The old king was very sad, and he was very sad for more than a year. The old king felt that this was not the way to go, so he called the matchmaker and said, "Now I need you to deal with a very important matter. Give me a bracelet and tell me that as long as someone can wear a bracelet on their feet, they will be my future queen."
These matchmakers have traveled through mountains and rivers, and they have searched the whole country and have not found a woman who can wear bracelets on her feet, but these matchmakers do not If they dared to go back to their lives, the old king would definitely chop off their heads. At this time, the oldest matchmaker thought of a way. She said: "Now we will die if we go back like this, but I think of a person who will definitely be able to wear a bracelet. ."
Everyone looked at each other, the old matchmaker said, "The king's daughter, the princess!" So under the leadership of the old matchmaker, everyone came to the princess' mansion. The

A matchmaker replied, "It's none other than Her Royal Highness. If you marry the princess, how happy it would be." The old king nodded and agreed with the matchmaker, so he ordered people to prepare the wedding, but let everyone Don't inform the princess yet.
The princess only knew that she was about to get married, but she didn't know that the object of marriage was her father, so she was very happy. On the day of the wedding, the princess didn't even know that she was going to marry her father.
The daughter of the prime minister brought beautiful flowers to the princess and looked at the princess sadly. The princess was very strange and asked her why she was so sad and how happy it was that she was about to marry the prince.
The prime minister's daughter whispered in the princess's ear: "Don't you know, if you really want to know, please give me your golden bracelet and I will tell you."
The princess took off the golden bracelet After giving it to her, she told the princess the secret of this marriage, especially that the father of the king, the princess, is the future husband of the princess.
The princess was taken aback and couldn't believe her ears. After calming down, she said to the servants, "I'm a little tired. I need a rest. You go out first." The servants went out and closed the door.

The princess asked to make it the next morning, and the tailor nodded in agreement.
The tailor asked his wife and son to help, and finally made this strange set of leather clothes after a busy night. In the early morning, the princess quietly left the tailor's house wearing the leather clothes.
At the same time, the king was still preparing the details of the wedding, and when he went to find the princess, only to find that the princess had disappeared. The king immediately ordered the guards to search the whole city, and the princess must be captured.
The princess waited for dawn, ran out of the city gate when the guards did not arrive, and began to flee, she finally left her father's kingdom.

Due to the exhaustion of fleeing this way, the princess fell to the ground and fainted. A maid in the desert kingdom found a strange leather-clad man and told the queen of the desert kingdom.
The queen thought it was very interesting, and ordered the maid to bring the leather-clad man to the palace. She wanted to see with her own eyes what kind of monster it was. The maid just wanted to tell some news, but she didn't expect the queen to be very interested, so she had no choice but to take the courage and drag the man in leather back to the palace. The princess didn't say a word in the leather coat.
The whole palace had never seen the man in leather, and the queen was surprised and asked: "Who are you?" The man in leather replied: "I am Jade, old and ugly, the most pitiful person in the world. "
The queen laughed, but someone put herself in a leather jacket because she was old and ugly, and ordered the maid to bring food to the leather man. After the leather man was full, the queen asked her: "What can you do, I I'll give you a job in the palace."
The leather man replied, "Anything is fine."
The queen asked the leather man to work in the kitchen , so the princess stayed in the desert kingdom and worked in the palace's kitchen, working every day It was very hard work, and the most dirty and tiring work was done by the princess. When the queen is bored, she even asks the princess to come out and go around in circles, and then laugh out loud.
One day, the prime minister of the desert kingdom invited the queen and all the people from the palace to go to his house for a dinner party. Before leaving, the queen thought of the man in leather, and asked her if you didn't want to go. The palace was empty and terrifying. of.
The princess replied, "I am Jade, I am old and ugly, and I am the poorest person in the world."
The queen and others started a dinner party at the prime minister's house. They sang and danced, and it was very lively. Suddenly the door was pushed open, and a beautiful woman stood at the door. She seemed to be a fairy. She was wearing a princess dress, and the whole room glowed because of her arrival. , everyone hopes to be able to sit beside this fairy.
This fairy is actually a princess. The princess and other queens left the palace, immediately unbuttoned their leather jackets, and quietly followed the queen to the prime minister's house.
Dawn is coming soon, the princess took out a lot of broken gold from the package around her waist and threw it into the air. Everyone at the banquet bent over to pick up the gold scattered on the ground. When everyone was busy, the princess immediately left and returned to the palace, and quickly changed it. Leather jacket.
Not long after the queen and others returned to the palace, they found nothing. The queen only saw the man in leather still working in the kitchen.
The king's son, the little prince, came back from a study tour, and the queen told him that a few days ago a dinner was held at the prime minister's house, and there was a fairy on the way, she was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen in her life, more beautiful than everyone else, she was not some minister The daughter of , she doesn't seem to be a mortal.
After hearing about it, the little prince admired very much, hoped to see the fairy, and said to the queen: "Mother, I really want to marry such a girl, tonight you all continue to go to the prime minister's dinner party, I will wait for her at the door, and then ask her name and home address.”
The women in the palace were busy dressing themselves up at night, and they were going to attend the prime minister’s dinner. Before leaving, the queen asked the man in leather: “Are you going to be alone in the palace tonight? "
The man in leather nodded and said nothing. When the queen and everyone left, the princess unbuttoned her leather jacket and quietly followed behind. As mysterious as the last time, they attended the dinner party. Everyone liked this mysterious woman very much. They asked her name and her home address, but the princess never answered or said a word.
At dawn, the princess scatters gold again and leaves the prime minister's house quickly. But this time, he met a person. The person was waiting at the door. The little prince waited for a long time. When he saw the mysterious fairy come out, he grabbed her by the arm and asked her name and where she lived.
The princess was in a hurry to get away, so she threw off the little prince's hand and hurriedly pulled off the little prince's ring. The little prince was unwilling and shouted: "At least you have to tell me where I live."
The princess ran as she ran. Answer: "I live in a country of spoons and chopsticks ." The princess ran back to the palace and immediately changed into leather clothes and became a leather man.
The little prince returned to the palace, told the queen that he already knew the address of the fairy, and immediately set off to find the fairy. The queen said, "Don't worry about this, you have to prepare a lot of things, at least you have to eat." The little prince had no choice but to postpone the departure for a few days.
So the palace was busy, preparing food, clothes and travel expenses for the little prince's long journey. In particular, the chefs in the kitchen are very busy. The chef scolded the man in leather for not letting her get close to the prince's food, because the man in leather looked really dirty.
The leather man said: "Please look at the queen's face, let me do my part."
The chef gave the leather man a piece of dough, and the leather man started to make cake seriously. At that time, he quietly put the little prince's ring into the cake, and finally the man in leather put his own cake on top of all the food.
On the third day, the little prince led the crowd to look for the kingdom with spoons and chopsticks that the fairy said. On the way, the car and horses were exhausted, and everyone told the little prince that he needed to eat before continuing on the road. The little prince asked the team to stop for a meal and rest.
At this time, a follower threw a small cake in the place, the little prince was very strange and asked: "Why did you lose the food, don't you know how to cherish the food?"
The follower replied: "Prince, you have misunderstood , this cake cannot be eaten, because I saw with my own eyes that this cake was made by a man in a leather coat, which is dirty and smelly, so the cake she made must not be eaten.”
The little prince is a kind person, he picked it up and threw it to the ground When he opened the cake, he saw that there was actually a ring that was taken away by the fairy in the prime minister's house. He was suddenly enlightened, and he knew where the kingdom of spoons and chopsticks was. So he ordered everyone to go back the same way.
The little prince who returned to the kingdom was very happy. The king and the queen were a little surprised. The little prince said, "From now on, I only want the man in leather to cook for me!" Dirty and stinky, how can she cook for you?"
The little prince shook his head and insisted, "I won't eat anything other than her and other people's meals." The queen had no choice but to order the man in leather. In charge of the little prince's diet, the chefs in the kitchen all help the leather man prepare the food. After dinner is ready, the little prince also asks the leather man to bring the food to his own house.
The Queen said: "She has dark eyes, can't see the road, and can't hear what other people say." The little prince insisted on letting the man in leather deliver the meals, no matter what the Queen said.
The leather-clad man carried a large plate full of food. Due to the obstruction of the leather-clad man, the leather-clad man could not see the road and slipped to the ground accidentally. The queen said: "Look, you said good morning, she can't see the way."
The little prince still insisted that people in leather clothes should cook and deliver meals. The kitchen had to continue to help the leather-clad man to cook. This time, the queen sent two servants to help the leather-clad man hold the plate full of food, but fortunately he did not fall.
The little prince asked everyone to leave, leaving the leather man alone in the room. The little prince smiled and ordered, "Come here, pour me wine." Leather jacket, and finally the little prince cut the whole leather jacket, and instantly the room was lit up. The little prince saw the fairy inside the leather jacket, and her beauty illuminated the whole room.
The little prince hid the fairy behind the screen and asked the maid to call the queen over. The queen saw that there were pieces of leather clothing all over the ground and said, "Son, how can you kill people? Although people in leather clothing are dirty, you can't kill people."
The little prince said, "You misunderstand, you always call her the person in leather clothing. , you forgot her name, the man in leather, Jade, look who this is?" While speaking, the little prince pulled Jade over, and the queen saw the fairy who appeared in the prime minister's house, her eyes almost flying out of her sockets. Unexpectedly, the leather-clad man is so beautiful.
The queen loves Jade very much, and she pulled her to sit together. The three of them ate together and chatted together. The wedding was held the next day. The people in the desert kingdom were not married to the prince and thought the Jade Fairy was happy.
We went back to the old king. After finding out that his daughter had escaped, the whole city hunted for his daughter. In the end, he was very angry and arrested the old matchmaker who proposed to marry the princess. The king personally led people to find the princess.

The princess found her father in the palace. It was the old king who had come from afar, so she called the little prince and told the little prince to keep the old king and everyone behind.
The little prince personally went out of the city to welcome the old king and his party, and invited them into the city to enjoy food.
The little prince insisted on keeping him and told the old king that it was going to be dark soon. There were many robbers in this generation, so they were not suitable for walking at night, and there was delicious food to entertain them. The crowd and the old king could not refuse the enthusiasm of the little prince, so they stayed aside. Take a break while enjoying a meal.
During the dinner, the princess put on a man's clothes, sat opposite the old king, and asked the old king to tell his story. The old king said, "We don't have any happy stories, so you should tell me."
The princess smiled slightly, Said: "Once upon a time there was a king who had a beautiful queen and a beautiful daughter. The queen died. The king listened to the advice of the matchmaker and wanted to marry his daughter. The daughter quickly fled the palace..."
At this time, the old matchmaker brought by the old king said: "Don't tell it, don't you have a happy story?" The princess ignored it, continued to tell the story, and finally said to the old king: "Father, take a closer look at who I am. Who, I am your miserable daughter, you listened to the villain's slander and actually wanted to marry your own daughter, and I began to wander and experience this miserable life."
The old king bowed his head in shame and said nothing. The next day, the little prince, the old king and others came to the edge of the cliff and threw the old matchmaker off the cliff. The old king said, "I'm sorry, my daughter, in order to make up for my fault, I am willing to give half of the kingdom to you and Your husband."
