Shen Yunying's husband, the Emperor's own nephew. Known as the capital's most eligible bachelor. Full of ambition but delayed in entering officialdom due to five years of mourning. Initially appeared gentle and proper, visiting the Rear Courtyard only on the first and fifteenth of each month. Secretly cold and calculating, chose Shen Yunying because she was quiet and sensible. When he discovered her showing affection to another handsome young man, he snapped a Wolf Hair Brush in his hand.
