The Emperor Lives Longer than His Children

Once upon a time, there was a emperor who dreamed about losing almost all of his teeth. So he summoned two most famous exegetes to explain the meaning og his dream.

After analyzing, First exegete told the emperor that he would lose all of his children. The emperor disliked the meaning and think that the exegete trying to curse him. Later he was ordered to be executed to death.

The second one told the emperor that he will live longer than his children. The emperor was happy with this meaning and gave the exegete with bars of gold.

The second meaning is the same as the first one. The differences is the second one tells better. This is a good story about communicating ideas to people without giving any negative meanings.
