Chapter 124 Sleepless Night

Chapter 124 Can’t sleep at night

Yan Jingtian was stunned for a moment, but then he put the Night Pearl away.

"It seems that you are still the same as before. You have never been very interested in this kind of thing." After saying that, he put the night pearl into his arms, "Well, then you should keep it here with me."

Yan Jingtian knew Pei Mo's character very well. Since he didn't want it, he didn't force it.

But at this moment, Murong Qing frowned deeply and his mind was spinning rapidly.

"Since he acted in his last life and was convicted today because of Ye Mingzhu, what if this Ye Mingzhu is not on his body?" Murong Qing thought quickly.

"If Pei Mo keeps this night pearl, will things take a new direction, so Yan Jingtian doesn't have to die?"

Seeing the deep friendship between Yan Jingtian and Pei Mo, Murong Qing also wanted to save him.

At the moment, it seems that letting Pei Mo accept this night pearl is a good choice.

Murong Qing almost couldn't help but speak, but another thought flashed through her mind, which scared her so much that she shut her mouth tightly.

"But if this night pearl is accepted by Pei Mo, and if the crime of adultery falls on Pei Mo, wouldn't he be the one who will die?"

Murong Qing was shocked by this idea, and her hands and feet became cold.

She quickly shook her head vigorously, her chest heaving violently, trying to drive such terrible thoughts out of her mind.

If the person who died was Pei Mo, she would probably not be able to accept it even more.

"No, no, no, Pei Mo must not accept this Ye Mingzhu." Murong Qing had some concerns in her heart, but when she saw that Pei Mo did not accept Ye Mingzhu, she felt slightly relieved.

After a long separation, they had countless things to say. Pei Mo and Yan Jingtian talked for a long time in the room until the sun set, and Yan Jingtian reluctantly got up to say goodbye.

But that night, Murong Qing tossed and turned in bed because she was hiding something on her mind, suffering from insomnia.

"What should I do? That Ye Mingzhu is the culprit. Whoever you put it on will be unlucky. If I don't come up with a solution, Yan Jingtian will be the unlucky one."

Or else steal that thing?

This seems to be a feasible approach.

But then I thought about it, Yan Jingtian must have regarded such a precious treasure as a treasure now and hid it tightly. It would be impossible to steal it now.

After much deliberation, this plan was derailed in Murong Qing's mind.

"What if he threw away the night pearl voluntarily?"

No matter whose hands it falls into, as long as it is not presented to the emperor's concubine, it should not be punishable by beheading.

But would Yan Jingzhen really throw away the night pearl voluntarily?

"No, no, this idea is really stupid. Not to mention Yan Jingtian, even Pei Mo would not throw away such a precious treasure easily. That is a whole night pearl. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a city, and it is still in the world.

Who wouldn’t want to have something rare?”

Lying on the bed tossing and turning, Murong Qing was obsessed with this incident and couldn't sleep the whole night.

Due to too much thinking, Murong Qing had a fever early the next morning.

"The general is not well. Madam stayed up all night last night and had a fever this morning."

Pei Mo had just gotten up early in the morning, put on his court clothes, and was about to go to the palace to attend court, when he suddenly heard Ping'er coming to report in a hurry.

"How could this happen?" He said and rushed to Murong Qing's room.

Murong Qing was lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt, but his spirit was in a trance.

Pei Mo reached out his hand and gently touched her forehead. It was indeed very hot, so he immediately pulled back, his face a little heavy.

"Go and call the doctor quickly."

Ping'er hurriedly left the room and left the general's mansion.

"You were fine last night, why did you have such a severe fever this morning?" Pei Mo sat beside Murong Qing's bed, frowning.

At this moment, a servant came over and reminded Pei Mo: "General, it's time to go to court, otherwise it will be late."

But Pei Mo raised his hand and said calmly: "Madam is sick, I will not go to court today. I asked Liu Shen to explain the situation to the emperor, and said that I am asking for leave today."

"Yes, General."

The servants retreated and told Liu Shen the situation, and Liu Shen rode towards the palace.

After a while, the doctor was brought in by Ping'er.

"Doctor, my wife has a high fever. Come and have a look." Pei Mo saw the doctor coming in and quickly gave up his seat.

"General, please rest assured, I will try my best to cure my wife's illness."

The doctor put the medicine box on the table, bowed respectfully to Pei Mo, then sat by the bed and took Murong Qing's pulse.

Pei Mo and the others withdrew and returned to their study to sit, but they felt very irritable no matter what, and walked around in the study unconsciously.

When Yan Jingtian went out in the morning, he happened to meet the doctor Ping'er. He inquired about Murong Qing and found out that she was seriously ill, so he bought a lot of good medicinal materials and delicious food, and carried a big bag to the general's mansion.

Leave early to visit.

"My sister-in-law was fine when I saw her yesterday. Why did she have a high fever this morning? Maybe there is something wrong with her body?" Seeing Pei Mo's worried expression, Yan Jingtian also looked a little worried.

Pei Mo sighed softly and talked about Murong Qing's situation, and the two gradually started chatting.

While chatting, Pei Mo remembered the information Murong Qing told him yesterday, and told Yan Jingtian about it.

"I have always kept this matter a secret, but I don't know why it suddenly leaked out. I'm worried that someone was causing trouble and deliberately wanted to release the news."

When Yan Jingtian heard this, his expression became serious, his brows tightened, and he looked thoughtful.

"From this point of view, this matter is not groundless. It seems that someone wants to attack you." Both of them felt that this matter was not simple.

After thinking for a moment, Yan Jingtian slapped the table: "I will send someone to investigate this matter immediately."

At this moment, the doctor suddenly sent someone to report that Murong Qing had fallen into a coma and was talking nonsense.

When Pei Mo heard this, he stood up as if on conditioned reflex, raised his feet and hurried towards Murong Qing's house.

"General, come and listen to what the lady is saying?"

Ping'er had been listening to Murong Qing's mouth for a long time, but still couldn't understand what she said.

When he turned around and saw Pei Mo, he quickly stood up and made way for his seat, and Pei Mo sat down next to him.

"Destroy that night pearl... destroy it..."

Murong Qing said a few more intermittent words in a daze, and fell into coma again.

Pei Mo returned to the study, and Yan Jingtian was busy asking about the situation.

"How is your sister-in-law?"

Pei Mo smiled helplessly and told him the situation: "She actually said that she wanted you to destroy the Night Pearl. What a nonsense."

"Haha, my sister-in-law is so funny. She was probably joking," Yan Jingtian also found it funny. "But it's not that easy for her to destroy it. I will definitely take better care of it!"
