Chapter 66 Emperor Yang of Sui at the Silk Road Feast (Part 1)

There was such an emperor in history who had been in power for a short period of time and had only been an emperor for fourteen years, but his workload was amazing.

He went to Yangzhou twice, inspected the Turkic River, guided Vietnam, and recruited Ryukyu. As the supreme leader, he personally carried out the recruitment work. He ran around, stayed in Chang'an, the capital for less than two years, and lived in Luoyang for less than three years.

It can be said that his actions are all for realizing the dream of a powerful country with a vast territory.

Who is he? He is Yang Guang, the Emperor Yang of Sui, the eternal emperor.

He dug the canal and blessed the people. He toured the Hexi Corridor westward and held a grand banquet at the foot of the Qilian Mountains. The leaders of the Western Regions came to the banquet.

In order to eliminate the threat from Tuyuhun to the Hexi Corridor, Emperor Yang of Sui personally led the army, which can be said to be a feat.

Look, our Sesame brother and sister were also taken to Zhangye at the foot of Qilian Mountain by the wooden door and visited the scene in person.

"Brother, where is this place? It feels so prosperous and lively."

Zhiguoguo excitedly held Madoudou's hand and shuttled through the market. Looking at the merchants wearing different clothes, Zhiguoguo looked curious.

Ma Doudou looked at the surrounding environment and found that the buildings here are different from Chang'an and Luoyang, and the clothes on people also have their own advantages.

"Sister, this place doesn't look like Chang'an or Luoyang, but you see that the market is lively. Otherwise, we'll know if we'll go for a walk first and ask people later."

After saying that, Ma Doudou took Zhiguoguo's hand and walked along the market.

"Brother, have you noticed that there are so many camels here? We didn't see so many camels when we were in Daxing City."

When Zhiguoguo saw many camels, she was very excited.

I had close contact with camels before, but they had been on the way to the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty through the wooden door.

"Sister, if there is a camel here, there should be a desert nearby. Let's go, there is a noodle stall in front of you. Let's ask the noodle stall owner."

Seeing that Madoudou and Zhiguo were wearing strange clothes, the noodle stall owner looked up and down at Madoudou and Zhiguoguo.

"Boss, we came from afar. We saw red silk hanging at the door of each household, but what are the happy events?"

Ma Doudou first broke the deadlock, saluted the boss of the front stall, and asked the boss of the front stall.

"You said this red silk, this is His Majesty's western tour of the Hexi Corridor. He held a grand event in Zhangye to personally invite the kings of the 27 countries in the Western Regions. It's so lively, and you really have a good reputation."

Ma Doudou was a little surprised when he heard this. He had never heard Zhi's mother say that an emperor had visited Zhangye in the Western Regions.

Ma Doudou asked uncertainly: "Boss, are you talking about the emperor of your country? I wonder what this emperor is called?"

When the noodle stall owner saw Ma Doudou asking about the emperor's name, he was so scared that he stepped forward and covered Ma Doudou's mouth.

"This is the fifth year of Daye, the Great Sui Dynasty."

The noodle stall owner was very cautious. He leaned into Madoudou's ear and replied quietly, fearing that someone would cause unnecessary trouble if he heard it.

When he heard the noodle stall owner said it was the Great Sui Dynasty in the fifth year of Daye, Ma Doudou remembered that the year name used by Emperor Yang of Sui who built the Grand Canal was Daye, and he was also called Emperor Daye.

"Boss, where is the banquet? Can we see it?"

Zhiguoguo asked the boss of the stall in anticipation, and after all, she invited the kings of 27 countries to have a banquet. The show and the scene must be spectacular.

"How can we ordinary people see it? We only know that this time, our Majesty set out from Chang'an, there were civil and military officials, concubines and a hundred thousand troops accompanying us, and that formation was so powerful."
