During Qing dynasty, those that rebel and promote independence were dealt with very harshly. Heard of lingchi 凌迟 ?

As above.

During the Taiping rebellion that ended in 1864, many of the leaders that were caught were punished in this way.

Depends on the emperor.

Hongwu (aka Zhu Yuanzhang) likes to use this method - ling chi execution
Usually the emperor’s close inner circle of most trusted senior top court officials will be awarded poisoned wine to ownself drink for swift death and the body has to be kept whole.
