On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness Chapter 358: 358: Why Not Shave the Beard?

Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Why Not Shave the Beard?

With that shout, the group of won stopped what they were doing and surged over to the ship’s post.

As they approached, they caught the stench of the foul sock stuffed in the old man’s mouth and all scrunched up their noses in disgust.

A middle-aged man spoke up, “I say we each give him a punch, just to vent our anger.”

An old man said, “Just now I thought I was going to die of pain, thank goodness for the lady’s acupuncture. Let’s not forget just how much it hurt!”

With this reminder, everyone imdiately recalled the unbearable abdominal pain they had endured and began to cry out, “Send him to the governnt!”

Upon hearing this, Leng Yu Yan scratched Ye Yiheng’s palm, knowing that if they really handed him over to the authorities, everyone on board would have to be witnesses at the governnt office and that could risk exposing him.

Ye Yiheng squeezed her hand, signaling her not to worry.

Sure enough, Jiang Xuan said, “This ship hit a reef, and although it has been repaired, we are still stuck on the reef. We need the water level to rise before we can continue. To send him to the governnt is not impossible, but it will cause so delay.”

The people imdiately realized that if they accompanied him to the governnt office, they would miss the New Year’s celebration at ho. What should they do?

For a mont, everyone was undecided.

On one hand, they wanted to vent their anger; on the other, they didn’t want to let the criminal off the hook.

Ye Yiheng cleared his throat, “Let him choose for himself.”

“Let him choose? How?” asked Jiang Xuan.

Ye Yiheng said indifferently, “Send him to the governnt, or have him take the dicine.”

Imdiately, soone loudly agreed, “Right, make him eat all the remaining laxative, then throw him off the ship. We don’t want to be on the sa boat with such scum!”

At these words, everyone agreed.

Jiang Xuan looked toward the shipman who had removed his sock earlier and gestured for him to un-gag the pointy-chinned old man.

The shipman nodded, stepped forward to untie the rope and pulled out the sock, the sll crinkling his brow and nose together.

Finally free from the mouth restraint, the old man cursed, “You bunch of bastards, what right do you have to tie up?”

Lao Liu stepped forward, holding out a piece of parchnt, “By this, while you were out cold, we were all wide awake and understood your evil intentions!”

“Now you have two options. One is that we send you to the governnt. The other is you eat everything inside this parchnt.”

The old man said, “I won’t eat it!”

Lao Liu asked, “So, you an to be sent to the governnt?”

“Send to the governnt, you all won’t get to go ho for New Year,” the old man said with a wily smile.

At that mont, Ye Yiheng spoke slowly and deliberately, “According to Tiancheng law, those who commit serious cris face ten years in prison. Given the number of people you have victimized, ten years might not be enough.”

Upon hearing this, the old man’s face collapsed, “Then I’ll eat the dicine.”

Lao Liu opened the parchnt, and the shipman pried open the slly mouth of the old man to pour all the dicine from the paper down his throat.

The old man sneezed, blowing a good amount of dicine powder out of his mouth and nose.

The n who had been hit by the won and had no outlet for their frustration shouted, “Thinking you can be done with it just by eating the dicine? It’s not that easy!”

The others quickly echoed the sentint.

The n who had been beaten by the won now treated the old man like a punching bag.

Unable to bear it any longer, the old man pleaded, “I am just a swindler from the Jianghu, I poison people, then sell them the cure. Please let go, I won’t dare do it again!”

Soone loudly called out, “Throw him overboard; with this kind of person on board, who knows how he might secretly harm us next.”

The crowd roared their agreent.

Lao Liu looked toward Jiang Xuan, who nodded in agreent.

Lao Liu then ordered a shipman to untie the hemp ropes from the old man.

No sooner had the ropes been removed, the sharp-faced, monkey-cheeked old man dashed toward the railing and leapt into the cold river waters.

“Is he trying to escape?”

“In any case, if he didn’t jump, we were planning to throw him overboard.”

As people discussed the situation while looking at the river, a string of bubbles erged behind the old man, and the water behind him soon beca a turbid color.

The people on the ship covered their mouths: “Ugh!”

Suddenly, soone pointed at the old man and shouted, “Look, that old man is actually swimming quite fast.”

Soone else said indignantly, “It seems we made it too easy for him.”

Leng Yu Yan spoke insipidly, “The dose was too high, the faster it takes effect, the longer it will last. He won’t be able to swim very far.”

Hearing this, everyone felt relieved.

“That sharp-faced, monkey-cheeked one, you can tell he’s no good at first glance.”

“Right, he brought it on himself; the cold river water will freeze him to death.”

With the matter thus resolved, people on the ship suddenly turned their attention to the stinky socks on the floor.

A woman pinched her nose, “Why do these socks stink so much?”

The owner of the socks, feeling embarrassed, scratched his head. Rembering that a beautiful girl had relieved his stomach pain with acupuncture, he asked, “Kind lady, how do I treat my slly feet?”

Leng Yu Yan asked, “Slly feet?”

Ye Yiheng stepped closer, does he expect her to treat another man’s slly feet?

How was she supposed to treat that?

Whether it’s through observation, listening, questioning, or palpating, none of those thods would work!

He certainly wasn’t going to allow her to look at other n’s slly feet. For him, who was fastidious about cleanliness, it was unbearable.

Leng Yu Yan also found the question challenging; although she was a doctor, it was the first ti, whether in modern tis or this era, that soone had co to her with a problem of slly feet.

The shipman said with embarrassnt, “Actually, it’s not just ; several of us shipn have stinky feet.”

Leng Yu Yan thought for a mont and asked, “You all have sothing in common: living on the ship for a long ti, preferring to eat at and drink alcohol, and not fond of eating vegetables and fruits, am I right?”

A shipman imdiately replied, “Right, the vegetables on the ship are for the guests, and the fruit is for the lady; we mostly eat at.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu scoffed, “What’s wrong with the lady eating so fruit? Do you dare to compete with for it?”

Leng Yu Yan said slowly, “The problem lies here; you need a well-rounded diet because the human body requires balanced nutrition.”

“You must eat at, but you also need to eat vegetables and fruits. As for the slly feet, it’s likely due to so people’s poor hygiene habits.”

She did not directly state the problem of not washing feet, but the shipn themselves knew well and hung their heads in embarrassed discomfort.

Then, she continued, “From now on, when you wash your feet daily, add so tea leaves and salt to the hot water; it can help alleviate the issue.”

The shipn, not daring to get close to the Heavenly Immortal-like Leng Yu Yan, for fear that the odor from their feet might offend her, all bowed to her from a distance.

At that mont, a woman, swaying her hips, ca forward and looked disdainfully at Leng Yu Yan, asking, “Miss, you provided a solution without checking; is it reliable?”

Ye Yiheng shielded Leng Yu Yan behind him, “Those who believe can try for themselves, those who don’t believe may seek an expert elsewhere.”

The woman, seeing that the beard-frad man was actually handso, quickly changed her attitude, “Sir, you are quite handso. Why not shave the beard off so we all can see just how handso you really are?”
