Wax lion

Once the king of Iran sent a lion in the cage and said that if it opens without opening the cage, then it will be assumed that the navaratna can not be in the world of horses. Akbar asked all the courts to open the lion without opening the cage, but all failed. Finally Birbal was called. Birbal took a hot bar and started scarring the lion, and in a while the wax lion melted, Akbar was very happy to see Birbal's wisdom. Because of Birbal, Akbar's standing in front of the king of Iran remained.
