The king and his son arrive at the palace, and the king tells his son that the prince is a "mean man" who has been trying to frame him. The king says that he has taken his son to see the palace to reflect, and that there are only guards there, so he can do nothing about it. He says that the king is in his prime and that he will live a long and happy life. He tells the king that it is time to hand over to the new king, but the king says he has chosen the same day as the coronation of the emperor. He explains that his sister, Lady Luo, has just died, and everyone in the palace knew about it, but nobody dared to mention her death because it was taboo. He asks the king if his sister's death would benefit anyone more than the death of the second prince, who is furious at the king for having framed him.
