Fundamentally, the Re-Estize Kingdom is corrupt and weak. It's not worth making an ally or vassal in its current form. Thus Ainz plans to bring the tensions between the Royal and Noble factions to a head and start a civil war.

Ainz will then ally with the King (most likely Zanac, by the time this occurs) and purge the treasonous (and incompetent) nobles, accepting the Kingdom as a vassal state once royal power has been consolidated and made clearly dependent on Nazarick.

This is also an outcome desired by Renner, who hates the nobles as a class and bears personal grudges against large numbers of them as individuals, thus she interfered with the Kingdom to ensure that they did not reach out to Ainz before the Empire could be selected as the most worthwhile ally for the Sorcerous Kingdom.
