The legitimate eldest daughter of Li Guan, prefect of Enwen Prefecture. Seventeen years old, naturally fair-skinned with delicate and refined beauty, described as like a small jade Guanyin. Her birth mother died of illness years ago. Three months ago she was drugged at a Poetry Gathering and woke up beside Wen Chen, which ruined her reputation. Her father Li Guan was utterly disappointed, slapped her, and has largely ignored her since, though he forced her to marry Wen Chen. She lives in Guining Courtyard under the control of her stepmother Chen Shi, who deliberately withholds charcoal and lamp oil. She is sharp-tongued like her deceased mother, beautiful, resilient, and secretly suspects her stepsister Li Wanshu tampered with her drink at the gathering.
