Li Shimin's dream saint didn't appear, so he was persuaded to go hunting for fun. He said that when he met the iron general, he tried to escape and was trapped. Iron forced to write a letter, and Li Shimin begged iron to shout three times. Xue heard the cry for help, drove the iron away and was saved.

Finally, he found the sage he dreamed of. On his way back, he praised Xue, and Xue told how he joined the army and was almost burned to death, but he made a fool of himself.

Relying on his own efforts, Xue turned the Huotoujun into a fearsome army, which not only organized and sought to usurp the throne, but also pacified Bohai and Liao countries and made them kings.

Episode introduction:

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Xue from Longmen, Shanxi Province (now Xiucun, Hejin County, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province) studied martial arts with Li Jing, who was talented, had an amazing appetite, boundless strength and chivalry. When Xue was eighteen years old, his parents died, his house was burned and his possessions were reduced to ashes. Xue refused his uncle's help when he was down and out.

With the help of Mr. and Mrs. Wang, they became brothers. Wang introduced Xue to Mr. Liu's house as a coolie to make a living. Liu, a daughter of the Liu family, was moved by Xue's chivalrous feelings and secretly helped Xue fall in love despite her father's opposition. They fled the Liu family and tied the knot in the cold kiln.
