Er Kang is the king's personal bodyguard and he is also in charge of all the soldiers inside and outside of the palace. He is a friend of Yong Qi (the fifth prince). He knows Kun-fu (Kun-fu rules!) and he is also very literate. His father is one of the loyal advisors of the Emperor. He is also one of the favorite young person of the Emperor. The Emperor treats him practically like a son, which makes the Empress hate him (I told ya, the Empress hates practically everyone. She is a really weird lady). Also, he fell head over heels for Zi Wei when he met her. It was like love at first sight.^_^
