The Chu people of the Qing Dynasty compiled "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" based on books such as "The Romance of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty" and "Remaining Documents of the Sui Dynasty" and folklore. Zheng Zhenduo commented that it "had a great influence on later novels. The first half of Chu Renhuo's "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" was completely stolen from "The Romance of the Romance". The description and structure of "A Dream of Red Mansions" are also inspired by "The Romance of the Romance". It is indeed a great work that is full of water."
In the theme of "the greatness is nothing more than the resentment of the people, and the glory is all blurred with blood", the novel vividly shows the life of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, who was arrogant, extravagant, indulgent and indulgent, and ended up with the overthrow of the country and the ruin of his reputation.
The novel is based on official history and Song Dynasty people's notebook novels, organized and perfunctory, without violating historical facts, with a clear context, delicate description, and fresh and natural writing style; it has the smoothness of a storybook novel without its vulgarity, and the elegance of literati prose without its obscurity, achieving a relatively high artistic achievement.
Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, was a famous king who subjugated his country in the historical trend. This book focuses on exposing and condemning the corrupt life throughout his life: Yang Guang was born extremely smart and talented, but he was insidious and greedy by nature. He first sought to seize the throne of the prince, and then molested his concubine, Mrs. Xuanhua, when his father Yang Jian was seriously ill, angering Yang Jian to death, and ascended to the throne of emperor in one fell swoop. From then on, he began his lewd and indulgent emperor's life. After Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty came to the throne, he was extravagant and indulgent, regardless of the interests of the country and the lives of the people, and blindly pursued personal enjoyment. He first designated Luoyang as the eastern capital, carried out extensive construction projects, built three mountains, five lakes and sixteen courtyards, and selected beauties from all over the world.
Reader comments
This book depicts Yang Guang's character and experience in detail, allowing me to see a real and multi-faceted Yang Guang. Although he is the king of a subjugated country, the description of him in the book is not limited to this, and also shows his intelligence and political methods. I like this way of writing that fully presents the characters, which gives me a deeper understanding of historical figures. Moreover, the writing style of this book is also very good and worth reading.
