The Mingde tells the Mingde to stay and guard the palace. Mingde asks why Mingde is angry, and Mingde answers that he has shown Mingde his true self. He asks if Mingde has sent someone to investigate his identity, and if so, Mingde says that Mingde will have to pay for it. He also asks if the Mingdes stomach is sick, and he says that he will stand guard at the palace so no one can find out about it. The Mingdes says that there is a tiger in the hunting ground, not in the palace, and that if he had not held the tiger back, the tiger would have left the palace safely. He says he will distract the tiger so that he can go and find Mingde and Zillah.
