Short Story of king

The weather was very pleasant. There were all around clouds on sky. In such a pleasant weather the king decided to stroll on river and started strolling sitting in a boat with his special courtiers. There were also few slaves in his boat. 

The king decided to stroll on river and started
strolling sitting in a boat with
 his special courtiers.

Everybody sitting in the boat seemed very excited except that slave who was phobic of water. That slave was continuously weeping while sitting in a corner of boat. When the king looked at that slave he asked his companions: "Why is this slave weeping? Doesn't he like to stroll in river?" One of the courtiers replied: "My lord! This slave is weeping due to fear. He has the fear inside heart that the boat may not sink in the river."

When the intelligent person heard about
 the slave he said to the king:
"Respected king!

There was a very intelligent person among those courtiers. When he heard about the slave he said to the king: "Respected king! If you allow me I can finish his fear right now.” At listening to the request the king immediately allowed him. At getting permission the person ordered other slaves present in boat to give dives to that specific slave in the cold water of river.

The slaves are giving dives to that specific slave
 in the cold water.

His order was obeyed at once. When the weeping slave had taken few dives into the river he was pulled back from water at the gesture of the wise man. The king got surprised to see that the crying and weeping of that slave had stopped after coming out of the river. Now he was travelling in the boat quietly. At that the king called his wise courtier near him and asked him: "We want to know that why did you order to give dives to that slave?

Now the slave is enjoying strolling peacefully.

Also tell that why did that slave stop weeping as he came out of water." The courtier replied: "My lord! I ordered to give dives to him because till the time any person would not hurt he would not value ease. This slave feared to be drown because he had not shown courage to go inside river. But when he bore the pain of diving into water he got the value of travelling in the boat. This is the reason that now he is enjoying strolling peacefully.
