Before the 1990s, most people used letters to contact distant relatives and friends. Ordinary people, receiving a letter, is a very normal thing. However, put on some special people, this will attract the attention of many people.
In 1961, Chairman Mao received a letter from an actress. Because the other party's origin was not known, this made the security bureau guarding the chairman's safety very nervous. However, after the chairman saw the contents of the letter, when he replied to the other party, he called himself "father". Why?

Jiangxi is the cradle of the Red Revolution. In the history of China's revolution, Jiangxi has always been a very important red base area. During the period of the agrarian revolution, our Party successively established a number of revolutionary strongholds in Jiangxi, such as the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area and the Xianggan Revolutionary Base Area.
After the founding of New China, Lushan in Jiangxi became the address of many important meetings. In August 1961, the leaders of the Party Central Committee came to Lushan, Jiangxi Province again and held a working meeting. The meeting began on August 23 and ended on September 16.
The meeting lasted for more than twenty days, and the participants were very hard. In order to let the leaders feel the diversified leisure and entertainment activities in their spare time, the personnel in charge of logistics work arranged for the comrades of the cultural and labor troupe to perform song and dance performances, condolence performances and other activities, bringing the leaders literary and artistic appreciation and enjoyment.
The Jiangxi Provincial Agricultural Reclamation Cultural and Labor Troupe was given the task of performing theatrical performances in Lushan. This cultural and labor troupe was founded by Wang Dongsheng, then director of the Jiangxi Agricultural Reclamation Department. After receiving the task, Wang Dongsheng and the leaders of the cultural and labor troupe began to discuss the program arrangements for the literary and artistic performances.
In the process of discussing the program list, the leader of the cultural troupe proposed: "Watching our literary and artistic performances can enable the leaders to enjoy spiritual culture." Involve leaders, and the results should be better. Wang Dongsheng was very interested in the words of the regiment leader, looked at him and said: "You talk carefully, how to let the leaders participate?" ”
Seeing that his views might be adopted, the head of the troupe was very happy: "We can hold a dinner ball, let the comrades of the troupe invite the leaders to dance together." After listening to this, Wang Dongsheng thought about it and nodded in agreement: "Your idea is very good, I will go to the leaders for instructions." ”
In the end, after consideration by the logistics department, the proposal of the cultural troupe was agreed, and the work related to the dance party was arranged. First of all, it is necessary to select dance partners to dance with the leaders in the cultural and labor troupe. Many of the dancers in the troupe were successfully selected. Among them, a female comrade named Xing Yunsheng was selected as Chairman Mao's dance partner.
On the night of the ball, Chairman Mao was the last to enter the venue. As soon as he entered, Chairman Mao was surrounded by many people like stars and moons. Xing Yunsheng could only stand silently next to him, waiting for the chairman to talk to the crowd. She thought: After the chairman finished talking, she would go up and greet the chairman.
However, before Xing Yunsheng could take the initiative to find the chairman, Chairman Mao came to Xing Yunsheng and said to her kindly: "Are you, the female comrade, the dance partner they arranged for me?" After hearing Xing Yunsheng's affirmative answer, the chairman smiled and said, "Then let's start dancing, if we don't dance, the dance party will be over." You can't make a trip in vain. ”
After that, the chairman and Xing Yunsheng danced and talked at the same time. The chairman, like an elder, asked Xing Yunsheng very kindly about his work, life, and other aspects. After calming down the excitement and excitement of meeting the chairman, Xing Yunsheng answered the chairman's questions very seriously.
Looking at such a young and energetic lesbian, the chairman thought of his daughter. For various reasons, the chairman's two daughters did not live with him, and they rarely saw each other. The Chairman therefore missed them very much.
Seeing Xing Yunsheng, who was about the same age as his daughter, the chairman felt very kind. In the midst of talking and getting along, the chairman also treated her as his own daughter. After the dance, the chairman would invite Xing Yunsheng to walk and chat together in his free time. The two also formed a very deep friendship.
On September 16, 1961, the meeting in Lushan ended. The Chairman will return to Beijing to carry out his work. Xing Yunsheng is also going to return to work in the literary troupe. Before leaving, the chairman and Xing Yunsheng said: "You are a good boy. When you go back, work hard and live well. You will treat me as your father, and when things get in trouble, you can write to me. ”
After speaking, the chairman told Xing Yunsheng a receiving address. After hearing the chairman's words, Xing Yunsheng was very touched by the chairman's love and care for himself, and smiled and said to the chairman: "Okay, chairman. After that, Xing Yun sent the chairman away.
Xing Yunsheng also knew that the chairman let himself write a letter to him when he encountered problems, which was a good intention. However, the chairman's work is very busy, and it is best not to try not to write to the chairman and not to disturb the work of the chairman. Therefore, after the chairman returned to Beijing, he did not receive a letter from Xing Yunsheng.
A month later, Xing Yunsheng encountered a very difficult decision. After she thought about it, she couldn't make a decision. At this time, she thought of Chairman Mao's words. She began to try to write letters to Chairman Mao and sent them to the address that Chairman Mao had told her.
However, in Zhongnanhaili, Beijing, when receiving the letter sent to the chairman, the security bureau was very nervous. The Zhongnanhai Security Bureau is responsible for the safety and security of the chairman. They did not miss a single possibility that might threaten the president's safety.
In order to protect the security of the Chairman, the Address of the President needs to be kept confidential. Therefore, the disclosure of the chairman's address is a very important thing for the Security Bureau. The Security Bureau investigated the source of the letter and finally found that the mail was sent by a comrade of the literary troupe named Xing Yunsheng.
After that, the Security Bureau reported the matter to the Chairman. At this time, the chairman realized that because he regarded Xing Yunsheng as a daughter, he took the role of a father and told her the address. Forgetting that you are still the leader of the country, you need to keep your address secret.
Therefore, after reading Xing Yunsheng's letter, the chairman wrote a reply to her, answered the question Xing Yunsheng said in the letter, and then explained the address to her. Ask her to send the letter to another address later.
Although this letter alarmed the Zhongnanhai Guard Bureau. However, the friendship between the chairman and the criminal voice was not affected by this. Because of a chance meeting, the chairman and the criminal yunsheng formed a deep friendship. The chairman is like a father, providing guidance and help to the torturer.
