Because her family was persecuted by powerful officials, Dugu Jialuo demanded herself to be independent and strong since she was a child. At that time, her husband Yang Jian had already shown extraordinary spirit. He was brave and good at fighting, and made great military achievements. He ascended the throne in troubled times, established the Sui Dynasty, unified China, and then vigorously developed cultural economy. Dugu Jialuo assisted him wholeheartedly, and together with Yang Jian, she advocated frugality and assisted Yang Jian in achieving the "Kaihuang Reign", peace and prosperity for the country and the people. She and Yang Jian were both respected as "the two saints", and played an indispensable role in Yang Jian's creation of the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty. Dugu Jialuo and Yang Jian went through the ups and downs of life hand in hand, and they always loved each other and had a deep affection for each other. She always urged Yang Jian to be diligent in government and love the people. No matter what kind of life they were in, the couple maintained a frugal and simple family style, creating a good story of the life of the harem of the ancient Chinese emperors.
