Concubine Tao was sitting quietly aside. Only when Emperor Rongcheng mentioned her name, she smiled slightly at Wen Ranran.
Xia Lishuang was also stunned. She took a deep look at Concubine Tao and understood what her father meant.
"My son understands!"
What he said was so confusing that many people didn't react, but they all knew what was going on and didn't ask any more questions.
This family dinner was a harmonious one. Concubine Tao took a few sips of the fruit wine, and Wen Ranran quietly followed her out as an excuse to change her clothes.
Behind Yipin Tower is the moat. At this moment, many children from rich families are already taking a boat trip.
Concubine Tao walked halfway and looked back at Wen Ranran from a distance.
"Don't you want to talk?"
Wen Ranran raised her eyebrows, "That's great!"
The two casually rented a small boat, and Wen Ranran also brought out a bottle of wine.
"I really didn't expect that you would also leave the palace!" Wen Ranran handed Tao Fei a glass of wine and said sincerely.
Concubine Tao smiled, with a hint of perseverance in her eyes.
"No matter what, I must ensure that Yuan'er is safe!"
Wen Ranran nodded. She could understand Concubine Tao's concerns as a mother, but...
"My father will not let you out of the palace in vain. What are the conditions? Can you tell me?" Wen Ranran looked at the other party with a smile.
"It's very simple... We are going here as the vanguard to find out the news. Feng Cheng has already brought the follow-up troops... We are going to Binguo for no other reason than to overthrow the Jiang family!" Concubine Tao
The tone was understated, "I told the emperor everything I knew."
"The most suitable successor to Bin State now is Yuan'er! I promised Your Majesty that when the matter is completed, Bin State will remove its flag and establish a vassal state just like Lan State!"
Wen Ranran was surprised.
Is Emperor Rongcheng... planning for Xia Lishuang?
The Bin Kingdom is always a hidden danger, and Xia Liyuan is both the prince of the Rong Kingdom and the blood of the Bin Kingdom, so it is indeed reasonable to do so.
But...based on Wen Ranran's understanding of Xia Liyuan...he might not be willing.
Then what will you do if you are caught in the middle?
Although Xia Liyuan seemed cynical before, after getting along with him many times, Wen Ranran even knew clearly that his abilities and strategies were not inferior to her husband's.
This is not to exaggerate others' ambitions and destroy one's own prestige, but to be honest.
Xia Liyuan is a lurker, he hides all his abilities and strategies.
Otherwise, who could have almost deceived her and Xia Lishuang in the previous edict incident?
After having been with Jiang Zijing for so many years, who dared to break away from Wenxi Tower and build his own Yunxi Tower under Jiang Zijing's nose?
On the grassland, Yan Tu is caught in the middle and acts as a doormat. Who can save Yan Tu from the fire and water in such a situation?
These seemingly insignificant things are actually of great importance, and they were all done by Xia Liyuan.
His ambition, his strategy, and his aura of belonging to a superior person are no worse than Xia Lishuang or Xia Lihong. It is just due to physical conditions that they have been dormant.
However, now that Concubine Tao has agreed to such a thing, will he really be willing to do so?
Lingnan cooperated with Xia Lishuang for their own sake, and when they went to Northern Xinjiang, it was because they were among them... However, standing in a confrontational situation, who can be willing to be subordinate to others and be their minister?
Wen Ranran was silent for a while, and then said to Concubine Tao: "You may not know much about him...he..."
Concubine Tao curled her lips and smiled bitterly: "Of course I know my own son...but you have helped him several times, and his heart is hanging on you. Now that he is going to the guest country, even if you don't treat him well...
Take action, can you guarantee that Xia Lishuang will not take action against him? You can think that I don't trust you, but... I have no choice!"
Wen Ranran stopped talking. She knew that what Concubine Tao said was true.
This is a matter between men, involving the throne, the crown prince, and even the situation of the world, old and new grudges... She loves Xia Lishuang, but she cannot ask him to do something that is a pain in the ass without a bottom line.
Once or twice is okay, but... what if there are too many things? What would Xia Lishuang think?
Concubine Tao is thinking about herself in disguise...
The conversation came to nothing in the end. Wen Ranran didn't say anything, but just promised: "I won't hurt you, but the premise is... you have to be on the same side!"
