The Empress of Great Zhou Kingdom. She comes from a powerful military family with domineering father and brothers. She initially planned to substitute inferior items for Feng Qianqian's betrothal gifts but was outmaneuvered by the Emperor into providing twenty carriage-loads plus one hundred thousand taels of silver. She is concerned about her maternal relatives monopolizing power and potentially endangering the Crown Prince's future reign. She has a daughter named Wan'er whose dowry she was reluctant to sacrifice.
