Indeed, an evil spider appeared and surrounded the queen with a web. But as the spider was busy, the magic horse came along and wanted to kill the spider. It was just about to put its foot on the spider when the buzzing fly worked its way out and wanted to help the spider. But the magic horse killed them both. At that moment, the king, who was made of glass, turned into a real human king, the thorny bush turned into a pretty girl, the queen was freed from the spider's web, and the glass king told everyone how it had all happened.
