Some notes:

8. Not an idiom. It is a four-character word coined in a costume drama. (According to Tang Ho it is a common expression.)

E. The original text in 韩诗外传 should be 子欲养而亲不待也.

J. It means 'leave the reactionary camp and cross over to the side of progress'. Often used to describe someone leaves the enemy and joins (surrenders to) 'us' (from the narrator's point of view).

L. For me 白手起家 is more often heard. 白手兴家 seems to be Cantonese. Here it can only be 白手兴家, for in question 16 起师问罪 is used very seldom (it is even not in an idiom dictionary).

O. I think it should be understood as 'sentence to (问) capital penalty (斩)'.

T. 轻重缓急 is more often heard.

Y. Another version gives 海不厌深. Here it can only be 水不厌深 due to question 16.
