After all, for the Royalists: as long as the bloodline of King Kang remains on the throne and lives in luxury, their basic goal is achieved.
The Heir of Prince Kang is now only a little over one year old, even if they really eliminate the Kou family and maintain the political system as a "Dual Monarchic System," the heir still can't govern.
There isn't much difference from the current situation.
Furthermore... Qiu Tu suspects that since the Kou family can undertake such a regicide, wouldn't they negotiate with the Royalist leaders and lure them with interests?
In the end, the most malicious and crucial aspect of this plan is actually time.
Currently, Princess Xi is in the Eighth Sanctuary, and the most loyal part of the Royalists to her have all gone to the Eighth Sanctuary to rescue her.
King Kang suddenly passed away, and for Princess Xi to bring people back, it would take at least 3-5 days.
By then, it would be too late.
