Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Tojo Senichi had always opposed the use of force to rule Xiao Kingdom within the Tojo family.

However, at that time, Japan was at the height of its power, and few people believed him. Most people thought that Tojo Senichi was exaggerating.

However, after going through so much, it turns out that Tojo Senichi was right.

Tojo Seisuke had never actually fought anyone from the Xiao Kingdom; his knowledge of the Xiao Kingdom came entirely from hearsay…

Tojo Seisuke said to Tojo Senichi, "The facts are right here, and there's no use in me not believing them. Senichi, aren't you supposed to have great insight? Then, can you tell me? Is the Illuminati capable of taking over Xiao Kingdom?"

Without much hesitation, Tojo Senichi answered Tojo Seisuke, "With Xiao Ce dead, the Xiao Kingdom perishes! If Xiao Ce lives, the Illuminati cannot conquer the Xiao Kingdom!"

After hearing Tojo Senichi's words, Tojo Seisuke laughed out loud: "So, you mean the Illuminati will definitely win? Take over Xiao Kingdom?"

Tojo Senichi shook his head: "Father, why are you so sure? Xiao Ce will die?"

Tojo Seisuke laughed and said, "Because the Illuminati killed him? Senichi, that shouldn't be the case. Others may not understand the Illuminati, but we are quite familiar with their abilities..."

Tojo Sen nodded: "That's true... that's how it is according to common sense, but I think there's something strange about this."

Seeing the puzzled look on Tojo Senichi's face, Tojo Seisuke asked, "Strange? What do you find strange? Was Xiao Ce caught too easily?"

Tojo Sen nodded: "Moreover, actually, I was quite disappointed after seeing Xiao Ce!"

After listening to Tojo Senichi's words, Tojo Seisuke smiled and said, "We're on the same page. I also think that Xiao Ce is different from what I imagined... However, I think he's just putting on an act. After all, according to our information, he's a skilled actor!"

After listening to Tojo Seisuke's words, Tojo Senichi nodded: "I don't think so. I think he might not be Xiao Ce!"

After hearing this, Tojo Seisuke laughed out loud: "Not Xiao Ce, then who is he? His younger brother? We've investigated Xiao Ce's background and identity thoroughly; he doesn't have a twin brother! You and I have both seen his appearance up close. So many people have compared him to portraits..."

"Moreover, according to the Illuminati members, they were clearly captured by some force within the Illuminati. If they were fakes, how could they not be discovered?"

Tojo Senichi said, "Do you think it's possible for two people in this world to be exactly alike..."

Tojo Seisuke remained silent.

After pondering for a moment, he still smiled and said, "What you said is indeed a possibility... but it's unlikely to happen. In fact, the very fact that you even had this idea means we were already wrong! It already shows that he has succeeded!"

Senichi Tojo said to Seisuke Tojo, "Father, you still think he was acting..."

Tojo Seisuke nodded: "That's right... I know what you're thinking. After all, how could someone as capable as him be captured so easily? It doesn't make sense!"

Tojo Sen nodded.

Tojo Seisuke said, "Do you think it makes sense that our great nation of Fusang was defeated and routed in such a short period of time, in just a few months, and that even Fusang was occupied by them?"

"As the saying goes, even tigers have their moments of weakness. Your idea is quite an exaggeration. You have too much imagination."

Tojo Senichi gave an awkward smile: "That's true, after thinking about it carefully, it really is unbelievable. It's just that that person doesn't seem like someone in a position of power at all..."

Tojo Seisuke said, "That's what makes him so formidable."

Upon hearing Tojo Seisuke's words, Tojo Senichi nodded: "Father, you're right. They were able to deceive us, but they can't deceive the Illuminati."

The two men chatted idly until they reached their territory, where their carriage was stopped.

Tojo Senichi glanced outside.

It turned out to be someone from the Tojo family. Before Tojo Senichi could speak, a middle-aged man outside asked him, "Young master, is the head of the family here?"

"Uncle Zhushan, are you there? What happened?"

The man who came was named Tojo Takeyama. He was their bodyguard commander and a close confidant of his father.

I don't want to talk to this person.

Senichi Tojo glanced at Seisuke Tojo, and Seisuke Tojo poked his head out.

"What happened in Zhushan? Am I here?"

Tojo Takeyama glanced at Tojo Senichi almost unconsciously.

Tojo Seisuke said, "What, you don't even believe my son? Tell me..."

"Xiao Ce is back!"

Upon hearing this, Tojo Seisuke was not surprised; in fact, he laughed out loud.

"Haha, as expected of the Illuminati! They're incredibly fast!"

When Tojo Takeyama heard Tojo Seisuke say this, he looked surprised and asked, "Master, do you know? It was sent back by the Illuminati?"

Seeing that Tojo Takeyama was unaware, Tojo Seisuke asked, "You don't know?"

Tojo Takeyama nodded: "That's right, Master. Someone just said they heard a noise coming from the backyard, so we went to investigate and saw..."

Tojo Seisuke was not surprised: "The people from the Illuminati are indeed full of talent!"

Looking at Tojo Seisuke, Tojo Takeyama asked, "It seems you, head of the family, were aware of this?"

Tojo Seisuke helped Tojo Takeyama into the carriage, and then recounted their experiences from inside the carriage.

Tojo Takeyama's expression was not good, after all, he was the one protecting the president.

They were from the Illuminati, and right under his nose they took people away and brought them back.

It wasn't just a slap in the face, it was a series of slaps.

Seeing that Tojo Takeyama looked unwell, Tojo Seisuke offered a few words of comfort.

After returning to their residence, they went straight to see the fake Xiao Ce.

The fake Xiao Ce looked terrified and repeated to them that he was a fake.

Seeing the fake Xiao Ce's expression, Tojo Seisuke laughed and said, "Alright, stop pretending... Do you know why the Illuminati sent you back?"

The fake Xiao Ce shook his head.

Tojo Seisuke said, "Because they want you dead, the Illuminati has already sentenced you to death. There's no need for you to pretend anymore..."

The fake Xiao Ce burst into tears: "No... I'm not Xiao Ce, my name is Feitian Kojiro. You can investigate, they changed my appearance... I wasn't like this before, but they wrote and drew on my face, and now I look like this... I'm really not..."

Tojo Seisuke listened with a disdainful smile.

Upon seeing this, Tojo Senichi went over and looked at it repeatedly, then had someone bring water to wipe it clean.

But even after wiping his face until it was red, it didn't change his appearance.

Seeing Tojo Senichi's action, Tojo Seisuke smiled helplessly.

Although Tojo Senichi didn't say anything, it was clear that she still didn't quite believe it.

"See? He's lying."

Tojo Sen nodded and said to the fake Xiao Ce, "You're about to die, and you still don't want to talk? Actually, we can talk... We can give you a chance to live... After all, we admire you too."

The fake Xiao Ce didn't listen to anything he said, he just kept repeating those same few sentences.

Tojo Seisuke talked to Tojo Senichi for a long time, but the fake Xiao Ce didn't give them any useful information.

"Alright, Qianyi, stop wasting your breath. He won't admit it. Do you think he's an ordinary person who could single-handedly gather such a large group? He knows better than anyone that if he continues to pretend, he might still have a sliver of hope, but if he stops pretending, he's truly doomed."

Tojo Sen nodded: "Yes, Father, what should we do with this person now?"

At this moment, Tojo Takeyama was holding a pair of shackles, one hand cuffed to his own wrist, and the other hand cuffed to the fake Xiao Ce's wrist.

"Master, don't worry. This time, he can only run away; my head will be spared!"

After watching Tojo Takeyama finish what he was doing, he had someone tie the two men's heads together with several chains.

Tojo Seisuke did not refuse, after all, although the method seemed crude, it did seem to be a solution.

"Alright, Tojo Takeyama, it won't be long. We'll take care of him as soon as possible! And, no one should be able to take him away."

As he spoke, Tojo Seisuke turned and left.

He was indeed quite tired, and he felt that unless the Illuminati came to take him away...

Otherwise, there wouldn't be any problem.

Seeing that Tojo Senichi was still reluctant to leave, Tojo Seisuke asked her, "Senichi, what's wrong?"

Tojo Senichi smiled slightly at Tojo Seisuke: "Father, I'd like to talk to him again..."

Seeing that Tojo Senichi still looked unconvinced, Tojo Seisuke said, "Fine, don't let him fool you."

Tojo Senichi smiled and nodded: "Father, I know."

As he spoke, Tojo Seisuke glanced at Tojo Takeyama, though he didn't say anything.

However, the two of them are old buddies, and they can understand each other with just a glance.

After Tojo Seisuke left.

Tojo Takeyama said to Tojo Senichi, "Young master, what do you want to talk to him about? I won't let you two be alone together."

Tojo Senichi said to Tojo Takeyama, "Uncle Takeyama, don't worry, I won't send you away!"

Tojo Takeyama nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, say whatever you want, I won't interfere."

Tojo Senichi was now sitting in front of this fake Xiao Ce.

"Do you know who I am?" Tojo Senichi sat down in front of the fake Xiao Ce.

The fake Xiao Ce glanced at Tojo Senichi and then said, "Aren't you Tojo Senichi?"

Tojo Senichi asked, "How do you know me?"

The fake Xiao Ce smiled and said, "You are the young master of the Tojo family, how could I not recognize you? I remember three years ago, you came to Duqing when we suffered a disaster. You came to help us... You came to provide disaster relief and treat the diseases of our victims... You are a good person. You see, I know these things. That Xiao Ce who invaded us certainly wouldn't know these things, would he?"

After hearing what the fake Xiao Ce said, Tojo Senichi frowned slightly.

Clearly, he explained it in great detail.

Seeing Tojo Senichi's hesitation, Tojo Takeyama whispered, "It's not difficult for him to know these things. He's already invaded Japan, so it's not hard for him to find out some things!"

Upon hearing Dongtiao Zhushan's words, the fake Xiao Ce wept and recounted many more stories about his hometown, Duqing.

Tojo Takeyama shrugged: "You're no match for me. I don't care who you are... If you're real, you're dead! If you're fake, you're still dead... In any case, you're dead!"

Tojo Takeyama's words made the fake Xiao Ce cry.

Senichi Tojo watched his performance from the sidelines. If that's how he acted, then Xiao Ce is really amazing.

Tojo Senichi glanced at Tojo Takeyama and subtly gave him a look.

This Tojo Takeyama wasn't stupid; he returned a wink.

Tojo Senichi said to the fake Xiao Ce, "Fake Xiao Ce, do you know why I'm staying here?"

The fake Xiao Ce shook his head.

Tojo Senichi said, "I actually believe you. You're not really Xiao Ce... but a scapegoat..."

He saw Tojo Senichi say this.

The fake Xiao Ce Dong immediately burst into tears.

"Young Master Qianyi, I knew you were a good person, I swear! I..."

Tojo Senichi said to the fake Xiao Ce, "Stop swearing. The only one who can save you now is yourself. So, whatever I ask you next, just answer the same questions I ask, understand?"

The fake Xiao Ce nodded his head as if he were a chick pondering.

Tojo Senichi said to the fake Xiao Ce, "Just tell me how you were captured and how you got here?"

The fake Xiao Ce nodded and began to speak: "When they first attacked, because Duqing was located on the mountainside and everyone moved quickly, we were not affected by the war!"

“We continued our normal lives until one day, a group of their crew-cut soldiers came and started looking for people among us. They quickly arrested me.”

"They didn't do anything to me, they just locked me up. There were some other people who were about the same height and build as us locked up together."

"After that, there were people specifically tasked with checking and screening us. In the end, only three people remained... Finally, a person dressed in a Taoist robe from the Xiao Kingdom appeared and started writing and drawing on my face. I became Xiao Ce's face, and then I was transported here..."

"I really have absolutely no idea what happened..."

Tojo Senichi simply nodded as he listened, then asked the man, "Did Murata Hiroshi rebel in Japan?"

The fake Xiao Ce shook his head: "I...I don't know either...I don't know. I've been imprisoned the whole time. I don't know anything about Fusang. I'm innocent..."

As they spoke, the fake Xiao Ce began to get agitated again...
