The eldest son of Qi Zheng, a nine-year-old boy. He is described as having a delicate, jade-like face. He is disciplined and formal in his manners, bowing respectfully to his father. He is intelligent and perceptive, having eavesdropped on Qing Luan by scaling the wall. He deeply resents Qing Luan, believing she has bewitched his father and has ulterior motives. He is protective of his younger brother Qi Yuchen and resolves to drive Qing Luan out of the house. He feels like an outsider when he sees his father smiling at Qing Luan and Qi Yuchen together.
