Qing Xianfeng refers to 185 1 year to 186 1 year. Emperor Aisingiorro of Xianfeng was crowned Crown Prince by Daoguang in 1846 and died in Shende Hall of Yuanmingyuan in 1850. In the second year after Daoguang's death, that is, 185 1 year, Aisingiorro changed the title of ritual to Xianfeng, which was used for eleven years during Xianfeng's reign.

Life of Emperor Xianfeng: In the first year of Xianfeng (185 1), the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising broke out. In the past two years, the Taiping Army successively captured Hanyang, Yuezhou, Hankou, Nanjing and other southern towns, threatening the hinterland of the central Qing Dynasty. In the third year of Xianfeng (1853), Nanjing was its capital.

At the beginning of the third year (1853), Emperor Xianfeng ordered the registered officials and gentry of the southern and northern provinces of the Yangtze River to hold group training and organize the landlord's armed forces. Zeng Guofan's Xiang army is one of them. He took Luo Zenan's Xiang Yong as the blueprint, and "found a new way, changed its course".

Because the Taiping Army did not concentrate on the Northern Expedition and the Tianjing incident of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the sixth year of Xianfeng (1856), the Qing court got a breathing space. Emperor Xianfeng relied on the Han landlords Zeng Guofan, Zuo, Li Hongzhang and others to collude with foreign forces and jointly put out the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement.
