After the Qing army entered the customs, the Han people resisted braiding. Why did they resist braiding after the Revolution of 1911?

There are two main reasons. The first is that the Qing court will make a comeback. When the Qing dynasty entered the customs, all ethnic groups were forced to shave their hair, which is the so-called "leaving their heads without hair, leaving their hair without hair." At that time, many people with lofty ideals refused to shave their heads and were executed by the Qing court. This situation has lasted for more than 200 years. Although the braid is getting thicker and longer, it has always existed. Now people are required to cut their braids, and their attitude remains to be seen. What if the Qing Dynasty was re-established? The second reason is the disguised education of the Qing court, which is very clever. In the process of education, the theory that "the body is influenced by parents" has been repeatedly emphasized. If it is unfilial to cut braids, Confucianism has always advocated loyalty and filial piety, so many scholars are reluctant to cut braids. In fact, this is not the case in all previous dynasties. People didn't cut their hair before, but they also trimmed their hair.

Actually, not everyone is so ignorant. Lv Simian, a master historian, recorded such a thing. When he was a child, the Revolution of 1911 won. One of his fellow villagers dug up an ancestral Hanfu from home. Then go to the cemetery to worship the ancestors and tell them that "China has recovered!" This man is very admirable. In the Qing Dynasty, the possession of Hanfu was beheaded. This family has been handed down for more than 200 years, which is commendable. On the issue of braids, Mr. Lu Xun also talked about it in his book Mr. Fujino. At that time, some students in the Qing Dynasty put braids on their heads and then put on hats. When Mr. Lu Xun felt so ugly, he said that even if he went abroad, even if his thoughts were not civilized, he was still a "patient". The later New Culture Movement was a war to break old ideas.
