According to JGY, the primary reasons were JGS's empty promises and abandonment of his mother and himself. Here's a rough partial translation of his response when questioned by Lan XiChen: Spoiler: Chapter 106 "It's not that that I was never worth more than one hair of Jin ZiXuan's in his heart […] not that he took back Mo XuanYu, and it's not that he later schemed to undermine me […] Why wasn't this big sect leader, who spent gold as if it was dirt, willing to lift even a finger to buy my mother's freedom? Very simple - because it was troublesome. My mother waited for so many years, in front of me she wove so many forced hardships for him, came up with so many difficult plights he must have been in [to excuse his neglect], but the real reason was only two words: it's troublesome. This is what he said: 'Women with a little education in particular, always think of themselves as a bit better than other women, have a lot of demands and unrealistic thoughts, those women are the most troublesome. If I bought her freedom and she came to Lanling, who knows how she'll tirelessly nag at me. Just let her obediently stay where she is, with her qualifications I estimate she can be popular for some years more, she won't lack for food or clothing for the rest of her life. The son? Ugh, don't mention him.' […] Second brother, as a son I was only worth four words: 'Ugh, don't mention him.' Hahahaha…"
So sad. That's some Game of Thrones level stuff right there. I can't even imagine how horrible it must have been for SiSi to watch her sisters die. It makes sense that JGY would spare her though. He seems to have a long memory when it comes to those who are kind and those who are not...
Wow, that an awful waste of a human being! In contrast, the arrogant and annoying Jin Zixuan is practically a saint compared to him! Perhaps misogyny was rampant in the Jin clan at that time which made Jin Zixuan grow up like that. I guess he gets better since Shijie married him.
It's funny, isn't it? Wei remembers good deeds done to him & repays them all fully with interest thanks to his mother's words. Then there's JGY's way of doing things only sparing certain ppl who didn't treat him like dirt cuz he was the son of a prostitute but if you get in his way to power he'd kill you off in a heartbeat even when you were nice to him (My heart goes to Mingjue here). The only exception being XiChen.
NMJ has such an alpha male vibe. No wonder people use him to make his little bro pay better attention at his studies. I hope the donghua will pay better attention to the two of them, because NHS is the total oposite of his big brother. One is strong as a warrior but the other has the mind of a strategist. I can't wait for the older version of NHS to appear. And more can't wait to be revealed that he is the mastermind that made the big bad expose himself after years without justice.
In the preview of the eighth episode appeared one big, red eye, so I'm positive that the rest of the big turtle will appear too : D
I'll be fine Wei Ying x Lan Zhan Translations + type-set by me https://drive.google.com/open?id=11RymiaEfflVMWXL-b5-i62ho6JzhKRTd
hahaha ... yeah!! just one word 'son of a prostitute' .... you are as good as dead I have no idea if it's new or old version but here the links: http://www.danmeila.com/chapter/20160301/14206.html http://www.luoxia.com/modaozushi/
I feel bad for XiChen. He's got to feel so betrayed and hurt. There's probably some guilt over being the only one who wasn't targeted.
YESSSS! He is SUCH an alpha male and to be one so young as well! Mmmm... Also it proves that while NHS may have been afraid of his older brother, he loved him dearly and was determined to make the one who killed him pay... unfortunately, he didn't care who got hurt in the bargain.
I was trying to put the pieces of my heart together but it shattered again into smaller pieces, Shijie (T^T) Probably one of the many reasons why he secluded himself by the end of the novel Big Brother believed in JGY so much only to end up backfiring
