Empress Xiaomucheng (died 17 February 1808) was the first consort of the Daoguang Emperor of the Qing dynasty.
Empress Xiaomucheng was born in the Manchu Niohuru clan, which was under the Bordered Yellow Banner. Her personal name is unknown. Her father was Buyandalai (布顏達賚), a third class duke who served as the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue. She was first mentioned in historical records when she married Mianning on 22 December 1796.
Lady Niohuru did not have any children. She died in 1808 and was interred in the Eastern Qing tombs.
When Mianning succeeded his father in 1820 and was enthroned as the Daoguang Emperor, he granted Lady Niohuru the posthumous title "Empress Xiaomu". In 1828, there was a leak in the Eastern Qing tombs, resulting in flooding. In the following year, Lady Niohuru's casket was temporarily moved to the Baohua Ravine Hall (寶華峪正殿). In 1835, her casket was transferred to the Muling Mausoleum in the Western Qing tombs.
