In 1723, aborigines along the central coastal plain rebelled. Troops from southern Taiwan were sent to put down this revolt, but in their absence, Han settlers in Fengshan County rose up in revolt.{{sfn|Twitchett|2002|p=228}} By 1732, five different ethnic groups were in revolt but the rebellion was defeated by the end of the year.{{sfn|Twitchett|2002|p=228}} During the [[Qianlong Emperor|Qianlong]] period (1735–1796), the 93 ''shufan'' acculturated aborigine villages never rebelled and over 200 non-acculturated aboriginal villages submitted.{{sfn|Ye|2019|p=91}} During the 200 years of Qing rule in Taiwan, the plains aborigines rarely rebelled against the government and the mountain aborigines were left to their own devices until the last 20 years of Qing rule. Most rebellions were caused by Han settlers.{{sfn|Ye|2019|p=106}}

In 1720, there was an upset in Taiwan due to increased taxation. They gathered around [[Zhu Yigui]] and supported him in an anti-Qing rebellion.{{sfn|Li|2019|p=82–83}}<ref name = "rebel">{{cite web | url=https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/feat/archives/2016/04/17/2003644127 | title=Taiwan in Time: Rebels of heaven and earth - Taipei Times | date=17 April 2016 }}</ref> [[Hakka people|Hakka]] leader Lin Junying from the south also joined the rebellion. In March 1720, Zhu and Lin attacked Taiwan County. In less than two weeks, the rebels had defeated Qing forces across Taiwan. The Hakka troops left Zhu to follow Lin north. The Qing sent a fleet under the command of Shi Shibian; the rebellion was defeated and Zhu was executed.{{sfn|Li|2019|p=82–83}}

In 1786, members of the [[Tiandihui]] society were arrested for failing to make tax payments. The Tiandihui broke into the jail and rescued their members. When Qing troops were sent to arrest [[Lin Shuangwen]], the leader of the Tiandihui led his forces to defeat the Qing troops.{{sfn|Standaert|2022|p=225}} Many of the rebel army's troops came from new arrivals from mainland China who could not find land.<ref name = "rebel"/> Lin attacked Changhua County, killing 2,000 civilians. In early 1787, 50,000 Qing troops under Li Shiyao were sent to put down the rebellion. Lin tried to enlist the support of the Hakka people but they sent their troops to support the Qing.{{sfn|Standaert|2022|p=225}} Despite the Tiandihui's ostensibly anti-Qing stance, its members were generally anti-government and were not motivated by ethnic or national interest, resulting in social discord.<ref name = "rebel"/> In 1788, 10,000 Qing troops led by [[Fuk'anggan]] and Hailanqa were sent to Taiwan and defeated the rebellion; Lin was executed.{{sfn|Li|2019|p=83}}{{sfn|Standaert|2022|p=225}}
