Xie Bing and Sanniang had just returned to the hotel when Han Wangfu's trusted aide, Zhang Tai, invited them to meet with Han Wangfu, saying that he had prepared a fine banquet at home to welcome and refresh them.
Xie Bing and Sanniang had intended to eat anyway and were even more interested in seeing Han Wangfu. However, as they were getting ready to leave, Zhang Tai said to Sanniang, "Sanniang, Elder Han's courtyard is rather small, and I'm afraid it won't accommodate so many distinguished guests. It would be best if your people stayed and rested at the hotel!"
