Two beggars came to Akbar’s court to settle a dispute. Each claimed the ownership of a particular mango tree. Akbar, wanting to resolve the issue fairly, called Birbal for advice. Birbal suggested that the tree should be split in half and each beggar should be given one half. One beggar agreed, but the other cried out and said the tree should be given to the other beggar because he couldn’t bear to see the tree harmed.

Who did the tree belong to?

One day, all the courtiers from Akbar's court were gathered................. in just one statement. What did Birbal say?

One day, all the courtiers from Akbar's court were gathered in the assembly hall when one of them told the Emperor that all his valuables had been stolen by a thief the previous night.
This shocked the Emperor to his core as the place where that courter stayed was the most secured in the kingdom. The Emperor thought that it is not at all possible for an outsider to enter into the courtier's house and steal the valuables. Only another courtier could commit this crime. He quickly called Birbal to identify the thief.
Birbal thought for a while and successfully solved the mystery by identifying the thief in just one statement.
What did Birbal say?
