For the Qing Dynasty, the powers only wanted money, land, ports and privileges, which was not really fatal, so they could negotiate the price. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is different. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is deadly, and it can only be a life-and-death situation.

Both Emperor Daoguang and Empress Dowager Cixi knew this very well in the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the attitude of the Qing Dynasty is completely different. It can compromise foreigners, ask for money and give them money, give them land in an important way, and sign an alliance at the gates. However, it is necessary to kill the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and resolutely exterminate it, uproot the grass and leave no dead ends.

In the eyes of the Qing dynasty, the monarch and his subjects were actually just outsiders who ruled China temporarily, so they were always distrustful and fearful of the Central Plains. The Qing dynasty always believed that it was impossible for him to live forever, and one day he could not get along, so he had to go back to the Commissioner. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty always insisted on forbidding immigrants from Northeast China and Inner Mongolia to reclaim land for development.

Moreover, this kind of struggle of * * * has been going on since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and it is often calm on the surface, but undercurrent is surging underneath. From Prince Zhu San in the Kangxi period, to Bailian Sect in the Qianlong period, and then to the Taiping Rebellion, in the eyes of the Qing Dynasty, all were * * * rebellions against Manchu rule. {! -- PGC_COLUMN --}

Empress Dowager Cixi once said that it is better to be with outsiders than slaves. What do you mean? Is the Qing dynasty if you have to subjugate the country, would rather give China to foreigners, also can't give it to slaves, slaves here said is * * *. At the root, the Qing Dynasty always regarded the Central Plains as its slave conquered by war, instead of really treating itself as the parents of the people. This is completely different from the * * * dynasties that always regarded themselves as the parents of the people.

Therefore, since the Opium War, the Qing Dynasty began to settle accounts and found that it was not as cost-effective as signing a contract, so sign a contract. Anyway, wool comes from sheep, and foreigners want wool, which is nothing more than searching for more from ordinary people. After all, sheep are still their own. However, the Taiping Rebellion is different. If the sheep want to rebel, it can't be tolerated.

who did the Qing dynasty regard as one of its own? In fact, it is Mongolian and Manchu. Nowadays, many people often say that the Ming Dynasty perished because the financial burden caused by the imperial clan of the Ming Dynasty was too heavy, which dragged down the Ming Dynasty. In fact, the Qing dynasty was the same, and the Qing dynasty not only used finance to support the imperial clan, but also used finance to support the entire Manchu men, women and children, as well as the princes and nobles of Mongolia.

the Ming dynasty sent imperial clan to various places for guarding, and so did the Qing dynasty. The Qing Dynasty did not gather all Manchu people together, but distributed them in military and strategic points all over the country, and built cities all over the country, living and living separately from * * *. For example, Kuanzhai Lane in Chengdu, where Manchu people lived in the Qing Dynasty, was isolated from other urban areas in Chengdu.

Even after the Opium War in the Qing Dynasty, the financial situation became more and more tight, and the Manchu population was already large. The Qing Dynasty never thought about moving this privilege of Manchu and Mongolia, but still insisted on continuing to support them. Even in all wars, the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers were completely corrupt and useless, and they still insisted on supporting them.

so what did the Qing dynasty do to support these people? At the time of the Revolution of 1911, the first reaction of the Qing Dynasty was to mobilize the Manchu and Mongolian able-bodied men who were guarding various places to join the army and form an army to suppress the local armed uprising. Because in the eyes of the Qing dynasty, this is one of our own, the most trustworthy and reliable. However, when the imperial court ordered the transfer, it was discovered that the Eight Banners soldiers had long since ceased to be brave in the past, and would only carry caged birds to watch the play and fight cricket.

Therefore, after the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi hated Yuan Shikai the most, and he would do anything to restore the country to the Qing Dynasty, even if he was a puppet for the Japanese. Behind this mentality, the Manchu royal family represented by Puyi never really regarded itself as a part of the Chinese nation, but regarded itself as an outsider.
