That's the adviser telling stuff about himself which won't convince the king, even if it
is the truth. Bear in mind the king is dead set on not believing the adviser so the latter needs to say something the king can't refute but, at the same time, avoid drawing his wrath.
There is one solid truth in this whole tit for tat... (There! A definite clue!)
I was afraid I'd murdered the thread
