Seeing Yinlu's reaction, Yinyi shrugged helplessly.
"Unless the Crown Prince or the First Prince falls from power, they will not be in any trouble," not to mention that the two major powers outside the palace would not allow it, and the Emperor would not want to cause trouble for himself.
He sighed softly. When it came to these things, Yin Yi was even more upset than Yin Lu.
It's because Yinlu didn't pursue that position, but Yinyi dreamed of it.
There's still a huge gap between wanting and being able to have, so Yin Yi could only tell himself to be patient for now. There's still plenty of time, and he shouldn't reveal his ambition too early.
"Let's go back to the Prince's residence first."
There were some things that couldn't be said on the way, so Yin Yi put his thoughts back.
Yinlu nodded with a gloomy expression. "Go back."
Without further ado, the two brothers led their men back to the prince's residence.
The princes' quarters were still quite lively at this time. Yinlu called out to a servant to deliver a message to the princess in the back courtyard, and then turned around and went to the study with Yinyi.
"Third brother, I feel wronged. Mother once said something that is very true: 'It is not scarcity that is to be feared, but inequality.'"
"If Father Emperor acts this way time and again, the eldest prince and the crown prince will not fare well when they fall from grace."
Everyone was holding their breath. Right now, the eldest prince and the crown prince seemed to be at the height of their power, but how long could this momentum last? Once the emperor had used them and discarded them, the others would definitely be eager to pounce on them and devour them.
Since these two people did indeed benefit from the situation while others couldn't even get a taste of the benefits, the accumulated conflicts make it difficult for them to have a good ending after stepping down.
This is why, in the original timeline, these brothers would kill each other.
Apart from the prince who withdrew from the competition for the throne from the beginning, everyone else understood that the enmity they had formed was deadly.
Would we really be so kind as to let our enemies live comfortably and carefree without fear of retaliation? Absolutely not.
"If you understand this principle, how could others not understand it?"
Even the clueless Yinti could figure it out, so the others were certainly not stupid either.
Yin Yi shook his head, "Father is the Emperor first, and then our Father," so they could not ask the Emperor to consider the father-son relationship, as royal family ties have always been weak.
Yinlu lowered his head and pursed his lips. He was still fiddling with the folding fan he had brought back. He thought to himself that his father still treated them as sons for now, but in a few years, they would be enemies vying for the throne.
Fortunately, I didn't have that idea. I'll just be a carefree prince and live a quiet life.
