One of the Seven Hates is that China general has killed his father and grandfather, the others are just their trouble with their mongolic neighbours. For e,g, one of them is that he wanted to annihilate the Jehol tribe and the Jehols refuged in the China land, the Chinese generall asked him to let them live.
That's the so-called Chinas bias to the Jehol in the Seven Hates.
