Peter I

*Peter and Evdokia had another squabble, Peter never loved Evdokia.. It was a marriage at the insistence of his mother, a marriage of convenience, and if Peter tried to somehow make it more comfortable.. But now his patience has run out..

• Evdokia irritated Peter, she loved him, wanted his attention, wrote letters to him, and to their son Alexei.. Peter did not answer the letters.. And even cheated on her with Catherine.. It was not that Peter hated Evdokia, but her behavior upsets him *

• and everything got to the point that Peter ordered Evdokia to be sent to a monastery *

Evdokia: let your St. Petersburg perish, let the river flood it!

• Evdokia blurted out through anger and tears.
