00:13Tia, today Jim and I had a fight.
00:19Oh, that's bad. What happened?
00:23I thought Jim is your friend.
00:25He was. But today, he did not support me on the poster competition concept
00:32I wanted to present to my teacher.
00:39He thought that it might be too easy.
00:42He is my friend.
00:44He should have agreed with me instead of behaving like Tom and Ben
00:49who are always mean.
00:51Was he right?
00:55Yes, he was.
00:57The idea was too easy.
00:59But still, he should have agreed with what I was saying.
01:05Oh, Emperor Tofu! That is very bad.
01:09Why are you calling me Emperor?
01:13Because you are behaving like this Emperor from my story.
01:18Once upon a time, there lived an Emperor.
01:22He was not particularly smart or intelligent.
01:27But because he was the Emperor, people started to respect him.
01:32He was a very good man.
01:34He was a very good man.
01:37He was a very good man.
01:39He was a very good man.
01:41He was a very good man.
01:43He was a very good man.
01:45Because he was the Emperor, people feared him
01:49and always agreed with whatever he said.
01:55They used flattery to avoid his wrath and win his trust.
02:05Your Majesty, as always, you are right.
02:09Your Majesty, you have made the wisest decision possible.
02:16Because the Emperor was so foolish
02:19he never understood the difference between an honest compliment and flattery.
02:27He thought that his public loved him and that he was the best.
02:33He lived in his ego and vanity.
02:37One day, his head minister, who was truly a wise man
02:42disagreed with him in open court.
02:53Your Majesty, it is my humble suggestion
02:57that you hear the public's troubles before increasing your loyalty to the Emperor.
03:03Hearing the public's troubles before increasing the tax burden further.
03:09Doing so will make you a more beloved king.
03:14What are you saying, head minister?
03:17Do you mean that our wise king is not good enough?
03:22The foolish king, who was blinded by all the flattery
03:26and not used to people disagreeing with him, also agreed.
03:34Yes, head minister, how dare you doubt my decision.
03:39As a punishment, I remove you from the position of head minister.
03:55Disgraced by the events of the day, the head minister went home sad.
04:04When he reached home, he saw that his nephew, who was a tailor
04:09had come to visit him from another town.
04:13Just like his uncle, the nephew was a wise man.
04:20The head minister told him what had happened in court.
04:26Don't worry, uncle.
04:28One day, Emperor's vanity shall come to an end.
04:33The next day, the nephew went to see the king.
04:38He pretended to hold a piece of garment in his hand
04:47and said to the Emperor
04:51Your majesty, I have just returned from my travels around the world.
04:57When I was in the palace, I saw that the king was wearing a garment.
05:03When I was in old market of Persia
05:06I saw this beautiful piece of cloth and immediately thought of you.
05:15I have brought it with me to make a new robe for you.
05:20It is the most beautiful cloth ever made.
05:26The emperor could not see the cloth
05:28but his ego did not allow him to confess it.
05:33He looked at the remaining ministers and asked them
05:36what they think of the cloth.
05:39The ministers couldn't see the cloth either
05:45but decided to lie to the emperor again.
05:50It is very beautiful, sir.
05:54Yes, I agree.
05:56It will look fantastic on you.
06:00Though the king could not see the cloth
06:06he thought that since his ministers thought
06:09that it would look very nice on him
06:12he would go ahead and order for it.
06:19Yes, it is beautiful indeed.
06:23Go ahead, Taylor.
06:25Make the most beautiful robe that you have ever made.
06:30I will wear it for my birthday parade which is ten days from now.
06:36Yes, your majesty.
06:39You will have it on your birthday.
06:48And so the fateful day came.
06:51And so the fateful day came.
06:55It was the emperor's birthday.
06:58The tailor went to the palace early morning
07:01pretending to hold a robe in his hand.
07:05Throughout, he behaved like he was carrying something beautiful and delicate.
07:18Here is your robe.
07:20Since it is a delicate material
07:23it is best not to wear anything under it.
07:28The emperor agreed and took off his underclothes.
07:35The nephew went on to pretend as if he was helping the emperor wear the robe.
07:41Just then, the king's two favourite ministers came into his chambers.
07:50They were shocked to see the emperor stand like that without any clothes on.
07:59How does my robe look, ministers?
08:04You look so handsome, your majesty.
08:08Majesty, you are looking very nice.
08:13Still unable to see the robe himself
08:16the king believed what his ministers had told him
08:20and ordered the parade to start.
08:24The whole kingdom had gathered for the emperor's birthday
08:29and had lined up on the streets to see his new robe.
08:33But just as the king appeared in public without any clothes on
08:38the crowd fell silent.
08:42Everybody was wondering what had happened to the emperor
08:47but no one dared to say a thing.
08:52They just stared at him as he made a complete fool of himself.
09:01Till once more the crowd gathered around the emperor
09:06till one small child called out to his mother.
09:12Look mom, the emperor is not wearing any clothes.
09:20No longer able to contain itself
09:23the entire crowd burst into peals of laughter.
09:29They held their stomach and pointed at the emperor as they made fun of him.
09:36The emperor looked at the guilty faces of his ministers
09:46and sad face of his head minister
09:49who was upset to see the king being made fun of.
09:53The emperor understood how foolish he had been
09:57and what his mistake had been.
10:01He fired the two ministers
10:07and reinstated the head minister.
10:15From then on
10:17when anyone gave him a compliment
10:20he humbly listened to it and absorbed it only if it was genuine.
10:30With the honest guidance of his head minister
10:33he went on to become a truly great emperor for his people.
10:41Ouch! Tia
10:42I think I had become the egoistic emperor.
10:46I owe an apology to my friend Jinn.
10:52What do you think?
10:54Yes, and you also need to learn to accept feedback
10:59and not get carried away by compliments.
11:04Yes, Tia
11:05but I must wish you good night for now.
11:09Good night, Tofu.
11:16Tofu
11:46you
