Chapter 412: Shaving as a monk
Unexpectedly, I heard their conversation like this.
She looked at them in disbelief, and hurriedly stepped forward to take Shen Ruoxiao's hand, her nervous eyes widened.
"Princess Hao, tell me, what's wrong with Wen'er!"
"Mrs. Lu, Wen'er, she ......" Shen Ruoxiao really couldn't say it anymore, so she turned her face and sobbed in a low voice.
"Are you telling the truth? Wen'er, she was really, really killed by Xuanyuan Qi? Are you sure! ”
Mrs. Lu's hands kept trembling, and tears were already flowing.
She has always doted on these two daughters, no matter who she is, they all love the same, and now, has the youngest daughter left her like this?
She took a few steps back, and the personal maid hurriedly supported her. "Madam, watch out for your body!"
"No, I don't believe what you say, Wen'er won't leave me alone, what you said is not true! Not really! ”
Seeing that Mrs. Lu was so excited, Shen Ruoxiao couldn't bear it, and stepped forward to pull her.
"Mrs. Lu, we didn't expect this. Don't worry, I'll definitely make that Xuanyuan Qi pay all the price! ”
Mrs. Lu couldn't listen to anything anymore, and the news of Wen'er's death echoed in her mind.
She really couldn't accept this bad news, she hadn't taken a good look at her, why was it like this......
"Wen'er ......"
Mrs. Lu finally shouted softly and fainted.
Shen Ruoxiao immediately helped Concubine Lu up, took out a medicine bottle from her waist, hurriedly poured out a pill, and fed her to eat.
At this time, Concubine Lu's anxious voice came from outside the door, "Father, is my father here?" ”
Earlier, she saw the little maid in the front yard with a person coming into the house, and the back image was very much his father, it can't be true, right?
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao chuckled in his heart, and then lowered his eyelids helplessly.
Forget it, sooner or later they'll find out.
"Sister Lu, it's Lu Shangshu who is here, come in!"
Concubine Lu hurriedly pushed the door and went in, and when she entered, she saw Lu Shangshu sitting on the chair with a solemn face.
His whole body was shrouded in sorrow, his eyes were blank, as if his heart was dead.
"Father? What's wrong with you? ”
Concubine Lu walked up to Lu Shangshu with concern and covered the back of Lu Shangshu's hand.
Hearing this, the corners of Lu Shangshu's eyes twitched slightly, and then old tears suddenly flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
"Wen'er...... Wen'er ...... She's gone......"
"I didn't ...... Gone? What is the meaning? ”
Concubine Lu's fingers trembled in shock, as if she had been pricked by a needle, and then shook her head in disbelief.
"Father, you make it clear, what's wrong with Wen'er?"
She shook Lu Shangshu's arm twice, and seeing that Lu Shangshu didn't react, she turned to look at Shen Ruoxiao.
"Princess, what's wrong with Wen'er? What do you mean it's gone? ”
Shen Ruoxiao looked sad, "Wen'er, she died, she was killed by Xuanyuan Qi." ”
Concubine Lu was shocked all of a sudden, and her whole person was like a thunderbolt from the sky.
Suddenly, the tears on her face couldn't stop flowing down, and her eyes looked ahead in a daze.
Shen Ruoxiao sighed slightly, no one wants to see such a situation now.
But since it has happened, you can't live up to Lu Wen'er's death in vain.
"No, I'm going to find Xuanyuan Qi for revenge! I'm going to kill him this vile villain! Concubine Lu suddenly roared.
Her eyes were full of scarlet bloodshots, and her facial features looked a little hideous.
"Sister Lu, don't be impulsive!"
Shen Ruoxiao grabbed Concubine Lu's arm and looked at Lu Shangshu, with a little helplessness in his eyes.
"Don't be impulsive, it's my sister who died, how can I not be impulsive?" Concubine Lu almost roared in shock.
At this time, Lu Shangshu's eyes were much clearer, and he held down Concubine Lu.
"Your feelings are understandable to my father, Wen'er is my own daughter! But if you go to Xuanyuan Qi for revenge now, you will definitely have no chance of winning. Lu Shangshu said earnestly, his voice slightly hoarse.
"I don't care, Wen'er is gone... Even if I fight for my life, I'm going to kill him! ”
Concubine Lu was trembling all over, her eyes were full of murderous intent, and she seemed to have completely lost her mind.
At this time, Lu Shangshu was slightly angry, got up and raised his hand, and slapped it on the table with a bang.
"Then do you want the entire Lu family to be buried with you? Xuanyuan Qi is now very powerful in the DPRK, how can you be a weak woman who can compete with it? If you insist, it will only harm the entire Lu family! Lu Shangshu's tone was a little helpless.
He didn't want to kill Xuanyuan Qi to vent his hatred, but reason told him that he couldn't.
Shen Ruoxiao was silent on the side, she was just an outsider after all.
It's not easy for her to meddle in these things, so she can only observe the situation secretly.
Concubine Lu just glared angrily, didn't say a word, and didn't mean to back down at all.
Lu Shangshu sighed helplessly, and then walked behind her and patted her on the back.
"Child, now that the DPRK and China are in turmoil, the plague has broken out on a large scale, and Xuanyuan Qi's minions are prevalent, I, as a father, learned that my daughter was stabbed to death, but I can't act rashly, do you know that the father's heart is dripping blood?" Lu Shangshu wiped away his tears, and there was endless pain in his eyes. Starting point Chinese
Concubine Lu glanced up at Lu Shangshu, her mouth couldn't help but tremble slightly, but she couldn't make any sound, and the killing intent in her eyes faded slightly.
I saw her hugging Lu Shangshu, her head lying on his stomach, and she kept sobbing.
"Father, then what should we do, Wen'er died in vain?"
Lu Shangshu patted her back, and her eyes were also red.
"No, no, Wen'er won't die in vain."
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao couldn't help but be moved by it, although he was an official in the court, although he was beautiful on the surface, who would experience the pain in his heart?
"Father, such an earthly daughter doesn't want to stay at all, the daughter wants to become a nun and copy scriptures and recite Buddha for her sister, so that she can go over as soon as possible." Concubine Lu looked up at Lu Shangshu and said firmly.
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao glanced at Concubine Lu in surprise.
I didn't expect her to make such a decision.
Then he looked at Lu Shangshu again, and secretly sighed in his heart about the affection of this family.
"This ...... You've thought about it. Lu Shangshu frowned, his eyebrows were full of entanglement and helplessness.
What did his Lu family do to end up like this?
Seeing Concubine Lu nodded, her eyes were full of undoubtedness, and Lu Shangshu sighed helplessly, as if relieved.
How could something she had decided be changed so easily?
"Okay, as long as you live well." Lu Shangshu touched his daughter's head.
Although he is reluctant, he can only let go, and let him bear all the pain alone.
Concubine Lu Fang packed her luggage, and in the afternoon, Shen Ruoxiao went to Nanshan Temple with their father and daughter.
The carriage was bumpy along the way, but Concubine Lu was like water.
The three of them entered the monastery together and arrived at the place where they shaved their hair under the guidance of the abbot.
I saw Master Bodhi meditating in the monastery too indifferently, and opened his eyes when he felt someone coming.
"This is Concubine Lu from the capital, and now she wants to take refuge in Buddhism and stay away from the troubles of the world, you can help her shave her hair." The abbot said unhurriedly.
Master Bodhi glanced at Concubine Lu, then stood up, bowed, smiled at her and said, "Please come with me."
Then Master Bodhi turned around and walked inside, and Concubine Lu followed closely.
Shen Ruoxiao and Lu Shangshu also immediately followed.
"Sit here." Master Bodhi took a pair of scissors and pointed to the kneeling mat in front of the Buddha statue, her expression as indifferent as water.
Concubine Lu sat down without the slightest hesitation, facing the Buddha statue, her heart empty.
Master Bodhi gently untied Concubine Lu's hair, and three thousand green silks slid down her shoulders.
Master Bodhi touched the black hair, and the scissors in his hand shuttled between the hair one by one.
Strands of hair fell mercilessly to the ground, ending its life.
Lu Shangshu couldn't bear to see this scene and retreated, staring at the sky of fate, his eyes were extremely sad, like dead ashes, and would not recur.
And the culprit of all this is Xuanyuan Qi, if it weren't for him, how could Lu Shangshu's daughters fall into such a situation, and how could he be alone and melancholy?
Inside the temple, Master Bodhi had put away the scissors, and her hair covered the ground a little, as if she had lost all her life.
Immediately, she also crossed her legs and looked at Concubine Lu with indifferent eyes.
"The temple is lonely, only the Buddha's green lamp is accompanied, the morning and twilight are just like the winter lake, the waves are not uplifted, quietly and quietly. Did you know? ”
Master Bodhi's voice is as flat as water, and his eyes are like a deep pool.
Concubine Lu nodded, she had no nostalgia for the world.
Even if she is lonely and miserable, life is just a different way of life for her.
The only thing she wants to do now is to chant sutras for Lu Wen'er, so that she can have a good birth in the next life and not suffer like this in this life again.
"Everyone in the temple is a disciple of the Buddha, and there is no difference between high and low status, not as prosperous as the mortal world, and there is no delicacies from the mountains and seas. DID YOU KNOW? ”
The Bodhi Master didn't ask in his eyes, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.
"The little girl is tired of secular life, and she only wishes to be accompanied by the ancient Buddha of the green lantern for a long time, and she will know that she will be satisfied by chanting the scriptures and reciting the Buddha."
Concubine Lu's eyes couldn't help but be a little more determined, and she looked at Master Bodhi and said.
Master Bodhi paused, and then drew a graceful smile.
Her gaze stayed on Concubine Lu's face for a few seconds, and she couldn't help but nod.
"Now that you have shaved, don't be confused by the red dust, your heart is like stopping water, seeing all the feelings of the world, I hope you will recite the Buddha sincerely, and your heart will have no distracting thoughts." Master Bodhi said earnestly.
Concubine Lu breathed a sigh of relief, her hope was gone, and the matter of Hongchen was not worth worrying about, and the lonely and miserable Qing Xu was the most suitable for her.
After a while, Bodhi Guru found a new set of nun clothes.
After Concubine Lu put it on, she walked out, looking at Lu Shangshu's back and feeling a little regretful in her heart.
"Dad, my daughter can't give you filial piety in this life, I hope you forgive me, I will be your daughter in the next life, Wen'er's sister, and I will never be separated."
Concubine Lu had tears in her eyes, but she couldn't bear it and didn't let it fall.
If the only regret she has now is that she couldn't take care of her father in his old age, she doesn't have that opportunity.
But this regret she plans to keep for the rest of her life, and it always gives her some hope in her heart.
Lu Shangshu didn't know what to say, he just nodded blindly, tears slipped down again, and he could only hide in his heart if he was reluctant.
