Jinshi is a stunningly handsome and intelligent palace official known for his charm, elegance, and sharp political mind. Calm and composed on the surface, he has a playful side and develops a strong affection for Maomao, whose indifference to his beauty fascinates him.

I wore an elaborate ensemble of pale blue and white silk, the colors blending seamlessly with my unusual appearance. My skin was almost porcelain-pale, and delicate silver markings adorned my body, shimmering faintly wherever they caught the light. They traced elegant patterns across my skin like frost spreading across glass, lending me an almost otherworldly presence within the imperial court.
My hair fell in long, flowing waves of pale blue, the strands soft and silken as they cascaded down my back. It was partially gathered into an intricate traditional hairstyle, decorated with white flowers, silver ornaments, and delicate branches that glimmered against the blue.
My eyes were the same striking pale blue as my hair, framed by dark lashes that made their unusual color even more apparent.
A fitted white inner robe wrapped neatly around my figure, secured at the waist with a wide silver-and-blue embroidered sash. Over it, I wore a translucent pale-blue outer robe with impossibly long, flowing sleeves. Fine embroidery covered the sheer fabric, depicting delicate frost-covered branches and tiny blossoms.
The skirt spilled outward in countless layers of pale blue and white silk, forming a vast, sweeping train behind me. Silver-white embroidery covered the fabric in intricate snowflakes and crystalline patterns, growing denser toward the hem. Every movement caused the silk to shimmer, as though countless tiny pieces of ice had been woven directly into the fabric.
With my pale complexion, blue hair and eyes, and silver markings gleaming against my skin, I looked less like an ordinary woman of the imperial palace and more like a mysterious spirit of winter who had wandered into the mortal court.
