Chapter 8456 The Truth
Beijing.

Osmanthus fragrance.

"Son..."

Qu Yaxiang hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't make a decision.

Although Ren Qingyuan said that he was ready, the news was really unexpected.

"Ma'am, just tell the young master. You can't hide this matter."

Tranquility held the plate and sat aside, persuading while peeling soybeans.

"it is good."

Glancing at Ren Qingyuan's expectant and apprehensive expression, Qu Yaxiang took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Son, this whistle...it was given by your father, your dear father!"

After finally speaking, the stone that had been pressing on Qu Yaxiang's heart finally fell smoothly.

"My father? He... Didn't he die early?"

Ren Qingyuan originally thought that there was no news that would surprise him, but in fact, after hearing what his mother said, his brain felt as if he had been hit by a giant hammer.

Immediately, he was in a daze, not knowing where to go.

"It's my fault."

Qu Yaxiang smiled wryly and said: "In the early years, I really thought your father was no longer alive...Who would have thought that your father, he was imprisoned for more than ten or twenty years."

"In prison? What crime has he committed?"

Ren Qingyuan said suspiciously.

When he was young, his mother told him that his father was an upright man.

Therefore, in his heart, the image of his father is extremely stalwart and tall.

How could such a father have been imprisoned for more than ten or twenty years?
Only felons who have committed serious crimes will be locked up in jail.

"He didn't commit a crime, your father, he is a good man, how could he do such a thing as a dog and a thief."

Qu Yaxiang's tone was very affirmative and firm.

"Then why?"

"It's not appropriate for you to know about this now. You just need to know that your father is not a sinner."

Qu Yaxiang shook her head.

Seeing his mother's attitude, Ren Qingyuan knew that his mother would not tell him the reason.

That being the case, he asked the most critical question.

"My father, who is he?"

As long as he knew who his father was, such mysteries might be solved.

"Your father, his surname is not Ren, this waywardness is the surname of my mother's mother..."

"Your father, his surname is Taishu, with one single name, B."

"What? My father, he is Grand Uncle Yi? Is that Tai Shuyi?"

Ren Qingyuan showed disbelief in his eyes.

"That's right, it's Tai Shuyi you were thinking of, General Tai Shuyi who conquered Peking University!"

At the mention of this name, Qu Yaxiang looked extremely proud, and his eyes seemed to brighten a bit.

Ren Qingyuan stood up, quickly left the room, and went to the yard.

Qu Yaxiang wanted to catch up, but was held down by Tranquility.

"Madam, leave him alone for a while."

"All right……"

Qu Yaxiang sat down again and peeled soybeans with Tranquility.

After so many years of life, she has already made her no longer the untouchable young lady. She is not inferior to Tranquility when it comes to housework.

Ren Qingyuan stood in the yard, looking at the ivy on the wall.

It was the middle of winter, and the ivy had turned yellow and lost a lot of leaves, showing a depressed scene.

But Ren Qingyuan knew that in the spring and summer of the coming year, the ivy would become lush again.

Winter goes and spring comes again, and life goes round and round, this is the most reasonable thing in the world.

And human life is not without a source.

As long as people live in this world, they will have parents.

Even though there have been so many years of hardships, at this moment, at least he has his mother by his side and his father is still alive, that's enough.

No matter what his father's status is, whether he is a high-ranking official or an ordinary citizen, that is his father...

When Ren Qingyuan returned to the house again, there was no excitement on his face, only calm and calm.

"My son, are you okay?" Qu Yaxiang asked with concern.

"It's okay, mother, my father..."

Before Ren Qingyuan could ask, his words were interrupted by Qu Yaxiang.

"I was going to tell you."

"Since your father got out of prison, he has been appointed by the emperor as the general who conquers the North. Time is running short. He came out to meet his mother. Then, he will immediately lead the troops to the north."

Qu Yaxiang said.

"No wonder you put away father's sacrifices and portraits, mother."

Ren Qingyuan suddenly understood the reason for the recent series of strange events.

"Your father is still alive. Those things are unlucky. Of course, mother should put them away."

"This whistle was given by your father. As long as you blow it, the hidden guards of the imperial court nearby will definitely arrive."

"This new house was bought with the money given by your father, and there are hidden guards from the imperial court secretly protecting it nearby."

Qu Yaxiang said.

"The child understands."

Ren Qingyuan nodded.

It is the court's usual practice to let the hidden guards protect the family members of the generals who are going to war.

Protection is real, and so is surveillance.

"Your father didn't do anything wrong to us, he has no other wives, children, son, don't resent your father, he, these years have not been easy."

Qu Yaxiang exhorted again.

"How can a child hate father?"

What Ren Qingyuan said was naturally the truth.

Filial piety is the foundation of being a human being.

And Ren Qingyuan is a very filial scholar.

"Mother, I will study hard when I go back to the academy tomorrow."

Ren Qingyuan said.

He is going to do his best to gain fame. Since his father is the general who conquered the Peking University, his son must live up to his expectations and rely on his own ability to honor his family and not embarrass his ancestors.

"Your father's family, don't worry about it for now. When your father returns from the front line, he will handle it himself." Qu Yaxiang said.

Tai Shu Yi's Tai Shu was originally a famous family, and he was the leader of the earliest succession. Tai Shu Yi was the pride of Tai Shu's family back then, and it was also the banner of Tai Shu's family's glory again.

But with Taishuyi's disappearance and the emperor's punishment, the whole Taishuyi fell into darkness and decline.

So much so that after Tai Shuyi appeared in front of the world again, he didn't dare to go back to the family.

"The boy knows."

Those things have nothing to do with him. Ren Qingyuan intends to act according to his own plan and ignores everything else.

"Mother, my father is on the front line, will it be very dangerous?" Ren Qingyuan was a little worried.

"It's not dangerous to march and fight."

"I still remember that when your father came back from an expedition, I took off the armor for him. The armor was stained with blood and stuck to his back. When I pulled it, a piece of flesh was torn off..."

Qu Yaxiang sighed.

"However, you don't have to worry about your father. Your father is a real genius. He will be fine."

In this regard, Qu Yaxiang is very convinced, and this firm belief also includes a kind of worship.

"Mother, you don't let me practice martial arts, are you worried that I will go to the battlefield like my father?"

Ren Qingyuan suddenly remembered that he had been taught since he was a child not to practice martial arts.
