This article centers on the political activities of the Baohuanghui(保皇会) in Honolulu from 1900 to 1903. Employing a perspective beyond "revolution" and "nationalism," it interprets the political engagements of Overseas Chinese (华侨) during the late Qing dynasty. Using the confrontation between Baohuanghui and Consul of the Qing government as a narrative thread, the study explores changes in the political power structure within the Overseas Chinese community and investigates the response of Hawaiian authorities to political disputes within this community. The article also examines how this political turmoil ultimately triggered diplomatic negotiations between China and the United States, providing insight into the disparities in worldviews and modern legal concepts between the two nations. It highlights how Overseas Chinese proactively responded to changes in their living environment and discusses the potential impact of Overseas Chinese on political reforms in the Qing Dynasty.
