Half Sun, Half Shade

Half-Sun-Half-Shade

One day, Tenali happened to pass a harmless comment on Krishnadeva’s sense of humour. But Krishnadeva was no fool. He got very angry and ordered him leave not only the court, but also his capital.

Tenali was terribly hurt but could not do anything about it. So Tenali left. But the king could not do anything without him. He wanted to call him but he didn’t know his whereabouts. Nobody else also knew where he was. One day an intelligent Saadhu (saint) came to his court and told him how to search for him. Now the king did as the Saadhu said to him. He announced that he would give one thousand gold coins whosoever would come to his Court in half sun and in half shade. Next day, a villager came carrying a string cot over his head and claimed the money. He said, “I am in half sun and in half shade.” Krishnadeva understood that this man couldn’t do it himself. On interrogation he confessed that Tenali suggested him this plan. The king was very happy to hear this. Immediately he called Tenali and they had a happy reunion.
