Qinglian Chronicles has about eleventy billion named characters, which was starting to confuse me. Here’s an outline of who’s who.
Central Characters
Zhang Qinglian – The Main Character
Gender: Female soul, male body
Abrv: ZQL
Other names/t.i.tles: Marquis Yijia
Originally a modern-day, highly educated, and successful Chinese businesswoman, she died in a plane crash and spontaneously ended up transmigrating into the body of a devastatingly beautiful male official in a world resembling ancient China.
The Original Zhang Qinglian – The Antagonist
Gender: Male
Abrv: O!ZQL
Who the current Qinglian inherited their ident.i.ty, and mult.i.tude of problems, from. Though gone now, most – if not all – of the troubles the MC currently faces are direct consequences of his previous poor decisions, corrupt lifestyle, and general acts of irredeemable evil.
Yao Jinzi – The Male Lead
Gender: Male
Abrv: YJZ
Other names/t.i.tles: Jindiao, Brilliant Sabre
A 17-year-old genius martial artist with an unsmiling face – understandably so, because O!ZQL completely destroyed his life. Acts as the current ZQL's bodyguard. What exactly he's thinking at any time isn't easily determined.
Zhang Residence's People
Hong Feng
Gender: Female
The caretaker and head maid of ZQL's estate. A pretty and generally stoic woman. Seems to have had an intimate past with O!ZQL, but the exact details are unclear.
Xiao Lu

A 13-year-old servant boy. Gets on well with Jinfeng, and is one of the few people who genuinely liked O!ZQL for more than his looks.
Yao Jinfeng
Gender: Male
YJZ’s bratty tsundere younger brother who (very understandably) hates ZQL.
Tian Chun
Gender: Male
ZQL's fatty guard. Has a gambling problem.
Zhu Xianxi
Gender: Male
ZQL's skinny guard. Has a moocher-son problem.
Zi Luan
Gender: Female

Caretaker of O!ZQL’s harem. Actually Xue Yongfu’s little sister, and YJZ’s ex-fiancee. Has plans to marry ZQL for political reasons.

Scholar and former member of O!ZQL’s harem, who now tutors Xiao Lu and Jinfeng.

Parties
Zhongli
The Centrist/”neutral” party. More concerned with keeping the peace than rocking the boat.
Qingliu
Literally means “Clear Stream”. A real political party in the Qing dynasty made of scholars (or something, I’m bad at politics). Might have been referred to by previous translators as “mainstream”.
Waiqi (I misspell this as Weiqi a lot and don’t catch myself, sorry)
The “consort kin” party, as in, the Empress’ immediate relatives. For being the Emperor’s blood family, they sure aren’t very nice. Might have been referred to by previous translators as “outsiders”.
ZQL’s party
I don’t think this one has an official name, but the party members kinda centralize on ZQL.
