the crown prince that's a spirit now is the son of the current king
So the four princes of the late king didn't actually die because of the pond spirit but because of the current king's biological mother, she poisoned all of them and it was just convenient timing that the most favoured concubine of the late king died at the same time so that she could frame it on her. The current king's mother killed all the princes so that her son could be king.
The pond spirit killed herself not the dowager and before she died she said she would kill all the royalty but it was never her
The person that burned the group of court ladies at the salt storehouse was also the mother of the current king and that was to in a way frame the Queen Dowager.
