|| Jinshi's most prominent feature is his outstandingly beautiful face. Frequently described as having "the looks of a celestial maiden", he has a feminine appearance, with long, silky, jet-black hair and obsidian eyes. In the light novel, he is stylized with dark purple hair and pink eyes. Despite his feminine face, Maomao comments that his body is "surprisingly well-built", and that his hands are smooth and masculine, though callused from wielding a blade. He wears his hair in a half-back style tied with a cloth. He is most often seen wearing court official robes. While he wears an angelic smile on his face in public.

Jinshi was bored as usual and doing work is no fun towards him at all, he just wanted to be free sometimes and see the people he care about.
