Chapter 123 Meditation
Minister Lu sighed deeply, and the determination in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by a hint of helplessness. He gently patted his daughter's shoulder and whispered, "Wanqing, you know I have always been planning for you, but I can't compromise on this matter."
Lu Wanqing's tears flowed even more violently. She bit her lips tightly, trying hard not to let herself break down.
She slowly let go of her father's hand, with a determined light in her eyes: "Father, I understand. But I will solve this matter in my own way."
Liao Feiyun looked at Lu Wanqing and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
This woman, no matter what, is the most important person in his life. He slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Minister Lu: "Master Lu, I am willing to accept any punishment, I only ask you to give me a chance to prove my feelings for Wan Qing."
Minister Lu looked at his daughter and Liao Feiyun, and the anger in his heart slowly dissipated.
He pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Since you are all so determined, then I will give you a chance. But you must promise me that from now on, you will no longer do anything radical."
Lu Wanqing and Liao Feiyun nodded at the same time, their eyes filled with gratitude.
……
Mrs. Lu hurriedly took the monk out of the door. Lu Wanqing in the room was still crying, losing her temper, and smashing things in the room.
Mrs. Lu gently pushed open the door and saw the room in a mess. Her daughter Lu Wanqing was crying and the jade ruyi in her hand was broken into pieces. The pieces shone coldly on the floor. She hurriedly signaled the monk to come in with her, with a look of anxiety and helplessness on her face.
The monk put his hands together, smiling and looking calm, as if he was already accustomed to all this. He slowly walked in front of Lu Wanqing and said softly: "Miss Wanqing, the many hardships in life are all tests on the road of cultivation. Have you ever thought about the meaning behind these hardships?"
Lu Wanqing raised her head and looked at the monk with tearful eyes, her tone carrying some resentment: "Master, I understand what you said, but this ordeal is too heavy for me to bear!"
The monk smiled and said slowly, "Miss Wanqing, please listen to what I have to say. Everything in this world has its cause and effect. The reason you are experiencing hardships is because of the unfinished karma of your previous life. Now, you should let go of your obsession and face it bravely, so that you can resolve the disaster."
Mrs. Lu was relieved to see her daughter gradually calm down. She walked to the monk and asked softly, "Master, is there any way to help my daughter get out of this predicament?"
The monk pondered for a moment and said, "Madam, do you know who Miss Wanqing was in her previous life?"
Madam Lu shook her head: "Master, Wanqing has been very smart since she was a child, but I really don't know her past life."
The monk said slowly: "Miss Wanqing was a fairy with profound cultivation in her previous life. Because of a single thought, she violated the heavenly rules and was sent to the mortal world, where she suffered a lot. Now, she needs to find the memory of her previous life in order to resolve the disaster."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanqing's eyes flashed with astonishment: "Master, is what you said true? Then how can I find the memory of my previous life?"
The monk said, "Miss Wanqing, you just need to calm down, meditate every day, and comprehend the universe. When the time is right, the memories of your past life will naturally emerge. Then, you will be able to resolve the disaster and be reborn."
A trace of determination flashed in Lu Wanqing's eyes. She wiped away her tears and said to the monk: "Master, I will follow your instructions. I hope I can find the memory of my previous life as soon as possible and resolve the disaster."
The monk nodded and smiled, then turned to Madam Lu and said, "Madam, don't worry, Miss Wanqing will definitely get out of this predicament. I am here and am willing to lend her a helping hand."
Since then, Lu Wanqing began her journey of Zen meditation. Every morning, she would come to the Zen room in the backyard, sit in meditation, and comprehend the universe.
After a period of time, Lu Wanqing gradually calmed down and no longer lost her temper easily.
One day, Lu Wanqing was meditating when she suddenly felt a blackness in front of her eyes, as if she was in a dark void. She groped her way forward and suddenly saw a door full of light. She pushed the door open without hesitation, and saw a beautiful fairy standing in front of her.
The fairy looked at her with a smile and said, "Wanqing, you are finally here. I am your master from your previous life, and I am waiting for you here specially."
Lu Wanqing's eyes were blurred with tears. She held the fairy's hand tightly and said, "Master, I finally found you. I am willing to follow you to practice and resolve the disaster."
The fairy nodded gently and said, "Okay, from now on, you will embark on a new path of cultivation. As long as you have firm faith and move forward courageously, you will be able to resolve the disaster and regain a new life."
A gleam of determination flashed in Lu Wanqing's eyes. She held her master's hand tightly and followed her on a new journey of cultivation.
Lu Wanqing was furious, "Where did you come from, you monk? Get out of here!"
The monk had a calm face, and was not disturbed. He slowly raised his head, his eyes were as clear as water, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Upon hearing the noise, Madam Lu hurried out of the inner room and saw that the monk was safe and sound, but her daughter Lu Wanqing was furious. She quickly walked to Lu Wanqing, patted her shoulder gently, and whispered, "Wanqing, please don't be disrespectful." Then, she turned to the monk, smiled, and said in a calm tone, "Master, may I ask where you are from? What can I do for you?"
The monk smiled slightly, clasped his hands and said, "My name is Wuchen. I came from afar. I heard that the Lu Mansion is a kind and righteous family, so I came to visit you."
Madam Lu nodded slightly, with a hint of praise in her eyes: "Master, you are too polite. In that case, please follow me into the inner hall and have a chat."
The three of them walked into the inner hall together and sat down as host and guest. Although Lu Wanqing's anger had not completely dissipated, seeing that her mother was so polite, she had no choice but to suppress her temper and sit aside to watch what would happen.
Master Wuchen looked calm and said slowly, "I came here to ask you a favor. In recent years, the people of Western Wei have suffered a lot and wars have continued. I want to build a temple in Lu Mansion to pray for the people and save the souls of the dead. What do you think, Madam?"
Lu Wanqing frowned when she heard this, and was about to speak, but Madam Lu stopped her. Madam Lu pondered for a moment and said, "Master, you are kind-hearted, and I am willing to support you. However, setting up a temple is a big deal, and we need to discuss it carefully."
Master Wuchen nodded and smiled: "Madam, you are very thoughtful. I am very grateful. However, I have something else to ask of you. I wonder if Madam is willing to agree to it?"
Mrs. Lu smiled slightly and said, "Master, please speak."
Master Wuchen said, "I would like to borrow your daughter Lu Wanqing. She is very talented. If she can practice with me, she will definitely benefit all living beings."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Wanqing's face changed drastically, and she was furious: "I am the eldest daughter of the Lu family, how can I practice with you? Are you crazy?"
Master Wuchen still had a smile on his face, his eyes were clear: "Miss Wanqing, I am not asking you to become a nun, I just hope you can practice with me for a while, so as to help you open your wisdom and benefit the people."
