Once, in King Akbar's Kingdom, there lived a young boy named Yusuf. Yusuf's life was miserable. Because, everyone who stared at Yusuf for just 1 minute could have bad luck for the day. This was believed by everyone.
Nobody liked to talk to Yusuf because of the bad luck. One day, The news reached Akbar's ears. He called for the young boy. He humbly requested Yusuf to stay in Akbar's palace. The next morning, Akbar sat beside Yusuf and stared at him. The next movement, a messenger rushed to the court and cried" Jahampanah, Queen is feeling unwell.' "no doctors could cure her..". Hearing this, the King rushed back to the Queen's chamber.
He sat beside her for a day. Next day, When the Queen was a lot better, Akbar walked into the Court. When he saw Yusuf sitting in the bench, the King burst out in anger. "How dare you make my Queen unwell.... I order! Push this boy in the prison !!!.
Then, Birbal, who was watching all this, murmured something vigilantly into Yusuf's ear. "Huzoor, If you say that Queen was feeling unwell just because you saw my face then, Can I say that I have the received this punishment after seeing your face ? .'
The King realized his mistake. He apologized to Yusuf and sent him home with a bag of gold coins.
