The opening inventory of the top ten young emperors

[Especially during the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui, the Turks were in internal strife and Qimin Khan had nowhere to stay. Emperor Wen of Sui took him in and even made a royal lady a princess and married her to him.]

[Later, the Sui Dynasty sent troops to help Qimin Khan put down the rebellion of Western Turks and sent him back to Eastern Turks to become the real Khan.]
[The Sui Dynasty was very kind to Qimin Khan, who ruled the Turkic people.]

[Therefore, thinking of this favor, after Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, the old Khan did not forget the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects and came to pay homage to him in person.]

【But why did it develop to this point? 】
[Of course it was because of the good planning of our Sui Emperor Yang Guang! ]

[After Qimin Khan unified the Eastern and Western Turkic tribes, the Turkic tribes became increasingly powerful, and many small countries became dependent on him, and he also became the overlord of the north. ]
[However, no matter how strong the Turks were at that time, they could not match the Sui Dynasty. To be honest, the territories of all subsequent dynasties could not match the Sui Dynasty, even the Tang Dynasty.]
[It can be seen that Emperor Wen of Sui and his wife Yang Jian were almost unmatched in their civil and military achievements.]

[However, when Qimin Khan died and Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, the situation changed somewhat.]
[Emperor Yang of Sui felt that if the Turks became powerful, they would threaten his rule.]
[In preparation for a rainy day, after the death of the old Khan, the Sui Dynasty began to deliberately divide the Turks. ]

[In general, Emperor Yang of Sui had a lot of things to do. And in his concept, he did not have the idea of ​​doing things step by step. He just did everything he thought of and carried out the work in a multi-pronged way. It seemed that this was not in vain for his reign title "Daye". ]

【What did Emperor Yang of Sui do? 】
[He first supported the Western Turkic Khan Nijue Choro, and also sent spies to stir up trouble between the Eastern Turkic and Tuyuhun, hoping that the world would not be in chaos.]
[Then, he also wanted to make the daughter of the royal family a princess and marry her to Chiji, the son of Qimin Khan and the younger brother of Eastern Turkic Shibi Khan, and make him the Khan of the South. This was a blatant deliberate attempt to divide the two brothers and cause them to fight among themselves.]

[How arrogant must one be to resort to such an "open conspiracy"! Do you think others are fools? ]

[So, Chiji was not a fool, so he naturally did not dare to accept it and immediately refused. Not only that, he also told his eldest brother everything.]
[Such a blatant attempt to sow discord is simply a disregard for him as the Khan. How could Shibi Khan not be angry? ]

[In fact, when Emperor Yang of Sui was going to conquer Goryeo, he wanted the Eastern Turks to follow him. But after what happened before, Shibi Khan ignored him and left him aside.]
[So, when he learned that Emperor Yang of Sui was coming to tour the north, Shibi Khan followed the suggestion of attacking the city without hesitation. He just wanted to let Emperor Yang of Sui know that he was not easy to bully.]

【It is impossible that Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was unaware of Shibi Khan's anger. Under such circumstances, he went on a tour to the north and walked into a trap. I wonder if he had become so arrogant that he had lost his mind.】
[A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone an emperor. ]
[And this matter, no matter how you look at it, looks like a person digging a hole for himself. ]

[The result was that the prestige of the Sui Dynasty was completely destroyed. In the eyes of all the monarchs of the vassal states, this suzerain state existed in name only. Coupled with the peasant uprisings and the rebellion of the aristocratic families in the country, the Sui Dynasty had reached its end and it was difficult to turn back.]

[By the way, there is another little story about this Turkic siege. Li Shimin was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time, and he joined the army and joined the team to defend the king. It is said that he also made considerable contributions in this battle to defend the king.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, in this case, he did save Emperor Yang of Sui. I wonder how Emperor Yang of Sui would feel if he knew that he was Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who created the Zhenguan Reign and made all nations come to pay tribute! ]

[Oh, by the way, Li Shimin's grandmother was the fourth sister of Empress Dugu of Emperor Wen of Sui. To be honest, Li Yuan was Yang Guang's cousin, and Li Shimin had to call Yang Guang his uncle.] Yang Jian wanted to ask Qimin Khan to come over and give him a good punishment, but after hearing what Tianmu said, he couldn't say the last few words.
Not only that, the two words "Li Yuan" kept repeating in his mind.

Sure enough, it was them, it was indeed Li Yuan’s family from the Longxi Li clan. Was it their family that overthrew his Sui Dynasty?
It seems that the previous rumors were not groundless!

At this moment, Li Guang, who had been crazy just now, seemed to wake up, stood up from the ground with his eyes wide open, and then shook off the guards who were controlling him, pulled out the handkerchief stuffed in his mouth, and shouted hoarsely.
"Li Yuan, it's Li Yuan, father, I'm going to kill them, kill their whole family, kill this family of traitors!"

"Shut up, you bastard."
This time, Yang Jian did not hesitate, but had Yang Guang gagged and taken away. His mind was spinning rapidly.

Li Yuan lost his father when he was young, and Yang Jian and his wife treated him very well, and Li Yuan was very close to them. He used to be his personal guard, and it can be said that he was a person that Yang Jian trusted and was close to.
After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was conferred the title of Duke of Tang.

But is this how his good cousin treats their Great Sui Dynasty?
A hint of coldness flashed in Yang Jian's eyes.

Yang Jian still remembered that at the beginning of the year, Li Yuan was sent by him to Longzhou to serve as the governor. At that time, he also heard that his wife was about to give birth, so he took his wife with him.
At that time, he still sighed that his cousin was selfless and could be of great use. Upon hearing that his son Erlang was born safely, the queen sent him a reward.

Now it seems that this newly born Erlang is the Li Shimin mentioned in the sky curtain, who is later called Emperor Taizong of Tang, the first person to create the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Thinking of this, let alone Yang Guang, even he just now, the first thought in his mind was to kill Li Yuan's family to prevent future troubles!

[Yes, the relationship between the Li family and the Yang family was so close. However, in the end, he still started a rebellion, eventually overthrew the rule of the Sui Dynasty and established the prosperous Tang Dynasty.]
[But everyone only sees Li Yuan's rebellion, but they don't know that when Emperor Yang of Sui was willful and reckless, causing wars both inside and outside the Sui Dynasty, rebels everywhere, and peasant uprisings everywhere. Li Yuan did his best to help him suppress internal and external troubles. ]

[However, no matter how well he did, he could only delay the demise of the Sui Dynasty.]
[The various rebel forces continued to emerge, like suppressing one problem but causing another. During this process, many generals also rebelled.]
[Even if Li Yuan had not rebelled, Emperor Yang of Sui's Sui Dynasty had already been deserted by everyone. Because even the common people knew that the Sui Dynasty would end sooner or later.]

"Even the common people know that the Sui Dynasty is about to end?"
Yang Jian took a step back, his body already shaky.
