Poem

Duan Cheng, the steward of Prince Jin's Mansion, glanced around the crowd and said loudly: "This prince selection competition tests wisdom, benevolence and bravery. Literary talent and martial arts are indispensable. From the bottom of Tianhu Mountain to the top of the mountain, there are dangers everywhere. Who can reach the top of the mountain safely?

, you can win the final competition."

The boss, He Canaan, looked puzzled and said: "But, there are two roads behind us. One east and one west, which one is the way up the mountain?"

Hearing this, Duan Cheng stroked his beard and said slowly: "When you die in this life, your understanding will be tested."

After saying that, he ordered a soldier to draw his bow and shoot an arrow tied with a note on a tree not far away. He said in a deep voice: "The secret is on that note. You should take care of it yourself."

Let’s understand the ground thoroughly.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone except He Jiabei rushed forward and rushed to grab the arrow. He Jiabei had no intention of doing so, so he stood still, but was dragged over by Liao Shiyin.

Hogashi grabbed the note first, unfolded it and saw four lines of poetry on it. Others also came over to read it.

He Jiadong read at the side: "The sun rises in the east. Although the road is blocked, we are not afraid of difficulties and dangers and can reach Tianhu Mountain."

Everyone was confused after hearing this, not knowing what these four lines of poetry meant.

Liao Shiyin pushed He Jiabei to follow the others. He Jiabei looked resistant and unhappy and said: "If I don't return to Jindu, I'm afraid it will be too late to save Pei Daozhu."

"Prince Jin will judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. We, the children of the He family, have always been united as one."

With that said, he led his entourage back the same way and went to the west.

"The third child is so insidious!" He Jiadong said angrily.

After the attendant squatted down, he felt very puzzled and asked: "Master, why do we hide? Let them take the lead."

"Today's selection of the prince must be very exciting and interesting." The emperor was very interested. He looked at He Zixu in the audience and asked: "King Guangping, which prince do you think will win?"

"These difficulties may be a big problem for King Jin, but for us, the children of the He family, they are not worth mentioning at all."

"Brother, now is the time for us two brothers to work together to resist foreign enemies." He Jiadong frowned and said.

What he didn't expect was that He Jiadong only received two symbolic blows before preparing to run away. Moreover, the group of assassins were clearly coming for He Canan.

"Huh, I'm afraid they will fight each other for the throne of the heir apparent!"

After saying that, he ran away. Seeing this, He Canan and He Jiadong also chased after him, fearing that they would not be half a step behind.

After saying that, the two men attacked at the same time and took the initiative to fight with the assassins.

He Jiabei stopped and waited for Liao Shiyin to catch up. He curled his lips and asked her as he walked forward: "Why go with them? In order to be the heir, I will not hesitate to kill each other. To be honest, I

I don’t want to be a prince!”

Liao Shiyin was silent and then asked: "Where are you going now?"

He Jiabei said seriously: "Of course I do. As a man, he must save the woman he loves at all costs."

He Zixu murmured to himself: "I don't know what the outcome will be."

At this time, Hegashi suddenly shouted, "I understand!"

He Jiaxi smiled confidently and said: "Think about it, the sun rises in the east, and the place where the sun rises is a place of hope. According to the poem, as long as we are not afraid of obstacles, the east road can lead to the top of the mountain. Let's go.

!”

The emperor's face turned red when he heard the two quarreling, so he came down and persuaded: "Okay, okay, you two have white hair and beards. You are so old. Together, you are more than a hundred years old. Why are you so different?"

Are you arguing when we meet? I am here to watch the competition today, not to see you two quarreling. Shut up."

At this time, on the top of the mountain, the emperor had already sat there, waiting for the winner to arrive. The prince of Jin, Prince He Zixu of Guangping and other officials were also gathered together.

He Canaan nodded and said: "Okay, let us break out of the siege!"

The boss, He Canaan, said hurriedly: "What? You have already understood the meaning of these four lines of poetry?"

"Brother, I don't know them. It turns out you have a grudge against them. You fight first, and I leave first!"

Liao Shiyin sneered: "If you retreat in the face of battle, are you still a man?"

He Jiaxi showed a treacherous smile and said: "Actually, I lied to them. The poem just now was an acrostic poem, implying that the east road is blocked and the correct direction should be west. Let's go, let's turn around and go west.

!”

Prince Jin sneered and said: "I think there is another possibility. That is that all four of them were defeated. There are many difficulties surrounding Tianhu Mountain today."

He Jiabei said: "The road to the east goes up the mountain, so the road to the west must go down the mountain. As long as we rush back to Jindu City, we will be able to save Daozhu. Don't follow us."

"Back to the emperor, all the children of the He family are wise and brave, and everyone has the possibility of winning." He Zixu raised his head and said with great satisfaction.

"I'm afraid that people's hearts are alienated from each other. I know people but don't know their faces."

He Canan suddenly realized: "Oops, we have fallen into a trap!"

At this time, on the west road, He Jiashi, who was running at the front, suddenly ordered his followers to hide in the grass aside, letting He Canan and He Jiadong behind them run past under his nose.

"Okay, second brother, how dare you betray me!" He Canaan looked at He Jiadong's flying back angrily, gritting his teeth in anger.

But when He Cananan and others rushed to the end of the road, they found that the front was blocked and it was impossible to go.

Liao Shiyin also planned to follow them, but in the blink of an eye, she found that He Jiabei had run away to the west road. She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then hurriedly turned around and chased after them, saying: "Hey, I went to the wrong place, no?"

What do you want to do over there?"

On the top of the mountain, everyone was waiting anxiously and kept looking towards the mountain pass. He Zixu and Prince Jin were especially nervous and wandered back and forth.

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of assassins covered in black cloth and night clothes suddenly rushed out of the woods and surrounded them. Each of them held a wooden stick in their hand and looked menacing.

Liao Shiyin scolded as if she hated the iron, "You are too unambitious. Your brothers have worked very hard to become the heir apparent, but you only think about your children's affair!"

"You, you!" Liao Shiyin pouted angrily, then immediately ran after her.

As soon as he finished speaking, he fled, leaving He Canan alone to fight alone.

Not long after, the seriously injured boss He Canan was carried up on a stretcher. He Zixu saw this and stared at him in disbelief: "Nan'er, you!"

He Cananan had blood in the corner of his mouth, endured the pain, and cried with aggrieved face: "Dad, my second brother betrayed me!"

"What?" He Zixu was even more shocked after hearing this.

Prince Jin laughed at the side and said: "Hey, it turns out that this is called brothers working together. It is really eye-opening for me!"
