As a disciple of the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, Yuzhen enjoyed a very high reputation in Konoha. He walked toward the Hokage Office with the Hyuga brothers.
The Anbu nearby were sensible enough not to interfere.
So when Yuzhen and the Hyuga brothers carried the paralyzed Samui into the office...
