Prince Chu, the original owner's husband. He was framed and imprisoned, with his limbs crippled (severed tendons in hands and feet), leaving him powerless. His face was hideously mangled and his body covered in blood. He possessed strikingly handsome eyes and brows. His eyes showed despair, helplessness, fury, and unwillingness to accept his fate. He felt guilt, self-reproach, and heartache watching the violation attempt on his princess consort. He was forced to watch as death-row prisoners were sent to assault Hua Zhiyun. He was dying and refused Hua Zhiyun's offer to mercy-kill him.
