The Mingxi sect sent people to dig up Nurha Chi’s ancestral tomb, but why couldn’t they stop Hou Jin’s fortune?
Because his attempt to save the Ming Dynasty by digging up ancestral graves was superstitious, and there was no necessary connection between the two, so the digging of ancestral graves did not affect the rise of Hou Jin at all. When Ming Xizong came to power, there was no place for him in the court, and all political power was in the hands of Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family. Moreover, he himself did not care much about political affairs. Instead, he was very interested in making woodware and was extremely talented. In addition, Ming Xizong also indulged in eating, drinking and having fun all day long. In the end, his body was hollowed out and he suffered from diseases.
Faced with the huge threat of Hou Jin, this weak king could not think of a way to prevent the invasion of the Jin army. Not only that, after he ascended the throne, he also dismissed Xiong Yanbi, a capable general who resisted the Jin Dynasty. As a result, the Ming Dynasty was even less able to fight against Hou Jin, who also took the opportunity to capture many cities. Later, although Xiong Yanbi was used again, he was framed by the eunuchs not long after, and this time he paid the price with his life. Since his death, the situation in Liaodong has become increasingly precarious due to Hou Jin's continuous attacks.
At such a critical moment, the young king Ming Xizong began to believe in the theory of Feng Shui. At that time, a minister in the court told him: The reason why the Hou Jin Dynasty was so smooth sailing was because the feng shui of their ancestors' tombs was good. After hearing these remarks, Mingxi Zong felt that they made sense, so he sent people to Jinling, where the ancestral tomb of Nurha Chi was located, and dug up the entire Jinling. However, this move failed to prevent the rise of Hou Jin. The Ming Dynasty was eventually replaced by the Qing Dynasty established by Hou Jin.
In fact, Houjin was able to rise quickly because it was very powerful, and secondly, it was the Ming Dynasty itself that was adding fuel to the flames. From the actions of Ming Xizong, the king of a country, we can imagine how corrupt the rule of the Ming Dynasty was at that time. It was also fanciful for the king to even try to change the fate of the country by digging up people's ancestral graves.
