The story of Princess and Pea, also known as Princess on Pea, is an article in Andersen's fairy tales. This article mainly tells the story of the prince testing the real princess with peas. The truth of this story is easy to understand, that is, telling people that real gold is not afraid of fire, and don't be blinded by superficial phenomena.
The real princess in the story, sleeping on twenty mattresses and twenty beds of duck down, can still feel the pain caused by a pea. The old queen thinks she is a real princess, with white skin and tender flesh. But the prince wants to marry a real princess and judge the real princess by her delicate skin, which also satirizes the ignorance of the feudal class.
Therefore, it has also become something of great historical significance and was sent to the museum. The feudal rulers were so absurd. This short story is a great irony, which is similar to the emperor's new clothes. In addition, some people say that Andersen used this to satirize the fragility and vulnerability of feudal nobles.
