　　One day, there was a frightening night of thunder, lightning, and very severe rainstorms. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the castle. "Who is it in the middle of this stormy night?" The king went out his room and opened the door by himself curiously. A girl in shabby clothes was standing in front of the door. Even though she looked tired from the severe rainstorm and the strong winds, she was beautiful and looked clever.

　　She was soaking wet with rain. "I am a princess of your neighboring country, but I got lost. Could you please let me stay in your castle tonight." She asked him politely. The king was surprised to hear that the shabby girl was a princess, and he allowed her to stay in his castle out of pity.

　　但是王后认为这个女孩在撒谎。穿着如此寒酸的女孩真的是公主吗?我敢肯定她不是公主，但今晚就勉为其难让她留宿一晚吧。

Then, she covered the bed with twenty layers of blankets and another twenty layers of soft bird feather blankets. The girl fell asleep in that bed.

　　王后这样想着，便走进了客人的房间。她把所有的床单拿了下来，然后把一粒豌豆放在床上。之后，她又在床上铺了二十层毯子，另外又铺上了二十层柔软的羽毛被子。女孩上床后很快便睡着了。

　　The next morning, the queen asked the girl, "Did you sleep well last night?" Then, she answered, "I appreciate your kindness, but there was something under the blankets. It hurt me so much I could hardly sleep last night."

　　第二天早上，王后问女孩：“昨晚睡得好吗?”然后女孩回答说：“很感激你的好意，但毯子下面好像有东西。昨天晚上咯得我睡不着，让我觉得挺不舒服的。”

　　The queen was surprised at what she heard, and she thought that the girl must be a great princess. If the girl was so sensitive that she could not sleep well because of a green pea even under many blankets and soft bird feather blankets, she must be a noble princess. They found the noble princess accidentally. The prince was happy when he heard the story.

　　王后听到后感到很吃惊，她觉得这个女孩一定是个公主。如果一位女孩敏感到即使铺了那么多毯子以及羽毛被的情况下还会因为一个绿色的豌豆而失眠的话，她一定是一位高贵的公主。他们居然不经意间遇到了一位身份高贵的公主。王子听到这个事情的时候很高兴。

　　The prince made the princess his wife. The green pea was displayed in a museum. If someone had not taken the pea away, maybe we could have seen the pea in the museum.

　　公主答应了王子的求婚。那颗绿豌豆还在博物馆里进行展示。如果没人把那颗豌豆带走的话，也许现在我们还可能有幸一睹豌豆的风采。
