Xiao Jinsen gave a slight nod.
Everything Song Yanqing said, was exactly what he had in mind as well.
In fact.
He also knew that going to the border might be better.
It would please his father, the Emperor, and his mother, the Imperial Concubine, could influence his father in his absence. The chances of Xiao Jinxing plotting something during his departure were slim to none.
However, the reasons he didn't wish to go, even those of his mother, the Imperial Concubine, included two main points.
Firstly, the border was rife with war and danger, and he too feared death. Should he die on the battlefield, he would never rest in peace.
Secondly, their patience had run thin. Now, they preferred taking quick action while Xiao Jinxing was absent.
Just as Song Yanqing had said.
If he left for the border, upon returning, he could still potentially become the Crown Prince.
But once Xiao Jinxing left, all his endeavors would fall short just before success.
