Once upon a time, there was a fox who went out every day to hunt for prey in order to feed his stomach. One day, as usual, he went to the mountains to forage, and finally he was half full. At the end of the day, he was so tired that when he returned to his nest in the evening, he met another fox. The two foxes had nothing to do, so they chatted. They soon talked about the difficulty of hunting to satisfy their hunger. The fox said wonderfully:

"For a while, I couldn't catch any prey for three whole days, and just as I was dying of starvation, I came across a wild donkey by chance, what a narrow road! I rushed over desperately and fought the wild donkey to the death. In order to survive, I tried my best to bite the belly of the wild donkey, and finally bit its belly, ate its heart, and thought it tasted great. After a full meal that day, although I didn't catch any prey for three days after that, I didn't feel hungry at all."

After listening to the fox's words, the fox was envious of it and thought, "When will I try to eat a wild donkey heart?" After thinking about it this way, he actually did not eat or drink for a few days, so that he could keep his stomach and eat a wild donkey heart. However, it backfired, where is the wild donkey? There is no shadow at all! A few days later, the fox was dying of hunger. It turned out that it was quite good. His physical strength and mental head were gone. He didn't have the strength to climb out, so he had to lie down in the nest and wait to die.

At this time, two hunters went into the mountain to hunt and found a wild donkey, but when the wild donkey saw someone, he ran as fast as he could. The hunter chased after him desperately, and he chased after him for a whole day, but failed to catch him. The hunter was not discouraged, and went to chase again the next day. Seeing that he was about to catch up, in order to prevent the wild donkey from running away again, one of the hunters shot an arrow with a fork, which hit the wild donkey in the heart. The wild donkey was seriously injured and ran desperately. When he ran to the fox's nest, which was waiting to eat the wild donkey's heart, the injury was too serious. There was too much bleeding, and he fell to the ground at once and died. The hunter also chased after him, and when he saw that the wild donkey was dead, he wanted to pull the arrow out. He pulled hard, only pulling out the shaft of the arrow, but the arrow was folded in the wild donkey's heart. Since it was getting late, the two hunters went to rest under a nearby tree, and when it was dawn, they dragged the donkey down the mountain.

That night, the fox in the nest was so hungry that he could not bear it, so he slowly crawled out of the nest with all his strength, hoping to find something to eat and maintain his life. It crawled out of the nest, looked up, and its eyes lit up, thinking that it was dreaming: Isn't this the wild donkey of his dreams?! There is no way out of nowhere. When he wants to eat it, he can't find it, but when he is desperate, he delivers it to the door! At this time, the fox didn't know where the strength came from, and saw that it rushed to the wild donkey desperately, and bit hard towards its belly, breaking the belly of the wild donkey. After tearing it open, the fox burrowed into the belly of the wild donkey, one to the east. The west searched for the wild donkey's heart, and finally, it found the wild donkey's heart. It was very happy, opened its mouth, and swallowed the wild donkey's heart whole, without chewing it, it swallowed it into its stomach. However, it did not know that the hunter's arrow was still stuck in the wild donkey's heart, but the arrow was firmly stuck in its throat this time. It wanted to swallow it, but it couldn't swallow it. It wanted to vomit, but it couldn't spit it out. At this point, the fox realized that he was in great trouble. It was really at stake, so he said to himself with deep emotion:

"It's all my fault. I used to have a harder life, but as long as I'm diligent, I can still live. Why am I not satisfied? I shouldn't go beyond Allah's allocation to extravagant possessions that don't belong to me. Be content, contentment can make you happy, otherwise, you won't end up in this self-inflicted end!"

After telling the story of the fox and the wild donkey's heart, the minister said to the king, "Your Majesty, this story clearly warns people to be content in everything and not to be greedy. Because of your kindness and generosity, Allah will reward His Majesty with a successor to the throne, which is gratifying. We sincerely hope that the prince will live a long life and enjoy eternal happiness. Happy!"

The third minister finished speaking, and the fourth minister went on to say: "Your Majesty, Allah has high requirements for the monarch of a country. He must not only be kind-hearted, but also be a man of many talents. He must have high attainments in philosophy, law, politics and other disciplines; in words and deeds, he must treat civil servants and generals equally. The common people are treated equally, and rewards and punishments are clearly defined; he must have a broad mind, be tolerant of the faults of his subordinates and the people; he must reduce the burden of the people as much as possible, and protect the lives of the people with all his might. Property and interests in all aspects; and he must also keep his word and not lose faith in the people. Only by doing this can he become a truly happy person in this life and in the next life; only by doing this can he win the support and love of the people, and the people are loyal to him, so that he can make the country rich and strong, and the enemy will not dare to attack him, so the country can be peaceful and peaceful. Allah will appreciate the king for this, and the king will also be strong because of the wealth of the country. Society is stable and sincerely grateful to Allah. On the contrary, if the words and deeds of this monarch are not as I said, but a tyrant who brutally oppresses the people. Extravagant desires. If he does all kinds of evil, then his actions will destroy his own happiness, and not only that, but the people will suffer with him. In this way, the end of the king will be the same as that of the king who abused the wandering prince. "

"Abuse of the stray prince?" asked the king, "what's the matter? Tell me!"

At the urging of the king, the minister began to tell the story of the tyrant and the wandering prince.
