Shen Jingchen is the youngest son of the Shen family’s main branch. He was only seventeen when his eight elder brothers died in battle. Though he is devoted to military strategy, he has no desire to serve in government. Patient and steadfast, he values love and loyalty. At first uncertain and passive, he later rises to the occasion through a sense of duty and the bonds he forms with others. He combines an iron-fisted approach with a gentle heart, eventually ascending the throne as emperor and adopting the era name Jinghe.
