Once (从前) there was an old king. He liked to hear lies (说谎) very much. Because he felt very
excited for that. "If anyone could tell me the most wonderful lie in the world, he could marry my only
daughter." The king said. So many people from different places came to the king and told him a lot of lies. He always said, "It's not a good lie. I would not give my daughter to you." One day a young man came to
the king. He fell in love with his daughter. The young man took out an old piece of paper from his
handbag and said. "Your father borrowed one million (百万) dollars from my grandpa before he died.
He wrote this for my grandpa and told us to take back the money from you." The king looked at the
piece of paper and on it he could see some words: "Dear Mr Blien. I have borrowed one million dollars
from you, but I'm not able to pay it back. Ask my son or my grandson to pay you the money some day
after my death (死)." Now the king didn't know what to do. " If I say it's a good lie, I must give him my
daughter." he thought to himself. "But if I say it's not a lie, I must pay him the money." In the end he said,
"It's a lie, a well-made lie." So the young man married the old man's daughter.
