So once a week the three men disguised themselves as the Masked Cleaning Ladies of Om.King Harry and his two captains raced out of the dining room. Minutes later, dusters in hands, and dressed as the famous cleaning ladies, th
11、ey were at work tidying the castle.King Harry and Captain Jones were polishing the cannons when they saw a man walking towards the castle.That must be Mr Goal, said Captain Jones.

Wed better keep an eye on him, said King Harry.King Harry and the two captains cleaned around the castle for the rest of the
13、 morning. But they made sure that one of them was always watching Princess Jane Mr Goal.The three cleaners stopped for a cup of tea in the kitchen.Well, said King Harry. There doesnt seem to be anything funny going on.I saw the Princess put the ball in the net dozens of times, said Captain Jones.She
14、 was heading the ball perfectly when I went by, said Captain Smith.Theres nothing to worry about, said King Harry. Now perhaps we can tackle the grime round the cooker.Princess Jane stuck her head round the door.How are things going, dear? asked King Harry. Brilliantly, said Princess Jane. Ive never
15、 played better. Ive just poppede in to say that were having one last training session. We will be in the library. Mr Goal says that he does not want anyone to come in.She was gone in a flash.That sounds a bit odd to me, said Captain Jones.Very odd, agreed Captain Smith.I think that its time to polis

20、 does he want her to think that? asked King Harry.Because, gasped Captain Janes, Carrot Castle are playing in red. If the Princess thinks that red is green she will pass to the Carrot Castle team instead of ours.So thats why King Charles was talking to Mr. Goal, said King Harry.Cant we snap her out

Follow me to Carrot Castle.The Masked Cleaning Ladies stopped outside the kitchen of Carrot Castle. Mrs. Jumpkins was pegging out the carrot Castle red football sh
22、irts. The cleaning ladies got off their horses. They pretended to look at the shirts.Oh dear, said King Harry.Oh dear, oh dear, assed Captain Jones and Captain Smith.Whats the matter? asked Mrs. Jumpkins.When are you going to wash these shirts? asked Captain Smith.What do you mean? snapped Mrs. Jump
