The common people feared that Emperor Yong'an would bring disaster upon them sooner or later. Upon hearing that Emperor Yong'an was gravely ill, they felt a sense of relief.
Emperor Yong'an did not care what the officials and the common people thought of him, nor was he concerned about being labeled as a tyrant or a foolish ruler in the annals of history. He did not regret any of the actions he had taken since ascending the throne. Now hearing that the officials and the common people praised Zhao Yao for his benevolence, he was not only not angry but also very pleased.
Yu Hai felt indignant for Emperor Yong'an, feeling wronged on his behalf, and made a couple of disparaging remarks about Zhao Yao in front of Emperor Yong'an. As a result, he was harshly reprimanded by the Emperor and then punished to kneel.
When Zhao Yao arrived with Sun Doudou and Tong Xi, they saw Yu Hai kneeling at the door and quickly asked what had happened.
