Hey.
According to this Apple Support article.
If you forget your notes password
You can only unlock a note when you enter the password that it's locked with. If you forget your password, Apple can't help you regain access to your locked notes.
You can create a new password, but this won’t give you access to your old notes. But it will let you password-protect any notes you create going forwards with the new password. This could lead to you having multiple notes with different passwords.
If you have multiple passwords, you can't tell which password you should use when you look at your notes in the Notes list. When you open a note locked with your old password but enter your current password, you'll see an alert that you entered the wrong password with a hint for your old one. If you then enter the correct old password, you get the option to update that note's password to your current one.

Have you tried to enable Face ID again? If you can’t and you don’t remember the password, you can’t open the notes. If you are running the beta of iOS 14 there are going to be bugs in the software.
I tried face id again but won’t ask for the old notes.i’m in 14 beta.🤞hope it happens from the bug...
At last I tried all of the passwords and one worked...Thanks a lot for giving an extremely uncommonly answer.That encouraged me well.
