The lin family is in prison, and Lin says that he has sent food and water to the family. Lin's sister, who is now his wife, asks her father if she should have come back. Lin says he would never give up his family for fear that he would be imprisoned, but his highness says that the conspiracy is clearly a plot. Lin tells her sister that she should stay out of the conspiracy, and she says that her four-year-old brother has no role to play in it. Lin asks her grandmother why she is locked up as well, and her grandmother says that she raised a fine son, but she is being held prisoner for the same reason. Lin and his brother have returned to guard the General's residence, and they have injured Lin by stopping the Grand Court of Revision from raiding the family's house
