Yang Xuangan

Yang Xuangan (楊玄感 Yáng Xuángǎn; died 21 August 613^[1]) was a Chinese military general and politician who lived during the Sui dynasty. He was the son of Yang Su, a military general and politician himself. As he knew that Emperor Yang was apprehensive of his father, he was never quite secure. In 613, when Emperor Yang was attacking Goguryeo, he rebelled near the eastern capital Luoyang but was soon defeated. He ordered his brother Yang Jishan (楊積善) to kill him, so as not to fall into Emperor Yang's hands.
