It was getting dark.

On the contrary, the star stone in the courtyard looked much brighter and more dazzling in the dim illusion.

After the poison was settled, Zhu Yingjing and Tang Huanyan didn't move the chopsticks, but waited expectantly for Tang Chacha to take out the jewelry, and then eat these things with the poison.

One minute......

Three-minute ......

Five minutes......

As time passed, the three of them couldn't sit still.

Zhu Ying twisted her body, as if there were needles on the stool under her, looking left and right.

"Sister, the medicine has been ordered, let's go, you see...... It's so late in the day. ”

Zhu Yingjing lightly tidied up her sleeves and glanced towards the room: "What's the hurry, there are so many of us, are you still afraid that it will be dark?" ”

"No, I always think this little courtyard is weird." Zhu Ying said nervously, "At the banquet for viewing paintings, you also saw that Tang Chacha is not without any ability, let's not plant it!" ”

Zhu Ying is worried, now that people have been sitting here, if a group of officers and soldiers pour in, it will be a combination of stolen goods.

No matter how many mouths you have, you can't tell it.

When Zhu Yingjing wanted to say something, Tang Huanyan next to her suddenly frowned, stretched her neck, and pricked up her ears.

"What do you do?" Zhu Yingjing asked.

"Shh

Tang Huanyan put up his finger in front of his mouth, "Listen! ”

"What's wrong?"

"Just now I said I wanted to see the jewelry that my mother gave her, but Tang just didn't move at all after entering, even if she couldn't find where to put it, the maid should have found it after she went in......"

Tang Huanyan muttered, his face a little ugly.

"This can't be a trap set by Tang Chacha, right?!"

Tang Huanyan was in Zhu Yingjing's eyes, it was like an elegant and indifferent existence, and his IQ was always online.

But now, as soon as she opened her mouth like this, Zhu Yingjing really felt very strange.

The star stone next to it, suddenly, went out.

Zhu Ying was startled and screamed.

The star stone is not a candle, and a candle may only be lit one. Night, but a star stone can last for a month at most.

"Why...... Extinguished? Zhu Ying's voice trembled a little.

A pair of eyes looked into the darkness, and her mood was even more restless, she didn't sit alone, but stood up and walked two steps to sit with Zhu Yingjing, "Sister, I'm really a little scared!" ”

"What are you afraid of, we are here as guests, the whole Hou Mansion knows, if something happens to us, how can the people of the Hou Mansion give us an explanation for the Zhu family!!"

When she said this, Zhu Yingjing looked at Tang Huanyan and said,

This is putting pressure on her, using the fame of the Zhu family to suppress the Hou Mansion, since Tang Huanyan is a person from the Hou Mansion, he doesn't want to put himself in danger, the only way is to protect himself and Zhu Ying's safety.

Zhu Yingjing was a little unhappy in her heart, but her face was silent.

"Don't worry, if it's really dangerous, my mother can't ignore me!"

While speaking, she looked at the maid behind Zhu Yingjing, "You call a maid to go in and urge her, and see what the hell she is doing!" ”

Zhu Yingjing's four maid names are very ordinary, Chunlan, Xia He, Qiu Ju, and Dong Xue.

It's very easy to remember.

"Chunlan, Xia He, you guys together, _-go! Glance! Zhu Yingjing commanded.

"Yes."

After the two answered, they walked directly to the house.

Chunlan walked in front, and Xia He walked behind.

After the two of them left the range of the eldest lady, their walking speed slowed down.

It's not because I'm lazy, but because in addition to the light on the wine table, after walking a distance, I suddenly feel that it is a lot darker in front of me, and even the ground is not clear.
