Quick wittedness

One day, emperor Akbar desired to eat sweet and delicious mangoes. He ordered his soldiers to get few mangoes to his repose building.  While he was eating and enjoying the taste and flavour of the delicious mangoes, few funny and weird thoughts cropped up in his mind. So, he sent message asking Birbal to meet him right away. Once Birbal joined him, the emperor gave few mangoes to Birbal to eat. While both of them were eating, emperor Akbar put his mango seeds in Birbal's plate instead of his plate. Birbal noticed the emperors action, however, he continued to enjoy the mangoes pretending innocence. In order to make fun of Birbal, Akbar said, "It seems you are too hungry. See, how many fruits you ate", showing him the seeds on Birbal's plate. Birbal immediately replied with modesty, "Its true that I am hungry. However, not as much as you are. You ate the mangoes with out even leaving the seeds". Akbar was amused with the response. He appreciated Birbal's presence of mind and for conveying the truth in a nice way.
