One principality was ruled by a selfish and cruel Prince. First of all, he always thought about himself, and not about his subjects. He was not touched by the complaints of the townspeople; he sent their written requests into the fireplace and laughed at them. There was a lot of injustice in his kingdom, rivers of tears flowed, the rich oppressed the poor and took the last of the treasury. In the same country there lived a young man with his mother. He worked all day, feeding not only himself and his mother, but also all the hungry people who did not have money to buy food. He provided shelter in his small house and often gave away his last for the journey. Their paths crossed and as a result an amazing event occurred that would change one of them. The prince gives Kholop privileges, and Kholop enters his service. this is version 2 of the work.
