Wei Zhongxian warned Chongzhen before he died. Why didn't Chongzhen listen?

The reason is that Emperor Chongzhen thinks that he has got rid of the big trouble of the imperial court and is still immersed in a happy atmosphere. But he didn't know that Lindong Party gradually became the only political party in the court, and no one could stop them. After Chongzhen understood it, it was too late. Lindong Party represents the interests of the landlords in the south of the Yangtze River, so to some extent, after Lindong Party came to power, the tax revenue in the south of the Yangtze River would be greatly reduced, and Emperor Chongzhen could do nothing about it. Moreover, Lindong party member is only an armchair strategist, while Zhao Kuo is a first-class waste. Emperor Chongzhen understood the meaning of the eight characters left by Wei Zhongxian, but it was too late. Emperor Chongzhen paid a huge price for this. The country didn't have enough silver to suppress the Manchu dynasty, and finally Daming perished under the influence of internal and external troubles.

Emperor Chongzhen thought eunuchs were the culprit. During the reign of Emperor Mingxi, the state power was in the hands of Wei Zhongxian, who only played with carpenters every day. He also knows that Wei Zhongxian is indispensable, otherwise Lindong Party will dominate, and Wei Zhongxian is unambiguous in state affairs. He was very concerned about the northeast war and didn't deduct any money. On the contrary, he increased the taxes of landlords in the south of the Yangtze River. After Emperor Chongzhen acceded to the throne, he thought that Wei Zhongxian harmed the imperial court and oppressed the people, and eunuchs should not interfere with the imperial court. Unfortunately, he didn't understand what his brother meant. After the defeat of Yan Party, Wei Zhongxian warned Emperor Chongzhen before he died, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't take it to heart. It was not as good as Wei Zhongxian's sincerity until he found out that Lindong Party was playing with the emperor.

Since ancient times, eunuchs have only been a scourge. In history, eunuchs held power, indicating that imperial power declined and the empire fell apart, but Wei Zhongxian did not. Although he is in office, he still respects the emperor. Unlike the eunuchs before, they held the monarch hostage and treated the emperor as a puppet. Although Wei Zhongxian is domineering, it is not harmful to the country. Unfortunately, his behavior completely touched the imperial power. If he kept a low profile, Emperor Chongzhen would not be so heartless. Emperor Chongzhen got rid of Wei Zhongxian because his power has exceeded his due power, so Emperor Chongzhen will not tolerate such a powerful minister.

Wei Zhongxian's dismissal is inevitable, but it is not the time yet. At this moment, Lindong Party talents are the real enemies of Emperor Chongzhen.
