Zhenshi

Status: According to some versions, Zhenshi belongs to the imperial family. He may be either the son or brother of the current monarch. In one key scene, it is revealed that the concubine Ado gave birth on the same day as another influential woman in the palace, and that the future emperor was also born on the same day. This suggests that Zhenshi is the result of a secret line of succession or a substitution.
His character combines external attractiveness with inner tension. He can be friendly, courteous, even playful, but deep down, he is a man with insecurities and an inferiority complex. He considers himself weaker than his "older brother" (the emperor) and is incapable of achieving the heights expected of him. Therefore, he compensates for this with his appearance and influence: his beauty and status as the emperor's child (or brother) give him power.
Interests - he tends to be controlling: he wants to know what's going on in the harem, who's doing what, who's betraying whom, etc. On the other hand, he's genuinely interested in Maomao and, to some extent, admires her.

Height: about 181 centimeters.
Hair - long, dark purple.
Eyes are pink-lilac or obsidian (depending on the version).
The facial features are delicate, somewhat “feminine”, which creates the image of a “beautiful eunuch”.
The physique is strong, there is physical endurance and martial arts skills.
The Zhenshi has access to the wealth of the palace, the resources of the emperor, receives orders directly from the monarch and is able to give instructions in the harem himself.
