The scene shifts to the minister's room, where the minister, Duolin, is talking to the king. Duolin is worried that the king will take away the painting that he has brought with him from the palace. He asks the king if it is okay for Duolin to ask yunfu to draw another painting for him. The king tells Duolin that it is not proper for a man to ask another man to draw for him, and Duolin tells the king that he is not asking the wrong man, but that he must be asking the right person. The minister says that he wants to know who the man is, and the king tells him to leave the painting to him. He then asks Duolin if he has seen the painting, and he tells him that he had seen it, and that he would like to see it again. He says he will leave it to Duolin and then he will ask others to find it for him
