Once upon a time there was a prince, he wanted to marry a princess, but only a real princess. So he traveled all over the world, looking for one, but everywhere there was something wrong: there were plenty of princesses, but whether they were real, he could not fully recognize this, there was always something wrong with them. So he returned home and was very sad: he really wanted a real princess.

One evening a terrible storm broke out; Lightning flashed, thunder roared, rain poured down like buckets, what a horror! And suddenly there was a knock on the city gates, and the old king went to open it.

The princess stood at the gate. My God, who did she look like in the rain and bad weather! The water flowed from her hair and dress, flowed straight into the toes of her shoes and flowed out of her heels, and she said that she was a real princess.

“Well, we’ll find out!” - thought the old queen, but didn’t say anything, but went to the bedchamber, took off all the mattresses and pillows from the bed and put a pea on the boards, and then took twenty mattresses and put them on the pea, and on the mattresses another twenty feather beds made of eider down.
It was on this bed that the princess lay down for the night.

In the morning they asked her how she slept.

Oh, terribly bad! - answered the princess. - I didn’t sleep a wink all night. God knows what was in my bed! I was lying on something hard and now I have bruises all over my body! This is just terrible!

Then everyone realized that this was a real princess. Of course, she felt a pea through twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds made of eiderdown! Only a real princess can be so tender.

The prince took her as his wife, because now he knew that he was marrying a real princess, and the pea ended up in the cabinet of curiosities, where it can be seen to this day, unless someone stole it.

Know that this is a true story!

Once upon a time there lived a Prince who really wanted to get married, but at all costs wanted to take a real Princess as his wife.

He traveled all over the world in search of a suitable bride. And although he came across many princesses, he could not decide whether they were real...

And in the end the Prince returned home in great sadness - he really passionately wanted to marry the real Princess!

One evening a terrible thunderstorm broke out. Thunder rumbled, lightning flashed, and rain poured down like buckets!

And so, in the midst of terrible bad weather, there was a knock on the castle doors.

The door was opened by the old King himself. A young girl stood on the threshold, wet and shivering. Water flowed over her long hair and dress, flowed out of her shoes in streams... And yet... the girl claimed that she was the real Princess!

“We’ll see soon, my dear,” thought the old Queen.

She hurried to the bedroom and with my own hand put the pea on the boards of the bed. Then she laid as many as twenty feather beds on top, one after another, and then the same number of blankets on the most delicate swan down. It was on this bed that the girl was laid.

And the next morning they asked her how she slept.

Oh, I had a terrible night! - the girl answered. - I didn’t sleep a wink for a minute! God alone knows what was in that bed! It seemed to me that I was lying on something very hard, and in the morning my whole body was covered in bruises!

Now everyone is convinced that the girl is a real Princess. After all, only a real Princess can feel a tiny pea through twenty feather beds and the same number of duvets! Yes, only the most real Princess can be so sensitive!

The Prince immediately married the Princess, and the pea is still kept in the royal museum.

You can go and see for yourself - unless someone stole it...

Hans Christian Andersen, Artist D. Patience

But the prince did not want either a smart woman or a beauty as his wife, but wanted to find a real princess - the real one! He traveled all over the world, saw many princesses, but for some reason he didn’t like all of them.

He returned home with nothing and was sad:
-There are no real princesses left in the world! So, it’s not my destiny to get married.

A girl was standing on the threshold. Water flowed from her hair and cloak in streams, and her shoes were completely soaked. They didn’t even want to let her in, but then the girl said that she was a princess.

-Princess? - the queen didn’t believe it. - Well, we'll check that.
While the guest was changing, the queen hurried into the bedroom and placed a tiny pea under a whole stack of mattresses and feather beds. Then she thought and put another stack of mattresses on top.
It was on this bed that the uninvited guest was supposed to sleep.

-How did you sleep? - the cunning queen asked her the next morning.
-Oh, terrible, simply terrible! - answered the princess. - I didn’t sleep a wink! What are your feather beds stuffed with? I was lying on some kind of bump - my whole body was covered in bruises! Oh!

And then everyone realized that in front of them was a real princess. You will ask why? Yes, because only a real princess can feel a tiny pea through a whole mountain of mattresses and feather beds. After all, only a real princess can be so pampered and sensitive.
