The tsar had a daughter of unparalleled beauty and extraordinary intelligence. Many grooms came to ask for her hands, but none of them could compare with the mind of the princess. And then the king announced in all lands that he would give his daughter for the one who puzzled her with three riddles that she would not be able to solve. Heard the shepherd about the unusual princess. "What kind of miracle lives in the royal chambers? he thought. "What if I outsmart it and take it as my wife?" The shepherd sat on his horse and went to the palace. He wanted to drink water. He stopped at the well, scooped up water. While drinking, the horse ate a loaf of bread. "There is one mystery," thought the shepherd and rode on.In a dark forest he lost his way. To find the way, he began to look closely at the trees: from which side the moss grows. I saw and thought: "There is a second mystery!" And he went on. Looks: the hunter is aiming at the hare. "There is also the third riddle!" - the shepherd was delighted.Many days passed before he reached the royal palace. - I arrived, good king, you have a daughter to match! "My daughter?" the king was surprised. "Many wanted to marry her, but they did not have the intelligence they needed!" - And I'll try! The princess did not even look at the shepherd. "Well, make your own riddles!" - He speaks. - The first riddle: the bread ate the horse. No matter how much the princess wondered, she could not solve it.- I do not know! - He speaks. - Bread ate a horse, my princess, this is so: I had a horse, I deserved it for many years of work. Once he ate bread from my bag, and the bread was poisoned. So my poor horse died - it turns out that he ate his bread. - And here is the second mystery: deaf and blind, and show the way. I thought the princess, I thought and again I could not solve it. "These are trees, princess," answered the shepherd. - We in the woods on the trees know where the north, and where the south.
"There is a third mystery: the meat escaped, and the iron remained in place." No matter how much the princess was racking her brains, she could not solve this riddle either. "The hunter was shooting at the hare," the shepherd says. - The hare ran away, and the hunter with the gun remained in place. Whether the king wanted or did not want to, but gave his daughter for a simple guy who was smarter than noble bridegrooms. That's the end of the tale, and who listened to the fellow !, do the main thing qualitatively
