My fourth riddle. I wasn't able to get it:
A king wants to fire his first minister. He summons him and presents him with two folded pieces of paper, and tell him: 'In one of these papers, it says 'Stay', and in the other, it says 'Go away'. Whichever you pick will decide your fate'.
The first minister is sure that both papers have the words 'Go away' on it. How will he do to keep his job?
