The people said that the king should listen to the advice of his councillors , priests , doctors , and soldiers in answer to the second question.

Quick Scoop: What this means

In the story “Three Questions” (Class 7 English), the king asks who are the most important people to listen to. Different people in his kingdom give different answers.

  • Some said councillors were most necessary, so their advice would matter most.
  • Others said priests were most important for spiritual and moral guidance.
  • A few chose doctors , because they save lives and keep people healthy.
  • Others said soldiers were the most necessary, as they protected the kingdom.

So, in short, the people did not agree on one group; they mentioned all four: councillors, priests, doctors, and soldiers.
