One Hundred Routes of Counterattack

Tong Xu was born in a family of Zanying, a family of Zhongming Dingshi, and his ancestors had produced many pillars of the country. When he arrived at his grandfather's generation, seeing that the Manchu Dynasty was in decline, he simply retired, and then he started to go into business with the contacts accumulated from his ancestors. .Because of the particularity of this Zanying family, even though he is a businessman, he is also a leader who can roam the political and business circles.When it came to his father's generation, he met the current president by chance, and because he felt that the president was a crouching dragon, he helped him several times.Later, when the flames of the revolution started to ignite the prairie fire, his father and the president took this opportunity to hitch a ride on the revolution, which has been going all the way to this day.

Only later, Tong's father gradually discovered that although the president had the ambition to unify the world, he did not have the courage and courage to match it.In this era of rapid development, facing the old-fashioned Manchu Qing Dynasty, the president is a revolutionary, but facing the real southern revolutionaries, he is also a timid conservative. What's worse, after becoming president , he is like many remaining ministers of the Qing Dynasty. Although he changed his appearance, he gradually equated the word "president" with the emperor.

Tong's father knew the difference between the two very well, but he didn't know how to mention his old friend.The increasingly self-willed president has become suspicious of the city government like the kings of the past, and even started to do things like killing birds and hiding good bows.Ying Tianlai, his confidant counselor, did not put forward any truly constructive suggestions, but because he was able to understand the situation and help to come up with bad ideas to deal with those officials who opposed him, he became the leader of the counselors.

Times are new, but people's hearts remain the same.

Tong's father saw that the president's road was not far away, so he started planning five years ago. Four years ago, he sent his third son, who he loves most and also has high hopes, to study in Germany.Tong Xu returned to China a year ago and was with Commander Song.

Although the act of letting his son get close to the Beining Army made Tong's father arouse the president's suspicion, but it was all worth it.Because Tong's father knows very well that even if he does nothing, the incomparably wealthy Tong family will one day toss and turn the increasingly ambitious president, and now the Tong family has a relationship with the Beining Army with outstanding military achievements and independent military power. , Instead, the president was constrained.

Speaking of Tong Xu, when he returned to China a year ago, he was determined to serve the motherland with his useful body. It can be said that he knocked on Commander Song's door with his sincerity, enthusiasm, and advanced knowledge and theory.Although I actually came into contact with the current national army and found that there was a certain gap between reality and ideals, but with hard work and progress, I quickly integrated into the Beining army at a speed that ordinary people could not imagine. The "brother of the family" who was talking about became the convincing adjutant Tong Xu.Although he has been "arbitrarily" placed in the position of adjutant, everyone knows that Commander Song treats Tong Xu as a successor. Not surprisingly, the next commander of the Beining Army may be this young man.

In order to study nearby, Tong Xu moved to Song's house after returning to China, working diligently as an "apprentice".During this process, he followed Commander Song, and he inevitably came into contact with Commander Song's favorite opera, and Du Liniang, Qi Congxue, who drove the city crazy at that time.

When he went to the theater for the first time, Tong Xu was amazed by Qi Congxue's appearance and voice.That melodious and beautiful singing voice, Pingting's soft figure, even though separated by a large black audience, still made Tong Xu startled like goosebumps all over his body.

After that, he became obsessed with opera, and it was wrong, what he became obsessed with was not the opera, but the person who sang the opera——Qi Congxue, the boss of Qi.

As long as he is free, he will go to every performance of Qi Congxue on stage. Even though he has already mastered the libretto, he never feels bored.When he was not following Commander Song, he would often put on his regular clothes and sit in the front seat among a group of old men eating melon seeds and drinking tea. Such a tall and straight young man stared at the stage The amorous feelings of people's beautiful eyes are getting deeper and deeper.He was so obsessed with Qi Congxue, but because he was so obsessed, he was so close to his hometown, he didn't dare to use money or his status as the third young master of the Tong family to defile this person who was as jade in his heart, and he only dared to give his whole heart to Qi Congxue. , hidden in the bounty of everyone and sent to the backstage.

This time when he returned to Beijing, as Commander Song's adjutant, he could be said to be the first person to know that Qi Congxue held a charity performance for the officers in order to win the victory of the Beining Army.Before hearing about his charity performance, he went to three games in a row, the venues were full, and he was in full swing. But the day before the charity performance, he took a day off to recharge his batteries. The agitation in his heart became bigger and bigger, and he could almost hear the waves the sound of.

Looking at the figure on the stage, he was mesmerized.I haven't seen you for half a year, and Boss Qi's demeanor is even worse than before. After tonight, I am afraid that many soldiers in the Beining Army will fall in love with Boss Qi...

The sudden surge of apprehension made him unable to contain it anymore. When he heard that Commander Song was going to the backstage to express his thanks, he finally could not go against his own heart. Visit Boss Qi.

This is the first time he has come into contact with Boss Qi at such a close distance.He hadn't taken off his makeup yet, the heavy headdress and costume were put aside, and he was talking to a man slowly with his fingers.Under the dim light in the backstage, it was difficult for Qi Congxue, who was covered with thick makeup, to see her real appearance and the expression in her heart. Seeing the man's affectionate address, Tong Xu felt sour in his heart.This strange feeling overwhelmed him for a moment, he couldn't help avoiding it, and didn't go to see Boss Qi immediately.

But when he faced Qi Congxue unavoidably, a sense of completeness of life made him greedily trace Boss Qi's face with his eyes.He looked a little different from what he had imagined, and he wasn't sure if it was because of the difference between the upper and lower stages of the stage, but this did not disappoint. Instead, he felt that Boss Qi was more beautiful than the one he had guessed with all his strength in his memory. moving.

He found that even with thick makeup on, he could still feel Boss Qi's thoughts clearly.After hearing his heartfelt praise, Boss Qi's eyes lit up, clearly showing his joy, which made him fall completely, unable to struggle anymore.

He stood there silently, his body tensed, his eyes involuntarily staring at Boss Qi who was bending over to wash off his makeup.Now there were only the two of them in the background, and the silence flowing in the air made him nervous involuntarily.At this time, he was very sober. He was wearing a military cap, which could cover his eyes, so that the heat in it would not frighten Boss Qi.And this rigid military uniform allowed him to control his behavior.

After Boss Qi took off his make-up, he no longer had the dazzling radiance on the stage, but it made Tong Xu's mood even more turbulent.A pair of willow eyebrows are slightly weak and delicate, but because of the narrow and raised phoenix eyes, they are not feminine. The natural redness at the end of the eyes makes people feel pity. The white skin and red lips, the full lips have a natural curvature of smile, which makes him Thinking about the taste of kissing...

Song Zhang Lei's poem suddenly broke into my heart:

Spotless and fragrant to the bone, Gushe Xianxian exposed her body.

The stunning young man in front of him is indeed like a girl who shoots gods and men, with a promiscuous face, a beautiful tree and a beautiful flower... It is desirable and a kiss.

Tong Xu's breath suddenly became rough, and he forced himself to pull his mind away, secretly blaming himself for thinking of such things to insult Boss Qi...

"Mr. Tong, I'm done packing, let's go."

Boss Qi's voice made Tong Xu feel like he was being pardoned. He nodded silently, lowered the brim of his hat a little, and walked ahead with his long legs to clear the way for Boss Qi.

The two were silent all the way, and for some reason they didn't choose to take a rickshaw, but walked back home instead.It was dark at night, although this piece of theater was in the bustling city during the day, there was not much movement at night, and a few dogs barking could be vaguely heard from a distance.

Tong Xu greedily enjoys this alone time, wishing that the road back will be infinitely extended and endless.He held his breath, secretly feeling the feeling of Boss Qi by his side.

For some reason, the originally pure and enthusiastic appreciation and obsession, after meeting for the first time tonight, quietly and unquestionably turned into wishful thinking.

He didn't know how to express it, or even whether he should express that thought, but he couldn't control himself.

"Mr. Tong," Boss Qi's smiling voice came to his ears with the night wind, the quiet street, as if there were only the two of them left in the whole world, "Qi thanked Mr. Tong for his thoughtfulness, but Qi is also an introvert after all. The seven-foot boy, Mr. Tong really walked so slowly in order to take care of Qi, if this continues, I am afraid that Qi will not be able to return home by dawn."

Tong Xu looked, in the blurred night, Boss Qi's face seemed to be exposed under the moon, his eyes seemed to contain a whole piece of starlight, with a faint smile.

"Boss Qi..."

"Mr. Tong and I are of the same generation. Since Mr. Tong really loves to listen to operas, he is naturally a friend of Qi, so why should he be so out of touch. Why don't Mr. Tong call Qi by his name directly?"

Tong Xu's eyes lit up: "Cong Xue can also call me A Xu."

"Okay, A Xu." Boss Qi smiled sincerely. This smile was more beautiful than Tong Xu's had ever seen before, and even more intimacy than when he was facing Commander Song. It was precisely this hard-earned smile. The intimacy, soft but accurately hit a certain point in Tong Xu's heart, and then brought up the previous topic again in a close and gentle voice, "So A Xu, we don't have to walk so slowly."

It seemed that the night was just right, the wind swayed, and the leaves rustled. The agitation that caused Tong Xu's heart rolled in his throat a few times, and finally uttered forcefully under his weak resistance.

"It's just because the beauty standing in front of Tong tonight is more beautiful than the bright moon in the sky, that's why I wanted to look more at Boss Qi."

==

"Master, Mr. Tong came early in the morning and was waiting outside in the main hall."

"...Well, let's go down."

Qi Congxue's body always makes Han Xiu feel unexpectedly comfortable in the casual details.For example, this lazy biological clock that never wakes up until the sun shines every day always reminds him of a long, long time ago, when Han Xiu was still alive. Also so loose.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Qing'er whispering a message outside the door. He couldn't help recalling what happened before, and smiled without realizing it.

A few days have passed that night, but at that time Tong Xu said impulsively: "It's just because the beauty standing in front of Tong tonight is more beautiful than the bright moon in the sky, so I was abrupt and wanted to see Boss Qi more." .” But the words still lingered in my ears.

It was like thunder on the ground, with a bang, the explosion made people's minds go blank, and they were dizzy and didn't know what year it was.

Such frivolous and abrupt words, this sudden and straightforward confession, made even Han Xiu, who had gone through a storm like this, a little at a loss, dumbfounded, and didn't know how to react.

Fortunately, Tong Xu regretted what he said as soon as he uttered it, annoyed at his impulsiveness, and he didn't notice that the person he was thinking of was not annoyed by the abrupt embarrassment, so he hurriedly said: "No, that's not what I meant... I says……"

His eager explanation gave Han Xiu time to adjust his emotions—he chuckled in an anticlimactic manner: "I understand what A Xu means, although I didn't expect that A Xu would be so keen on opera, but my Du Liniang can make me feel better." A Xu was haunted by dreams, and even mistakenly equated me with Liniang, which made Congxue even more proud of her performance."

Although his frank and calm "distortion" made Tong Xu barely exposed the embarrassment just now, it also made him even more uncomfortable.Because he knew very well that Qi Congxue misunderstood what he meant: he really didn't treat Qi Congxue as Du Liniang, who was born in love at that moment, but really liked Qi Congxue.However, he didn't know how to say all this, so he could only acquiesce to Qi Congxue's statement with a wry smile.

This embarrassment dissipated invisible under Han Xiu's avoidance.But the fire in Tong Xu's heart never disappeared.When he was studying in Germany, he was affected by the atmosphere, and there were many male students around him who went out in pairs, doing things that only lovers would do. Even though he was a little surprised at first, now he still understands this kind of behavior that is natural and ethical. Intolerant feelings are not surprising.He is also very clear that he has no similar feelings for those foreign students, he just likes Qi Congxue.

After finding out that he really fell in love with a man, he did not waver in the slightest, and began to visit Qi's mansion frequently, and became familiar with the terrain in a short period of time. From the original actor and fan, he became a bosom friend.

Han Xiu's connivance with Tong Xu is subtle and subtle, and unconsciously, his boundaries are loosened little by little.First is the address, and then the etiquette when visiting. Now that Tong Xu comes here without prior notice, he can run in directly. Even everyone in the house knows that the young master sincerely wants to be friends with Mr. Tong Xu. This relationship, He was closer to the third master than before.

Just as Han Xiu wanted to get up, his thoughts changed suddenly, and he lay back on the bed, clutching his forehead and mourning: "No, I have a headache, so, Qing'er, you go and help me go back to A Xu, just say I'm not at home today because of something. "

Qing'er was stunned: "But..." You have kept Mr. Tong waiting for so long, he already knew you were sleeping at home...

"Go quickly."

Han Xiu's voice sank, Qing'er didn't dare to ask any more questions, she quickly responded, and went out to pass on the message: "Mr. Tong, our young master has something to do today and is not at home."

Tong Xu was stunned with the hand holding the teacup, and said in surprise: "Didn't you say that he was sleeping before, how could this make him not at home? You have to ask to find out that he is not at home?" He felt strange , worried involuntarily, "But what's wrong?"

Qing'er hesitated for a while, but felt that the young master and Mr. Tong were very close, not to mention that he didn't tell himself to hide it, so he simply poured out the whole thing: "The young master just woke up, and he still looks smiling when he hears the voice, but I don't know why. Hearing the movement in the middle, it suddenly disappeared, and then heard the young master's uncomfortable voice, saying that he had a headache, maybe he was afraid that the husband would worry, so he asked Qing'er to say that he was not at home."

"Isn't this nonsense!" Tong Xujian frowned, "No, I have to go and see him."

He said he was going to go inside.Qing'er stood where she was, staring blankly at his receding back, vaguely understanding something.

==

Tong Xu went straight all the way to the inner room. He was lured here before, so it can be said that he has a clear goal.However, he hurriedly rushed to the closed door, but he hesitated.

If I broke in so abruptly, what if there was something wrong with Congxue... what should I do?

Biting his lower lip, worry still prevailed, no matter whether Congxue would be alienated from him or not, in short, he couldn't let him be sick and mess around by himself.He shouted at the door: "From the snow! From the snow!"

There was no answer.

He was even more anxious, and listened closely to the door, only to find that there were intermittent low panting and moaning sounds from inside, and the slightly sobbing voice was a bit hoarse, with an inexplicably sweet taste.

Tong Xu's face turned red all of a sudden, could it be, could it be that Congxue was... blaspheming herself?

As soon as this idea came to Tong Xu's mind, he galloped forward like a wild horse that had run free, or a wild boar that had rushed out of the fence.With the analysis speed of the brain that can analyze the structure of the gunboat in an instant, he quickly associated the graceful scenery inside with his voice. Tears, watery eyes staring loosely at the void, seductive moans pouring out from bright red lips... and the skirts that were opened wide due to body movements, those white and delicate hands, rubbing his own up and down ...

Thinking about Tong Xu himself, he is about to change. In this life, his character is like a volcano on the bottom of the sea. It is calm on the surface and unfathomable, but it is so hot inside that it can erupt at any time.The fire in the ice was easily shattered by Han Xiu's provocative gasps at this time, causing the tenacious flame underneath to burn all over Tong Xu's body in an instant, his ears were completely red, The knuckles of the fingers pressing the door were slightly white, biting his lip in a dilemma.

"Don't, um, go away..." The voice inside suddenly became louder, with a heart-piercing hoarseness.

Tong Xu was startled suddenly.Could it be someone!With a strong hand, the door that was not locked at all was easily pushed open, and he swept into the room in a panic.

nobody.

Apart from the trembling thin figure on the bed, there was no second person who bullied Qi Congxue as he imagined.

Without the barrier of a door panel, Qi Congxue's sobs became more obvious. His body trembled unceasingly, curled up into a small ball, turned sideways to the door, with his head in his hands, and the sobs that rang out from time to time were clearly genuine. Weep earnestly!

The thoughts in Tong Xu's heart were suddenly blown away at this moment, and he didn't care about anything else. He rushed forward and took a closer look, only to see Qi Congxue's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his knuckles turned white with force, and he even began to tremble physiologically. Tears flowed all over his face, his pupils had begun to spread out of focus, and he spit out unclear words.

"From the snow! From the snow! What's wrong with you?"

Tong Xu was so anxious that he put his arms around Qi Congxue's thin shoulders, feeling another person's Qi Congxue subconsciously clung to his body, and curled up into his arms, his body trembling, tears streaming down his face, and his hands tightly grasped Tong Xu's body. The placket on Xu's chest.

"Ah...Xu..." It seemed like it took a while before Qi Congxue, who was vaguely conscious, could vaguely distinguish the person in front of him.

"It's me, what's wrong with you?" Tong Xu suppressed the anxiety in his heart and asked softly.

"Hmm... opium... attack... want, quit... don't tell... third master..."

From Qi Congxue's intermittent explanation, Tong Xu easily came up with something that shocked him: Qi Congxue has the habit of smoking opium and is quitting smoking, and now is the time for the withdrawal reaction to occur.

For a moment, Tong Xu didn't have time to be surprised that Bai Yueguang, whom he held in his heart, would actually smoke opium, and his only reaction was to feel sorry for him for his hard work in quitting smoking.He was silent, and tightened his grip on the light and shameless young man in his arms. Seeing him with his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, in great pain, but still gritted his teeth and refused to beg him to give him a big cigarette, he silently Watching, for fear that he would hurt himself, he even grabbed his hands over his shoulders forcefully, allowing his fingernails and even a tooth to be embedded in the flesh.

He knows how harmful opium is, and he also knows how painful it is for Qi Congxue to quit smoking purely by his own perseverance.

Moreover, Tong Xu's face turned cold. Qi Congxue's sneaky but determined act of quitting smoking obviously made him think too much - he wanted to quit smoking, so how did he get addicted to smoking in the first place?The third master spoke kindly to him, but he, who was already familiar with Qi Congxue, could intuitively feel Qi Congxue's indifference to the third master, and he was unwilling to tell the third master such a good thing as quitting smoking... Oh, I'm afraid there is something dirty about it... Dirty deeds, but this so-called third master can't get involved!

Tong Xu snorted, blood was already oozing from his shoulders. Obviously, Qi Congxue, who was no longer conscious, had no intention of being polite just because he was a bosom friend.

However, he didn't get angry at all. Instead, he raised his hand to comfort his back, feeling the protruding ribs of the thin body's back, thinking distressedly why this handsome man is so weak.

After being exhausted, Qi Congxue finally survived a seizure and fell into a deep sleep.This was the first time Tong Xu saw Qi Congxue who was asleep. Even when he was asleep, his brows were still furrowed, as if his dream was not stable.The momentary flush when the addiction to cigarettes hit has receded, and now his face has no trace of blood, revealing a morbid paleness.

His fingers gently caressed the bloody lips,

It was stained with his own blood, but there were also Qi Congxue's own wounds, which he bit out when he was not here before.Even so, the lip color of the upper lip is still an unhealthy light color.So, when I met Qi Congxue before, did he put makeup on himself to cover up his sick appearance?

Qi Congxue uttered a raving in his sleep, and his body trembled. Tong Xu immediately held his palm with a big warm hand to comfort him.

"Don't be afraid, I'll be with you...you will definitely make it through."

The author has something to say:

cough cough...

To put it simply, it was Tong Xu's voice that made Han Voice Control Xiu's brain √【Tigers are not dirty at all, right! 】Let’s take a look at the eating instructions in this world:

1. Mr. Tong Xu is an upright "abstinence" officer, but he has a big brain.

2. The stupid author once again stumbled because he thought about the character first and then the plot. QAQ It's so hard to make up this story.

The stupid tiger is learning how to control the sense of rhythm from a book that exploded in the group, tsk, when I finish my studies, um...it seems that I can't marry you...
