BR 1-17: The Emperor and the Nightingale

I read "The Emperor and the Nightingale".

In China, there was a emperor. He always wanted the best of everything. His palace was very luxurious. His palace was mede of fine white bricks, and the roof was solid gold. The garden was full of bright flowers with silver bells. That's sounds is good.

But a bird's song is the best. It is Nightingale. The emperor's gardener saw her everyday. Her song made him smile.

One day the emperor was reading the book. Then he knew Nightingale. He wanted it. He ordered his survants to find it. His survants try to find it, but they can not. Finally they could find her, and begged her to come to the palace. She was allowed and went to the palace. The emperor was interested in her. He likes her songs, so he listens to her song every day. But he caged her. She did not sings a song. The emperor was sick. But the Nightingale found he was sick, and sings to him. His condition was better and better. And he planted tree near the palace.

One day, the Nightingale came back the tree. The emperor listened her songs everyd day.

This story is so interesting!
