Sui Dynasty: the Elegy of the Founding Emperor to Jiangdu

Let me make a statement first: Don't dwell on the word "romantic" and let your imagination run wild. We don't write about sexy gossip here, we don't reveal the secrets of the palace, and there are no bloody dramas about climbing on the wall in the middle of the night and governing the country with a pillow. After all, the Sui Dynasty only lived for 38 years. It was busy with unification, building canals, and establishing imperial examinations, and there was really no time to stage those grinding love and hatred. The "romantic" here is the domineering power that ended three hundred years of division in the light of swords, the courage to set thousands of years of rules when the world changed, and the magical drama of a group of fierce people twisting troubled times into a prosperous age and then quickly destroying the prosperous age. Speaking of which, the Sui Dynasty was quite aggrieved. With the metaphysics of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties as the foundation, and the glorious Tang Dynasty shining brightly behind it, it was like a "tool man dynasty" that silently paved the way. It had obviously done a lot of major things that would affect China for thousands of years, but it was always brushed aside. You must know that without the foundation laid by the Sui Dynasty, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty may have been decades late; without the three provinces and six ministries and the imperial examination system established by the Sui Dynasty, the feudal dynasties in the future may still be struggling in darkness. It's like rice in takeout. You may not remember its taste, but without it, no matter how fragrant the dish is, you won't be able to enjoy it. In the past 38 years, the two protagonists who have been the most out of the industry can be called a model of "father fights for strength, son fights for death".
