In the distant ancient times, people's best wishes can often become reality. In that fascinating era, there once was a king. The king had several daughters, all of whom were very beautiful; especially his
The little daughter is as beautiful as a fairy. Even the sun, which has seen a lot, is amazed by her beauty every time it shines on her face.
Near the king's palace, there is a large dark forest. In this forest, under an old linden tree, there is a deep pool. When the weather is hot, the little princess often comes to this forest and sits there.
Beside the cool pool. When she was bored sitting there, she took out a golden ball, threw it into the air, and then caught it with her hands. This became her favorite game.
Unfortunately, one time, the little princess stretched out her two little hands to catch the golden ball, but the golden ball did not fall into her hands. Instead, it fell to the ground and rolled into the puddle. The little princess was stunned.
She stared closely at the golden ball, but the golden ball suddenly disappeared in the pool. Because the water in the pool was very deep and the bottom could not be seen, the little princess started crying, and her crying became louder and louder.
, cried so sadly.
While she was crying, the little princess suddenly heard someone saying loudly: "Oh, princess, what's wrong with you? You're crying so loudly that even a stone will feel distressed."
After hearing this, the little princess looked around to figure out where the voice was coming from, but unexpectedly she found a frog sticking out its ugly, fat head from the water.
"Ah! It turns out it's you, a good swimmer," the little princess said to the frog. "I'm crying here because my golden ball fell into the pool."
"Okay, don't be sad, don't cry," the frog replied, "I have a way to help you. If I help you fish out your golden ball, what will you give me in return?"
"My dear frog, I can give you anything you want," replied the little princess. "I can give you my clothes, my pearls and gems, and even this golden crown that I wear on my head."
After hearing this, the frog said to the little princess: "I don't want any of your clothes, your pearls, your gems, and your golden crown. However, if you like me, let me be your good friend."
, let's play together, let me sit at the same table with you when we eat, eat from your little gold plate, drink from your little goblet, and let me sleep in your little bed at night; if you agree to all this
If nothing else, I will dive into the pool and fish out your golden ball."
"Okay, great," the little princess said, "As long as you are willing to fish out my golden ball, I will agree to all your requests." Although the little princess said this, she thought in her heart: "This one
Frogs are really stupid. They talk nonsense! He only deserves to squat in a pool and croak with other frogs. How can he be a good friend of humans?"
After the frog got the promise from the little princess, he plunged his head into the water and dived into the pool. After a while, the frog came out of the water with the golden ball in his mouth, and then spit the golden ball on the grass.
The little princess was extremely happy to see her beloved toy again. She picked up the golden ball and ran away.
"Don't run! Don't run!" the frog shouted, "take me with you! I can't run as fast as you."
Although the frog screamed at the top of his lungs, it was of no use. The little princess ignored the frog's cry and ran straight back home, quickly forgetting all about the poor frog. The frog had no choice but to jump.
Jumping back to the pool.
The next day, the little princess had just sat down at the dining table with the king and ministers and started to eat from her little gold plate. Suddenly she heard a snapping sound. Following the sound, something jumped up the marble steps.
When she got to the door, she knocked on the door and shouted: "Little princess, open the door quickly!" Hearing the shout, the little princess hurried to the door to see who was shouting outside. When she opened the door, it turned out to be that person.
A frog was squatting in front of the door. Seeing it was a frog, the little princess suddenly closed the door, turned around and hurried back to her seat, feeling extremely scared.
The king found the little princess looking flustered and asked her: "My child, why are you so scared? Is there a giant outside the door who wants to kidnap you?"
"Ah, no," the little princess replied, "it's not a giant, but a nasty frog."
"What does the frog want from you?"
"Oh! My good father, yesterday, I went to the forest. When I was sitting by the pool and playing, the golden ball fell into the pool, so I cried. I cried very sadly, and the frog came for me.
I fished out the golden ball. Because the frog asked me to be his friend, I agreed, but I never thought that he would crawl out of the pool and crawl so far to get here. Now he is here
He's outside the door and wants to come to our place."
While he was talking, he heard another knock on the door, followed by a loud shout:
"Little princess, my love,
Open the door quickly!
The one who loves you has arrived,
Open the door quickly!
You will never forget yesterday,
By the pond under the old linden tree,
The pool is so deep that the balls are gone,
It was you who made the promise yourself."
After hearing this, the king said to the little princess, "You must not break your promise. Go open the door and let him in."
The little princess walked over and opened the door, and the frog jumped in. Then he followed the little princess to the seat, and then shouted: "Hold me to your side!"
The little princess trembled with fear after hearing this, but the king ordered her to do as the frog said. The frog was placed on the chair, but he was not very happy and wanted to go to the table. After getting on the table, he said: "Put your little golden plate on
Can you push it over a little? Then we can eat it quickly."
Obviously, the little princess was very reluctant to do this, but she still pushed the golden plate over. The frog ate with gusto, but the little princess had no appetite at all. Finally, the frog said: "I'm full. Now.
I'm a little tired, please carry me to your small bedroom, spread out your satin quilt, and then let's go to bed."
The little princess was afraid of this cold frog and didn't even dare to touch it. When she heard that he was going to sleep in her neat and beautiful little bed, she started to cry.
When the king saw the little princess like this, he angrily said to her, "Anyone who helped us when we were in trouble, no matter who he is, should not be despised later."
So, the little princess picked up the frog with two delicate fingers, took him upstairs, and put him in a corner of the bedroom. But as soon as she lay down on the bed, the frog crawled to the bed and said to her:
, "I'm tired. I also want to sleep on the bed. Please hold me up, or I will tell your father."
Upon hearing this, the little princess flew into a rage, grabbed the frog and threw it against the wall.
"Now go to sleep if you want, you ugly bastard!"
Unexpectedly, when he landed, he was no longer a frog, but suddenly turned into a prince: a prince with bright eyes and a smile on his face. Only then did the prince tell the little princess that he had been raped by a
The vicious witch cast a spell, and no one except the little princess could rescue him from the pool.
So, in accordance with the king's will, he became the little princess's close friend and companion. Tomorrow, they will return to his kingdom together.
The next morning, when the sun climbed up the mountain, a large carriage drawn by eight horses had stopped in front of the door. The horses had white feathers on their heads. They were swaying, and the horses were covered with glittering harnesses.
.Behind the carriage stood the prince’s servant, the loyal Henry.
When Henry's master was turned into a frog, he was so distraught that he put three iron hoops on his chest to prevent his heart from breaking with grief.
The carriage came to take the young prince back to his kingdom. The loyal Henry helped his master and princess into the carriage, and then stood behind the carriage.
They had just walked a short distance after getting on the road when they suddenly heard a crackling sound, as if something was broken. On the road, the crackling sound was heard again and again. Every time the prince and princess heard the noise, they thought it was from the car.
Something was broken. In fact, the loyal Henry was so happy when he saw his master was so happy that the iron hoops collapsed from his chest one after another.
