Once there was a king. He liked writing stories, but his stories were not good. People were afraid of him, so they all said his stories were good. One day the king showed his stories to a famous writer. The writer said his stories were too bad and he should throw them into fire. The king got very angry with him and sent him to prison(监狱). After some time, the king set him free(释放). Again he showed the writer some of his new stories and asked what he thought of them. After reading them, the writer turned to the soldiers(士兵) at once(立刻) and said, "Take me back to prison, please."
