He once asked Geng Xin to write a preface to the inscription of maijiya Buddha niche in Tianshui County of Qinzhou for him. In the fourth year of Renshou, Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, the envoys of Qinzhou built a 9.4-meter-high seven level pagoda on the top of Maiji Mountain, which is said to be one of the 84000 pagodas of Asoka.
