Travel in the far east
Mueller is traveling with his wife and mother-in-law in a far east country. At a place of honor his mother-in-law makes a careless remark， which the native people take as an insult to the royal family.
Mueller is dragged off to court with his wife and mother-in-law and are sentenced to corporal punishment. Each of them are to recieve 50 lashes on the rear end with a cane. But because the royal family doesn't want to appear hostile to foreigners， they grant the guests in their country a wish beforehand， as long as it is able to be fulfilled.
Mrs. Mueller is first.
"What do you wish for yourself？"
"I would like a pillow bound on my rear end before the lashings."
"Okay， that shall be granted to you."
Mrs. Mueller has the pillow bound to her rear end and receives her punishment. But because the pillow is too small and the executioner also hits her back a couple of times， she receives a few blows.
Next it is Mueller's mother-in-law's turn.
"What do you wish for yourself？"
"I would like a pillow bound on my rear end and a pillow bound on my back before the lashings."
"Okay， that shall be granted to you."
The mother-in-law receives her fifty lashes， but hardly feels the pain through the pillows.
Then comes Mueller himself.
"What do you wish for yourself？"
"I have two wishes. Do you want to fulfill them for me？"
"Because you are a guest in our country， we want to fulfill your wishes for you， as long as they are reasonable."
"I would like 100 lashes instead of 50."
The executioner is surprised， but recovers again right away and replies， "Yes， that is a pious wish， it shall be granted to you. And what is your second wish？"
"I would like to have my mother-in-law bound to my back."
