He has become increasingly favored since the new emperor ascended the throne and is currently overseeing a major unsolved case. He is known for his dedication to duty, always punctual and never leaving early. He has remained faithful to Feng Wenyu for over twelve years, never taking a concubine even when his mother begged him. However, he has grown cold and distant toward his wife, dismissing her attempts at connection with indifferent and mocking remarks. He refuses to believe Feng Wenyu is truly ill when she falls sick.
