I once suggested on the Kaiserreich forums of a scenario where Puyi, a German puppet (KR has... an interesting fate for China) marries a German princess. They said it would basically get the Mandate of Heaven revoked for him and the Qing toppling very fast due to public outcry.

Was that assessment accurate? Would a Chinese emperor (late 1800s as well I suppose) marrying a non-Chinese cause such vast scandal?
