Um...well hehehehe...he can kill them off even before there was any son...took revenge on Hou...and as ffyy..for being in his way of happiness
he definitely can and Hou would be first one to go for the tortures he inflicted on him
(I kind of think he already guessed she's not good since there's attempt to murder him....but he just need logic prove for himself at the time...but Hou took the blame at the time...)
yes and speaking of which, before that, what he only knew was that YY felt disgusted when she saw his scars, to her, they're hideous. He didn't know or hadn't seen her darker side yet and so he was trapped by their evil plot, poor Jing, missed that part
.if he's ruthless then he'd not care about the kid's life at all ....I am comparing in thinking ZX avenge XY assasinating who 's reponsible for her death and their families out of rage...?..but that wasn't Jing..and being Jing did not allow him to do those things ...he knew himself ..he will damage himself by doing so as well., that's what I think. and yep the hatred heat maybe continuing surrounding even with all dead..
It seems so easy to just say be ruthless but there are things to consider to, and that isn't really his nature, it's not what TH intended for his character.
That's why XY said she's glad Jing isn't like any of them (she and her family). I somehow feel bad for CX's fate, he was meant to be an emperor and emperors typically end up alone.
