I got into a situation where I nearly got mandate of heaven as Qing China. But Japan is my ally (I broke free then rejoined them), and they took Yunnan as their puppet. Its the only state I need to get all of china for mandate of heaven. Is there some way to take control of it from an ally peacefully? I cant leave faction and declare war on them as were still at war with the allies.
