THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES

THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES
Long ago, there lived an emperor who especially liked wearing new clothes. He was always thinking about he’ll wear the new clothes every day. When the people asked after him they were told: the emperor is in the dressing room.
One day, two cheaters came. They spread to the world they could weave the most beautiful clothes. Having heard this, the emperor thought: This is wonderful! If I wear the magic clothes, we’ll see who is not ignorant or foolish. Good! So the emperor called the cheaters and gave them a lot of money to make it quickly. The two cheaters arrived. They pretended to weave until the midnight. But nothing was on the loom. They pretended to be busy and take gold from their pocket. The loom was empty without a thread on it. The emperor wanted to know how things were getting on., so he assigned an honest minister to watch them. The minister arrived. He saw them very busy . The minister thought: Am I dreaming so that I can’t see it? He walked to the loom and tuned it. But it was still empty. He began to worry. Then, the two cheaters pointed at the empty loom and said: Look! How nice it is! In order to disguise, he was ignorant , the minister said loudly: Yes! Beautiful!Again after several days, the emperor called another minister to watch. The minister could not see anything on the empty loom. He thought : Why am I so ignorant , I can’t see the cloth? So just like the first minister he reported to the emperor. Emperor, the cloth is so nice ! The emperor wanted to wear the new cloth soon and he decided to go see it. He saw the two cheaters working around the looms, but the looms were completely empty. Why? The emperor thought: I can’t see anything. It is so strange. Am I a fool? Impossible!
The emperor pretended to look carefully at the cloth and said: Look! How nice it is! The ministers saw nothing but they said: Yes it is so beautiful! Next morning, they held something and said to emperor: Look! There are the new clothes for you! So , they had the emperor stand in front of a mirror and take off his clothes. He also turned his body toward the mirror. The minister said: a perfect fit! How nice! Wonderful!
The procession began. All the ministers touched the ground holding the clothes. The people, standing along the street said: Oh! The clothes of the emperor are so nice! It is wonderful! Because nobody wanted say they couldn’t see anything . However, a little boy saw the emperor and he said: Oh! The emperor has nothing on! Yes, the boy said it was true .The emperor indeed had nothing on. The emperor began to tremble because he thought what people said was right. But he didn’t want to know that it was wrong. So he walked arrogantly. And then, the minister follow him and held the pretend robe.
