At the moment when Yang Guang fell into depression, Gao Yang's voice sounded at the same time.

"Now the overall image of Yang Guang before he ascended the throne and in his later years, a cruel emperor who killed his father and committed such unethical things, and Yang Guang who designed his elder brother to rebel only for himself to be in power, there is no doubt that he is a tyrant and a fool! "

"But this conflicts with the image I mentioned at the beginning. Yang Guang can be a tyrant, but he can't be a fool!"

"Just because of the three major things he did during his reign!"

Yang Guang wiped away the muddy tears from the corners of his eyes, a little excited.

"Which major events are they?"

Zhu Di, Li Er, Zhao Kuangyin and other emperors all squinted their eyes.

Su Shi, Su Che, Wang Anshi, and Ouyang Xiu were even more solemn. They would choose to criticize Yang Guang.

But if they talk about some of the policies that Yang Guang worked out, they can't say a word, because what Yang Guang did is something that scholars all over the world should be grateful to him for!

Imperial examination!

Grand Canal!
It also caused Yang Guang's image to fall into extreme two-sided evaluation of two major events that benefit the country and the people!

At this moment, the later emperors all looked solemn.

Gao Yang's voice sounded.

"Yes, Yang Guang has done three important things in his life, the first of which is the imperial examination!"

"After the Western Han Dynasty, the main method of selecting officials at that time was the scouting system. The so-called scouting system was that the imperial court sent officials to the localities, selected talents in the localities, and elected them to the imperial court as officials."

"The main selection is people with good moral character and good knowledge.

But this model, everyone understands it, and there is too much room for manipulation. Therefore, the nobles will last forever, and the children of the poor will never have a bright future. "

"After the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the "Nine-rank Zhongzheng System" was changed. This model is that the counties and counties elect an official from the central government as the inspector.

The big inspectors are selecting the small inspectors, and then they use the special form issued by the central government to divide talents into nine grades, and conduct inspections, mainly to check their popularity in the local area, that is, public opinion.

This kind of thing is even more cheating, how can there be such a thing as a humble disciple in fame?
"After the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, in the Sui Dynasty, the imperial examination system came. The current mainstream opinion is that Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty proposed the imperial examination. The so-called imperial examination is a unified examination!"

"The emergence of the imperial examination system is an epoch-making system. It lasted until the Qing Dynasty and is still in use. It has also become the only way for the poor to change themselves and change the fate of their families apart from working hard on the battlefield!"

"The imperial examination system is the gospel for the poor and poor all over the world, and it is also a great merit!"

"Yang Guang's violence, Yang Guang's moral corruption, no one can clean up."

"But the credit belongs to Yang Guang, and no one can erase it!"

At this moment, Yang Guang suddenly raised his eyes.

Zhu Di and the others also raised their heads with complicated eyes. Indeed, even they couldn't say anything about systems such as the imperial examination system!
This is indeed a system that crosses the ages, and the children of poor families all over the world must thank Yang Guang!
Confucius looked solemn, followed by his three thousand younger brothers. The leader Confucius bowed slightly to the emperor on the projection and said, "Confucius thanked Emperor Sui Yang for the poor disciples in the world!"

"We scholars, thank Emperor Sui Yang for the children of the poor family in the world!"

The sound is like the sound of the nine heavens, resounding through the ten thousand dynasties.

In the comment section, especially the poor children after the Sui Dynasty, all lowered their heads at different time points.

Whether it is a high official or a scholar who is studying hard in the cold window, it is the same at this moment!

Pray for the imperial examination system!

Worship for a chance to change your own destiny!

In an instant, Wanchao was silent.

Only Gao Yang's voice continued to resound.

"The second major event is the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty, which is also the greatest contribution of Yang Guang's reign!"

"After Yang Guang came to power, he had two hobbies, the first was fighting, the second was picking up girls, but the capital of the Sui Dynasty was Luoyang, which was very embarrassing.

After all, at that time, the wars were mainly fought in Beijing, and the girls were picked up in the south of the Yangtze River, and Luoyang was in the middle of the two! "

"In addition, during the Sui Dynasty, the world changed drastically, and water conservancy was extremely inconvenient. If you go by land, it will take too much time and waste a lot of resources."

"Regardless of whether Yang Guang went to Jiangnan out of convenience or to pick up girls, in short, the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty started vigorously."

Yang Guang recruited millions of people to dig rivers. Starting from Luoyang, two large rivers were dug directly, one leading to Beijing and the other leading to Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

As a result, a Grand Canal that runs through the north and south of China with Luoyang as the center appeared.

And this is the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty.

The Grand Canal that took the painstaking efforts of millions of soldiers!

An inch of river, an inch of blood!

The Grand Canal appeared in the land of China in the Sui Dynasty, and the river was rushing continuously. Since then, the communication between the north and the south has been opened up.

Just like the embarrassing situation mentioned before, Luoyang is mixed between Beijing and the center of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, so you can't go to war, and you can't go to pick up girls and enjoy life.

It's embarrassing.

But as soon as the Grand Canal comes out.

Not the same, not only is it convenient for Emperor Sui Yang to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to travel, but more importantly, the whole country enjoys the great convenience of the Grand Canal!

It should be noted that the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions not only have a lot of girls, but more importantly, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions are a land of fish and rice. Food and finances all depend on the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions!
The backup needed for the war is all provided by the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.

But in the past, [-]%, [-]%, or even more of [-]% of the food was wasted when traveling by land.

But with the Grand Canal, through this Grand Canal running from north to south, grain from Jiangsu and Zhejiang can be easily transported to Beijing and even the entire northern battlefield!

Benefit the country and the people!

Moreover, vendors communicate with each other, and couples and family members separated from the north and the south no longer have to endure long-distance relationships.

It even changed the situation that the people in the north and the south had never met a few times in their lives, and there were countless benefits!

To this day, the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty is still playing its role!
This is a great achievement that cannot be erased!
Zhu Di: "Yang Guang didn't get involved in the matter of the Grand Canal. Although the emperors of all dynasties before Yang Guang built many river channels, only Yang Guang was cruel to the Grand Canal!"

"Connecting the river and opening up the north and south, this achievement is not to be blacked out."

Li Er also nodded, "Although my cousin does many things very badly, but the matter of the Grand Canal is not black."

The benefits of the Grand Canal, Li Er is very clear, it is no exaggeration to say,
This river directly allows many wars in later generations to fight protracted wars!

Both the North and South economies have been opened up!
The later emperors immediately spoke in unison.

They are still enjoying the benefits of the Grand Canal until now, and they cannot blackmail Yang Guang for this.

Regardless of Yang Guang's purpose.

Yang Guang's eyes are also a little moist at the moment. He never expected that later emperors would speak so highly of his Grand Canal.

Gao Yang continued.

"As for the third thing Yang Guang did, it can be said that this was the one thing that directly led to the demise of the Sui Dynasty."

Yang Guang immediately sat up straight.

Gao Yang said word by word, "This is the Three Marches of Goguryeo!"
