The empress wants to see yifeng in the palace, but he refuses to let her in. He tells her that they have known each other many years and that he does not know why she is always so aloof to him. He asks her to behave herself and says that if there is nothing important, he will take his leave. He says that as the emperors mother, his behavior should be a model to the people. He also says that he rejected her because he has no interest in her. She will love him, he says, and he will make her his toy boy.
