He summoned the best fortune tellers of Bagdad and asked them to tell him how many years he would live. The first one said twenty years, the second thirty and the third one fifty years. Taimur Khan had all of them executed, cut their heads off. Then he summoned a famous astrologist, asking the same question. The astrologist knew what had happened to the fortune tellers and out of fear said one hundred years. The Kahn said: “Those before you died because they had not wished me enough, you will die because you are lying.” And he cut his head off, too. §Then, he remembered a trickster Juha lived in his palace. The Khan called Juha to his room and asked him: How long will I live?
