- Once upon a time there was a king 👑 and a queen👸, they lived in peace with each other and had twelve children👬, but they were all boys. Now the king said to his wife, "If the thirteenth child you give birth is a girl 👩🏻🦰, let the twelve boys die, so that her wealth💰 may grow, and the kingdom fall to her alone." He also had twelve coffins ⚰️ made, which were already filled with planing shavings, and in each one lay the dead kiss, and had them brought to a closed parlour, then he gave the queen 👸 the key 🔑 and ordered her not to tell anyone about it.
