9. The minister-In ancient times a city named Kampilyapur had a king named Brahma. His queen Chulni one night saw dreams that augur the birth of a Chakravarti and in due course gave birth to a son. The prince was named Brahmadatt. King Brahma died when Brahmadatt was still an infant. At the time of his death king Brahma had given the responsibility of managing the affairs of the state to a friend Deerghaprishta, king of a neighbouring kingdom, till his son became major. After the death of king Brahma, Deerghaprishta and Chulni fell in love. King Brahma had a minister named Dhanu who was very able, wise and faithful. It was he who looked after the up bringing and education of the prince. When the prince matured, minister Dhanu discreetly told him about the illicit relationship between Deerghaprishta and Chulni and warned him about the impending danger to the kingdom. Brahmadatt was infuriated. But minister Dhanu advised him to resort to cunning rather than anger.

In consultation of minister Dhanu, Brahmadatt first decided to warn his mother. One day he put a crow and a cuckoo in the same
cage and took it to her mother. Showing the birds he said in anger
filled voice-"I will punish those who are found guilty of cross
breeding like these birds."
The queen was filled with fear and told everything to
Deerghaprishta. He reassured her saying that she should not give
heed to a child's comments.
Some days later pointing at a beautiful female elephant of good breed and an ugly elephant cohabiting together Brahmadatt told both Chulni and Deerghaprishta-"If I find some one having such illicit and mismatching relationship I will punish them with death."
He once again gave similar warning showing a swan and a stork.
After the third warning Deerghaprishta also became apprehensive. In order to remove this impediment to their lascivious
