brotherly innocence

"Father, what is this?" Qin Rong asked.He opened the silver box, and inside were several wax-sealed pills, two circles smaller than ordinary pills, like big pearls.He picked up a pill, and Boss Qin yelled, "Be careful, put it down, it's a highly poisonous poison, made from crane crest red in the palace."

Qin Rong was so panicked that his hands shook, as if holding a fire chestnut, he looked at his father in surprise.Boss Qin avoided his gaze and sighed, and said in a low voice: "If he, if he has two minds, it will be bad for you...you... If you preemptively attack others, father, I don't blame you."

Qin Rong was alert and immediately understood that the "he" who was not good for him was Chu Yaonan.Shocked, his father put the poison in his hands and asked him to beware of Chu Yaonan. If it was a last resort, he would carry the "Shangfang Sword" and "Crane Dinghong" with him to kill Xiao Chu.The hesitant and distressed look in his father's eyes already showed his choice. Although this paternal love was so extravagant that he was emotionally grateful for it, but the inexplicable sadness in his heart was for Chu Yaonan.Xiao Chu hated him, but tried his best to cover it up, he knew it, and could feel it, but he thought, it's better to get rid of enemies than tie them up, so what's the deep hatred?

"Rong'er, there is something, you have an idea. In the past few months, the Tianhuang Society has always sent people from the northeast to see Yaonan, and Yaonan has never heard of it."

"Father is worried that Yaonan and Tianhuang will collude?" Qin Rong gasped, no wonder his father was eager to let him come forward, no wonder Chu Yaonan desperately asked Ying to lead the team to the northeast.

He nodded, took a deep breath, and calmed down before going to the battlefield.

Peiping.

The gray sky is like the calm surface of the Dingjiang Bund, depressing, stagnant and lifeless.

The excitement of taking the plane to the blue sky for the first time gradually faded away. Qin Rong was at the airport, looking up at the sky. In the early autumn sky, a group of carrier pigeons were flying around freely.

Hu Shaoshuai's guard sent a special car to pick him up, and the two brothers boarded the car and left.

"Where are we going? Didn't we transfer to Fengtian for business?" Qin Rong asked puzzled.

Chu Yaonan drove the car with his peaked cap pressed down very low, like the younger brother of his attendant, he said leisurely, "Worship the mountain to see my uncle."

A Biao behind him jokingly said, "Young Marshal Hu, our Young Master Nan admires him the most. Every time we come to Peiping, we always visit him first."

Chu Yaonan slammed on the brakes, and A Biao leaned over, bit his tongue, and kept complaining, frowning, complaining: "Young Master Nan, A Biao did not say anything wrong. This plane is the special plane of Hu Shaoshuai."

"What does he do? He's just a playboy. His father has money and he lives well. What else can he do besides eating, drinking and having fun?" Qin Rong is full of contempt. The Japanese were killed, and this young marshal inherited his father's career at the age of twelve, and ascended to the throne admired by thousands of people.Everyone envies young achievers, but he scoffs, what kind of skill is it to rely on Lao Tzu's foundation to win the country?

Chu Yaonan braked, opened the door and said, "Go down!"

Chu Yaonan seldom treats him like this, since this trip to Beiping, Chu Yaonan's dislike for him is beyond words.Qin Rong understood, but he was also helpless, but he refused to admit defeat in his bones.Back and forth, he mistakenly caused Chu Yaonan to suffer humiliation, but Chu Yaonan had resorted to all means to retaliate against him.

After a moment of silence, Qin Rong remained silent and sat with his head up. Chu Yaonan had no choice but to drive and warned him: "If you see Uncle Hu talking nonsense, be careful he will kill you. It doesn't matter whose son you are! "

The small white building was guarded by soldiers. I went upstairs and sat in the living room for a while. The adjutant came in and said, "The commander said that he is one of his own. Please come with me, gentlemen. The commander is giving an injection."

Chu Yaonan got up freely and straightened his clothes, turned his head and gave Qin Rong a wink, and followed the soldiers into a separate study room.

"Uncle, my nephew Yaonan has come to pay my respects to my uncle." Chu Yaonan said loudly with a smile as soon as he stepped through the door.

Qin Rong's eyes stopped alertly at the French windows with purple curtains and apricot tassels.

Standing facing the window with his back to the door, a man in a gray-blue coat was slowly turning around.

The front of the shirt was loosened, revealing a section of light wheat-colored skin, revealing a bit of laziness.

Qin Rong's eyes moved up, a clear and handsome cheek, with extremely delicate skin, although the cheekbones were slightly protruding and the cheeks were slightly sunken, he did not conceal his handsome demeanor.If not, he must be a first-class handsome man.Just a smile, with a graceful and luxurious demeanor, like a Western statue standing in the corridor of the Qin Mansion.The gaze that slightly raises the jaw to look at people always has a certain arrogance to look down on the world. Hu Ziqing, a young man who is in charge of the 30 Northeast Army, is so young, it is beyond imagination.

It's just that the warm fox fur collar on the overcoat he exaggeratedly draped over his shoulders, the golden yellow of the sun was shining on the top of the fur, the fox made him dream about it, somehow he remembered the "fox spirit" his mother mentioned before going out, and he only thought of it. Here, a sense of guilt made him dismiss the thought immediately.

"Yaonan, this is, your father's newly found son? The kid who subdued the assassins during the three dynasties?" Hu Ziqing asked, looking up and down at Qin Rong with admiring eyes, and walked over with a smile.

"It's my second younger brother, Qin Rong." Chu Yaonan pushed Qin Rong in front of him, and told Qin Rong, "Show respect to my uncle."

Qin Rong had already heard about the legend of this young commander in charge of half of China.Hu Ziqing is less than [-] years old, but he already holds a heavy army.Marshal Hu was killed by the Japanese bombing three years ago, so he did not fear the power of the Japanese, and resolutely changed his banner to join the southern government to realize a republic.Last year, I saw several warlords send telegrams against He Wenhou's government in Xijing for their own interests. I saw a civil war that was about to break out, but this Northeast tiger went down the mountain, sent a telegram to support the central government, and sent troops to quickly end the civil war.In the old days, when the elder brothers of Qingdaotang talked about Hu Ziqing, they all praised him for his unique vision and clear mind.It's just that this Young Marshal Hu is also famous for his absurdity. There are many scandals in the big newspapers and tabloids. In the past two years, he has smoked opium and morphine.Eldest brother Jiang Tao once lamented that if the helmsman had to take a lazy nap in the strong wind and waves, the lives of a whole boat would be lost in some vortex.

Now this person is right in front of his eyes, he is so approachable that he has no halo, he is always as handsome as the big brother next door.

"Ah Rong is a bit clumsy and tongue-tied, don't blame the old man." Chu Yaonan rounded up the situation, with a clever mouth, he asked for warmth, and offered the salute that his father ordered, and kept caring about Hu Shaoshuai's condition in his mouth. .Hu Ziqing kept looking at Qin Rong, and sighed: "Old Qin is really lucky. He has cast the net for 20 years and found nothing. Once he gets online, he will get a big baby."

The doctor came in to give a morphine injection, and Hu Ziqing didn't shy away from it. He just took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves, revealing a section of his forearm, which was full of dark purple pinholes, which were particularly glaring on his white skin.

Under the sunlight, Hu Ziqing's cheeks were even paler, Qin Rong suddenly realized, no wonder he saw that Hu Ziqing was handsome, but he lacked something compared to him in military uniform in the photo, but lacked the vigor and blood on his cheeks, which should have The majestic and heroic.

Qin Rong gradually frowned, seeing the injection, he injected it into Hu Ziqing's pulse along the needle tube.This man was on drugs, and so addicted.As early as in Qingdaotang, the eldest brother explicitly forbade the brothers from taking "drugs", and even more explicitly prohibited the drug trafficking business.

For some reason, he, who had few words, suddenly said: "This morphine is poison after all, it's better to use less."

After saying a word, Hu Ziqing was stunned, looked sideways, smiled, and was about to speak, Chu Yaonan scolded Qin Rong first: "Presumptuous! No big or small, what is the status of the old uncle, and you have to teach me? This morphine injection Who doesn’t know if it’s poisonous, so just keep your mouth shut!”

Hu Ziqing looked at the pair of brothers thoughtfully, and finally couldn't help laughing and cursing: "Nan'er, you bastard! Are you saying this to your uncle?"

Chu Yaonan said with a smile on his face: "Heaven and earth conscience, how dare Yaonan have such thoughts."

After being injected with morphine, Hu Ziqing rubbed his eyes and said, "Finally, your father sent you all the way, not just to greet the old man, right?"

Sitting on the sofa, Chu Yaonan leaned forward and said, "Uncle is wise, to be honest, my nephew borrowed troops from the teacher, a battalion of troops."

"What a big tone!" Hu Ziqing said, he couldn't help but look at Chu Yaonan.

Qin Rong didn't know what was going on, he just came to study, so he couldn't help being a little surprised, what did Chu Yaonan send troops for?

"The Qin family has a gold mine in the northeast, and it was invested and mined when the first marshal was there."

"I know this, what's going on?" Hu Ziqing asked with a suppressed smile.

"Tianhuang Club was originally a joint venture with the Qin Corporation, but now it is found that they seem to be in collusion with the Japanese. Therefore, if the Qin Corporation wants to withdraw its capital, then Li Laopi is playing tricks."

Hu Ziqing's face darkened slightly.

"Is there any difficulty for the old man? Or are you afraid of the Japanese people?" Chu Yaonan challenged him.

"Yaonan, is it your father's idea, or..."

"Father, I only entrust this matter to Yaonan, but it doesn't matter what the result is. This idea of ​​mobilizing troops is my nephew's foolish opinion." Hu Ziqing tapped his hands on the case and thought: "Yaonan , People in Jianghu, remember the saying 'a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake', for fear of my account, Hu Xiaoyan, those guys on the road eat black ones, so they may not buy them."

The meaning in these words is that I am afraid that there is nothing I can do.

Chu Yaonan responded, "My nephew understands what the old man said. It's just that my nephew is a person, not a soldier. People in a battalion who take off their military uniforms and change into clothes are members of the township guards and bandits. My nephew Don't want local soldiers, but those who want to go to Jinzhou or Beiping, face to face, and withdraw when things are done, no one knows, no one knows. Of course, Yaonan still wants to salute first and then "soldier", and only fires when he has to. As for these brothers, Yaonan I won’t let everyone’s hard work be in vain.”

"Smart!" Hu Ziqing said frankly: "Take my note and go to Secretary-General Zang to arrange it. Yaonan, Yaonan, the old uncle saw you right back then, it was that time that Tiger Hall helped me remove money for consultation Be ruthless, the old uncle will tell your father that you are a person who does great things."

Chu Yaonan saw that he had achieved great success and that the trip was worthwhile, so he said with a bit of blame and shyness: "Don't mention that, it was just a mistake. If it wasn't for Yaonan's low hand, go pick the real one in the Tiger Hall." The eyes on the tiger's skin were kicked by my father and hid at the base of the wall to be wronged, and I met that unlucky ghost there."

After joking for a while, Hu Ziqing took the two brothers to eat roast duck and take the plane.

Hu Ziqing personally flew the plane to the sky of Beiping.

When the plane was flying low above the Forbidden City for a bird's-eye view, Qin Rong felt an inexplicable reverence for the majestic palaces, the golden roofs, and the dazzling sunlight.The majestic city wall circles the splendor and majesty of the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

"Xiao Rong, your uncle is at your age, and he wants to fly a plane in his dreams. After many years of trouble, he persuaded the first general to buy a plane and set up an aviation brigade. It's not easy to be a son."

Qin Rong said excitedly: "Commander Hu, can you teach Qin Rong to fly a plane?" He suddenly felt that this playful young man also had a lot of great things.

"Want to go to heaven by yourself?"

"Ok!"

Hu Ziqing sized him up with a smile and squinted his eyes. Seeing Qin Rong's sword eyebrows raised slightly, eager to try his hand, he was quite cute.

"Well, you can consider it." Hu Ziqing said.

"Really?" Qin Rong asked, as if he was a child.

The plane hovered over the Forbidden City in a circle, and the low, silent palace, old trees and crows could be seen faintly.

"It's been a while since the little emperor was kicked out of the Forbidden City?" Qin Rong shouted loudly, the rumble of the engine covering his voice.

Hu Ziqing said frankly: "Jiangshan, beauty, change of dynasty, success or failure, only palaces and pavilions are left. If you don't bring it with you in life, you won't take it with you in death."

"It's enough to be brilliant once, to go to heaven once!" Qin Rong said casually.

Hu Ziqing shouted: "What did you say?"

The rumbling voice covered the speech, leaving only a string of laughter.

Qin Rong thought, Hu Ziqing, who was called China's No. [-] flower girl, seemed quite interesting, and he was amiable because of his true temperament.

As the plane drove back to the runway, Qin Rong was full of excitement and couldn't calm down.

After getting off the plane, Hu Ziqing took off his flying glasses, patted Qin Rong on the shoulder and said, "Boy, it's not easy to be a young girl. It's easy to start a business, but hard to keep it. There's no such thing as a life to expand the territory, hold on to this foundation and secure it." This position is not for everyone.”

Qin Rong blushed for a while, wondering how Hu Ziqing knew what he was thinking.
