A doctor carrying a medicine chest came out of the room, and a maidservant quickly stopped him, asking, "Doctor, how is Eunuch Yang's illness?"
The doctor said, "It's nothing serious, just a cold. I've already prescribed medicine for Master Yang, he'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Bai Zhiyi asked, "Doctor, are you from the General's Mansion?"
"No, I'm from the Youzhou Medical Clinic. Eunuch Yang sent someone to invite me here," the doctor replied, somewhat puzzled. "Why does this young lady ask this?"
"It's alright now," Bai Zhiyi said with a smile, letting the doctor pass.

That wretched woman will absolutely not dare to disobey His Majesty's orders and will have no choice but to obediently follow us. Once we arrive in the capital, won't we be able to deal with her however we please?"
Yang Yaozu suddenly realized what was happening and exclaimed, "That's right! If this drags on any longer, who knows what dirty tricks they'll come up with to deal with us! Someone, come here!"
A servant entered upon hearing the commotion: "What are your orders, Eunuch Yang?"
"Tell the people in the General's Mansion to immediately burn incense and set up an altar; I need to issue an imperial decree."
