Why we should't trust anyone blindly



Once upon a time, there were two swindlers who were always in search of new targets for them to cheat. Once they heard about an Emperor who always used to spend a lot of money on lavish clothing, and he always did so at State expense. The swindlers decided to deceive the Emperor. So they met the Emperor through his ministers and gave him the offer to weave a magic cloth. On inquiry of Emperor, the swindler told him that they can weave a suit which is visible to only wise persons. No fool can see this cloth. Emperor was very much surprised and he told his ministers to give a lot of money to the weavers to make such cloth for him. The Emperor's order was obeyed and the weavers started their job. The weavers took a few days to pose that they are very busy in their job but in fact, they were doing nothing. Many times the emperor visited the looms but he couldn’t see the cloth and the looms were empty but he always pretended otherwise to avoid being thought to be a fool.



Finally, the day came when the weavers announced that the emperor's suit is ready. Now they made the emperor wear the suit which in reality was nothing to wear. But the emperor admired the weavers that what a splendid suit they have made for him. The fact was that the emperor was wearing nothing and was naked but he pretended so that people may not call him a fool. Similarly, all the people who were seeing the king without anything wearing also admired the suit so that they might not be considered fools.

The weavers/swindlers took their reward and flew away. Thereafter a child saw the emperor in the same suit, which means naked, and shouted that the emperor is not wearing anything. Then the emperor and other people realized that the weaver have deceived the emperor and took the reward of their desire.
