The greatest security precaution was to strip them naked and have them put on clothes from this place.
That would prevent them from carrying dangerous items no one here recognized.
Wenren Sheng could not help nodding. This Princess was very calculating.
At a glance, she was no good person.
If she had directly said they needed to be searched, it would have aroused resistance in all seven of them.
Using bathing as an excuse made things much easier.
Glasses Man, however, was somewhat puzzled.
He had already figured out that this was a Middle Ages setting.
Yet in the Middle Ages, nobles rarely bathed.
They believed bathing would destroy the protective layer on the human body and invite illness.
Such as colds and fevers.
In truth, this was quite common.
Fuel was scarce in the Middle Ages, making it difficult to heat water.
If many people wanted to bathe, they could only use cold water.
How could they possibly heat water frequently just to bathe?
How much firewood would that consume? Coal was not yet widely used in the Middle Ages, and even what was produced was limited.
But bathing frequently in cold water could easily cause a cold.
A single cold and fever was a trip to death's door.
Even modern people often caught colds from cold showers,
let alone ancient people.
Over time, they became unwilling to bathe.
Besides, many people only bathed a few times in their entire lives and still lived to old age.
Yet these people were being asked to bathe now. It was clearly something that went somewhat against their habits.
The seven of them could also smell that the Princess was drenched in perfume.
She was using perfume to suppress a peculiar stench.
She could be called a typical stinky Middle Ages Princess.
