[1] In the 5th year of Chongzhen, Noble Consort Tian gave birth to her first child, a son named Cizhao, who would disappear during the invasion of Beijing in 1644.
One year later she gave birth to another son named Cihuan, entitled as Prince Daoling (悼靈王).
In 1641 she was named as Imperial Noble Consort (皇貴妃; huáng guì fēi) and one year later in 1642 she died in Palace of Heavenly Grace (承乾宫).
After her death, her sister, Tian Shuying (田淑英), was meant to enter the imperial harem.
After the fall of Beijing in 1644 to the armies of the rebel Li Zicheng of the Shun dynasty, the bodies of the Chongzhen Emperor and Empress Zhou were buried in the tomb of Noble Consort Tian, which was declared as Imperial Mausoleum Siling by Li Zicheng, with a much smaller scale compared to the other imperial mausoleums built for Ming emperors.
