Elisabeth Allès wrote that the relationship between Hui Muslims and Han people continued to be normal in the Henan area, with no ramifications or consequences from the Muslim rebellions which occurred in other areas. Allès wrote in the document "Notes on some joking relationships between Hui and Han villages in Henan" published by the French Centre for Research on Contemporary China that "The major Muslim revolts in the middle of the nineteenth century which involved the Hui in Shaanxi, Gansu and Yunnan, as well as the Uyghurs in Xinjiang, do not seem to have had any direct effect on this region of the central plain."[136] The Hui Muslim population of Beijing was unaffected by the Muslim rebels during the Dungan revolt.[137]
