Reason told her that Muchuan was 90% a liar, and it would be absolutely unreasonable for her to believe him.
But her sensibility tortured her again, leaving her with a glimmer of hope.
In desperate days, hope is always the most torturous thing.
If there is no hope, people will be like walking zombies, no matter how miserable the life is, they will remain like that.
But having hope makes people daydream about the future. This is the cruelest thing, making people feel the current suffering more clearly.
Princess Pearl is now in this contradictory and tangled psychological struggle.
After hesitating for a long time, Princess Pearl raised her head and looked at Muchuan.
There was a strange light shining in those ruby-like eyes.
"My benefactor, can I believe you?"
The words are full of uncertainty and confusion.
After all, to Princess Pearl, Muchuan is no different from a stranger.
But to put it bluntly, even her biological uncle Tashi is a stranger to her.
Even if you look around the whole world, there is no one whom Princess Mingzhu can completely trust.
Ever since her family members were killed by her enemies, Princess Mingzhu has become the loneliest person in the world.
However, Muchuan's appearance gave her a glimmer of hope.
Not only was Princess Mingzhu displeased with this hope, she was actually quite scared.
She was afraid that Muchuan was a liar. If this hope was shattered, she would really have no courage to live.
Muchuan showed a smile, and then extended his hand to Princess Pearl.
Muchuan did not answer, but responded with actions.
The etiquette of shaking hands is a Western etiquette, and there is no such emphasis in the East.
Therefore, Princess Mingzhu was naturally quite puzzled by Muchuan's extended hand.
For some reason, Princess Mingzhu also extended her hand out of nowhere, and then put her hand in Muchuan's hand.
The moment their hands touched, Muchuan took Princess Pearl's hand in his backhand.
This bold move, even in relatively open Tubo, was very frivolous.
Princess Pearl's face suddenly turned red. Just when she was about to break away, she felt a sense of tranquility from the touch of her palm.
This is a very strange feeling, which reminds Princess Mingzhu of when she was a child, when her father held her hand, she was as calm as she is now.
Although they are not the same person's hands, they have the same sense of security.
Subconsciously, Princess Pearl not only did not shake off Muchuan, but instead held Muchuan's hand tighter.
Now it was Muchuan's turn to be confused.
He didn't think too much, just wanted to shake hands, so that cooperation would begin.
However, Princess Mingzhu didn't let go of her hold, which made Muchuan quite embarrassed.
Muchuan couldn't even open his mouth to remind him, so he could only remain in a stalemate like this.
As time passed by, Muchuan could even feel the heartbeat of Princess Pearl through the contact of his palms.
Different from the chaos at the beginning, Princess Pearl's heartbeat has become quite peaceful now.
A while passed, and Princess Mingzhu still held Muchuan's hand tightly, with no intention of letting go.
Muchuan couldn't bear it anymore.
He coughed dryly and smiled bitterly: "Princess, are you willing to believe me now?"
"Um"
Princess Pearl nodded, her voice was as low as a mosquito's, her face was still red, and with her red hair and red eyes, she looked like a popular person.
"Then we don't have to keep holding it like this, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Princess Pearl instantly woke up from her dependence.
Only then did she come to her senses, she had actually held a man's hand for such a long time.
You know, before this, she had never been in contact with any man except her father!
Even during the two years she was a slave, she was never touched by a man.
After all, she is a former princess, so slave traders still dare not mess around.
Of course, the main reason is that if someone touches her, she won't be able to sell for a good price.
Therefore, Muchuan's fifty thousand taels spent was not a loss at all.
If I get five hundred taels of this, I'm afraid I can complete the entire Wuxian series.
Princess Pearl was startled and quickly let go of her hand.
Muchuan's fifth girl finally regained her freedom, and Muchuan also shook off a sweat.
Princess Pearl doesn't know what's going on, her hands get sweaty so easily.
Muchuan sniffed secretly and found that Princess Pearl's sweat was actually fragrant. This really fit the term - fragrant sweat.
Princess Mingzhu blushed and said shyly: "My dear friend, you are a good person, I choose to believe you."
Muchuan was confused by being given the good guy card for no apparent reason.
However, Muchuan knows very well that in this era there is no such thing as a good person card, and Princess Pearl is thanking herself from the bottom of her heart.
"That's good, you can follow me from now on, and I'll make sure you enjoy the good life!"
Muchuan promised, patting his chest.
Princess Mingzhu was stunned when she heard such modern words, but she was still amused by Muchuan.
"My benefactor, I will take good care of you from now on."
The two made a vow.
Muchuan will help Princess Mingzhu defeat Songtsan Gampo, thereby restoring the glory of his father's generation.
As for Princess Pearl, she will follow Muchuan until Muchuan helps her restore her country.
Regarding the matter of restoring the country, Muchuan also discussed it in detail with Princess Mingzhu.
Princess Mingzhu was shocked when she learned that Muchuan intended for her to become the Queen of Tubo.
You know, from ancient times to the present, there is no precedent for women to be the masters of the house, no matter which dynasty or generation.
"My benefactor, please stop joking. As a woman, how can I be a Zampu?"
Princess Pearl shook her head like a rattle, obviously not agreeing with Muchuan's statement.
Muchuan interrupted Princess Mingzhu and asked seriously: "In that case, what do you think of the princess?
Even if I help you regain your country, if you don’t act like a Zanpu, could it be possible that you are taking advantage of others?”
Hearing this, Princess Pearl also realized the seriousness of the problem.
Previously, she had thought about marrying another country. In this way, the child she would give birth to would naturally be the future Lord of Tubo.
But now that he is cooperating with Muchuan, there is no need for a marriage.
Then the question becomes, who will be the master after the restoration of the country?
Thinking of this, Princess Pearl couldn't help but look at Muchuan, her face suddenly turned red again.
Muchuan was well-informed and had seen countless women, so he instantly understood Princess Pearl's thoughts.
He didn't wait for Princess Mingzhu to say something embarrassing, and spoke first: "Princess, I'll think about this later, don't be in a hurry now."
"Um"
Princess Mingzhu nodded, looking like a little daughter-in-law.
Seeing this, Muchuan felt bitter in his heart.
It’s really not me who is Versailles, it’s just my fate as a woman. Why has it become so perverted?
