It's possible.

The struggle between the Ming Dynasty emperors and the scholar-officials was intense, with the scholar-officials often slandering the emperors. For example, Zhu Wuzong was indeed a skilled military leader, but they painted him as someone who neglected his duties.

Meanwhile, the scholar-officials were revered as saints, like Wang Yangming. Wang Yangming led a group of refugees to quell the Rebellion of Prince Ning, which was almost more impressive than Zhuge Liang. One might wonder if Prince Ning was actually under the control of the scholar-officials from the beginning.

The scholar-officials also engaged in dirty deeds, including supporting the Manchus and the Japanese pirates. In short, if the emperor was not a good person, then the scholar-officials were completely worthless.

Therefore, this group of people wrote books to stigmatize the emperor; otherwise, many things would remain inexplicable.
