Follow-up of the Emperor’s New Clothes

The emperor was naked, shaking off his fat body, walking with dignity in the sunshine. At this time, an innocent voice came over: "He really has no clothes on!" The emperor trembled, as if he was afraid of the cold. After a while, all he could see was his head, sweat glistening on his body, and his face turned white and red. There was a burst of greenness, and the steps staggered a little. After a while, the emperor straightened his back again, bulging his belly, and walked forward grandly with bigger steps. Do you want to end this embarrassing scene as soon as possible, or do you want to show your dignity? We don't know.

Soon, the emperor returned to the palace. He was already wet and ready to take a bath. As soon as the emperor entered the bathing room, he prepared to take off his robe as usual, but he could not find the button to unbutton the robe. He was about to ask the servant to help him take off his clothes, but then he thought: "I can't take off my clothes, that is, I can't unbutton my clothes. Then am I not a stupid and incompetent emperor who can't see the magical clothes?" No, no. , Isn’t this a joke for the people of the world?” The emperor said to himself.

After the emperor took a bath, he ordered the soldiers to wash the clothes made by the swindlers separately. He also ordered that he must go to see the laundryman wash the clothes in person. The soldiers relayed the emperor's orders to the laundresses. The laundry workers were all very scared, fearing that the emperor would see that they were not washing clothes and would be fired. But there is a kind and honest little girl among the laundry workers. She knew clearly that the emperor wanted to see that the clothes they were washing did not exist, but she did not dare to report it directly to the emperor. The kind and honest little girl thought about it, and then the emperor came.

As soon as the emperor arrived, the soldiers brought a big chair for him. The laundry workers soon began to wash the large robe ordered by the emperor. Except for the kind and honest girl, everyone else "washed their hands and the air" seriously. Suddenly, the emperor asked the kind and honest little girl next to him: "Do you think this dress is beautiful?" The little girl looked at the emperor and smiled, and asked: "Your Majesty, are you willing to become a stupid person? "The emperor said with certainty: "Of course not!" "That's right, those two liars are taking advantage of people's weakness to deceive you!" "What else can those two liars say? People are both stupid and incompetent. If this is true, then wouldn’t there be no one in the world who is qualified? In fact, this is a scam, a big scam!” said the little girl. As soon as the little girl finished speaking, the emperor jumped up from his chair, his eyebrows curved like the moon, his eyes narrowed with joy, and he clapped his hands. It seems to say: "Finally, someone who is not afraid of being resigned is willing to stand up and tell the truth."

When the two liars learned that their lies were exposed, they wanted to escape from the palace, but the sky was closed and the French Open was closed. Unable to escape, he was thrown into eighteen levels of hell by the emperor. But the kind-hearted emperor forgave the ministers because they were also afraid of losing their positions. And the little girl who dared to tell the truth, the emperor gave her many gold and silver treasures. The emperor also told the people not to use bad means to defraud money in the future and not to do things that go against their conscience.

This incident passed like this, and people gradually forgot about it.

This is an unpleasant and stupid thing to do. And the emperor also got rid of many bad habits like wearing new clothes and ignoring government affairs... The people of this country also live happily.

2 Ever since the emperor was naked and was pointed out loudly by a child, the emperor's body had already been covered with goosebumps from the cold, and he was very angry. He knew that this matter must not be spread. He had lost face by being naked, but as the king of a country, he could not lose the dignity of the king, otherwise he would not be able to manage a country.

As for the future, what should I do? With that, the emperor straightened out his fat belly and drove back to the palace as if nothing had happened.

What was very strange to the people of the country was that for a long time from now on, the emperor did not severely punish these two liars and kill them in public as people thought. They were entertained even more generously with delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

The cold winter has arrived, heavy snow has fallen on every street in the city, transparent ice edges have bent the thick tree trunks, and the howling wind has blown the entire field. It was at this time that the emperor summoned the two liars in the palace.

"Oh, my dear knights, how are you?" the emperor said with a smile,

"Thank you for taking care of us, your Majesty, we are fine." They replied in unison.

"You made me such a beautiful costume and let me have a satisfactory summer. In order to reward you, I decided..."

"Your Majesty, you are doing it. "Two pieces." One of the liars reminded in a low voice,

"Well, two pieces are better, just one for each person," the emperor said to himself. Suddenly he felt like he was just waking up from a dream, and said with a smile: "In order to reward your merits, I have decided to appoint you as my inspectors from today on. You will patrol the streets of the city once a day and wear the clothes you made for me." "The coat",

"No! No! That is your Majesty's exclusive product, and little people cannot wear it." The two swindlers came up with wisdom in their hurry,

"Recently, some citizens have disobeyed the management, and there are many swindlers. As long as you wear my coat, they will not dare to call you swindlers," the emperor said with concern,

"Okay, now you put on my coat and exercise your authority"!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" they begged,

Under the personal supervision of the emperor, the two liars put on beautiful "coats" and followed the emperor in warm clothes. Walked out of the palace.

"I have prepared a grand inauguration ceremony, will you not attend it?" the emperor asked with concern,

"No! No!" the two liars said in unison.

In less than ten minutes during the inauguration ceremony, the two naked liars, already with runny noses from the cold, were holding their chests with their hands, stomping and jumping, moaning and whining.

"Are these two clothes warm?"

"Warm...warm, warm...warm...warm", the two liars answered tremblingly.

From then on, an interesting thing happened in this city. Citizens in the whole city could see it twice a day, morning and evening: in the streets and alleys, two people naked and naked. The man kept running.

"Look! These are the emperor's new clothes!" The kid who told the truth looked at the two liars flying past and said with a smile.

"But he's not wearing any clothes!" A child finally shouted.

"Oh God, listen to this child's innocent voice!" his father said. So everyone spread the child's words.

"He really doesn't have any clothes on!" In the end, everyone said so.

The emperor trembled a little, because he seemed to feel that what the people said was right. But he thought to himself: "I must complete this parade." Therefore, he put on a more haughty look, and his ministers walked behind him, holding a non-existent train in their hands. There was an expression of helplessness invisibly.

When the emperor walked into the hall and sat on the throne, he felt a chill and thought: "Am I really not wearing any clothes? Why do I feel colder and colder? I really "Have you been deceived?" So he asked: "My dear people, I have heard all your comments. Then you should find evidence and let me understand. If you don't have evidence to prove it to me, then those who are privately involved." Anyone who says I have no clothes will be put to death; if you find evidence to prove that I really have no clothes, there will be a heavy reward."

People were silent because no one could prove it. Just when everyone was silent, a little boy walked out from the crowd. He boldly walked up to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I can convince you that my statement is correct." Everyone was very surprised and looked at each other. Focus on this little boy.

The emperor also felt strange and thought: "It's a big joke that this little kid can prove it.

So, he smiled and said: "Kid, if you fail to convince me, your life will be in danger."

The little boy puffed out his chest and said, "Your Majesty, please prepare six boxes for me." Take off your clothes and give them to me, and then invite the two tailors to the main hall. You'll understand after a while. ”

The emperor did as the little boy said and ordered six boxes to be placed on the table. He took off his clothes and gave them to the little boy. The little boy put the clothes on the table in front of people. In a box, he made a small mark, which only the emperor and he knew, and then mixed the order of the boxes and asked the two tailors to open these boxes and find them out. The emperor's clothes. "The little boy said.

The two liars opened the box and stood there blankly. One of them pretended to be confident and walked up to take clothes from a box casually. He came out, laughed and said: "It's really simple, the clothes are here."

The little boy laughed loudly, picked up one of the boxes and said to everyone: "If the emperor and I remember correctly, the clothes are placed in the box with a '1' drawn on the bottom of the box." , the clothes are placed here. If we are fools and can't see it, why can't the two tailors find it? You knitted the clothes, but you can't even see it? How can this be explained? "

The two swindlers were about to sneak away while the little boy was talking, but they were caught by the guards. The emperor opened the box they wanted to take away and found the gold threads he used to make clothes for the two swindlers. Lying intact in the box

The emperor suddenly realized that he had executed the two hateful liars. Seeing that the little boy was so smart, he rewarded the little boy with one thousand taels of gold. But he said: "I don't want the money, as long as the emperor promises me one thing. The emperor readily agreed, "I just hope that the emperor will stop paying attention to appearance in the future and focus on managing the country's political affairs." "The emperor thought for a while and felt that the little boy's words made sense, and nodded in agreement.

From then on, he managed the country very well. The country was peaceful and the people were peaceful, the weather was smooth, and the people lived a happy life. The king in people's hearts became more and more beautiful...

It is said that when the emperor learned that the two weavers were lying to him, he was so angry that his teeth itched. He vowed to kill these two weavers. The weaver found them and chopped them into pieces

Let's look at the two liars again! They got a lot of gold from the emperor, so they came to another city. They bought a very beautiful house, ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, and wore the best clothes. They became the richest gentlemen in the city, but they only spent the money every day and did not get back any of it. So, two months later, They were so poor that they had to sell their houses to make ends meet.

One day, they learned that the king of this city was going to marry a queen. One of the two liars had an idea and said to the other: " Let’s make a fortune with this king again! We can make wedding clothes for them. "Okay, we'll still use that method." "So the next day, they came to the palace, and there was a medal given to them by the previous king, saying that they could weave the most beautiful cloth, and stupid people can't see it. This king is not as stupid as the previous one. He knew the conspiracy of the swindlers, so he took advantage of it, gave them a lot of things, and asked them to start work immediately. While the two swindlers were secretly happy in the workshop, the king called everyone to a meeting, told everyone about the matter, and said His plan...

The next day, the king sent a minister to explore the situation. The minister already knew what was going on. He came to the two liars and pretended to look at them seriously. The wedding day was approaching, and the two liars worked hard on the empty loom. Finally, the night before the wedding, they "made" the dress. p>On the morning of the wedding, the two liars brought a bunch of air to the king. Unexpectedly, the king had already put on another set of clothes, turned around and said to them: "I decided to wear this suit, but yours A piece of clothing is not bad, so be it! You wore this dress to the wedding.

He pointed at one of them: "Just wear it!" "The liar was dumbfounded, but had no choice but to put it on and go to the hall. Everyone looked at it and laughed. Only then did the two liars realize that the king wanted them, and they ran away without even taking the gold. ……
