On the twenty-first day of the third month of the seventeenth year of Jianxing, Princess Hengshan died. She was buried in the imperial mausoleum with the honors of an empress.
On the twenty-second day of that month, Emperor Jianxing died, and the Crown Prince ascended the throne.
Before three months had passed, the new emperor voluntarily abdicated, and the Empress Dowager ascended the throne as emperor.
Two months later, the Empress issued an edict stripping Princess Hengshan of her title, demoting her to commoner, and ordering her coffin reburied with a defrocked monk.
