Once upon a time there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess. But she must be a real princess. So he traveled all over the world looking for such a princess. But no matter where he goes, there will always be some obstacles. There are many princesses, but he can't tell whether they are real princesses. They always have problems. As a result, he had to go home and was very unhappy because he was so eager to get a real princess.

One night, there was a terrible storm. The sky is blacked out, thundering and raining heavily. This is really scary! At this moment, someone knocked at the door and the old king answered it.

Standing outside the city gate is a beautiful princess. But, my God! How ugly she looks after the wind and rain! Water ran down her hair and clothes, into the tip of her shoes and out of her heels. She said she was a real princess.

"Yes, we can check it right away." The old queen thought about it, but said nothing. She went into the bedroom, took all the bedding and put a pea on the bed. So she took out twenty mattresses and pressed them on Doudou. Then, she put twenty duvets on these cushions.

The princess sleeps on these things at night.

Everyone asked her how she slept last night in the morning.

"Oh, it's hard!" The princess said, "I almost didn't sleep a wink all night!" " Who knows what's in my bed? Something very hard stung me and made me blue all over. This is really scary! "

Now everyone can see that she is a real princess, because she can still feel a pea under these twenty mattresses and twenty duvets. No one can have such delicate skin except a real princess.

So the prince chose her as his wife, because now he knows that he has got a real princess. This pea was therefore sent to the museum. If no one took it away, people can still see it there now.

Please note that this is a true story.

The emperor's new clothes

Many years ago, there was an emperor who liked wearing beautiful new clothes very much. In order to dress beautifully, he spent all his money on clothes. He doesn't care about his army at all, and he doesn't like going to the theater. He doesn't like going to the park by carriage unless it is to show off his new clothes. He changes into a new suit every hour every day. When people mention the emperor, they always say, "The emperor is in the conference room." But when people mention him, they always say, "The emperor is in the dressing room."

In the big city where he lives, life is easy and pleasant. Many foreigners come every day. One day, two swindlers came. They say they are weavers. They say they can weave the most beautiful cloth that no one can imagine. The color and pattern of this cloth are not only very beautiful, but also the clothes sewn with it have a strange function, that is, anyone who is incompetent or stupid can't see the clothes.

"That's my favorite skirt!" The emperor thought. "I wear such clothes, you can see who is incompetent in my kingdom; I can tell who is smart and who is stupid. Yes, I want them to weave such cloth at once! " He gave two swindlers a lot of cash and told them to start working at once.

They took out two looms and pretended to be working, but there was nothing on the looms. One by one, they asked the emperor to send them some of the best raw silk and gold. They put all these things in their pockets, but pretended to be busy late at night on those two empty looms.

"I wonder how they are woven," thought the emperor. However, he immediately remembered that stupid people or incompetent people could not see the cloth. He did feel a little uncomfortable. He believes that he has nothing to fear. Even so, he still thinks it is more appropriate to send someone to have a look first. The whole city has heard that this kind of fabric has a strange power, so everyone wants to take this opportunity to test it and see how stupid their neighbors are.

"I will send an honest old minister to visit the weavers," thought the emperor. "Only he can see what this cloth looks like, because he has a lot of brains and no one can do it better than him."

So the kind old minister went to the workplace of two swindlers. They are busy working on the empty loom.

"What is this?" The old minister thought, eyes as big as bowls.

"I don't see anything!" But he was afraid to say it.

Two swindlers begged him to come closer and asked him if the pattern and color of the cloth looked good. They pointed to two empty looms.

The poor old minister's eyes are getting bigger and bigger, but he still can't see anything, because there is really nothing to see.

"My God!" He thought. "Am I a stupid person? I never doubted myself. I must never let anyone know about it. Am I incompetent? -no; I must never let anyone know that I can't see that cloth. "

"Hey, don't you mind?" A weaver who is weaving said.

"Ah, beautiful! Wonderful! " The old minister said. He looked at it carefully with his glasses on. "What a beautiful pattern! What a beautiful color! Yes, I will report to the emperor that I am very satisfied with this cloth. "

"Well, we are glad to hear your words," said the two weavers together. They described these rare colors and patterns and added some nouns. The old minister listened attentively so that he could recite it when he went back to see the emperor. In fact, that's what he did.

The two swindlers asked for a lot of money, more silk and gold, which they said were used for weaving. They put all these things in their pockets, not even a thread on the loom. But they still continue to work on an empty shelf.

Soon after, the emperor sent an honest official to see if the cloth could be woven soon. His luck is not better than that of the first minister: he looked and looked, but there was nothing on the two empty looms, and he could see nothing.

"Do you think this cloth looks good?" Two swindlers asked. They pointed to some beautiful patterns and made some explanations. In fact, there is no pattern.

"I'm not stupid!" The official thought, "This is probably because I don't deserve such a good office now." This is really funny, but I must not let anyone see it! "So he boasted about the cloth he didn't see at all and told them that he liked these beautiful colors and clever patterns." Yes, it's beautiful, "he said to the emperor.

Everyone in the city is talking about this beautiful dress.

While the cloth was still being woven, the emperor wanted to see it with his own eyes. He selected a specially designated entourage-including two honest ministers who had already visited them. In this way, he went to the place where the two cunning swindlers lived. These two guys are knitting with all their might, but they can't see a thread. "Don't you think it's beautiful?" Two honest officials said. "Your majesty, look, what a beautiful pattern! What a beautiful color! " They pointed to the empty loom because they thought others would see the cloth.

"What is this?" The emperor thought, "I don't see anything! This is ridiculous! Am I a stupid person? Don't I deserve to be emperor? This is really the most terrible thing I have never encountered. "

"Oh, it's beautiful!" The emperor said, "I am extremely satisfied!" " "

So he nodded with satisfaction. He pretended to look at the loom very carefully because he didn't want to say that he didn't see anything. All the attendants who came with him also looked at it carefully, but they didn't see anything. However, they also did as the emperor said, "Oh, how beautiful!" " They suggested that the emperor make clothes out of this novel and beautiful cloth and put on his own clothes to attend the upcoming parade. "How beautiful! How exquisite! Great! " Everyone agrees with this voice. Everyone has unspeakable happiness. The emperor gave each liar a knighthood and a medal that could be hung on the button hole; They are also called "royal hired weavers"

The parade will be held the next morning. The night before, two swindlers stayed up all night and lit 16 candles. You can see that they are working late to finish the emperor's new clothes. They pretended to take the cloth off the loom. They cut in the air with two big scissors for a while, and sewed with needles for a while without threading. Finally, they said in unison, "Look! The new clothes are sewn! "

The emperor himself arrived with a group of the noblest knights. Each of the two swindlers raised a hand as if holding something. They said, "Look, these are pants and this is a robe! This is a coat! " Wait a minute. "This dress is as soft as a spider's web: people who wear it will feel as if they have nothing on them-that's the beauty of this dress."

"Exactly," all the knights said. But they didn't see anything, because in fact there was nothing.

"Please take off your clothes now," said the two swindlers. "We want to put on new clothes for your majesty in front of this big mirror.

The emperor took off all his clothes. Two swindlers pretended to give him new clothes that had just been sewn one by one. They worked on his waistline for a while, as if they were tying something: this is his back. The emperor turned around in front of the mirror and twisted his waist.

"Oh, my god, how well this dress fits! How beautiful the style is cut! " Everyone said. "What a beautiful pattern! What a beautiful color! This is really an expensive suit! "

"Everyone has prepared the canopy outside. As soon as your majesty goes out, you can lift it and March!" The ceremony officer said.

"Yes, I'm dressed," said the emperor. "Does this dress suit me?" So he turned around in front of the mirror again, because he wanted everyone to see that he was seriously admiring his beautiful clothes. Ministers who want to take aftershave are all touching the ground, as if they are really taking aftershave. They started walking with air in their hands-they didn't dare to be seen. They really didn't see anything.

Then, the emperor marched under the gorgeous canopy. People standing in the street and in the window said, "dear, the emperor's new clothes are really beautiful!" How nice the back hem under his coat is! How well the clothes fit! " No one wants people to know that they can't see anything, because it will expose their incompetence or stupidity. All the clothes of the emperor have never received such universal praise.

"But he's wearing nothing!" A child finally cried.

"Oh, my God, listen to this naive voice!" Dad said. So everyone whispered what the child said.

"He's wearing nothing! A child said he was naked! "

"He really has nothing on!" Finally, everyone said. The emperor trembled a little because he seemed to think that what people said was right. But he thought to himself, "I must finish this parade." Therefore, he assumed a more arrogant appearance, and his ministers followed him, holding a position that did not exist.

Slaebet is a long piece of cloth dragged behind the dress; That's the dress of the aristocrats in feudal Europe.

I hope these are helpful to you!
