The next morning, Ming Ju tells his brother that the princess has just been sold to a branch of the Bailian sect in the city of ba-zhou. Ming Ju says that he will go to the palace immediately to find out the identity of the woman who sold the princess to the sect. When Ming Ju asks if the princess is okay, the brother replies that she is fine. He tells Ming Ju that the girl insulted him time and time again to teach her to kneel down. He says that Ming Ju is his brother's friend and that they grew up together. He adds that he is willing to be honest that he was afraid that he would hurt Ming Ju, so he came to the city alone. He asks Ming Ju not to mention the woman to him again, and Ming Ju agrees to take care of the princess first.
