At that time, Emperor Chongzhen killed Wei Zhongxian immediately after he succeeded to the throne. He thought that the Ming Dynasty could get back on track, but unexpectedly, without the control of Wei Zhongxian, the civil servants in the imperial court began to be unscrupulous. From the late Emperor Chongzhen, the civil servants of the imperial court began to do some corrupt things in private, which not only seriously infringed on the interests of the imperial court, but also seriously harmed the interests of the people. Because of this, waves of peasant uprisings broke out all over the country.
Apart from corruption, these civil servants are bullies. In the face of the peasant uprising, these civil servants suggested that Emperor Chongzhen suppress it and behead the leader as an example. However, in the face of various forces in Mongolia, these civil servants gave suggestions for peace. If there is a conflict with military commanders, these civil servants rely on their own golden words to persuade Emperor Chongzhen to guard against these military commanders, which leads to a dirty atmosphere in the Ming court.
Later, Huang taiji led the Qing army, and Emperor Chongzhen had to concentrate the strength of the whole country against Huang taiji. Although General Zhou Shixian wounded Huang Taiji, which led to the temporary retreat of the Qing army, Li Zicheng, the uprising force of the Central Plains, also invaded Beijing at this time. Emperor Chongzhen knew that there was nothing he could do, so he kicked the dragon chair over, leaving six big characters? Civil servants can be killed by everyone? . Emperor Chongzhen believed to his death that the Ming Dynasty would perish because of the misleading of these civil servants, so he left these six words to tell future rulers that all civil servants in the Ming Dynasty were not worth staying.
