In 1644, after the Qing army entered the customs, the order to shave their hair and change clothes was announced, and thousands of Han Chinese succumbed to the obscene power of the Qing army. But the initiator of this great shame and humiliation was not manchus, but the traitor Sun Zhizhi.
Sun Zhizhu was originally a jinshi, but he was an out-and-out Sven scum. As early as when Wei Zhongxian was stirring up trouble, Sun Zhihuo, who coveted wealth and nobility, aided and abetted his own colleagues.
With the fall of Wei Zhongxian, Sun Zhizhuo was also liquidated and removed from his post, but unfortunately, the Chongzhen Emperor did not kill this scum when he purged the castration party, resulting in endless troubles.
When the Qing army entered the customs, Sun Zhizhuo, who was demoted to a civilian, saw the opportunity for a comeback, immediately shaved his head, changed into Manchu costumes and went to surrender, and obtained a position as a ceremonial attendant (engaged in propaganda work).
However, Sun Zhizhuo was not used as much as Fan Wencheng, because he did not have any talent himself, only flattery. In the eyes of manchu officials, Sun Zhihu was only a lowly Han Chinese; in the eyes of other Han officials, Sun Zhizhuo was a traitorous scum, and everything seemed out of place.
For the sake of his own future, Sun Zhizhu actually came up with a poisonous plan! He made a suggestion to the then regent Dorgon:
His Majesty pacifies China, everything is new, and the system of clothes and hair, which exists only in the old Han, is His Majesty from China, not From His Majesty.
Whoever doesn't shave his hair and dresses is disloyal to Daqing! The bones of the Chongzhen Emperor were not cold, and Sun Zhihuo had already changed his method to harm his own people.
When Dorgon heard this, he drifted away, and he felt that he could also unify the hairstyle of the whole country like Qin Shi Huang's "book with the same text, the car on the same track", so that the Han people could submit to the Manchu Qing. As a result, the Qing Dynasty vigorously implemented the shaving order of "leaving hair without leaving head".
As soon as the news spread, the crowds of people everywhere could be described as indignant. At that time, the Han people believed that the skin of the body was subject to the parents. To shave their hair is like killing their parents.
In the beginning, the people were only allowed to keep two braids (money rattails), until the end of the Qing Dynasty, it evolved into the yin and yang head in film and television dramas.
In the face of the revolt of the people, the Qing Dynasty adopted a cruel policy of massacre. During this period, many famous tragedies occurred, such as the Ten Days of Yangzhou, the Three Massacres of Jiading, and so on, and the killing was a river of blood, and the people everywhere paid a tragic price:
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the national population was still more than 100 million, and in the Shunzhi period, the population was only more than 40 million, which was directly less than half, which included the "credit" of the shaving order.
Of course, this notorious traitor did not have a good ending. Shortly after the shaving order was implemented, the people of Shandong revolted indignantly, and the rebel army captured Sun Zhihuo alive (because of his lack of merit, he had been reduced to a civilian) and divided his five horses into corpses.
Even after more than 300 years, Sun Zhihuo was still dug up. Just the year before, there had been a tomb robbery incident in Sun's cemetery, but strangely, only Sun Zhizhuo's cemetery had been destroyed, and the others were safe and sound. It can be seen that Sun Zhizhuo's sins are so deep that he is still unforgivable.
