An appalling lie fabricated by Emperor Wendi of the Sui Dynasty deceived people and hid the royal secrets of the Sui Dynasty for thousands of years.

198 1 In February, the 9-year-old Emperor Jing of the Northern Zhou Dynasty "abdicated" the throne to his nominal grandfather Sui Wendi, that is, the historical Sui Wendi. Emperor Wendi was 40 years old when he acceded to the throne. In its prime, it created a prosperous situation of "the rule of emperors". But as soon as he ascended the throne, he fabricated lies and deceived the world for thousands of years. What kind of lie is this?

Generally speaking, to change the dynasty, the new emperor should deify himself and enhance the family image. Sui Wendi Sui Wendi is no exception. While he mythologized himself, he also gave his family a noble aura, which contained the biggest secret of the Sui Dynasty royal family! It turns out that Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty pretended to be his ancestor, claiming that he was born in Hongnongyang, but he was actually an "impostor"!

According to the Sui Shu, "Emperor Wendi of the Emperor Gaozu, surnamed Yang, was born in Huayin, Hongnong County", which shows that Wendi was born in a famous family in Guanzhong-Hongnong Yang. After this record, the history books also describe the family background of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty:

"Han Taiwei shock Sun Xuanzhi eight generations, Shi Yan for Peiping satrap. Xuan Shengyuanshou was born in Wuchuan Town at the end of Wei Dynasty, and his descendants were influenced by his family. Yuan Shou gave birth to Taiyuan Taishou Huiwa, Huiwa gave birth to Pingyuan Taishou Fierce, and gave birth to Ningyuan General Zhen, Zhen Yi, and loyalty and righteousness were imperial examinations. "

This was edited by Wei Zhi during Emperor Taizong's reign. This record is naturally based on the materials of royal archives in the Sui Dynasty. Li Tang royal family is closely related to Yang Sui royal family, and Li Shimin is Yang Di's son-in-law, so there is no doubt about the birth of Sui royal family. However, the royal family of Sui Dynasty was born in the Yang family of Hongnong, which was just a lie made up by Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty.

First of all, the genealogy fabricated by Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty is full of loopholes. According to the Chronicle of Sui Shu, Sun Yangfu of Yang Zhen was the seventeenth grandson of Yang Zhen, and the tenth grandson was pregnant, giving birth to the sixth grandchildren Qu Shengxuan and Yan Beiping Kui, while the royal family of Sui Dynasty wrote eight grandchildren, which is unconvincing. In addition, this contradicts the record that Yang Lie is the son of Yang Yuanshou in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty.

Secondly, the marriage of Wendi's father was exposed. According to historical records, Yang Zhong, the father of Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, had been to Shandong, during which he married Lu Kutao, a daughter of Lu family. Bitter peach was born in poverty, and his family were all "hillbillies". After Emperor Wen proclaimed himself emperor, these people made a lot of jokes. If Wendi was born in the Yang family of Hongnong, they would never marry the Lu family, because the gentry at that time would never marry a humble family.

One more thing, it is also very telling. After Emperor Wen proclaimed himself emperor, he wanted to establish his ancestors as emperor according to the rules of the "Seven Emperors". Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty only made his father Yang Zhong the Emperor of Wu Yuan, and did not make him the other ancestor. So, why is this happening? It can only show that the so-called Yang Zhen, Yang Lie and Yang Yuanshou are all false, but the pursuit of seals will expose their own problems.

In fact, not only the Sui Dynasty took Yang, who was a hongnong, as its ancestor, but also Li, a dragon, as its ancestor. Teacher Chen, a historian, once commented: "It's a pity that Li Ke's lineage, which claimed to be Hongnong Yang Zhen and Long, has been passed down from generation to generation, and all historians have been deceived so far." So how do they pretend to be famous? The reason is also very simple. At that time, after all, it was the era of gentry.
