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

Okamoto Juroku then said, "Ichisaku, you're right. You must go. This is our chance. Do you have a way to help that agent in this matter and find the mole within them who instructed Tokugawa Heiyasu? If so, he will definitely value you highly."

Xiao Ce nodded, now adopting a humble tone: "My lord, I can only say I'll give it a try... I don't have high hopes. You can't abandon me then..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Okamoto Juroku burst into laughter: "You brat, just don't forget about us when you become successful."

After listening to Okamoto Juroku's words, Xiao Ce said firmly, "Lord, my name is Okamoto Ichisaku."

Xiao Ce's words were a way of expressing his attitude.

Okamoto Juzo, standing nearby, said to Xiao Ce, "Xiao Ce, in everything, preserving your life is the most important thing..."

Xiao Ce nodded with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries with them for a while and receiving their affirmative reply,

Xiao Ce left satisfied, and after leaving, he winked at Ye Mao and Da Lei, telling them not to worry.

After Xiao Ce left, Tojo Seisuke was still anxiously waiting at the door.

Seeing Xiao Ce come out, Tojo Seisuke quickly asked, "Mr. Ichisaku... how is it? Are you able to go?"

Xiao Ce was quite speechless at Tojo Seisuke's constant use of the honorific "you" (您).

However, since he likes to bark, we let him be.

Xiao Ce smiled at Tojo Seisuke and said, "That's right, I can go... Head of the Tojo family, you can rest assured."

Tojo Seisuke smiled and nodded: "I'm relieved, of course I'm relieved. This time, I heard what that agent said, and it's all thanks to you for defending us."

"We will need Mr. Yice to put in a good word for us in the future."

Xiao Ce remained very polite: "Head of the Tojo family, you flatter me..."

The two exchanged pleasantries and left.

Okamoto Juro said to Okamoto Juro, "Big brother, are you really willing to let Mr. Xiao Ce go?"

Okamoto Juzo smiled and then said, "Of course I'm willing to part with it. What, you still don't trust my little brother?"

Okamoto Juroku was taken aback by Okamoto Juroku's words: "Big brother, isn't that a generational difference?"

Okamoto Juzo smiled and then said, "I've already decided. When he comes back, I'll have him acknowledge me as his younger brother... A shaman once said that I would meet a benefactor who could help us turn bad luck into good. Now it seems that this benefactor is none other than my younger brother, Yice."

Okamoto Shiro nodded. Actually, he initially thought that the three brothers, plus a madman, were a bunch of charlatans.

However, it seems that they are still capable.

Thinking of this, Okamoto Juro suddenly remembered something and said to Okamoto Juro, "Oh right, big brother, there's something I forgot to tell you..."

Hearing Okamoto Juzo's serious expression, he quickly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Okamoto Juro nodded: "That's right, their third uncle has disappeared again..."

Okamoto Juzo listened and looked at Night Owl and Big Thunder.

Night Owl nodded: "That's right, my lord, let him go. He got lost before, but he came back... so we're not in a hurry..."

Da Lei nodded: "Thank you for your concern, Lord. We're used to it now."

Okamoto Juzo nodded first, then asked them, "Does your older brother know? He seems to care about him a lot."

Night Owl and Big Thunder thought to themselves, "Xiao Ce is different now that he has their attention."

He didn't show anything on his face and said to Okamoto Juzo, "It's alright, we told our brother, and he knows about it too!"

Okamoto Juzo nodded: "That's good then, but your third uncle is really something. With so many of us on guard, he managed to sneak out without anyone noticing?"

Night Owl gave an awkward laugh: "I'm curious too...maybe madmen aren't mentally sound, but they always have some strange characteristics."

Okamoto Juzo smiled and agreed, "That's right, that's certainly true. All three of you are capable in your own way, and your third uncle is definitely no ordinary person."

...

As soon as Xiao Ce walked over, Yin Pan'er's servants were already waiting there.

After seeing Xiao Ce, Xiao Yue gestured for him to enter.

“Mr. Yice, our master is already waiting for you.”

Seeing Xiaoyue's attitude, Xiao Ce knew that things were going well.

Once inside, Yin Pan'er was still reading a book.

Xiao Ce actually admired Yin Pan'er's learning ability very much. If she were in modern times, he would definitely be a top student.

After all, Yin Pan'er certainly didn't know the Japanese language or any Western languages ​​before.

Yin Pan'er was able to infiltrate the Illuminati, so language was definitely not a problem for her.

Xiao Ce remembered that in his previous life, he was quite talented at learning those languages, and he studied them for a long time.

Yin Pan'er didn't study for very long...

Her talent is evident.

As Xiao Ce stood to one side, Yin Pan'er, whether engrossed in watching or because she was wearing a mask, did not notice Xiao Ce approaching.

Moreover, Xiao Ce found it rather amusing to see him reading a book while wearing a mask.

I wonder if she'll be confused...

Only after being reminded by his servants did Yin Pan'er slowly put down the book.

She slowly looked at Xiao Ce.

"Here comes the first plan? Can you tell me now? What's the next step?"

Xiao Ce nodded and said to Yin Pan'er, "I think it's very simple now. Tokugawa Heiyasu of Fusang is already dead. So it's very simple, just handle it as if Tokugawa Heiyasu was fighting against the Illuminati."

"First, execute the entire Tokugawa Heijiyasu clan! Then inform the entire Illuminati of your actions... This way, those within the Illuminati who were actually behind it will lower their guard..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er looked surprised, then said with a wry smile, "Is this the plan you came up with? I thought you had some brilliant idea... It seems I overestimated you... Are you using me to eliminate the Tokugawa Heiyasu family and then make our Illuminati take the blame?"

Xiao Ce smiled faintly and said, "Of course not, you're overthinking it with the 'agent' thing... My purpose in doing this is to help you catch the people causing trouble within your ranks."

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce with increasing confusion: "Don't make me ask... just tell me clearly."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "I just asked you to tell them about this decision. What do you think some people's reaction would be, given the usual circumstances?"

Yin Pan'er was silent for a moment, then looked at Xiao Ce with a slight brightening in her eyes.

"You mean screening based on their reactions?"

Xiao Ce nodded, then nodded to Yin Pan'er: "That's right...that's exactly it."

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "What if they are good at acting?"

Xiao Ce smiled slightly at Yin Pan'er and then said, "Of course I have other ways."

As he spoke, Xiao Ce stepped forward and whispered something in Yin Pan'er's ear.

Yin Pan'er asked warily, "What do you want to do?"

Xiao Ce said, "The fewer people who know about my plan, the better..."

Yin Pan'er glanced at Xiaoyue instinctively, then said, "She's someone I absolutely trust..."

Xiao Ce didn't say anything, only smiled slightly, and then said, "There's only one person I absolutely trust, and that's myself..."

Xiao Ce's words represent his attitude.

Yin Pan'er was somewhat dazed by Xiao Ce's words, and then said, "Just tell me directly."

Xiao Ce did not seem to believe Yin Pan'er's words.

Seeing that Xiao Ce didn't seem to be going to speak, Xiao Yue said, "Master, should I excuse myself?"

Yin Pan'er nodded.

After Xiaoyue left for a while, Yin Pan'er glanced at Xiao Ce and then said, "Can we talk now?"

Xiao Ce glanced at Yin Pan'er, then said, "Of course that's possible... but..."

Seeing Xiao Ce trying to get closer again, Yin Pan'er said with displeasure, "I've already told her to leave. Do you want to come any closer? Do you want to die?"

Seeing Yin Pan'er's wariness, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "I'm afraid the walls have ears."

Yin Pan'er pulled out a very exquisite pistol from her waist and pointed the black muzzle at Xiao Ce.

"You just stand there!"
