Chapter 232, Suspicious Maid
Seeing the maid trying to escape through the arch, Ji Linfeng jumped into the air. He jumped over the wall and stopped the maid who was in a panic.

"Is it you who plays the flute?" Ji Linfeng pressed forward step by step, his unkind eyes sweeping back and forth between the maid's face and the white rabbit in her arms.

"Say." Ji Linfeng's tone increased when he saw that the maid didn't speak.

The maid was so frightened that she turned white and kept retreating. "No, it's not the flute played by the slave."

This maid is Xiao Lin, the maid arranged by Gu Shi'an.

Ji Linfeng's face was full of displeasure. "Not you? Do you think this young master is easy to deceive?" The killing intent in Ji Linfeng's eyes almost engulfed Xiao Lin.

The latter was so frightened that his body was shaking like chaff, and he knelt on the ground with a thud under Ji Linfeng's murderous eyes. "Second Master Ji Mingjian, the flute is really not played by a slave." Xiao Lin was so frightened that he almost cried.

Ji Linfeng frowned fiercely: "It's not you, why are you sneaking around in Merlin?" If it's not this person, then his behavior is also very suspicious. What does it mean to hold a rabbit in your hand?
How dare Xiao Lin say it? If she did, she wouldn't be able to escape the involvement.

"Slave, this slave is just here to find the rabbit." Xiao Lin said tremblingly.

Ji Linfeng still didn't believe it and looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of it. "Looking for a rabbit? Why are you looking for a rabbit? Huh? If you don't explain clearly today, do you think you can still walk out of Chunli Pavilion alive?"

Ji Linfeng's words were full of threats. Xiao Lin winced. "Slave, slave, I really just came to find the rabbit."

Ji Linfeng noticed the badge on Xiao Lin's waist at this time, and his eyebrows tightened a little more. "You're a family man."

Xiao Lin was frightened, and it was too late for her to hide her belt. This move only aggravated Ji Linfeng's doubts.

With a "pop", he shook his outer robe, and the previously unhandled king snake was shaken out by him. It fell at Xiaolin's feet.

"Ah" Xiao Lin was so frightened that he screamed repeatedly.

But he saw Ji Linfeng's expression was extremely cold. "If you are not honest, I will put this snake on you. Are you going to tell me?"

Xiao Lin was so frightened that she almost fainted, but she was afraid that after fainting, Ji Linfeng would mercilessly place the snake on her.

She was so scared that she didn't dare to faint, so she had to grit her teeth and force herself to wake up.

"Slave, slave. I'm the maid of the Gu family. I came to Merlin because I wanted to dig a trap." Xiao Lin finally said.

"Who are you digging a trap for?" Ji Linfeng stared at Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin thought that Ji Linfeng was the second son of the Ji family, and that everyone in the Ji family regarded Miss Ji as their treasure. If he said in front of him that he dug it for Miss Ji, she would probably be close to death.

Therefore, we can only choose others.

At this time, Xiao Lin happened to see Shen Ruxue and two sisters walking towards this side. Xiao Lin was quick to think and immediately said: "Yes, it's for Miss Shen."

"Shen Ruxue?"

"Yes, yes, it's for Shen Ruxue."

Ji Linfeng frowned, did Shen Ruxue have a grudge against Gu Shi'an?
"What kind of trap? Take me to see it." Ji Linfeng quickly used his sword to cut Wang Jinshe in two before he could swim away. Kick into the lake to feed the fish.

Seeing that the snake was dead, Xiao Lin felt relieved.

Xiao Lin led the way and soon arrived at the place where she dug the trap. Xiao Lin opened up a pile of leaves to reveal a pit inside which only one foot could fall into. There are densely packed iron nails in the pit.

Seeing this, Ji Linfeng's expression suddenly changed. If he really steps on it, his whole foot will be destroyed, right? "You, you are so cruel? Who in the Gu family made you behave like this?" According to Ji Linfeng's understanding, Shen Ruxue is not only a warm-hearted girl, but also a very righteous person.

What is the difference between such behavior and that of a villain?
I really didn't expect such vicious people to exist in the Gu family.

Xiao Lin knew that he couldn't testify against Gu Shi'an, so he cried: "It's a slave. It's a slave who took it upon herself to vent her anger on the young lady's behalf. That day, the girl from the Shen family didn't give the young lady face, and accused her in public of her wrong words and deeds. The slave couldn't get enough of it, so... "

"Oh, is this really true? Then I will go and ask your lady whether she instigated it or you made your own decision."

"No, no, please believe me, sir. It's really my own decision." Xiao Lin cried and begged.

How could Ji Linfeng believe her words? He was about to take her away with him. After taking two steps, he remembered that if someone stepped on it, he would get into trouble. Then he turned back and filled the hole.

Without paying attention, Xiao Lin ran away.

Xiao Lin wanted to run to Gu Shi'an and make a confession in advance. Ji Linfeng sneered inwardly. "Hey, my little sister has so many mantras on her body, do you think you can run away?"

When Xiao Lin felt that Ji Linfeng was not chasing him, he felt happy and quickly quickened his pace. Gu Shi'an was soon found chatting with a group of noble ladies in the front yard.

Gu Shi'an knew that the plan failed when he saw Xiao Lin's panic.

"Miss, miss, come here." Xiao Lin knew that he couldn't say this in front of other people, so he called Gu Shi'an aside.

"Forget it if you fail, you can find another opportunity." Gu Shi'an looked calm.

Xiao Lin waved his hands hurriedly. "No, miss, this slave was captured by Mr. Ji Er. He used a snake to force the slave to tell the truth."

"Did you say that?" Gu Shi'an's expression changed, and murderous intent flashed through his eyes, which scared Xiao Lin.

"No, no, the slave came here to tell the young lady. What the slave said was that the trap was prepared for Shen Ruxue. She also said that the slave made her own decision." Xiao Lin was so frightened that it was rare for him to be able to speak out completely.

Gu Shi'an was not stupid, and he instantly understood that Xiao Lin was pointing the finger at Shen Ruxue. It is better to offend the Shen family than to offend the Ji family.

"I know, you did a good job!" Gu Shi'an had already seen Ji Linfeng looking towards her.

Her face was expressionless, but Ji Linfeng made a gesture of wiping his neck towards Gu Shi'an. Her heart skipped a beat for no reason.

She suddenly had the feeling that Ji Linfeng knew everything.

No, we must not admit that this matter was prepared for Ji Hua. She wanted to insist on Shen Ruxue. It just so happened that Shen Ruxue had some verbal grudges with her before.

Ji Linfeng came back, and Ji Hua immediately pounced on him. "Have you dealt with it, second brother?"

[The snake is not poisonous, but very ferocious. It eats rats and baby birds. However, what I am most afraid of is snakes. 】

Ji Linfeng held Ji Hua's hand and comforted him silently. He also told her what he saw in Merlin.

"It's taken care of, but second brother, I just found a suspicious maid on the way to Merlin."

"Ah, suspicious maid?" Jihua suddenly became interested. Ji Yushu and Su Yuyue next to him also looked at him, waiting for him to elaborate.

[Isn’t she the flute player? Just now Mr. Yi has been praising the beauty of the flute sound. Little did he know that the sound of the flute almost killed him. 】

[The sound of the flute comes and goes strangely. It must have been planned in advance. 】
