In the dream, the emperor tells qiuxing to throw away the poison but not to worry about it for two years. He also tells him to take another half-dose of the poison as soon as he's gone. The emperor tells the boy that he'll be okay soon. He'll infuse power into him, and the boy will be fine. The dream ends with the emperor's majesty asking the boy if he believes in the emperor or not. The boy says that he thinks the emperor must have some kind of relationship with the family. The king asks the boy why he tried so hard before to reverse the family's sentence. He says that the preview got him thinking that there was some relationship between the general family and the emperor. The monk asks why the emperor tried to undo the sentence before the preview. He thinks that if the emperor knew that someone was going to support the rebellion, he would inform the emperor, and he would be able to join the rebellion. He wonders if the monk would do the same if he knew that the emperor was planning to support a rebellion.
