Cut off a queue and steal a soul. An evil wind swept through the prosperous Qing, and a mysterious case threw the common people into a great panic. The emperor took personal command, and officials were sent out in force. What was really behind this case? Who was its mastermind? What does the period of the "queue-clipping cases" have in common with China today? And how is it different?
