After Dodo leaves, sangui-wu arrives at the capital. He explains to the minsters how he knows Dodo. He tells them that the two men are good for nothing, and that they should not get angry. He says that he knows that tian probably does not know Dodo's real identity. He asks chengen-wang to fill him in on the matter, and tells him that he is not trying to spread the rumors. He adds that he has asked xinjia-chen to tell him what he thinks of Dodos proposal, and he says he is against the parley plan. He also says that there are conflicts between Dorgon and Taiji-hong, but that they are manchus, and dorgon still fights on their behalf. He thinks that the credibility of the words of dodo is too low, and says that Dodo is just here to "make a mess." He tells chen that they can just pretend to agree with his conditions. .
