"go and see how the work is proceeding," the emperor told him, "and come back to let me know."
the prime minister was welcomed by the two scoundrels.
"were almost finished, but we need a lot more gold thread. here, excellency! admire the colors, feel the softness!" the old man bent over the loom and tried to see the fabric that was not there. he felt cold sweat on his forehead.
"i cant see anything," he thought. "if i see nothing, that means im stupid! or, worse, incompetent!" if the prime minister admitted that he didnt see anything, he would be discharged from his office.
"what a marvelous fabric, he said then. "ill certainly tell the emperor." the two scoundrels rubbed their hands gleefully. they had almost made it. more thread was requested to finish the work.
finally, the emperor received the announcement that the two tailors had come to take all the measurements needed to sew his new suit.
"come in," the emperor ordered. even as they bowed, the two scoundrels pretended to be holding large roll of fabric.
"here it is your highness, the result of our labour," the scoundrels said. "we have worked night and day but, at last, the most beautiful fabric in the world is ready for you. look at the colors and feel how fine it is." of course the emperor did not see any colors and could not feel any cloth between his fingers. he panicked and felt like fainting. but luckily the throne was right behind him and he sat down. but when he realized that no one could know that he did not see the fabric, he felt better. nobody could find out he was stupid and incompetent. and the emperor didnt know that everybody else around him thought and did the very same thing.
