Yang Zongbao
Yang Zongbao (楊宗保) is a character in the ''Generals of the Yang Family'' legends. In these largely fictionalized stories, he is the son of general Yang Yanzhao and Princess Chai, the husband of Mu Guiying and the father of Yang Wenguang. Historical Basis According to '' History of Song'', Yang Wenguang was the son rather than the grandson of Yang Yanzhao, and no "Yang Zongbao" was found in either this record or the ''Records of Longping'' (隆平集), which mentioned the names of Yang Yanzhao's 2 other sons. However, two surviving genealogy books of the Yangs from Dai County and Yuanping City - both in Shanxi province where the legendary Yang Family originally came from - both recorded Yang Zongbao as one of the three sons of Yang Yanzhao. A "soul-resting" stele discovered in 1985 in Xin'an County, Henan province suggest that a "Yang Zongbao" was indeed a grandchild of Yang Ye's - except a granddaughter rather than a grandson.
