Now that he thought about it, there was a reason why the chief of the imperial guards would betray the old emperor. He had a bloodthirsty master who killed his subordinates. Who would have the misfortune to remain loyal to him?
They might as well feed their loyalty to the dogs, right?
“In that case, we can enter the palace and take that position?” he asked softly as he looked at Eldest Brother Yan.
“Not yet.” Eldest Brother Yan shook his head.
There was a significant difference between rebellion and abdication.
He did not want to be branded with the infamy of leading troops to force the emperor to abdicate and killing his father. Even if he ruled with kindness and allowed the people to live and work in peace in the future, he would still have a bad reputation in the end.
He did not care about the judgments of future generations, but he still felt a little uncomfortable. Besides…
“Is it because Prince De’s maternal family hasn’t been settled yet?” Xia Junfeng asked.
Eldest Brother Yan shook his head.
Prince De’s maternal family was nothing. With the current forces he had under his control, they would not cause any trouble.
“Then why?” Xia Junfeng didn’t understand.
“Because…”
“Because of Prince Luoyang.”
Before Eldest Brother Yan could finish speaking, he heard a familiar voice outside.
They looked in the direction of the voice and saw Qian Jiyun holding An Jiuyue’s hand as they walked into the courtyard.
“Mother! Uncle Jiyun!”
Qian Yizheng and Qian Yirong immediately put down their little brother and pounced on An Jiuyue.
“Be careful.” Qian Jiyun grabbed the backs of the children’s collars with both hands to prevent them from tackling his wife. “You’re already big children. It’s time to be more mature.”
“Got it, Uncle Jiyun.”
Qian Yizheng and Qian Jiyun were forced to stop. They were a little disappointed that they could not even grab a corner of their mother’s clothes.
However, they were still very obedient to Qian Jiyun. Besides, they had always been mature. In their eyes, they were not big children but adults.
“Mother’s stomach…” Qian Yirong noticed that his mother’s stomach was a little bulging. “Did you eat too much?”
He was puzzled. He had never seen a woman with a bulging stomach in the academy, so he bluntly asked if his mother had eaten too much.
It was a little big. He wanted to reach out and poke it to see if he could flatten it.
“Pfft!”
Eldest Brother Yan, who had stood up and walked over, could not help but laugh.
They thought she ate too much? The two children were really interesting.
“Rong’er, your mother is pregnant with a little brother,” he reminded them.
“Little brother?”
Qian Yizheng and Qian Jiyun exchanged glances, then gazed at their mother’s stomach, their eyes sparkling.
“Nonsense. It’s not a little brother. It must be—”
“Little sister, little sister.”
They were not the ones who said that. It was An Yilu who had chased after his two brothers.
He did not know anything about babies. He was influenced by Zheng’er and Rong’er because they often mentioned wanting their mother to give birth to a younger sister.
Hence, he, who was still immature, was very persistent about having a little sister.
“Mother, little sister.”
The child clapped his hands and walked over to An Jiuyue with his chubby legs.
