Playmobil Fairy Tales: Princess and the Pea I 摩比童話之豌豆公主外傳-1

從前從前，在一個遙遠的國度，有一名王子。他從小的夢想就是娶一個真正的公主為妻。所以，當他成年時，他便開始環遊世界，為了實現他的夢想。可是，找了好幾年，他還是没有一個看得上眼；總是懷疑人家不是真正的公主。但是，真正的公主又該如何界定呢？

Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom, there was a prince, whose childhood dream had always been to marry a true princess as his wife. Therefore, when he grew up, he began to travel around the world in search for his dream. However, after many years, he could not find anyone that is satisfactory; he was always suspicious of them not being true princesses. But who knows how to classify a true princess?

某天，在一個暴風雨的夜晚，有兩名年輕女子來敲皇宮的大門：「請您們給我們在這兒住一晚上吧！我們兩是姊妹，是鄰國的人，前來這兒探親，結果被突如其來的大雨淋成了落湯雞，現在又濕又冷，一時也找不著今晚的落腳之處，可否請好心人士收留我們一個晚上呀？」

One day, in a dark and stormy night, two girls came to knock on the door of the castle. "Please let us stay here for a night! We are sisters that came from the neighbouring country, we came here to visit our relatives but was soaked by the sudden rain. We are extremely cold and wet and we are afraid we won't be able to find a place to stay for tonight. Please would you let us stay?"

皇宮的衛兵們看見在傾盆大雨裏兩名弱女子只有撐著一把小小的洋傘，雨水從她們的頭髮上一滴一滴的滴下來，真是可憐呀！

The guards, after seeing that the two girls were completely soaked through by the rain so raindrops constantly dripped from their long hair, felt pity for them.

於是，便前去和皇后娘娘稟報。

Therefore, they went to report it to the queen.

皇后也不是個壞心腸的人，聽見了她們的遭遇就同意了。這時皇后靈機一動：「看著她們的穿著與言行舉止倒是挺像是貴族，說不定正是兒子找尋多年的真正的公主呢！不如，就給他們來個考驗，試試他們是不是真正的公主吧！」皇后邊說邊笑著詭異的微笑。

The queen was not a person of badly disposition, after hearing their story, she immediately agreed to let them stay. Suddenly, she had an ingenious plan: "Their sense of fashion, appearance and etiquette seems like to be from a high birth, maybe they are true princesses that my son has been looking for all this time! Why not do a test on them to find out?" The queen thought to herself whilst smiling a queer smile.

皇后娘娘打算如何測試這兩名女子是否為真正的公主呢？

What is the queen planning to do to test the girls?
