Once upon a time there was a princess who couldn't sleep all night. From the time she found out she was no longer a child, she began to lose sleep.

On her sixteenth birthday, her father and mother told her that, like all princesses of neighboring countries, she must find a valiant prince, capture him with love, ask him to be king, and destroy for her a thousand-year-old dragon with three heads and six barbed tails.

How do you capture a prince with love? the princess asked. The queen sighed without answering and looked at the king who had almost forgotten how to speak.

"I do not know, and my mother did not teach me, and my mother's mother did not teach her any spells or spells can be cast. Once upon a time I was also a princess and was ordered to find a prince who could subdue a thousand-year-old dragon, so I found your father, a prince.

"But he, ah, he said he loved me, so that I thought I had captured him with love, he simply refused to go for me to find that dragon. He was too lazy, not strong enough, not smart enough, he would say he was too busy, or that he was not in the mood to go on a journey, just like my mother and my grandmother's husband, neither of whom went on a journey, so that dragon, had lived for at least a thousand years, or several thousand years. Our hope is in you to find a prince who will conquer the dragon for us and fight for our glory, and if you can't find one, we can help you find one."

For the sake of the country, the princess decided to join the other princesses, together with the ball to find it, sitting on a small bench, waiting for the prince to see her delicate face and gorgeous clothes. The princess soon found a dance partner, but also find a date. Although the waistband of the vest tied her breath, false eyelashes stabbed her eyes with tears, too small high heels so that her heels and toes suffered.

The princess is an impetuous girl, so her first date is the first dance partner who asks her to dance. Hearing that the prince came from a rich country, the princess was so excited and dizzy that she agreed to go on a date with him in the back garden immediately after one dance. The prince kissed the princess hard in the shade of the tree. Oh, poor princess, when she lost her first kiss, she thought that this was the international etiquette for the first meeting between a man and a woman, which neither the king nor the mother had taught her.

The prince said to the princess: "It is an honor for you to know me, for I am the object of every princess' dreams. In my treasury, I have a magic wand that turns stones into gold. My ancestors passed down secret spells to me: if I find a real princess, the magic wand will begin to function."

The second time she attended the ball with the prince, the prince pointed to other princesses and said to her: "Look, you should tighten your waist a little more, but also to learn her graceful appearance, so that a feminine princess. A real princess should be as light as a swallow when she dances." The princess did as she was told. If she hadn't almost gone into shock one day because she couldn't breathe well, she might have made herself into an eighteen-waist like some princesses.

The princess looked at her bruised belly in the mirror and gasped, saying to herself: Listen, I don't know what love is, but I don't love that prince, and I see him once in pain.

The princess, who no longer attended the ball with the prince, decided to hunt for the prince at a different ball.

The second prince was very tender to her, and from his eyes the princess found for the first time that she did not look ugly. One night, they watched the moon together in the rose garden, and when his lips were about to touch her snow-white neck, the princess asked him if he would kill the giant dragon with three heads and six tails for her, and the prince hid under a chair and shivered: "I grew up most afraid of hearing about dragons." The princess sighed and stomped away on her heels, and the prince wailed behind her. All the weavers and frogs in the grass immediately stopped playing romantic songs.

The princess, who is bent on working for her future, finds a third prince. Leaving the dimly lit ball, she realizes that the handsome prince is actually wearing a pair of high heels higher than hers, and his face looks funny when he falls and plays it cool.

The princess laughed so hard she couldn't sleep all night.

The fourth prince is actually a little older than the king of a small country, he used the light to hide his crow's feet and tell his story as a heavenly tale. By chance, the princess's lady-in-waiting visited his kingdom and inquired that he turned out to already have a wife and a bunch of children.

The fifth prince transferred his head to the princess on the third date, the princess had a moment of mercy to lend him her piggy puff full, and soon after found out that the prince had bought a new steed, which carried another princess after the steed.

The sixth prince was well read and the princess's ears were enchanted by his wonderful words. He recited for the princess the sonnets of "The Prince Slays the Dragon" and also wrote for her "Sixty-Four Techniques for Slaying Dragons" and trained her how to be a dignified and virtuous traditional princess. But when the princess asked him, "When will you slaughter that dragon for me?" The prince, however, told her that he had never learned to ride a horse or use a sword. Just as a cockroach flew past their feet, the prince shouted, "Hey, kill it! I can tell you what my mother did to these scum. Quick, take off your shoes ......"

The seventh prince looked very capable. His father was heard to be just a tramp, but he single-handedly built the kingdom to become king himself. The princess thought to herself, "Now the prince I found is bound to be brave. The prince tried to take the princess to other kingdoms to do "national diplomacy" and build her reputation. The princess had a hard time finding the opportunity to ask him to kill the three-headed, six-tailed dragon for her in the future? The prince looked at his dense schedule and said, "No time, no time, I still have 20 dragons to deal with, yours is not in my plans, if you love me, you should learn some ninja skills, put poison bait to kill a few for me, so I will be easier."

The princess was so disappointed that she turned around and left, unable to sleep all night again. When the moon rose to the middle of the sky, the queen suddenly appeared at the edge of her bed and said to her, "Daughter, did you find the prince or not? The other princesses next door, Princess Ahua and Princess Mimi, have already found someone. Stop picking!"

"But ...... no prince is willing to kill that dragon!"

"No ...... it doesn't matter! Whatever! Originally I also thought your father would kill that dragon for me, I did not expect, alas, he did not even raise a horse well, and now that horse is no longer able to run, long ago could not bear his weight."

"But ...... I can't find a prince to kill that dragon, what should I do?"

"You can just find a prince, maybe give birth to a princess, like all our old ancestors, and when the princess grows up to find another prince to kill that dragon, it's none of your business."

The princess was stubborn and she did not give up trying because of this. She began to learn horseback riding and swordplay, hoping to find the real Prince Charming outside the misty lights of the ball. Unfortunately, the eighth prince was strong and powerful, but his temper was harder to handle than a tyrannosaurus, the ninth prince was concussed when his horse back-flipped while boasting of his riding skills, and the tenth prince told her that no princess could "really" win against a prince when he fell under her sword.

No longer impatient, the princess went mad and rode her horse wildly, jumping over all the fences in the kingdom marked "dragon, danger" and taking her sword in search of the three-headed, six-tailed dragon.

The closer she got to the huge figure, the harder her heart beat. However, the closer she got to it, the smaller it became. It was a phantom dragon. By the time she reached it, it was as pocket-sized as a Barbie doll. The dragon said to her with a gentle look, "Please don't be so ...... so mean ...... good ...... bad? If ...... just now you used ...... a more polite tone ...... to ask me out, I ...... would be good ...... greet you."

The princess and the dragon made good friends. Strictly speaking, it is just a beautiful little chameleon, except that it will play some magic, the more you are afraid, and it is farther apart, it becomes bigger, no wonder history once recorded that it is higher than the Himalayas.

The story is told here, does anyone feel very sad ah? Is the world we can never meet the prince who is willing to destroy a thousand-year-old dragon with three heads and six barbed tails for us?

The princess has a dragon as a pet, ruling the kingdom alone, no longer participate in the ball with the prince, however, all the princes and princesses behind her back called her a freak, sometimes she also found that no love worth looking forward to also make people lonely. The princess still couldn't sleep all night.

A few years later the princess fell while riding a horse in the wilderness, a shepherd lent a helping hand to save the princess from unconsciousness and gave her the only bowl of rice to eat. So ...... the princess found a real prince with his noble and generous eyes. They got married, and that dragon made fireworks for free at the wedding.
