Answer 2

Answer:

When the rich merchant pleaded innocence, the king did not let him go and said he was accountable of his father's sin. The merchant escaped from being executed this is because the minister of the king was also a fool, and he suggested him to bring a fat man for the stake as the rich merchant was too thin to fit for the stake.
