Chapter 349: A Tribute to the Classics.
"Ah, I knew that Your Highness Franz would say that, I beg you, Your Highness, please show me the power of justice!"
Don't invite dinner another day, rush to the scene, just get it today.
Helena has said everything about this, Franz is not stupid, he probably thinks that the routine of "inviting you to dinner another day" will not work, so he simply made it clear, touched Helena's legs, Franz went straight to the point, "Of course, but ...... What should I do? ”
Well, just waiting for your words.
"First of all, let's teach those hypocritical sinners a lesson." Helena said, whispering her thoughts to Franz.
Na, in fact, it's not a great plan, what Helena is talking about now is nothing more than the inspiration that Brother Hao got from the original plot of "Cinderella", in short, it is the classic old trick of trying on the crystal slipper.
Franz was taken aback when he heard Helena's proposal, and he hurriedly asked Helena, "But there are so many girls in the kingdom, there is always someone who can wear your shoes?" ”
"It's okay, even if someone is the same size as me and can fit my shoes, but the other one is in my hand, you can just let her take out the other one when the time comes."
"If she can't take it out...... It's hypocrisy. The prince laughed again, for it seemed to him that Helena was so clever that the plan was foolproof.
But to be honest, this plan is indeed foolproof for Brother Hao, why? Because Helena is now stepping on a pair of crystal slippers, the only difference is that the crystal slippers in the original plot were given to Cinderella by the fairy, while the crystal slippers in Brother Hao's plot are ...... It was indeed bought by Brother Hao with real money.
It's quite fateful to say (it is estimated that the plot is deliberately arranged), originally when he bought Helena's outfit, Brother Hao didn't think about the crystal slipper, after all, there are no fairies, so go to the dark stream, but when he was shopping in the shoes and socks market, he met a foot trader.
The so-called foot merchants are the kind of merchants who shuttle back and forth in various countries in the Middle Ages, they do not have a fixed store, no fixed source of goods, and no fixed buyers, but buy wherever they go, and sell them at the same time, and the random liquidity is very large. But compared to that era, these people are still very popular with everyone, in addition to the after-sales service is not guaranteed, their goods are very strange, and sometimes they can be bartered, which is eye-opening and very convenient.
Brother Hao encountered such a product at that time, and what was even more coincidental was that he really sold a pair of crystal shoes on his luggage.
Of course, Brother Hao definitely doesn't believe in any coincidence or anything like that, this thing appeared, obviously to serve the plot, and it was with this kind of idea that the merchant proposed that this unique pair of shoes cost 200 gold coins, Brother Hao gritted his teeth...... Confession.
In the end, this pair of crystal shoes serves the plot, after getting it, Helena tried it, and the size was completely consistent, and it was precisely because of the particularity of these shoes that Brother Hao dared to play the stalk of trying on the crystal shoes again, not afraid that others would have it, and he was not worried that others could afford it.
The next day (five minutes later), His Highness Franz issued a new edict in the most crowded part of the town, which read as follows:
[His Royal Highness Prince Franz decided to marry the girl who wore these crystal shoes to the ball at the ball last night, but he didn't know what the girl's name was, so from now on, we will travel the country to find a girl who can wear these shoes, therefore, all the girls in the country, please wait at home, waiting for the guards to bring shoes to verify their identity. 】
As soon as this edict was issued, the whole country was in an uproar, and all the girls poured back to their homes from the streets, waiting for the guards with crystal slippers to come to the door, as for who was the owner of the crystal slippers? Who the hell cares about this, after all, this is a pair of shoes with a specific size, as long as there is a size, then there is a chance.
Of course, in order to make Helena's life path worry-free, Brother Hao made such a move, mainly aimed at......
"Why haven't you been here for so long?"
In the corridor outside the three-story western-style building, Blanchett stood at the door with Anatasha and Dusula, looking at the direction of the street, they had to dress up beautifully almost every morning, and then stood at the door collectively and looked at it for a while, today was no exception, but there was no movement for a few days, Dusula was a little breathless.
But if it is really as His Royal Highness the Prince said, if he travels all over the country to try on small shoes, then it is estimated that Helena's family will have to wait for N a long time before they can wait for the guards, but this is a plot scene in the end, so soon, the palace guards with crystal shoes came.
Helena was still dressed as Cinderella before, she didn't go out and wait with her (even if she wanted to, the family wouldn't agree), and when the guards came, she was squatting around the stove and busy, but it didn't matter, soon, the show was about to be staged.
A few girls at the door saw the guard's tall horse, all of them were very excited, and they all surrounded them with a grunt, and after a wave of flattery, the guard helped his forehead, held out the crystal slipper, and looked at the melon girls in front of him, and then asked.
"So...... Who is going to try it on? ”
"I'm coming!"
Without waiting for everyone to reply, Anatasha, as the eldest sister, had already taken a step forward, snatched the shoes from the guard's hands and ran towards the room, although the mood of this goods Brother Hao could understand, but what happened after that was more funny.
- Anatasha's size obviously doesn't fit into her shoes.
Brother Hao watched her tinker for a long time, but his heels couldn't squeeze in, and Blanchett, who was so anxious, kept asking "how is it?"
"No, you can't stuff it in." Anna looked furious, and kept shoving her foot into the crystal slipper.
"Keep it up! As long as that part is stuffed in, you're royalty! No matter how much it hurts, you have to endure it and stuff it in! Blanchett also saw Anna's embarrassment, and was also anxious to burn her eyebrows.
Brother Hao saw that it was almost there, and glanced at Helena by the stove, Helena got up and slowly paced to Anna's side.
"Sister, how about trying this?" Helena said as she felt something from behind her, and the cold light flashed, but it was a bright kitchen knife.
"Oh yes! Cinderella occasionally comes up with great ideas! ”
I don't know if I was dazzled by the glory and wealth of the royal family, or if I had the obsession to wear it in my heart, the moment I saw Helena take out the kitchen knife, the anxious Blanchett's eyes suddenly lit up, she snatched the kitchen knife, said this, and then added a sentence.
"Anna! Hurry up! Hurry up and chop off your heels! ”
