The Empress Season 2 Plot
Elisabeth is imprisoned within the palace gates at the conclusion of The Empress for breaking royal protocol (acting compassionately) after going to the iron factory and lending a young girl in need her shoes.
Elisabeth slips into despair as she loses all faith that anything would be done to save the needy and joins Franz’s brother Maximillian in partying the days away, further tarnishing her reputation.
Archduchess Sophie, who is clearly at her wit’s end with the disobedient Empress, suggests that Elisabeth return to Bavaria, and Franz, who engages in a heated argument with his wife and accuses her of having relations with his brother, agrees. But Elisabeth finds out she is finally pregnant before Franz orders her to leave. Unfortunately, the Empress is devastated and decides not to tell her husband the news.
When Elisabeth is ready to leave, a sizable, enraged throng that had been assembling at the palace gates to criticise the Emperor has completely blocked the exit. Elisabeth asks that the gates be opened even if the guards want to turn the carriage around. The Empress greets the throng and says, “I see you,” before informing them that she is expecting a child while Franz and Sophia look on.
Well, assuming the show keeps telling the real tale accurately, we do know that the Archduchess will only continue to make Elisabeth’s life inside the castle gates miserable from this point on. Just 10 months after marrying the Duke, the empress gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Archduchess Sophie of Austria.

The elder Archduchess gave the infant her own name without Elisabeth’s permission and took full parental control, barring Elisabeth from caring for or nursing her own child.
A year after Elisabeth gave birth to another daughter, it is believed that Sophie wrote a spiteful pamphlet in which she chastised her daughter-in-law for failing to bear a male heir. We anticipate that everything will be covered in season two now that it has received approval.
