Ah, ok, yeah, I have seen a lot of anti-Manchurian sentiment when I've been reading chinese novels. It's pretty much gotten to be a staple cliche for pre-modern setting stories just as much as anti-western/anti-foreign nationalist jingoism gets to be in modernish settings.
I've always felt like it grew out of people using the Qing dynasty as a scapegoat for "causing" or "being responsible for" all the bad stuff that happened from the late 19th through most of the 20th century.
