Although Kong Zhendong knew that the Swedish royal family was very close to the people and was not kept in the deep palace like the ancient Chinese royal family, he was not interested in accompanying the princess to dinner, but felt that the etiquette was cumbersome and restrained.

When the Wolverines arrive at the palace, they are routinely accompanied by a royal housekeeper and a press reporter.

At 11 a.m., the King and Queen of Sweden will meet them surrounded by journalists.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, distant relatives and friends from all walks of life invited by the royal family arrived, and the Copa del Rey officially began.

Under the leadership of the royal housekeeper, Kong Zhendong and others visited the Swedish royal palace.

Aside from a few Scandinavian-style main buildings, the Swedish palace is more like a sprawling holiday estate.

The Swedish royal family is very sportsmanlike, and in addition to the regular sports venues such as table tennis, ice hockey, and tennis courts, the palace also has a huge golf course and a royal horse farm.

In the gap between the Swedish royal housekeeper and the royal family's historical heritage, Sith. Pan gave Kong Zhendong the history of the Swedish Table Tennis King's Cup.

After the birth of the Swedish Table Tennis Super League in the sixties, because of the royal family's love for the sport, there has been a tradition of the king receiving the annual league champion since the early seventies.

But slowly, after receiving different league champions for several years in a row, members of the royal family often discuss the topic of who is stronger this championship or the previous champion.

After arguing for several years, some members of the royal family suggested that the royal family hold a King's Cup for the current league champion to challenge the previous league champion.

The winner receives the King's Cup presented by the King himself.

Sith. Pan smiled: "Although the Swedish royal family is very close to the people, it is difficult for a large family to watch the game together, so the King's Cup is a big gathering of nobles every year. The winner of the Copa del Rey will also enter the royal showroom, and everyone who visits will see it. ”

Kong Zhendong learned that the Copa del Rey has been held for nearly 20 years, and the Wolverines have only participated in it twice ten years ago when Bengersen was at its peak, and they lost both times.

This competition is also a long-cherished battle for the Wolverines for 20 years.

Of course, what media reporters are more concerned about is how Kong Zhendong will perform in the face of Waldner, the only one in Europe who defeated him, and the only mountain that cannot be crossed?

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Kong Zhendong and others were received by the king and queen of Sweden.

Kong Zhendong finally saw the atmosphere of old husbands and young wives in Sweden.

The king is about to be sixty years old, but the queen is less than forty.

Although the king is old, he is definitely the top handsome uncle in Northern Europe.

The Swedish king was tall, with a three-dimensional face, and a very friendly smile.

He first shook hands with Bengersen and said with a smile: "Bengerson, when I first saw you in the Copa del Rey, Victoria still couldn't walk, and now I'm an old guy~"

Bengersen was well acquainted with the King of Sweden and just smiled and exchanged pleasantries with the King.

The king then shook hands with Kong Zhendong and smiled at the queen: "This little guy has already beaten several Swedish world champions before Victoria, and I have always wanted to see him play." ”

The queen smiled and joked: "I heard Madeleine and Victoria often mention him, my ears are almost calloused, let Waldner fix him today~"

The King of Sweden and Kong Zhendong just smiled and shook hands to get closer, and Kong Zhendong naturally didn't hear his conversation with the queen.

Because there will be competitions in the afternoon, the palace restaurant did not arrange a sumptuous lunch for the athletes, but opened a restaurant for the athletes to buffet.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the Wolverines players began to enter the Royal Arena for acclimatization.

The Skiers did not have a royal reception in the morning, so they adapted to the stadium in advance.

The royal table tennis hall has less than 300 seats, and the space is much smaller than that of the regular arena.

The venue is small, the feeling of hitting the ball, the echo, and the sealing will be very different, and Kong Zhendong must adapt to it from scratch.

After forty minutes of practice, Kong Zhendong initially adapted to the small arena, and friends from all walks of life invited by the royal family also began to enter.

Kong Zhendong stopped training and returned to the players' room to change out of his sweaty training clothes.

When he arrived at the door of the team's locker room, Kong Zhendong saw several palace security personnel searching back and forth in the corridor, as if looking for someone.

Entering the locker room, Kong Zhendong came to the jersey cabinet with his name tag on it, and took off his shirt, revealing the toning muscles that had been trained by long-term strength and physical training.

He began to take himself off as he reached open the door to the cabinet.

What is it?

Suddenly, a white figure jumped out of the cabinet.

There's someone hiding here? Is it brain-dead powder?

This figure is petite, wearing a pure white princess dress, because it suddenly came out, Kong Zhendong didn't see her face clearly, but it was definitely a little girl.

As soon as the little girl raised her head, she winked playfully at Kong Zhendong.

"Madeleine? How did you end up here? "Hiding in Kong Zhendong's locker is actually Madeleine, who I haven't seen for a week.

Madeleine's eyes rolled and said: "Uncle Edward is a distant relative of the royal family, so we are naturally distant relatives of distant relatives, and we came in to watch the game today." ”

Kong Zhendong immediately understood that those security personnel just now must be looking for this little witch.

Madeleine is usually a playful and cute girl, Kong Zhendong saw her wearing a princess dress for the first time, pure beauty and delicateness, as well as the firepower that jumped out.

Madeleine looked at Kong Zhendong and took off the upper body of his jersey, and said with a smile: "You're in good shape, if you win today, my sister and I will go to give you an award~"

Kong Zhendong said curiously: "Didn't the royal housekeeper say that winning the game later will be the royal princess award?" ”

Madeleine knew that she was speechless, and stuck out her tongue and said: "Our sisters and princesses are good friends, if you win, we will ask her to take us to present the award together, and if someone else wins the championship, I won't participate~"

Because the finals of the Champions League are not a home-and-away system, but a game in a third country, this Copa del Rey game is Kong Zhendong's last game this season.

Kong Zhendong decided to return to China after the Champions League final, so this will be his last game in Sweden.

In this curtain call, the victory against Sweden's old rival Waldner, after the victory, will also be awarded by the Victorian sisters, which is the best memory.

Madeleine took the initiative to hand the brand new jersey to Kong Zhendong, who put on the jersey and pushed the door out.

The auditorium was already full, and although the aristocratic audience did not shout as passionately as in the competition venue, the uniform applause had a unique momentum.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Sweden's 1993 Table Tennis King's Cup kicked off.

In the first game, the Wolverines took on the Skiers Waldner.

The audience, most of whom were fans of Washen, applauded and cheered for him.
