Xue Huaiyi's original name was Feng Xiaobao, he was a small merchant selling wild medicine in Luoyang City, he was burly and eloquent, he was taken by the maid of a mansion and became the maid's lover, and the owner of this house was the princess of the daughter in the clan rebellion case. The maid secretly took Feng Xiaobao to the princess's mansion for a tryst, and was accidentally discovered by the princess, the princess was furious at first, but looking at Feng Xiaobao who was kneeling on the ground, the princess forgave him, not only did not punish him, but also kept him.

As the daughter of the Tang Dynasty, she is also very strange, she is the daughter of Tang Gaozu, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, a generation higher than Wu Zetian, and is the aunt and grandmother of Wu Zetian's biological daughter Princess Taiping, but she tried her best to please Wu Zetian and collect male favorites for her. Princess Qianjin dedicated Feng Xiaobaojin to Wu Zetian and asked Wu Zetian to accept her as a righteous daughter. Under the blessing of Wu Zetian's righteous daughter, she survived the many turmoil of the Wu Zhou Dynasty killing the Tang clan and did not die.

After Wu Zetian summoned Feng Xiaobao, he liked his strong body and burly appearance, and left him to have an affair in the palace. In order to avoid scandals and facilitate the prohibition of entering and leaving the palace, Feng Xiaobao was asked to cut his hair and become a monk, and he was ordered to change his surname to Xue, named Huaiyi, and Xue Shao, the husband of Princess Taiping, as a family, and ordered Xue Shao to recognize Xiaobao as Ji's father.

Later, Xue Huaiyi became the host of the White Horse Temple, and presided over the construction of the Ming Hall and Heaven, after the completion of Xue Huaiyi was worshiped as the general of Zuo Weiwei, and the Duke of Liang was sealed.

In May of the first year of Yongchang, the Turks invaded, and Wu Zetian ordered Xue Huaiyi to be the general manager of Qingping Province and lead the army to resist. He led the troops north to the Zihe in Dali County, Dingxiang County, did not meet the Turkic army, and returned in the single carved stone in Tai, Wu Zetian awarded him the general of the auxiliary country, entered the general of the right guard, and changed the title of Duke of Hubei and Zhuguo.

In the second year of longevity, the Turks invaded the border again, and Wu Zetian ordered Xue Huaiyi to be the general manager of the march of the Reverse Road, and the two governors were his staff and led eighteen generals to the battle, but later the Turks withdrew their troops on their own.

In addition, Xue Huaiyi worked hard to find a "Great Cloud Sutra" in the vast Buddhist scriptures, which recorded the story of the heroine ruling the country and finally becoming a Buddha, which justifiably provided a classic basis for Wu Zetian to be the emperor. Xue Huaiyi led a group of monks to concoct the "Great Cloud Sutra" to explain the classics, using easy-to-understand language to interpret and interpret the obscure scriptures, and combined them with the popular Maitreya belief at that time, saying that the Tang clan was declining, and Wu Zetian was born as Maitreya, which must replace the rule of the Tang Dynasty, providing Wu Zetian with an ideological weapon against the Confucian superiority of men and women, and helping her to ascend to the throne justifiably.

After Wu Zetian became the emperor, Xue Huaiyi naturally became the great hero of the founding of Wu Zhou, and the general Zuo Weiwei who worshiped the three products. At the same time, the male pets around Wu Zetian gradually increased, Xue Huaiyi was jealous, and he didn't enter the palace to see Wu Zetian in a fit of anger, and stayed in the White Horse Temple all day long to mess around with those little hooligans he had shaved.

On the fifteenth day of the first month of the first year of Zhengsheng, Xue Huaiyi made careful preparations to please Wu Zetian, and he commanded his subordinates to dig a five-zhang deep pit on the ground of the Ming Hall, and buried the Buddha statue in the pit in advance and installed the mechanism. Then a palace was built on the pit with silk. After Wu Zetian came to the Ming Hall, Feng Xiaobao commanded his subordinates to slowly pull up the Buddha statue from the bottom of the pit and pull it all the way to the palace built of colored silk.

Xue Huaiyi killed a cow in advance, painted a two-hundred-foot-high Buddha with cow blood, and hung the Buddha statue on the Tianjin Bridge in the Luoshui River, and then said to Wu Zetian that he cut his knee and painted it with his own blood, Wu Zetian was of course not stupid, he just smiled faintly and ignored it.

Xue Huaiyi was actually loyal to Wu Zetian, although at first it was for him to have fun, but later he became an official and led troops to fight, the man's self-esteem and pride arose, he realized the value and significance of his existence, wanted to be a good man, and was also loyal to Wu Zetian, but his self-indulgence did not arouse Wu Zetian's attention, and repeatedly frustrated his enthusiasm.

Xue Huaiyi accumulated deep resentment, and burned the heaven on the night of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month of the next day, and the fire continued to spread, setting the Ming Hall on fire, and the raging fire illuminated the divine capital Luoyang like day. The fire burned until dawn, and both the Ming Hall and Heaven were reduced to ashes! When it was first built, tens of thousands of dollars were spent, and the treasury was exhausted, and now only a piece of ashes remains, which makes people regret it.

Wu Zetian was furious, and killed Xue Huaiyi with a rod more than half a month later, at the age of thirty-two.

Although Shao Hui is not very clear about Xue Huaiyi's history, he also knows that there is such a person, and Chengshan compares him to Xue Huaiyi, he must not be at ease, so he has to clean up Chengshan and let him suffer a little.

Gongsun Yu didn't stop them from messing around, but he quietly approached the door, and when Shao Hui and Chengshan made a move, he slammed open the door and jumped out.

Shao Hui was a little surprised, he didn't know what Gongsun Yu was doing when he was out so late? Chengshan seemed to be prepared, and jumped out of the room with a jump. When Shao Hui came out, he saw Gongsun Yu pressing a man in black to the ground.

"There are assassins!" Shao Hui was very surprised, he didn't expect Gongsun Yu to be able to see and hear from all directions, and he could sense that someone was spying on them, and he would catch him without much effort. This person is also beyond his strength, how dare he go to the room of the national teacher with divine power in the middle of the night to spy on the news?

Seeing that Chengshan and Shao Hui also ran out, Gongsun Yu was sure that the assassin would not be able to escape, so he let go of his hand. "Let's go, since you're here, why don't you go into the house and talk. ”

Listening to Gongsun Yu's tone, he seemed to know this assassin, and when the four of them came to the house, Shao Hui took a look through the candlelight.

"So it's you? Didn't you just see each other during the day? Why did you come to spy on us at night?"

The assassin was Yuan Yijie, who wore a night suit and looked even thinner, like a black monkey.

"Forgive me, three adults, I was just passing by here, and when I saw the flashing lights in the room, I was a little curious, and I didn't dare to monitor the national teacher. Yijie bowed his head and bent down and explained with a grin, but this was obviously a lie, and given his previous performance of betraying himself, no one could believe him.

"Tell me, who sent you?" Chengshan's tone was very stern, he had completely lost his curiosity and freshness, life is so cruel, you believe others, others may not believe you. And the three of them are in a very delicate situation now, and if they are not careful, they may lose all the games, so they must be very cautious about Yijie.

Yijie was silent, his heart was much stronger than his appearance, and he had also experienced strong winds and waves, if Chengshan could make him confess just by a few words, it would be too much to underestimate him.

"Let him suffer a little, see if he says it or not. Shao Hui was helping to come up with ideas on the side, he didn't resent what Yijie did, because this may be his duty, but since he was caught by them, he must be honest, otherwise he must not be let go.

"Do you want to say it?" Chengshan's tone was even more stern, but his voice was not high, because the night was quiet and far away, for fear of arousing the alarm of the family in the house.

"If he doesn't want to say it, don't let him say it! Let him never say it!" Gongsun Yu's tone was very calm, but his words sounded a little creepy, what did this mean?

Yuan Yijie was a little surprised, and glanced up at Gongsun Yu, he was about to open his mouth to speak, but he couldn't make any sound, he tried to scream a few more times, his mouth opened and rounded, but still didn't make any sound.

He turned mute!

"If you don't say it, we know it! Since you don't want to say it, we won't force it, but you will never speak in the future!" Gongsun Yu was calm on the surface, but in fact he was ruthless.

Yuan Yijie stood there with his mouth wide open, and screamed a few times, but still couldn't make any sound, his eyes widened in horror, and he looked at Gongsun Yu blankly for a long time, and then fell to his knees and kowtowed vigorously in front of Gongsun Yu.

Shao Hui nodded and smiled beside him, it seems that Gongsun Yu really has two hits, and he can make this guy honest without torture to extract a confession.

Although Yijie couldn't speak, his kowtow was very loud, banging, looking very scared, and he sincerely wanted to admit his mistakes and repent.

"Okay, get up!" Gongsun Yu walked to the Eight Immortals Table in the middle of the room and sat down, he wanted to interrogate Yijie, Shao Hui and Chengshan also sat in the other two positions of the Eight Immortals Table respectively, watching Gongsun Yu interrogate the case with interest.

Yijie raised his head, his forehead was already blackened, and blood was oozing out, he looked frightened, he made feet on his knees, knelt in front of Gongsun Yu, and bowed his head three times, wanting Gongsun Yu to lift his punishment.

Gongsun Yu's hand emitted a blue light and shot at Yijie's throat, Yijie suddenly let out a miserable scream, and then he touched his neck, lowered his head and muttered a few words, and seemed to be back to normal.

"Say it. "Gongsun Yu is still so calm, it is useless to deal with this kind of treacherous and cunning catch, as long as he knows that he is powerful, he will naturally confess honestly, and he doesn't need to bother to speak.

"I am on the orders of His Majesty to spy on the three of them. Yijie lowered his head and whispered, although the voice was not loud, but it was able to make all three of them hear clearly.

"I'll send one of you. ”

"Not only me, but also the other two, both of whom are the thirty-sixth captains of Tiangang, and we are one of us for a day. ”

"When are you going to take shifts?"

"Every day at noon. ”

"What else did Your Majesty say?"

"Your Majesty orders that those who keep an eye on your whereabouts and your dealings report to her every afternoon. ”

Gongsun Yu and Chengshan glanced at each other, and as they expected, Wu Zetian did have suspicions about them, but there was no malice in just surveillance.

"What else do you want to say?" Gongsun Yu was not satisfied with his answer, as if Yijie was hiding a bigger secret.

"Every sentence is true, and I dare not hide it. Yijie kept his head down, he didn't dare to look into the eyes of the three people, because these three people were different, in case they could read minds, it would be troublesome for them to discover the secret in their hearts.

"Don't you want to take us to meet your master?" Gongsun Yu was pressing forward, and he knew it was time to uncover the truth.

"Ahh

In fact, he also really wants to reveal the secret of the master, but he has never had the opportunity, can these three people really help him realize his wish?
