Vasilisa Mikulishna

A prince joins into the party of a royalty to collect taxes. When he is invited to sit with the guests and party he insists the taxes should be payed. As the royal boasts about his riches, implying the prince has "nothing to brag about". When he explains he has no need, and in the process shows how his riches, clothes, skills are superious. Even the smarts and beauty of his wife. Insulted, the royal throws him into prison, to see "how his wife would be able to outsmart him". As his wife receives the news of her lover being imprisoned, she goes out with determination and wits.
