This time, he transformed into the Armor Hero Bei Miao. Apart from his fashionable rich kid attire, his appearance wasn't particularly strange.
Although it might attract the attention of some passersby, the Chinese appearance itself doesn't provoke hostility. As for the expensive black leather jacket, it's not particularly strange in this era, except perhaps for its novelty.
On the contrary, Nezha, dressed in Hanfu, was more eye-catching.
Speaking of which, Nezha speaks haltingly, a bit like a robot, and his expressions are quite like an iceberg.
Actually, her voice is quite pleasant, the kind that's cute, and she looks like an adorable little girl.
Suddenly, a noisy shouting sound came from somewhere in the capital.
"Go, take a look."
"it is good."
With that, the two headed straight for the crowded area, where people from all over the world were gathered.
Aizen secretly used some hypnosis to make people keep some distance, allowing him and Nezha to squeeze in.
A Shinigami who is highly proficient in D-type attacks is already capable of wielding some of the Zanpakuto's power; similar feats have been accomplished by Kuchiki Kyoga and Toshiro, who both abandoned their Zanpakuto.
They could all do it, so Aizen could do it easily too. However, when he used it, he could only simply affect other people's five senses, which was somewhat similar to Kuchiki Kyoga, but the essence was different.
Strictly speaking, both of their Zanpakuto are illusion-type.
The Mirror Flower, Water Moon technique primarily targets hypnosis. While Muramasa appears to have complex functions, both its mental attacks and brainwashing Zanpakuto are essentially illusions aimed at the soul.
Therefore, in terms of influencing others' senses, Aizen is indeed inferior to Kuchiki Kyoga without relying on his Zanpakuto; otherwise, he wouldn't need to show his Shikai and could directly hypnotize his opponent.
Only after squeezing into the crowd did they finally understand what had happened.
It turned out to be the execution moment of a Manchu official.
Aizen couldn't even save the Great Sword King Wu, so naturally he had no intention of helping him out or being a good Samaritan.
But Aizen soon witnessed something unexpected.
Many Han Chinese compatriots actually offered wine to this Manchu official who was about to depart. The official took the wine, smiled contemptuously, and then drank it down and laughed loudly: "I killed Ketteler, and I dare to admit it! But Ketteler, as an envoy, actually shot my compatriot and fired a shot at me as a show of force. I killed him, and he deserved it."
Today, my blood will be shed here, ensuring that people will never forget that anyone who dares to act recklessly on Chinese soil will be punished.
"Whoever it is, Han or Manchu, there are those who aren't afraid of death who dare to fire a shot back at him!"
A name that didn't leave a deep impression suddenly popped into my mind.
Enhai.
In June, the Eight-Nation Alliance invasion of China was triggered.
Of course, this man was merely a pretext for the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion; he simply happened to kill the German envoy.
"This person is not bad."
Nezha's eyes flickered, and his clear, though not loud, voice was all the more noticeable at that moment.
Chapter 231 The Great God of the Three Altars and the Sea, Nezha the Third Prince 26/30
With reporters from various countries watching, Nezha's voice immediately drew everyone's attention.
Reporters from various countries, already stunned by En Hai's resounding voice, quickly took photos and wrote down his words.
Immediately afterward, a foreign journalist fluent in Chinese looked at the…cute little girl and asked loudly, “Excuse me, madam, do you agree with Mr. Enhai’s remarks and believe that he did nothing wrong?”
Upon hearing this, everyone present immediately came to their senses.
The Han Chinese present glared angrily.
How can you answer "yes" in a situation like this?
If that's the case, then you're definitely talking about Eunhae.
So how could these Allied soldiers let this girl go? But if they said "no"...
Then the country's face would be completely trampled underfoot.
At that moment, the reporter also realized the inappropriateness of his words.
However, compared to a girl's life, he was more concerned with the sensational nature of the news and obviously wouldn't care about these things.
Just then, En Hai, who had already prepared to die, frowned slightly and interrupted loudly, "This matter has nothing to do with this young lady. If I, En Hai, am not going to live today, then don't involve anyone else."
Time will tell the truth about grudges and right and wrong; why make things difficult for a young woman?
China, in the end, belongs to the Chinese people.
The Manchus did many things that harmed the Han people, but at least we are all sons and daughters of China nurtured by this land.
I'm going to die, but I'm happy that I can die on this land that gave me birth and nurtured me!
"Let's do it!"
After saying these words, Enhai slowly closed his eyes and awaited his death.
Upon hearing this, Aizen's expression turned somewhat strange.
Enhai's statement that he considers himself Chinese is both true and false in Aizen's view.
Whether Manchus should be considered part of China is actually difficult to determine strictly.
First, we must distinguish between the Huaxia, Yanhuang, and Han-Tang dynasties.
The descendants of Yan and Huang include Han people, but are not limited to Han people.
Huaxia is equivalent to Zhonghua, "Hua"
The name is derived from Huaxu, the ancestor of the Yan and Huang Emperors, and the character "中" (zhong) is also present.
"summer"
Both represent the Central Plains, hence the name Huaxia, and Zhonghua is greater than Yanhuang.
First of all, it is certain that Manchus are not the same as Han Chinese.
The Manchus can be traced back to before the Warring States period, and their names have also changed, such as H, Jurchen, and the like.
Originating in Northeast China, north of Changbai Mountain, it seems to be part of China geographically, so it wouldn't be wrong to say that it's a part of the Chinese civilization.
From another perspective, the Manchus, regardless of their identity, never truly integrated into China. From before the Warring States period until the Qing Dynasty, they occupied the area north of the successive Chinese dynasties, either as a vassal state or as foreign enemies, belonging to the nomadic ethnic group's sphere of influence.
Some might argue that since there were several states during the Warring States and Spring and Autumn periods, why shouldn't the Qin massacre be considered a massacre of foreign tribes? That's because Qin, Chu, and other states were originally vassal states enfeoffed by the Zhou Dynasty and were originally one entity. Even if we disregard the Xia Dynasty, which lacks archaeological evidence, and start from the Shang Dynasty, those states all shared a common ancestor and were clearly of the same ilk.
As for the Manchus, that region had been a source of trouble for the Chinese people since the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The so-called tyrant King Zhou of Shang even sent troops to the Eastern Yi to eliminate the threat. That region was also integrated into the Chinese civilization during the Qin Dynasty.
Therefore, after the establishment of the Han Dynasty, they also became part of the Han people.
These people are undoubtedly descendants of Yan and Huang or Han Chinese.
But after the Qin and Han dynasties, the "Eastern Barbarians"
This name did not disappear; from that time onwards, the Dongyi were also known as the "Northeast Yi."
This includes Manchus and Japanese! The Manchus weren't called Jurchens, but rather their earliest name, Ji Shen.
Nezha should understand this better than Aizen.
Therefore, from a standpoint of never being considered a member of the Chinese people, the only time they were integrated was during the bloody Qing Dynasty, where they did things even worse than Japan.
Placing the Manchus on a higher status than the Han Chinese is not integration, but pure enslavement and rule.
If the Manchus had no goodwill, how could there be any real integration?
The later appointment of Han Chinese officials was a "last resort" only after Hong Xiuquan and his group had nearly wiped out all the Manchu talent.
Ma.
Note: The above paragraph represents the author's objective viewpoint, free from personal bias or unverifiable historical embellishments.
Therefore, don't say too much about ethnic issues, especially those brothers who frequent the Yuanqing Bar, please don't get angry.
If anyone tries to insult me or anything like that about this issue, as a pure Han Chinese with a family tree, I wouldn't mind taking the time to dedicate a separate chapter to discussing the matter properly and then directly refuting their claims.
Therefore, Enhai's words made him seem even more extraordinary.
At least from him, we can see that Enhai was indeed a Manchu who was inclined to assimilation, and ideologically he was already considered a part of China.
However, this does not change the fact that Aizen had no good feelings towards the Qing Dynasty.
Perhaps later generations have become accustomed to shaving heads, but the old saying still holds true: "Keep your head, lose your hair; keep your hair, lose your head."
The shame of that incident is as indelible as the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance and the Nanjing Massacre.
In my past life, not cutting your hair was considered unusual, and almost no one followed that ancient rule anymore.
However, since ancient times, there has been a saying: "Our bodies, hair, and skin are given to us by our parents; we dare not damage them, for this is the beginning of filial piety."
This statement is not outdated, but rather a respect for life and filial piety towards parents.
This behavior by the Manchus trampled on the filial piety and dignity of countless children at that time, and it was not merely a matter of habit.
Seeing Eun-hae face death calmly, the reporters' attention was drawn back to her, and they recorded her last words.
The executioner raised the beheading blade upon receiving the order.
"die."
Swish.
A flash of silver light.
Just as countless people closed their eyes in unbearable sorrow, a scream was heard.
"what"
He's good.
I saved it.
Nezha's expression remained unchanged as he gripped the executioner's arm.
Everyone opened their eyes in astonishment, unsure of what to say in the face of this astonishing scene.
Enhai, who suddenly opened his eyes, was also stunned, then smiled bitterly and said, "Why bother, young lady? Judging from your appearance, you should be Han Chinese."
Why risk your life for someone who is destined to die? Consider this my atonement to the Han people.”
"Aton for your sins, go yourself."
I saved you, but... I wanted to do it this way.
"How dare she storm the execution ground! Seize her immediately!"
The Allied officials, jolted awake, shouted angrily.
Immediately, many Han Chinese glared angrily and wanted to stand up.
They admired Enhai, that's true, but Enhai was, after all, a Manchu, and since the court had chosen to sacrifice him, they were naturally powerless to do anything about it.
But now that a Han girl is being bullied, how can these Han people, who have witnessed the descent of the white dragon and the will of emperors throughout history, turn a blind eye?
Nezha's usually aloof and delicate face involuntarily curved into a slight smile.
"All of you, step back."
"The girl is alright, we'd rather risk our lives than let her go."
"I said, all of you, step back."
I don't need anyone's help.
As Nezha saw the soldiers charging at him with guns, a flash of light appeared on his body.
In the blink of an eye, a deep red robe resembling a cheongsam replaced her attire, two golden circles appeared on her wrists, two rings of fire appeared beneath her feet, and she gripped a long spear with a fiery tip and a noble yet understated red tassel.
"The Great God of the Three Altars and the Seas, the Third Prince, Nezha, are here!"
Chapter 232 Lucky A Lancer 27/30
Flames danced with the long spear; the seemingly aloof Nezha became as fierce as a demon king once he started fighting.
"A ghost! A ghost!"
"Run! She's not human!"
"what!!!"
More than twenty soldiers surrounding Nezha died in the blink of an eye, and the rest were so terrified that they turned and ran away.
Even the officer who gave the order stared at Nezha in shock, clearly not expecting that executing En Hai would cause such a commotion.
