He sent its fruits to many kings.
'We have never eaten such delicious fruit. Send annually. Our friendship will continue. ”
The king was amused.
A famous scholar came to the royal court. "What do you think is the most rare thing anyone can do?"
“The mango tree in the palace garden produces very sweet fruit. If it produces bitter fruit, I consider it a rare act. ”
The scholar replied, "It is not a rare deed, but a simple act. Leave the palace garden under my charge.
The king could not be trusted. "The palace garden will be your responsibility for three years from now. You must fulfill what you said. Otherwise, your body will not survive," he said.
Three years passed. The scholar brought a lot of mangoes to the royal court.
"The king! These are the fruits of the tree you spoke of. Taste."
The king took a bite of fruit from it. Its bitterness was unbearable.
Surprised, he said, “O scholar! The fruits you gave me are the fruits of my tree. How did you get the taste of it? '' He asked.
''O King! I planted bitter herbs around the mango tree. They are spread over the roots and leaves of the tree. Because the environment was bitter, the fruit of the tree was also bitter. A good person is a bad person if he contacts the evil one. ”
'' Isn't my mango tree the oldest way to tasty fruit? 'He asked with regret.
“Make the environment of the mango tree good again. It will produce good tasty fruit in three years, ”he said.
The amiable king sent him many gifts.
