Regarding the Sui Dynasty, the first impression is always the death of the second generation of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, the Grand Canal, and even the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The short-lived dynasty will never leave many memories, and it is easier for us to remember the glory of the Tang Dynasty after the Sui Dynasty. However, the Sui Dynasty should also be cleaned up from the dust of history and displayed in front of more people. Yang Jian, the founder of the Sui Dynasty, the founder of a unified empire, the emperor who ended the great turmoil in China around 380 years ago, was also a benevolent monarch, an unqualified father, and a henpecked husband. Labels such as this cannot fully demonstrate his achievements. They were to continue Chinese civilization, set an example and foreshadowing in advance for the prosperous Tang Dynasty that would eventually come, and reduce the difficulty and progress of the unification of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the Sui Dynasty not only had Yang Jian, but also had a powerful father Yang Zhong (Pu Liuruzhong) who laid the foundation of the family, and Yang Guang, a prodigal son. In the end, the Great Sui Dynasty was fixed in 618 AD. The Great Sui Dynasty enjoyed the country for 37 years and then died in a hurry. History is always surprisingly similar. In the past, the Qin Dynasty laid the foundation of China. After the death of the second generation, the Han Dynasty took over. Later, there was the love-hate relationship between the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Therefore, I want to write a story about more than 1,400 years ago to the best of my knowledge, without making it difficult to understand, and I will fictionalize the secondary characters I imagined to connect the progress of the story, to show the founding process of the Sui Dynasty, and to show the Sui Dynasty in my mind. But this story is not history, please treat it as a chat after dinner.
