This room is not very large, and the layout is quite simple. There is a magnificent screen depicting embroidered mountains and rivers in front, and a Grandmaster's Chair placed rather casually. Next to it, somewhat incongruously, is a rectangular tea table, and underneath are two rows of Grandmaster's Chairs and a few desks.
When Duan Rong followed Zhu He inside, three people were already seated in the two rows of Grandmaster's Chairs in the room—two men and one woman.
As Zhu He entered, the three immediately stood up, but their eyes quickly focused on Duan Rong.
Zhu He went straight to the screen, sat down casually, and gestured with his hand to the three, saying, "Please sit." Then he turned his head to Duan Rong and said, "You sit too."
Duan Rong quickly sat in a chair towards the back.
