Is it a joke to wear protective clothing at the railway station?

Many years ago, there was a post on the Internet discussing the whereabouts of the children of the Eight Banners in the Qing Dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The result of the discussion is that these aristocratic children are no different from ordinary people. Some people have real skills. They may become writers and politicians, while others become ordinary workers and vendors. What's even more funny is that some people are still a bit "aristocratic" and always brag about their ancestors.

First, the "beauty leaf" of the railway station.

The netizens who saw it laughed one after another. What age are you still dreaming of nobility? However, there are not a few people who dream noble.

In 2005, an ironic news happened at Guangzhou Railway Station. A man in a yellow jacket and pigtails had a dispute with the staff because he didn't buy a train ticket, and rolled around in the train station, which seriously affected the normal work of the train station.

When the security guard came to maintain order, the man even made rude remarks, calling himself "Baylor", and even cursed the security guard as "inferior" and reprimanded the people present as "inferior" and "slaves".

These words made the onlookers frown, and then attracted TV reporters. Facing the camera, this "Baylor" introduced himself unhurriedly, saying that his name is Essien Gioro Zhoudi and he was born in Guangzhou. His ancestors were Dourgen, the famous founding father of the Qing Dynasty and the first hero of the Qing Dynasty. He is the tenth grandson and the last generation of Dourgen.

According to police investigation, the name on the man's ID card is Zhou. As for whether he has anything to do with Dourgen, it is really not the scope of police work, but many people are interested in this matter. Soon, the local TV station arranged a home visit.

Second, the "noble" home

As soon as I entered Aisingiorro Zhoudi's house, the reporter was shocked. The family seems to have crossed over. There is a row of portraits of Qing emperors hanging in the living room, and the layout of the room is mainly bright yellow. The wardrobe is full of Manchu costumes such as mandarin jackets and cheongsam, and utensils such as tableware and washbasins are also made of antiques.

Aisingiorro Zhou Di said that he did this to preserve the heritage of his ancestors. At home, Zhou Di asked his family to communicate only in Manchu, and the younger generation would salute him when they saw him. The funniest thing for reporters is that Zhou Di called his wife "Fujin" and his son "Brother". In this family, men wear jackets and pigtails, and women stand at the bottom of flowerpots and wear flags. What they don't know is that they think it is.

Zhou Di said that his wife was also born in Manchu Eight Banners. When he got married himself, he made it clear that women who are not in the Eight Banners will not get married, and the marriage of children is the same. He will never allow his aristocratic lineage to be "defiled".

Aisingiorro Zhou Di also publicly claimed to give the country a statement. What statement? He felt that it was disrespectful for the country to encroach on his ancestral property, the Forbidden City, and to open it to civilians without authorization. He felt that the ownership of the Forbidden City should belong to the descendants of the Qing Dynasty, that is, himself.

This made me laugh, and netizens commented. Even the serious Emperor Puyi didn't give any advice. He didn't know that he would come out for property several generations later. Besides, the Forbidden City was originally built by feudal rulers with people's fat and paste. Does Zhou Di think it is still a feudal society?

However, Zhou Di became increasingly depressed. He also went to Beijing to meet Pu Yi's younger brother, Mr. Pu Ren, and wanted to communicate with two "distinguished people". But Mr. Puren only reluctantly advised him not to immerse himself in this and to be a good citizen!

Third, a joke.

Many people also question the true identity of this Manchu descendant. It is recorded in the draft of the Qing Dynasty that Dourgen has no son but only one daughter. How can a tenth grandson named Essien Choro appear out of thin air?

Moreover, Aisingiorro Zhoudi is just his self-proclaimed name, and his surname Zhou is clearly written on his ID card. Although many Manchu nobles changed their surnames to avoid disaster after the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, most of them directly transliterated in Manchu. For example, Aisingiorro took a similar pronunciation of the Han surname-Jin, and Pu Yi's brothers' ID cards all said Jin's surname, and some people wanted to be "Aisingiorro" and "Luo's surname", but according to research, anyway.

Besides, Zhou Di's name is wrong. Aisingiorro's poems have their own word generation ranking. If, as Zhou Di said, Puyi is his cousin, his name should be "Dipper". Since Zhou Di's family values his identity so much, how can it be unclear about the word generation?

It can be seen that this so-called descendant of Dourgen is a liar who even failed the history class. Sadly, Zhou Di is willing to indulge in this noble dream, and some people even really believe his story and think that he is "Lord Baylor".

Strangely, the feudal dynasty has fallen for nearly a hundred years, but anyone still remembers it, let alone a liar like Zhou Di. Even a fake Manchu ID card can attract a few words of "Gege" and "Brothers", but is it really worth remembering that time when people stood tall and sucked up the blood of countless people?

Why did the feudal dynasty go to ruin? Because at that time, people could only be oppressed and people could only be slaves. Even princes and nobles still have to endure the oppression of imperial dogma. Everyone has no dignity and freedom, and everyone is just a dust under the feudal system.

People miss that era, perhaps because what we see in our eyes is the obsession with money and the expansion of power, but the reality is that it is only the life of a small number of people, and most of our ancestors were oppressed and enslaved at that time. When princes and nobles were dissolute, beggars, starving farmers and children died at the same time, but no one cared.

After all, history is the history of the people. The word nobility itself has a great sense of superiority, because an illusory bloodline can possess the most superior resources, and ordinary people can be trampled on at will. Such things abound in history, and it can't happen again today.

Mr. Cang Kejia's poem is well written: People crush people who ride on their heads. The people have long awakened, the feudal society collapsed in the torrent of history, and the aristocratic system failed in modern society. Privilege is the object of criticism in today's times. If you want to be respected, you might as well be an ordinary person.
