Imperial Investigator of the Longyi Guards, 21 years old. Born into the Xie family of Jiangzhou, orphaned young, adopted by his uncle Xie Zhengze. He appears charming and refined with jade-like face and phoenix-shaped eyes, but carries deep darkness and ferocity within. He acts recklessly and boldly, taking over the murder investigation with authority, surprising Qin Ying who expected him to lie low at this stage.
