343620
10080
,开始假装在工作。他们没有将任何丝绸或黄金放入织布机中,而是将
05:53
it in their own bags but they moved their hands  through the air as if they were preparing Looms  
35
353700
7680
其藏在自己的袋子中,但他们在空中移动双手,就好像他们在准备织布机一样,
06:03
then they worked their machines  making a great deal of noise and  
36
363240
7380
然后他们操作机器,发出很大的噪音,
06:10
capturing much of the Castle's attention  even though the Looms were quiet empty
37
370620
8760
吸引了城堡的大部​​分注意力,尽管 几天后,
06:23
a few days later the king wished to  know how the two Weavers were getting on  
38
383100
6120
织布机安静地空了, 国王想知道这两个织布工过

,任何未能杀死飞蛾的人都可能面临死亡,
07:03
after calming down the king realized that there  were might not just be moths in his wardrobe  
43
423600
7380
国王平静下来后意识到,可能不仅有飞蛾在他的衣柜里
07:10
but mods in his console as well men who seemed  good and wise but in reality were eating away
44
430980
9120
,而且在他的控制台中也有模组那些看起来善良而聪明,但实际上正在蚕食
07:23
at the Kingdom so what better time to send  his Council to view the outfit in progress  
45
443520
7560
王国的人,所以还有什么更好的时间派他的议会去查看正在制作的服装,

463920
9180
首先他派他的部长去检查在河上,牧师自信地走进来,

确信他会毫不费力地看到布料,但他立即发现自己
08:03
standing in front of an empty Loom with the  two Weavers working away on the other side  
49
483660
7080
站在一台空织布机前,两个织布工在另一边工作,
08:11
my God thought the minister can it be  that I am stupid no but in that case
50
491700
9660
我的上帝认为牧师会不会是我?愚蠢的不,但那样的话
08:24
I must be unfit for office dear minister  cried the brothers passing their work thank  
51
504360
10860
我一定不适合担任公职,亲爱的部长哭着,兄弟们传递了他们的工作,谢谢
08:35
you for coming and checking on us come  closer so you can see the cloth better
52
515220
6240
你过来检查我们,靠近一点,这样你可以更好地看到布料
08:44
the minister walked forward pretending to stare  at the cloth tell us do you like this design  
53
524280
8760
部长向前走,假装盯着布料,告诉我们你喜欢这个设计吗
08:53
and what about these colors they spoke for  a long time about the details of the cloth
54
533760
8220
?这些颜色怎么样,他们就布料的细节说了很长时间
09:04
making up technical names for things and asking  what the minister thought he merely nodded and  
55
544560
8700
为事物编出技术名称,并询问大臣的想法,他只是点点头,
09:13
said that he thought they were beautiful and  to make sure they did not realize his lie
56
553260
7800
说他认为它们很漂亮,为了确保他们没有意识到他的谎言,
09:24
he asked for the names of the patterns  and colors so that he might tell the king  
57
564720
8220
他询问了图案和颜色的名称,以便他可以告诉国王
09:33
Oh and before you go said the brothers  just as the minister was living
58
573900
7680
哦,在你走之前,兄弟们说,正如部长还活着,
09:45
could we have more silk and gold we're running  out quite quickly so the minister gave the message  
59
585300
7320
我们可以有更多的丝绸和黄金吗?我们很快就用完了,所以部长
09:52
to the king who gave more silk and gold to the  tricksters which went straight into their own bags
60
592620
9000
向国王传达了信息,国王给了更多的丝绸和黄金给骗子,这些骗子直接进入了他们自己的行李
10:05
satisfied that his Minister was fit for office  the king sent an advisor to check a few days later  
61
605700
8460
对他的部长适合担任职务感到满意,几天后国王派了一名顾问来检查,
10:15
the advisor was just as confident of  his ability to see the magic thread
62
615180
6840
顾问对他看到魔线的能力同样充满信心,
10:25
and when he stepped into the room and saw  the empty Loom he was gripped with panic  
63
625080
7800
当他走进房间并看到空的织布机时,他他惊慌失措,
10:33
if I tell the king the truth I  will surely lose my head he thought
64
633600
6660
如果我告诉国王真相,我一定会失去理智,他想,
10:45
so he made sure to stare at the loom and  spoke loudly of how beautiful the cloth was  
65
645120
8640
所以他一定要盯着织布机,大声说这布有多漂亮
10:54
and how he must tell the whole city about  it the Weavers asked him plenty of questions
66
654600
8160
,以及他必须如何告诉整个城市这件事,织布工问他一大堆假装
11:05
pretending to be deeply concerned about the  quality of the outfit finally asking for more silk  
67
665340
9180
很关心这件衣服的质量的问题终于要求更多的丝绸
11:14
and gold as the advisor was living the advisor  announced the news of the magic cloth to the city
68
674520
8940
和黄金,因为顾问还活着,顾问向城里宣布了魔法布的消息
11:25
and rumors spread past everyone was  waiting excitedly to see the outfit  
69
685860
7500
,谣言四起,每个人都兴奋地等待着看到这件衣服
11:34
so that they might distinguish which of their  neighbors were foolish or unfit for office
70
694200
8040
这样他们就可以区分哪些邻居是愚蠢的或不适合担任职务的。
11:45
finally the king decided that  his mob killing plan could wait  
71
705900
5940
最后国王决定他的暴徒屠杀计划可以等待,
11:52
as he was eager to see the cloth himself he went  to The Rivers room with his console and naturally
72
712380
10860
因为他渴望亲自看到布料,他带着控制台去了里弗斯的房间,自然
12:06
all they saw were empty Looms but  nobody there said a word in front  
73
726300
7500
他们看到的只是空织布机,但没有人在国王面前说一句话,
12:13
of the king the king himself was quiet  shocked when he could not see the cloth
74
733800
9240
当国王看不到布料时,国王本人感到震惊,
12:26
does this mean I am not fit to be king I wondered  but how can it be I have ruled so well all my life  
75
746640
11460
这是否意味着我不适合当国王,我想知道,但我怎么能统治得这么好呢?但
12:38
but I wonder my Council has  always done most of the work  
76
758940
5760
我想知道我的委员会总是完成大部分工作
12:46
and isn't that the job of a king to  be a figure for the people to admire  
77
766500
6300
,而国王的工作不是成为人民钦佩的人物,
12:53
whilst they carefully selected Council does  all the work I must not speak a war of this or
78
773580
9900
而他们精心挑选的委员会完成了所有工作我不能谈论这场战争或
13:07
the kingdom will fall apart so the king  said the cloth looked wonderful and clapped  
79
787080
7680
王国将会分崩离析,所以国王说这布看起来很棒,并拍拍
13:14
the Weavers on the back and told him he would  give them as much silk and gold as they needed
80
794760
8580
纺织工的背,并告诉他,他会给他们所需的丝绸和黄金,
13:27
the rest of the council laughed and  smiled along with him all commenting  
81
807840
7740
其余的议会成员也跟着他笑了,大家都在评论
13:35
on the delightful colors and patterns although  each person seemed to mention a different color
82
815580
8160
这件事。令人愉快的颜色和图案,虽然每个人似乎都提到了不同的颜色
13:47
yes yes you have done and most excellent job  said the king in fact we must hold a parade  
83
827880
9840
是的,是的,你已经完成了,最出色的工作,国王说,事实上,我们必须在那里举行游行,
13:57
there we will show off the new outfit  and afterwards you will be United
84
837720
7140
我们将展示新服装,然后你将成为曼联的
14:08
the tricksters malts fall open what an honor  to be knighted they cried our king is too kind  
85
848280
10440
骗子麦芽酒秋天被封为爵士是多么荣幸啊,他们大喊我们的国王太仁慈了,
14:19
the night before the parade the Weavers  stayed up working burning hundreds of candles
86
859500
6720
在游行的前一天晚上,织工们熬夜工作,燃烧了数百支蜡烛,
14:28
then they pulled off the cloth cut it  with scissors and sew it with needles  
87
868620
7200
然后他们把布料扯下来,用剪刀剪下来,用针缝起来,
14:36
although of course all they were really  doing was cutting and sealing air
88
876720
7680
当然,他们真的都是这样的。
14:48
in the morning the tricksters came before  The King holding up the pieces of invisible  
89
888480
7140
早上,骗子们来到国王面前,把隐形 衣服
14:55
clothing one by one here are your new trousers  my king they said and they helped the king
90
895620
10080
一件一件地举起来,这是你的新裤子,我的国王,他们说,他们帮国王
15:09
into his invisible trousers  
91
909000
3000
穿上了他的隐形裤子,
15:13
here is your new scarf my king they said and  they helped the king into his invisible scarf
92
913740
12300
这是你的新围巾,我的国王他们说,他们帮助国王穿上了他隐形的围巾
15:28
and also they helped the king into his  invisible cape the thread is so light that  
93
928680
8400
,他们还帮助国王穿上了他隐形的斗篷,线很轻,
15:37
you will not even feel it they explained  why it is as light as air the king cried
94
937080
9000
你甚至感觉不到它,他们解释了为什么它像空气一样轻,国王哭了,
15:48
the Weavers took the king in front of a mirror  where he stood completely naked but they looked  
95
948900
8040
编织者带走了国王在镜子前,他完全赤身裸体,但他们
15:56
him up and down as if examining a fine piece of  clothing commenting on how excellent he looked
96
956940
9000
上下打量他,就像在检查一件精美的衣服,评论他看起来多么出色
16:09
oh but there is one problem said the tricksters  someone will need to carry your train  
97
969600
8340
哦,但有一个问题说,骗子需要有人来搬运你的火车,
16:18
so the king ordered some of his men to  stand behind him and carry his train
98
978600
6720
所以国王命令他的一些手下站在他身后并抬着他的火车,
16:29
but of course they were just holding air  the parade began and all the people of  
99
989760
7800
但当然他们只是屏住呼吸。游行开始了,
16:37
the city pushed into the streets and leaned  out of Windows to see the King's new clothes
100
997560
9660
城里所有的人都涌上街道,探出窗户去看国王的新衣服,
16:50
of course their walls really nothing to see  but nobody wanted to admit to being stupid  
101
1010400
9120
当然还有他们的墙确实没什么可看的,但没有人愿意承认自己愚蠢
16:59
or unfit for office so the people cried  out about how wonderful the king looked
102
1019520
8220
或不适合担任职务,所以人们大喊国王看起来有多棒
17:10
finally a young girl saw the king and she could  not understand what everyone was talking about  
103
1030980
7380
最后,一个年轻的女孩看到了国王,她不明白大家在说什么,
17:19
but he's naked she said pointing the king is naked  the little girl's words spread like an illness  
104
1039380
9840
但他赤身裸体,她指着国王赤身裸体说,小女孩的话像疾病一样传播开来,就像
17:31
and like moths to a flame the people all  began to commend on the King's new clothes  
105
1051200
7380
飞蛾扑火一样,人们都开始称赞国王的新衣服
17:39
or the lack of them soon comments turn to louder  and people began to openly make fun of the king
106
1059360
9660
或缺少衣服很快评论就变得更大声,人们开始公开取笑国王,
17:51
it does not matter he thought to himself so the  people of the city are stupid what a surprise  
107
1071420
8760
没关系,他心想,所以这座城市的人们都很愚蠢,这真是一个惊喜,
18:01
I know I look excellent when the parade  was over the king returned to his castle
108
1081080
7800
我知道游行时我看起来很棒国王回到他的城堡,
18:11
to find the Weavers ignite them but the  two tricksters were nowhere to be found  
109
1091700
8040
发现编织者点燃了它们,但那两个骗子却不见踪影,你好,
18:20
hello where have those two gone they had  disappeared the moment the parade had started
110
1100520
8280
那两个人去了哪里,他们在游行开始的那一刻就消失了
18:31
and so the king stood naked in the middle of his  castle never having felt so stupid in his life  
111
1111740
8820
,所以国王赤身裸体地站在他的城堡中央 现在你 觉得他的生活如此愚蠢,
18:41
now do you understand what is this  story about the king is like your boss
112
1121640
7380
你明白这个关于国王的故事是什么了吗?就像你的老板一样,
18:51
he always thinks he's right and he doesn't  listen to anyone but soon he will be in a  
113
1131480
7320
他总是认为自己是对的,他不听任何人的,但很快他就会陷入一种
18:58
situation where he will look like a fool  in front of everyone so don't worry son
114
1138800
9240
看起来像个傻瓜的境地在所有人面前,所以不用担心,儿子,
