So many things had happened on the road, and their moods had also changed.
Without hesitation, Lin Luo officially revealed his identity to Master Lu and the Lu sisters. After all, he was about to take the Lu sisters away. If he still did not tell them his identity, it would be a little disrespectful.
Without a doubt, Lin Luo's confession shocked everyone in the Lu family.
However, after recovering from his shock, Duke Lu was overjoyed.
This world belonged to Great Qin, and the Ninth Prince Lin Luo had obtained the First Emperor's favor. Anyone who asked would know about this.
What was there to hesitate about? He had to agree!
In order for his two daughters to have a good home, to leave a good reputation among the nobles of the State of Qin, and to leave a good impression on Lin Luo, Duke Lu sent three carriages of dowry, totaling no less than hundreds of thousands of gold.
This was quite a large amount of wealth, enough to arm thousands of elite soldiers. Even Great Qin's officials might not be able to afford it.
It could be said that in order for the royal family not to look down on the merchant's daughter, Lu Gong was going all out.
However, he also had his own plans. If he could make contact with the royal family, he would benefit greatly in the future, whether it was his business or his family's power.
A businessman's brain was very smart!
The happy Duke Lu held a small family banquet on the same day.
There was no one else, only Duke Lu, Lu Zhi, Lu Su, and Lin Luo.
The four of them enjoyed the family banquet.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed. Lin Luo and the others set off for Xianyang.
Lin Luo, Han Xin, and fifty other guards had come. On the way back, Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Cao Shen, Xiahou Ying, and Zhou Bo had also come along. Of course, they had also brought the two sisters, Lu Su and Lu Zhi.
There were also a few carriages of gold, silver, jewelry, silk, satin, and treasures.
Lu Su and Lu Zhi sat in the carriage, sandwiched in the middle of the group, while Lin Luo rode outside.
During the break, Lu Su called Lin Luo into the carriage and looked at him seriously.
"When we reach Xianyang, what are you going to do with us sisters?"
"You should already know my feelings. I will definitely not let you sisters down."
Lin Luo did not expect Lu Su to ask so formally.
However, this was understandable. After all, Lu Su was not a delicate little girl who was brave enough to pursue what she wanted.
Especially after Lin Luo revealed his identity, she felt very insecure.
After all, in this era, the status of merchants was low, not to mention the daughter of a merchant.
Lin Luo was born into a noble family and was liked by the First Emperor. He might even have a chance to ascend to the throne in the future. This kind of person was the favorite son-in-law of countless nobles and high-ranking officials in Great Qin.
"Sister…"
The considerate Lu Su pulled her sister's sleeve and persuaded Lu Zhi in a low voice.
She was already very satisfied with the current situation.
After all, Lin Luo's status was noble. In Lu Su's opinion, Lin Luo had already made a promise just now. Moreover, from a certain perspective, the two sisters were already considered to be climbing up the social ladder.
However, Lu Zhi did not think so. She pulled her sister's hand and analyzed very seriously,"Lu Su, you're still young and don't understand. Many things aren't as simple as they seem. People like Young Master are extremely popular in Great Qin, and there are countless nobles, nobles, and factions eyeing them. If we don't have an identity, when those families 'daughters hook up with us, who knows where we'll end up?"
"Don't worry, I swear in the name of the Great Qin Empire's Prince that when we reach Xianyang, I will definitely give you a title."
Lin Luo smiled. What else could he say? He didn't care about family status. This era was much more tolerant than the later generations, so it wasn't difficult to give the Lu sisters names.
As for whether the imperial family would have any objections, he couldn't be bothered.
Moreover, the First Emperor was an emperor through the ages, and his thoughts were not something that other mortal disciples could compare to.
Lin Luo comforted Lu Su and Lu Zhi and ordered the team to continue forward. They passed by a village that was plagued by a plague.
"Everyone, retreat! Stay far away!"
Lin Luo shouted for everyone to leave.
These were the guards of the Young Master's Residence who obeyed orders. Upon hearing Lin Luo's instructions, they immediately avoided the village.
Lin Luo nodded and rode forward, wanting to take a closer look at the village.
"Young Master, you can't!"
Han Xin was shocked. If this prince was infected with the plague, then things would be very serious.
At that time, it would not be just them who would be punished.
"It's fine…"
Waving his hand, Lin Luo signaled Han Xin not to make a fuss.
The village in front of him was extremely desolate. It had completely become a living hell. Corpses could be seen everywhere.
Some of the people who were still alive were lying on the ground, trembling. From the looks of it, if they were not treated in time, they would not live for long.
This was a plague. In this era where medical conditions were not good, as long as one was infected, whether they could survive or not basically depended on heaven's will.
Although the efficacy of Chinese medicine was not bad, the problem was that the effect was too slow. Unless it was a very suitable medicine, it was difficult to cure so many people at once.
Lin Luo frowned. As Great Qin's Prince, these people were Great Qin's subjects. However, although he had a strong physique and was not afraid of the plague, he did not know much about medicine. He did not know how to treat the sick and save people. Moreover, it was obvious that it was too late for him to do so with the situation in the village.
"Even though Great Qin has unified the world and is awe-inspiring, there are still many things to do."
He sighed. Even though he had done many things over the years and changed Great Qin, there were still many things that he needed to make up for.
Lin Luo turned around and instructed Han Xin,"Go and take out all the medicine we brought. Give it to these people. Save as many as you can."
"Yes, sir."
Han Xin nodded. He had followed Lin Luo for many years and had seen many extraordinary things about him. His literary talent and martial strategy were all amazing, but sometimes, he was too kind.
However, as the subordinates of such a young master, they were all very lucky.
"The two of you don't come over, the rest of you use cloth to cover your mouth and nose."
Waving his hand to stop Lu Zhi and his sister who wanted to help, Lin Luo brought some guards to distribute the medicine to those who were still alive and watched as they finished using the medicine.
As for how many people could be saved, it would depend on the heavens.
Then, they sprinkled the lime powder they carried around the village to disinfect the surroundings before they set off.
