked gloomy.

He immediately used the heat of the cinnabar seal to track Shen Yan's location.

At this time, Shen Yan, realizing that the searchers had retreated, came out of the supernatural space.

However, what she didn't expect was——

She had just come out of the supernatural space and hadn't even stood firmly when a warm and tall body pressed against her from behind.

Her waist was tightly hugged by the person behind her, and a familiar scent lingered at her nose.

"Ayan." His voice was low and gentle, with a hint of barely perceptible worry.
