Fairy Tales

When Prince Wald was 17 years old, King Jeyad was seriously ill. In addition, he realized that he would not live long. He decided to hand over state affairs to the prince before he died, so he said to his attendants, "I'm afraid my illness is difficult to cure. Go and bring the prince and all his family and courtiers to the palace quickly. I have something important to tell them.

As the king commanded, the attendants sent all the relatives and courtiers who lived outside the palace to the palace. People who were called into the palace from far and near rushed in, and everyone speculated about the upcoming events. After receiving their orders, they came to the king's bedroom anxiously and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, has your dragon body recovered?" Do you have anything important to see us? "

The king said with a sigh, "I have an incurable disease this time. This is the arrangement of the Lord. Don't be sad. I have arrived in seventy years of age, and this may be the last moment when I am still alive, and I am about to start my life in the afterlife. "

with that, he turned his head to the prince with difficulty and said to the prince with a sob, "Come to me quickly, son, and let me see you again."

Prince Wald knelt in front of his father's bed and wept bitterly. The king's bedding was almost soaked by the prince's tears. The king's tears poured out like spring water, and other relatives and courtiers present were all in tears.

The king held out a weak hand, stroking his son, and said to him in a trembling voice, "My good son, don't be sad. All this has been arranged by the Lord, and no one can resist it. Everyone is bound to die, and no one can escape. Son, after I die, you should listen to the guidance of the Lord and only do what the Lord approves. Only in this way can the country prosper and the people have plenty of food and clothing. You should remember not to go your own way and let your own temperament drive you to do something that the Lord hates. One thing you must keep in mind is that truth is the highest criterion for doing things. This is my last request to you. Please keep it in mind. God will bless you and help you govern the country. "

Prince Wald listened to the king's instructions and cried, "Father, please don't say any more and take good care of your health. I think you must know me very well. I have always obeyed you. I must remember your teaching. As long as you appreciate something, I am happy and tireless. You are an excellent father and a rare king. Don't worry, I will do what you want. You not only brought me up, but also gave me a good education. Now, I really hope that the Lord can save you from death and let you stay with me forever. In the future, I will definitely remember your advice, because only in this way can I get happiness and be able to embark on the road of truth under your guidance, which is also my greatest happiness. "

when the king heard the prince say that, he was convulsed all over, immersed in the pain at the end of his life. He struggled with all his last strength and said, "Son, if you can keep the following ten traditional personalities, you will be happy in this life and the next. The so-called ten traditional personalities are: when you are angry, try your best to restrain yourself; When you are in trouble, be patient silently; When you speak, be sincere and honest; When you make a promise, you should practice your promise; When you judge others, be impartial; When you have power, be tolerant of others, respect your subjects and forgive your enemies; Forgive those who should forgive, but be kind to those who do, and try to avoid hurting them. In addition, there are ten kinds of traditional characters that you still need to keep seriously. Only by doing all these things one by one can you get the approval of the Lord, and he will also benefit you from the people. These last ten traditional personalities are: your distribution should be fair and reasonable, without discrimination; When punishing, we must master the sense of proportion; When forming an alliance, we should fulfill our obligations; Accept advice; Avoid quarreling with others; Let your people abide by the law; To be an impartial judge ... If you do what I said above, you will win the love of the people of the whole country, and those who do evil will be afraid of you. "

When King Jeyad finished speaking to the prince, he turned his head to the other relatives and ministers waiting for him and said to them, "I have passed the throne to the prince, and all of you will be witnesses. From now on, Wald is your king. You should listen carefully to his orders and instructions. If you don't obey the leadership of the new king, then the Lord will punish you who disobey your destiny in his way. For example, your residence will be damaged, you will be separated from your relatives and you will never get together. Not only that, but your health will also be hurt and your property will suffer great losses. In this way, your enemies will sit by and watch your jokes. Don't you remember the pact you made with me? Now it is your turn to make an alliance with the new king. Today, you and the new king will also fulfill the same Covenant as I said earlier. You must obey his orders and instructions, and you must carry them out, which will be good for him. In the future, if you can keep the principle of getting along with him, then I can foresee that your career will be prosperous and your situation will be more perfect. From now on, Wald is the king of a country, and he will also be your benefactor. That's all I have to say. Finally, I wish our country prosperity and people's lives are rich. "

King Jeyad closed his eyes and looked as if he was dying, but he struggled to hold the prince tightly in his arms with amazing perseverance. Finally, he slowly released his hands and lay there motionless. Finally, he went to another world.

The news of Jeyad's death soon spread all over the country, and the whole country was immersed in grief. According to the royal custom, the prince held a coronation ceremony. The attendants dressed the new king in royal robes, crowns and rings, and sat him on the throne symbolizing kingship. From then on, a new king was born.

after Wald ascended the throne, he acted according to the entrustment of his late father, and governed the country justly and wisely as expected by his late king. Be loved by the people. However, the good times didn't last long. Due to the invasion and temptation of secular vices, King Wald gradually degenerated, drinking and lusting all day, and completely forgot his father's instructions, not to mention the promise he made to his late father. State affairs are no longer so important in his eyes. What matters is eating, drinking and having fun.

The most intolerable thing is that King Wald is so greedy for women that whenever he hears that there is a beautiful woman, he will spare no expense to get her as his concubine. Therefore, the number of concubines in his palace is almost the same as that in the Israeli empire. He ignored the affairs of state affairs in the palace, just mixed in with beautiful women, eating, drinking and having fun. Ministers tried to persuade him in many ways, but he ignored him. He doesn't even look at the documents submitted by subordinates; The people complained bitterly, as if he didn't hear them. When the ministers saw this, they knew that disaster was coming, but they were helpless, so they complained a lot.

Someone suggested, "Let's go and meet Prime Minister Ximas together, and tell him about this and see if he can do anything. He kept the way of the monarch and the minister, and asked him to remonstrate with the king in person, which might make the king turn over a new leaf, otherwise we would suffer. King Wald couldn't resist the secular temptation, so he was captured by him. I hope the prime minister can lead him back from the wrong path to the right path. "

The ministers unanimously agreed to this method, so they made an appointment to meet with Ximas. They elected a representative with good eloquence to tell the Prime Minister Ximas about the current situation of the new king.

The representative said sadly and anxiously, "A wise scholar! Our king devotes himself to beautiful women and is obsessed with wine and women all day long. His actions are not only of no benefit to the country, but also will harm the innocent and kind people. We believe you must know that the fire at the city gate will hurt the fish in the pool! If the king is allowed to fall like this, the consequences will be unimaginable. We haven't seen the king for more than a month, and we haven't received any instructions, even you and other recent ministers are in this situation. The official documents we reported have not been approved for a long time, and the king doesn't care about state affairs and the sufferings of the people at all. If this continues, our country will suffer great disaster. So we discussed it together and decided to come to see you and tell you the truth. I hope you can come up with a good way to save the current situation. Among the ministers, you have the highest status and prestige, and you can be said to be a respected person. It is our blessing to have such a knowledgeable and virtuous minister in our country. Now, you are the only one who can save the king. We implore you to visit the king in the palace, and advise him to obey the orders of my late king before he died, and explain to him the interests involved. If he can accept your advice, turn over a new leaf and stop neglecting state affairs, it will be a great good thing for the people. "

after listening to the stories of the ministers, Prime Minister Ximas knew that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility. He immediately set off and went straight to the palace. In order to meet the king, he also spent a lot of time trying to find someone who is said to have a way to get him close to the king. The prime minister completely ignored the etiquette of the court and wanted to see the king at once. He said to that person, "Good boy, I have something very important to tell the king, and then listen to his instructions. Please take me to the king quickly. This matter is extremely urgent and cannot be delayed for a moment."

but the man was very embarrassed and said, "prime minister, I can swear by the holy Lord, which is really difficult for me to do." For a month, the king forbade anyone to see him, and I haven't seen the king for a long time, so it's even harder to introduce you. However, I know one of the king's personal attendants. He is responsible for the king's daily life and diet. He comes to the kitchen to bring the king food every day. It might be better if you ask him for help. Please wait in the kitchen first, and then ask him when he comes to the kitchen to bring the king food. Maybe he will agree to your request. "

Prime Minister Ximas hurried to the kitchen door and sat there waiting. Soon, the attendant came as expected. As soon as he was about to enter the door, Ximas got up and said to him, "My son, I have something urgent to meet the king in person. Please do me a favor and try to get the king to meet me." As far as I know, the king is in the happiest mood after dinner. I have something very important to see the king, which is related to the survival of the country, and we can't delay for a moment. "

"Dear Prime Minister, please rest assured that I will do as you command."

Seeing the importance of this matter from the Prime Minister's expression, the attendants agreed to the Prime Minister's request without hesitation.

As usual, the attendants brought food to the king's room for him to eat and drink. After the king was full of food and drink, he felt very happy. The attendants seized the opportunity to come forward and told him, "Report to your majesty: Prime Minister Ximas is asking for an audience outside the door. He said he has something important to tell you."

King Wald didn't know what to do at the moment, and it took a long time for his attendants to bring Prime Minister Ximas in.

The attendants were ordered to come to the Prime Minister Ximas immediately and tell him what the king said, and then they took him into the harem. Himas came to the king, respectfully saluted him, blessed him and paid his respects. The king asked, "What's the matter with you so anxious to see me? Is there something big happening outside? "

the prime minister said unhurriedly, "I haven't seen the king's face these days, and I miss you very much, so I came to see if your dragon body is healthy. In addition, I have a few important words to tell the most distinguished king. "

"if you have something to say, just say it." Said the king.

"Your Majesty must know that a young king like you has never existed in history. The great and just Lord is wise and generous. He not only gives you superhuman knowledge and wisdom, but also gives you the authority of the king. I don't think the Lord wants to see you throw away the grace he has given you to others, so your majesty should not go against the Lord with everything he has. Only when you keep in mind the Lord's advice and do what he approves, can you protect the country forever and enjoy a happy life on earth. I say this because I think your majesty's recent behavior is not in line with the will of the Lord, and you have forgotten the advice and oath of the former king, and you no longer attach importance to his warning and teaching. If this goes on, you will no longer cherish the grace given by the Lord and appreciate it with gratitude, so you will lose your mind and do something outrageous, and you will eventually be punished by the Lord. "

The king was very unhappy after hearing this, and patiently asked, "How can you say that?"

"If your Majesty puts national affairs behind him, doesn't care about the sufferings of the people, forgets the Lord's entrustment to you, and only indulges in worldly pleasures and is satisfied with temporary * * *, it will lose great because of small. As the saying goes, the king's primary responsibility is to protect national interests, religious interests and people's interests. I think your majesty should think twice before you act. If you can weigh the pros and cons and come back to the right path, the people will still respect and love you as before, and our country will be prosperous and prosperous. If you are still stubborn and covet trivial and temporary pleasures, you will surely end up like a fisherman. "

"What happened to the fisherman?" King Wald asked in surprise. So Prime Minister Ximas began to tell the story of the fisherman.
