Wendi is very strict with his children. When he found that Prince Yong Yang lived a luxurious life and liked to talk ostentatiously, he told him, "Since ancient times, no emperor can sit in a long chair. You are a prince, how can you not pay attention to thrift! "
At that time, the King of Jin discovered his father's mind, pretended to be honest, showed filial piety to Wendi and Dugu, and was especially frugal and simple, thus defrauding Wendi and Dugu's trust. Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty abolished the title of Prince Yong Yang and changed Yang Guang to Prince. Later, he found that Yang Guang was a poor man and wanted to recall Yong Yang, but it was too late. Yang Guangmou assassinated the 63-year-old Wendi who was ill in bed and seized the throne.
Yang Di moved to Luoyang only four months after he ascended the throne. At that time, hundreds of thousands of migrant workers were dug from Longmen, Shanxi, and finally connected with Guanzhong in Shangluo, with a total length of thousands of miles, which played a barrier role in the newly built capital.
After the completion of Luoyang Du Dong, 2 million migrant workers will be employed every month. First-class timber and stones used to build palaces were brought from the areas south of the Yangtze River and north of Wuling Mountain. Due to the load-bearing conditions at that time, thousands of people had to pull a huge post. In the west of Luoyang, a big garden named Xiyuan was built, and a 200-mile-long Fiona Fang was specially designed for Yang Di. There are five lakes in the southern half of Xiyuan Park. Dragon boats and phoenix boats are rippling on the lake. Peach blossoms and willows are planted on the river bank. There are several long dams by the lake, and there is a pavilion on the dam every 100 step.
A "sea" was built in the northern half of the West Garden. There are three "holy mountains" in the sea, namely Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou. There are exquisite pavilions on the mountain, and a canal connects the "sea" with the five lakes. Emperor Yang Di also built more than 40 independent palaces, looking for beautiful trees, exotic materials and exotic rocks all over the country to amuse himself.
In order to control the whole country, make the goods from the south of the Yangtze River be transported to the north more conveniently, and at the same time, he can visit various places conveniently, so Yang Di has built the Grand Canal with a length of more than 5,000 miles. There are several steps to build the canal: first, open the Tongji canal from Xiyuan in Luoyang to Yangshan on the south bank of Huaihe River, that is, introduce the valley water and Luoshui in Luoyang into the Yellow River, and then introduce the Yellow River water into Huaihe River; A canal named "Hangou" opened by Fu Cha, King of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period was dredged from Jiangdu, and the Huaihe River was connected with the Yangtze River. In this way, the waterway transportation from Luoyang to Jiangnan is very convenient.
Since then, a canal named Yongji Canal has been extended from the north bank of the Yellow River in Luoyang to Zhuo Jun County. Then from Jingkou opposite Jiangdu to Yuhang, a canal called Jiangnan was dug.
When these four canals are connected, a grand canal runs through the north and south, which strengthens the connection between the capital and the rich Hebei and Jiangnan, and plays an important role in China's economic and cultural development and national unity.
During the fourteen years of Yang Di's rule, four voyages lasted eleven years. With this canal, he sailed three times in Jiangdu alone, and built tens of thousands of dragon boats and various ships for this purpose. Along the way, Yang Di and Xiao Huanghou took two four-story dragon boats decorated like palaces. Then the royal ladies, nobles, civil servants and officers took thousands of floats; Finally, thousands of big ships were taken away by the guards, full of logistics materials. This huge fleet lined up for 200 miles in the canal.
More than 80,000 migrant workers specially pull optical fibers for the motorcade. The fleet marched in the canal, and the coast was guarded by cavalry; When the fleet stopped, local state and county officials forced people to hold a banquet to "provide food".
Emperor Yang Di also sailed from this land to the north. To this end, he dug thousands of miles of lanes and launched many wars. For example, in June12, the first War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea used10.3 million troops and more than 3 million migrant workers. Ships carrying military supplies are connected by thousands of miles. And migrant workers are bitter and tired. Many people died on the side of the road, but the war ended in fiasco.
When Yang Di ascended the throne, the Sui Dynasty was very prosperous. Emperor Yang Di was jealous of his talent and killed innocent people. Every year, he treats millions of migrant workers. People can't bear the weight, so they have to fight back. Yang Di's abnormal behavior soon destroyed the Sui Dynasty, and he was killed by General Yu Wenhuaji in Jiangdu.
