    Solomon, the wise king, was renowned far and wide for his wisdom. His fame had spread across all the realms, reaching even the distant shores of Sheba.

    Intrigued by the tales of Solomon’s wisdom, the Queen of Sheba decided to test his wisdom herself. She thought long and hard to devise a test that would be worthy of the wise king.

    She came up with a plan and ordered two garlands to be made. One was to be made of real flowers and the other of artificial ones. But both looked exactly the same.

    She then embarked on the long journey to Solomon’s court. The journey was arduous, but her determination to test Solomon’s wisdom outweighed any discomfort she felt.

    When she reached Solomon's court, she was taken aback by the opulence and grandeur. The wealth of Solomon’s court was unparalleled, yet it was his wisdom she was there to test.

    She presented her challenge to King Solomon. Holding up the two garlands, she asked him to identify the real from the artificial. A hush descended over the court as they awaited Solomon’s response.

    King Solomon, unfazed by the challenge, calmly studied the garlands. He remained silent for a few moments, his sharp eyes scrutinizing the identical garlands.

    He then ordered the windows of the court to be opened. The courtiers were confused but obeyed the king's command. A gentle breeze swept into the court, carrying with it the sound of buzzing bees.

    The bees, attracted by the scent of flowers, flew straight to the garland in the Queen's right hand. Their actions served as a clear indication to Solomon and the court.
