The Marquis and grandfather of Swallow Holding Branch, described as the pillar of the Jingyuan Marquisate. He is elderly, leaning against large pillows on a carved rosewood canopy bed, with a gaunt face and sallow complexion, appearing long afflicted by illness. In Swallow Holding Branch's past life, his early death contributed to the tragic end of the main branch. Swallow Holding Branch hopes that with things not yet at their worst, there is still room for maneuver with her grandfather.
