Male lead, the tyrant emperor of the Jingnan Kingdom. At sixteen he assassinated the emperor, killed his father and brothers, and ascended the throne, stabilizing his rule through sheer force. He is described as having perfectly sharp features—brows like sharp swords, eyes like a hawk's, nose bridge like a distant mountain—but his aura makes him look fierce and abusive. He is tall with a robust physique. He suffers from splitting headaches. In the original novel he was a love-hate antagonist who fell for the Mary Sue female lead; in his second life he wreaks havoc. He was poisoned/numbed after being slapped by Wen Qitian, causing his body to go limp.
