He told Xia Wenjin those words because he wanted her to act against Song Sinian.
In the country, if he moved against Song Sinian, Old Master Song could easily detect the matter.
But if Xia Wenjin made the move using the power of the Fengya Family from Country R, even if Old Master Song wanted to investigate, he would find himself powerless.
Moreover, with Lu Zhaozhao's kidnapping, he felt it was the perfect opportunity to stir the waters.
He then harbored the thought of inciting Xia Wenjin to action, unsure if she would take the bait.
Based on his understanding of Xia Wenjin, being not very cunning, she should be persuadable.
As expected, after a brief moment of contemplation, Xia Wenjin nodded in agreement, "I need to discuss this with someone first, then I'll see the specific plan."
Xiao Mo, seeing there was hope for the plan, repeatedly nodded, "Great, whatever you need me to do, I'll go through fire and water."
