I do the fairy tale king in the mermaid princess (11)
Before Yuanxi left the palace, he deliberately chose a few comfortable, inconspicuous clothes, and even the white horse he rode was unrecognizable to ordinary people, looking at a relatively ordinary breed.
"How much can you pay?" The man was a little unconvinced, and he didn't think that Yuanxi could come up with any good remuneration like this.
"These." Yuanxi took out the coins, these money is enough to stay in a hotel with good conditions in the city for one night, the other party saw the small denomination coins that Yuanxi took out and was obviously a little disgusted, but it may be that the family is not very rich, he said in an unhappy tone: "If you only have these, you can only sleep in the worst room." ”
"As long as there is a place to sleep." Yuanxi was not angry, it was good to live in a room with wind protection in this kind of wilderness, there was nothing to pick.
The man took Yuanxi to a small room at the end of the corridor, there was only a bed and a dilapidated low cabinet, and the room was not large, so it would not look empty, it should be the former maid's room.
Yuanxi checked it, although it was a little dusty, but it was still clean, and after cleaning it, he was ready to go to sleep, and he would get up early tomorrow morning and continue the trip.
Not long after lying down, the wind was raging outside, and one terrible lightning flashed after another, and Yuan Xi thought in his heart about the home he had made for Thumbelina in the afternoon, "It should be strong enough, I hope the other party can have a good night." She thought to herself.
After a while, Yuanxi, who was just about to fall asleep, heard another knock on the gate of the castle, "Hello." The man opened the door, and there was a girl soaked in wind and rain, the umbrella was completely scrapped, and the water ran down her hair and skirt, and into her shoes, which made her creak and look very down.
She said that she was a princess and wanted to stay for one night until the next day so that her servants could find her.
At this time, the hostess also heard this, and looked like the mother of the man, and she looked at the person who called herself the princess in front of her and seemed to be a little unconvinced, but did not refute it, but asked her son to take the princess aside to freshen up, and took out a pea from the kitchen herself.
Walking into the bedroom, she removed the bedding and placed peas on the bed. In order to cover up the peas, she took out twenty mattresses, pressed them against the peas, thought about it, and added twenty more eiderdown duvets, so that the princess could sleep on these twenty mattresses and twenty eiderdown duvets.
Yuanxi didn't listen to these carefully, but fell asleep early in the wind and rain, and the next morning, Yuanxi got up and was about to leave, and saw a girl walking down the stairs that seemed to be sore.
"How did you sleep?" The hostess couldn't wait.
"I'm sorry, I didn't sleep well." The girl twisted her neck stiffly, "I haven't slept all night!" I always felt like something very hard was holding me under the bed. She was visibly uncomfortable, but the mother and son cheered with great joy.
"Looks like you're a real princess." The man stepped forward and said.
"yes, I said that last night." The girl was a little puzzled.
Yuan Xi now fully understood what happened after knocking on the door last night, "It turns out that this is the legendary princess of Pea, but unfortunately, I slept too early last night." ’
"Mother, I will choose this real princess as my wife." The man said happily to the old hostess,
