"Qing. Phoenix-class. It brought the first group of colonists to Shanxi."

- - Sif

The UNSC Qing was a Phoenix-class colony ship responsible for colonizing the Outer colony Shanxi during the first centuries of human extrasolar colonization, bringing both colonists and an Atmosphere Processing Plant to colonize and terraform the planet.

History
The UNSC Qing colonized Shanxi in 2338, bringing colonists from Earth, mostly coming from China and Brazil and an Atmosphere Processing Plant to terraform the planet. For the next years, they organized into the planet and formed its capital, Wengchang. After the planet was colonized, Wengchang remained in the planet's orbit to assist into the construction of the Tiara and its space elevators. When they were finished, the Qing was used to serve as a power plant for Wengchang. From 2489 onwards, Loki stood at the Qing as the colonial administrator of Shanxi.
