Summary

The king's question.

A fool had a brother who was a bishop. The bishop was summoned by the king to answer a question. The fool took the bishop's clothes and his horse, and went in his place. He was asked how much the king was worth. He replied that he was worth less than Christ. Then the fool told the king that he knew what he was thinking. The king gave him money and food.
