The monk tells the prince that his highness has made the people suffer a lot, and that they can never return to their kingdom. The monk says that he and his followers have come to thank the prince for his kindness. He says that women can get education in the kingdom, but that it is not appropriate for women to manage household affairs. He asks the prince if he has any other reason to call him chuxuan, or ordinary monk. The prince says that the monk is preaching buddhism, but he has to learn to respect others. He invites the monk to walk with him, and the monk agrees. He wonders why the monk came to the kingdom to preach Buddhism from far away, and wonders if the monk's aim is only to build temples. He then asks the monk what "five mental obstacles" mean, and he gets the answer that women are "secular," "demanding," "cowardly," and "troubled."
