The next morning, the Governess complains to the Emperor that she has lost her temper. She says that he has lost his temper because he has been busy working on the state affairs. The Governess accuses the Emperor of being arrogant and rash. She also accuses him of having sent a spy to spy on her. She asks the Emperor why he did not know that she was in love with a man named Shen zhi. The Emperor tells her that he does not know about it. She tells him that she does not want to let the man know about her love for him because she is afraid that the man will be jealous. She then tells the Emperor to forget about her and to release her from her relationship with the man.
