One day, Curdken and the Princess got into a fight and in a fit of rage, Curdken went to the King and declared, “I don’t like this new girl that you have assigned to help me. I think some very strange things always happen around her.” The King replied, “All right, let her take the geese out today and this time, I shall follow her and see what she does!” That afternoon, when the Princess was walking the geese, the King followed her.
Seeing that she was indeed a very nice and sweet girl, the King decided to have a chat with her. “Tell me a story that is close to your heart,” the King asked the Princess. She replied, “I wish I could, but I am under oath never to speak of it to anyone.” Realizing that the Princess was in some trouble, the King said, “Why don’t you tell the story to that large boulder there? That would not be breaking your oath!” The Princess did so and without her knowledge, the King overheard the entire tale of the Princess.
That evening at the great banquet, the old King recounted the tale of the maid who was pretending to be the Princess and then asked, “If you were in my place, what punishment would you give the evil maid?” Without realizing that the King was actually referring to her own story, the maid replied, “Why, such an evil person should be flogged and then banished from the Kingdom, your Majesty!”
