>You go into shameful hiding for years in Hong Kong, then Japan.
>The Japanese let you be the emperor you never were in Manchukuo
Where did it all go so wrong?
>being a puppet

He had no choice. There was either trusting the corrupt fucks who kicked you out and would treat you like a puppet anyway or trusting the not-so-corrupt-looking ones who offer you a chance to fulfill your destiny.

If I was Puyi, I would have helped the Japanese too, being royalty but not ruling has to eat someone up inside, especially in China where emperors were treated as gods among men.
