Once upon a time in some far-off kingdom, a king summoned three of his greatest ministers and gave everyone a bag. He then asked them to take a walk and stuff the bags with fruits. He did that to test the truthfulness of his ministers.

The prime minister was serious about the king’s order and worked on gathering the finest fruits and filling up his bag. But the second minister worked effortlessly and collected a blend of good and rotten fruit in his bag.

The third minister was completely at variance with the two ministers. He stuffed the bag with dried leaves and dirt. His purpose was to deceive the king by making an impression that he did what he was supposed to do. He had nothing in his bag.

They all returned to the king’s court with their bags. Without asking what they’d gathered, the king instructed every minister to be sent to an individual prison for three months.

The kind of food they will be eating is what each of them had gathered in their bags. 

The Prime Minister was delighted because he had enough amount of good food. He had nothing to worry about. The second minister was concerned because half of his food was filthy. It wouldn’t last as long as he was in prison. The last minister was scared because there was nothing to eat in his bag. He was careless and slothful in executing the king’s orders.
