When Zhu Rouze, the queen of Spring Garden, was 20 years old, she often ate bananas when she was pregnant. Her sister changed all the almonds in almond tea into peach kernels that would hurt the fetus, and gave birth to a stillbirth, which led to dystocia, blood collapse and death of both mother and son.
Chunyuan died with her child, leaving the emperor with lifelong regret. Before she died, Chunyuan told the emperor to take good care of her, not to abandon her, and to apologize for her fall from grace.
The Relationship between Empress Chunyuan and Empress Ren Jing Palace
The Queen of Spring Garden is the sister of the Queen of Ren Jing Palace. The Queen of Ren Jing Palace also loved the emperor, and the Spring Garden stole the man she loved. At first, the emperor promised Ren Jing Palace that if she gave birth to a prince, she would be the queen.
But Chunyuan also took away her position, and even her children were forced to become concubines. All this made her unbearable. Finally, she designed poison to make Chunyuan die in childbirth, and both mother and son died.
Ironically, the Queen of Ren Jing Palace herself was made Queen because of her last words of Chunyuan, which she hated most. She finally got the position she wanted, but she never got the love of the emperor, because the love of the emperor always belongs to Chunyuan.
