This Emperor was very vain and could think about nothing but his clothes. He had wardrobes and cupboards full of clothes. They filled his spare bedrooms and upstairs corridors of the palace. The courtiers were worried that the wardrobes would begin to appear downstairs and in their chambers. The Emperor spent hours every morning getting dressed. He had to choose his outfit, preferable a new one, and the shoes and wig to go with it. Mid-morning, he invariably changed into something more formal for his short meetings with his councillors and advisors. He would change again for lunch, and then again for a rest in the afternoon. He just had to change for dinner and them again for the evening! He kept all the weavers, tailors, cobblers and silk merchants of the city very busy and very happy! News of the Emperor spread to distant kingdoms and finally came to the ears of two very shady characters. “Could we?“ they asked themselves. “Could we fool the Emperor who loves new clothes?“ “Let's try,“ they decided. They left their homes and traveled to the Emperor's city. there they saw the many shops selling clothes, shoes and fabrics. For, if the Emperor dressed finely, so too did his couriers. The two travelers went to the palace along with many other tradesmen hoping to sell their wares to the Emperor. They asked to meet the Emperor. “We have something very special to show him,“ they told the Chamberlain. “That's what everyone says,“ said the Chamberlain. “Ah, but his is magical,“ said one, “We have invented a new cloth by using a very special and secret method.“ 。
