Chapter 204 The Happy Prince
The arrival of the swallow surprised Princess Rapunzel. She looked at the swallow and saw that the thin body fled from the window with its wings high after leaving a piece of gold behind.

"This, is this... gold?" Princess Rapunzel held up the gold piece in her palm, the color and luster was exactly the same as her hair.

She wiped away the tears on her face, and looked in the direction where the swallow flew away, "Who is that, why did it fly over with gold in its mouth?"

Chen Yi looked at the gold piece, and then at the open window in the corridor.

Gold flakes, swallows.
Chen Yi walked to the window and looked up, there was misty snow falling in the sky, it was like a scene full of winter, and the sky outside the window was blowing cold wind.

The answer couldn't be more obvious.

They walked into a fairy tale.

At this time, a group of mother and child passed by on the street. The child pointed to the silver moon hanging high in the sky, crying and clamoring for the mother to take it off.

"Why can't you be like the Happy Prince?" said the wise mother to her child who was crying for the moon. "The Happy Prince never dreamed that he would cry for something."

"Happy Prince." Chen Yi murmured.

In the winter fairy tale at this time, a statue named the Happy Prince stands tall in the town square.

He was clad all over with thin leaves of pure gold, and for his eyes were a pair of sapphires, and in the hilt of his sword a large ruby ​​shone bright red, and his heart was of lead.

The gold flakes brought by the swallows were undoubtedly the gold leaves on the Happy Prince.

Meet this fairy tale near the border of Gardro Kingdom.

No matter how Chen Yi thought about it, she could figure out the mystery hidden in it.

"Letuce." Chen Yi turned around and said.

Princess Rapunzel held back her tears and asked, "What's wrong, sir?"

Chen Yi just said: "Come with me, I know the owner of that piece of gold."

The innocent Princess Rapunzel nodded without thinking too much, and followed.

First the ruby ​​of the hilt, then the eyes of sapphires, and finally the leaves of gold on his body.

Chen Yi looked at the gold plate on Princess Rapunzel's hand, and understood that the Happy Prince's time was numbered.

Although the memory is hazy, he still remembers how the fairy tale ends.

When they walked to the desolate and cold street, they saw a swallow flying low, seemingly without much strength, with gold pieces carved in its mouth, which were given to the poor one by one.

Chen Yi saw that the faces of the children outside the window turned rosy, they laughed loudly and sang happily: "We have bread now."

It didn't take long for the swallow to fly back, and Chen Yi and Princess Rapunzel tried to stop it, but it seemed too weak, and the cold wind was howling it, so it didn't have much hearing, so it couldn't hear their cries.

Although the swallow is weak and its wings are very unstable, it tries to fly very fast, as if it is afraid that it will not catch up with anything.

The snow is coming, the severe cold is coming, and every minute and every second is colder than before.

Chen Yi and Princess Rapunzel stepped up their pace, and the figure of the swallow had disappeared, so they had no choice but to follow the direction it left and hurry over.

Princess Rapunzel slipped on her feet and almost fell, she held her knees, stood firmly on her heels, and continued to follow Chen Yi.

The stone bricks on the ground made people shiver with ice.

After an unknown amount of time, they finally reached the municipal square, and when they looked towards the center, they finally saw a gloomy statue.

Without the gold leaf, without the ruby ​​and sapphire, the Happy Prince was gray and ugly.

There was a dead bird under the prince's feet. It had just died, and the bird's claws were still twitching. The prince's appearance was not much better than that of a beggar.

Chen Yi and Princess Rapunzel were stunned for a while before slowly walking over.

The cold snow was blowing down along with the cold wind, and Princess Rapunzel shivered holding the gold piece.

Knowing the ending, Chen Yi slowly approached, feeling the sad atmosphere.

At this time, there was a strange cracking sound inside the statue, it was the sound of something breaking.

click.

Hearts made of lead are broken.

It was a bitterly cold day indeed, and the Happy Prince had no coat of gold leaves to keep him warm.

Chen Yi and Princess Rapunzel approached the Happy Prince. They heard a sad voice, like weeping, but there were no tears on the statue.

Princess Rapunzel gently raised the gold piece in her hand, she recognized the swallow, and felt sentimental in her heart.

"Is the piece of gold on the statue yours?" Princess Rapunzel asked softly.

She had thought that there would be no response, but she never thought that the boy's dying voice could be heard from the statue.

The sound was painful and sad.

"Yes. It's mine. My friend. Helped me give it to the poor. And now. It's freezing to death." The Happy Prince's voice was unbearably weak.

Chen Yi looked at the prince without sapphire eyes.

"Prince, I want to give it back to you. I'm not suffering. I'm just... just crying. I have to give it back to you." Realizing that the prince was so weak, Princess Rapunzel said anxiously, her eyes sore.

"Oh, you are very kind people," said the Happy Prince in silence, "give it to someone in need."

Rapunzel covered her mouth. When she came, she heard something breaking. Now that the prince was getting weaker, she realized that the Happy Prince was not far from death.

The Happy Prince was silent for a long time.

They all held their breath.

After a long time, he finally said hoarsely: "Have you seen it? My friend is lying on my feet."

Chen Yi and Princess Rapunzel nodded, they indeed saw the dead swallow.

Only to hear the Happy Prince make his last request.

"Good man, cry for me, and look at it for me." The Happy Prince held on, weak, "I can't cry for it, my tear ducts are made of stone, I can't look at it It, my eyes are given to the poor."

Princess Rapunzel nodded vigorously, she couldn't help it anymore, tears welled up in her emotionally sensitive eyes.

Chen Yi knelt down and looked at the dead swallow.

In fairy tales, just seeing each other once is enough to form a friendship that lasts until death.

Chen Yi remembered the ending of the fairy tale.

So, he raised his hand and whispered a word.

"Nora Rich."

Behind Princess Rapunzel, a gust of wind suddenly blows over.

Her mournful tears flew up on the wind, and fell on the eyes of the Happy Prince, and watered the hollow stone.

At this time, a miracle happened.

In the empty eye sockets of the Happy Prince, tears froze into precious stones, and Rapunzel's tears moistened the prince's eyes and made them bright again.The prince could see again as before.

Two fairy tales meet here.

Rapunzel's tears brought the prince a pair of sapphire eyes.

Chen Yi gently held the swallow and stroked it gently, the pure golden flame warmed it.

The swallow trembled, and then slowly opened its closed eyes. It rolled its eyes and looked at the person holding it curiously and surprised.

Then, Chen Yi raised her hand to touch the prince.

The heart made of lead slowly glued together again.

The Happy Prince and the Swallow felt these wonders in amazement.

Miracles in fairy tales need no explanation,
It's just well-timed where it's most needed in the story.

That is why it is a miracle in fairy tales.

Chen Yi knew that in her hazy memory,

At the end of the fairy tale, God is looking for two most precious things in this city.

That is a heart made of lead and a dead swallow.

They met God, who raised them back to life.

Chen Yi gently placed the swallow on the Happy Prince's hand.

His voice is soft.

"Your heart is made of lead, but it is more moving than many fleshy ones."
