Summary
As the reigning monarch and leader of the Imperial Family in the Country of Li, the Emperor presents a striking figure with short black hair, pink eyes, and a long, majestic beard that enhances his regal appearance. He typically maintains an expressionless demeanor, though he occasionally offers a faint smile, remaining aloof and largely closed off regarding his emotions. His view of his consorts as mere political tools has led some to perceive him as cruel, and he can be inconsiderate, such as when he feigns concern for one consort while standing next to another. Despite this, he acts as a devoted father, frequently visiting the Jade Palace to spend time with Lingli and converse with Gyokuyou. Maomao characterizes his preference for women as favoring those who are "ripe and voluptuous," a choice that partly serves as a rebellion against his father, who was notorious for only sleeping with children.
