Most of the magnates in historical dramas have their own teams of thinkers to provide good advice. Unfortunately, sometimes think tanks don't do the right thing, and insiders can make decisions that are harmful to the country because they are powerless or misled by villains. Let's take a look back at some of the "bad idea" cases in history.
In the late Ming Dynasty, there was a situation in the imperial court, and several emperors in a row did not give their strength. Especially Ming Yingzong is even more bizarre, seriously exaggerating his own ability, and never knowing the height of the sky. When Warat invaded the frontier, Ming Yingzong coveted this opportunity and willfully set out to fight. Although the ministers dissuaded them, Wang Zhen and other close attendants coaxed the lord to lead the troops to recruit in person. Surrounded by them, Ming Yingzong insisted on going his own way, bypassing the ministers and leading the army to the battlefield. In Tumubao, Wang Zhen fooled Ming Yingzong that the grain had not yet arrived, and the army rested on the spot. However, during this period, Ming Yingzong did not pay attention to how to defend against the enemy, but instead hunted with the people around him, and regarded it as a recreation. This gave the Warat people the opportunity to cut off the water source, which made the Ming soldiers lose their spirits. The Warat army won easily, Yingzong**. This battle caused the Ming Dynasty to lose countless troops, and Yingzong also lost face, and exchanged money for personal freedom. After that, the Ming Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline, and it could never return to the past.
It is known that after the death of Qin Shi Huang, Qin II Hu Hai ascended the throne, and then this person destroyed the foundation of his teacher Qin Shi Huang. The original edict was supposed to be inherited by the eldest son Fusu, but Prime Minister Li Si was afraid that his power would get out of control, so he convinced the eunuch Zhao Gao to join forces to frame Fusu and Meng Tian, forged the edict, and established Hu Hai as the emperor. However, Li Si was in Zhao Gao's calculations, and in the end he could not escape the catastrophe. The new emperor, Hu Hai, had no talent for governing the country, but he loved pleasure, and eventually the Qin Dynasty fell.
During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the world was in turmoil, wars were continuous, and the people were displaced. In order to solve this problem, some advocated the introduction of a foreign population in the belief that it would fill the gap among the common people. The rulers were intrigued by this idea and accepted a large foreign population. The tragedy is that the rulers are negligent, and these alien races begin to form alliances and establish new regimes. By the time the ruler realized that he wanted to suppress it, the situation was irreparable, and the civil war was raging, and there was a scene of "five nonsense and chaos".
