T0120. The Answer to Everything Is "No"

A scheming courtier brings his son to court every day, hoping for a royal appointment. Birbal comes late one day and the courtier makes his move, asking Akbar to teach Birbal a lesson by saying no to every request. Birbal arrives, makes apologies, and Akbar rebuffs him. Birbal realizes he is saying no to everything. Birbal then asks Akbar to appoint courtier's son: NO. Akbar is delighted that Birbal outmaneuvered his rival.
