In the Tang Dynasty, an official(官员)in Yunnan wanted to show his respect(尊敬)for the Emperor Taizong. He sent a man named Mian Bogao to take some gifts to the emperor. One of the gifts was a beautiful swan(天鹅). Mian had to travel from Yunnan to Chang’an. It was a long way. Mian took good care of the swan because it was a very expensive gift at that time.
One day, Mian passed by a river. He wanted to let the swan drink some water. But as soon as he set the swan free, it flew away! Mian just got a feather (羽毛)of the swan. Mian was worried.
