There were quite a lot of things listed on the plan, but when he actually ate them, the young prince understood why his father hated this plan so much.
Because the food was not delicious at all, the most delicious things turned out to be rice and steamed buns, which were a bit sweet at least.
Dishes for people who are trying to lose weight should be light food with less oil and less salt. If Prince Gong is so fat, he naturally likes food with strong taste. The young prince eats it with his father, so the taste will naturally not be much lighter.
So within two days, the young prince couldn't bear it anymore. He wiped his tears in front of Zhou Man and said, "Master Zhou, is there no salt in the palace?"
The little prince was only seven years old. Although he was chubby, he could still be called cute at this time. He was not as obese as Prince Gong, so Zhou Man's attitude towards him was much better. She said: "Reduce the weight."
That’s what’s important, you need to eat a light diet, and salt is the most important thing to control.”
Seeing his tearful eyes, Man Bao felt a little sympathetic and said, "Otherwise, I'll give you an extra piece of meat for dinner tonight."
The young prince immediately shook his head, "I don't want to eat more meat. I want to have an extra bowl of rice. Is that okay?"
Mr. Zhou's meat is boiled in water with just a little salt. It's not tasty at all. It's not as delicious as white rice or steamed buns.
Man Bao thought for a while and then said: "Half a bowl."
The young prince breathed out a breath, turned around and left happily.
During dinner, Prince Gong was unhappy, "Why can he add half a bowl of rice, but I can't?"
Zhou Man, who was supervising on the side, said without raising his head: "The little prince is still growing in body and intelligence. Although I think the rice and noodles I gave him are enough, if he still wants to eat it in his heart, maybe it is because of the extra need to grow in intelligence.
, so you can increase it appropriately."
After saying that, she raised her eyelids and glanced at Prince Gong, saying, "But Your Highness doesn't need it."
At this age, it is impossible to grow taller, and it is also unlikely to grow intellectually. He may simply want to eat.
Prince Gong:……
Princess Gong lowered her head and suppressed her laughter before raising her head and picking up a chopstick for her son. "Eat quickly. You have been doing a lot of homework recently. After eating, you will go for a walk and you will have to do some exercise when you come back."
The young prince lowered his head, finished eating his share of food, and then went for a walk obediently.
Prince Gong is too fat. Unlike the young prince who can practice martial arts and boxing in the indoor martial arts field, he has another way of exercise. He can exercise while sitting or lying down, but the force exerted is not small.
The snacks and fruits for the father and son also stopped. Although Zhou Man still gave them fruits and vegetables, the amount was reduced a lot, so that was fine. What made them sad was that there was not even one piece of snack left.
In less than three days, Prince Gong and the young prince's mouths were no longer as talkative as birds, and sometimes they couldn't walk when they saw the servants' food.
I always feel that the food my servants eat tastes better than them.
But success is also gratifying. Although it has only been three days, Prince Gong lost three kilograms during the weigh-in, almost one kilogram a day.
The younger prince was a little slower, but he still lost a pound in three days, and Zhou Man was very satisfied with it.
Prince Gong was too tired to think anymore.
Because the young prince still has to go to school, the exercise time Zhou Man set for him is not long, two quarters of an hour in the morning, two quarters of an hour at noon, and two quarters of an hour in the evening, which is a very good combination of work and rest.
Prince Gong spent almost the whole day in a cycle of eating-resting-exercising-resting-eating-exercising. When he returned to the room, his mind could no longer move. He asked Princess Gong, "Haven't Zhou Man begged you yet?"
?”
Princess Gong shook her head, "I heard that the angels from the capital are still investigating. Mr. Zhou has only gone out once in the past two days. Didn't you also see it?"
"It's almost the New Year, can Yu Huai be found out? You can't find out and beg me, you idiot."
He just wanted Zhou Man to divert his attention. Life was too sad now.
Princess Gong covered her lips and smiled, and said: "I have asked Mr. Zhou, and she said that she has given a discount to His Majesty and the Empress, and will wait until His Majesty's body recovers before leaving. She is expected to stay until the first month of next year. If His Majesty introduces
If the situation is not good yet, His Majesty may order you to come to Beijing to continue."
Prince Gong:……
He didn't want to enter the capital.
Even though he was being tormented by Zhou Man here, this was his palace after all. Although Princess Gong didn't care about him, he could still get something if he was careful.
But it will be different when he goes to Beijing. The Queen Mother will definitely send Aunt Shang to keep an eye on him, and then he will really not be able to eat at all.
Prince Gong asked, "How many pounds does she think I am healthy?"
"At least one hundred and sixty pounds."
Prince Gong stood up and left, "Then she will stay in Luozhou forever. I will sleep in the study tonight."
He didn't want to see the people who had persecuted him these days.
Princess Gong watched him leave and shook her head helplessly.
Prince Gong sat in his study and was meditating, but he was not thinking about losing weight, but about the fake medicine case. He asked someone to call the chief historian of the palace and asked: "When was the fake medicine sent to Luozhou?"
From the Medical Department?”
Chang Shi said: "We speculate that it was around October, when Zheng Gu happened to import a batch of medicinal materials. As far as we know, Zheng Gu sent the November batch of medicinal materials to other counties for disaster relief."
Prince Gong snorted coldly and said: "No wonder, he took action and could not take it back, so he could only make mistakes. At that time, my father had not returned to the court, and those fools in the court who withheld medicinal materials and grains were still alive and well."
The chief historian frowned and said: "Your Majesty, we should write a letter to impeach Luozhou on this matter. You are the vassal king. Even if you do not have the power to manage the local area, you still have the responsibility to inspect the local officials."
Prince Gong said: "Isn't the angel right here? Why bother seeking the far side instead of the near?"
Chang Shi asked bluntly, "When will the prince tell the angel about this?"
He paused and then added: "Tell Master Yu and Master Xia."
Zhou Man is also an angel, but she doesn't care about it. It's useless to tell her.
Prince Gong said perfunctorily: "If you wait a little longer, maybe they will find out on their own without us having to say anything."
Chang Shi was very unhappy.
The chief historian of Prince Gong's Mansion was carefully selected by the emperor, but the decision came from the Queen's suggestion, so the chosen chief historian had a somewhat upright temper. Although he was the chief historian of the palace, he still received a salary from the imperial court, so
I still tend to ask for orders for the people, and I can't stand this kind of behavior.
After Prince Gong learned about the situation, he coaxed Chang Shi away. Then he called his confidants and asked, "Have you found out? Where have the classic medicines from Luozhou Medical Department gone?"
"We found out. He has almost turned into an ice sculpture. He is under a snowdrift outside the city. No one should find him before the snow melts."
Prince Gong frowned when he heard this, "Who killed it? Forget it, whoever killed it, dig it out and lead people to find it. Zhou Man is too idle. Let him have something to do. Yu Huai and the others are too slow."
He wanted to rest for two days, but he was really tired.
Originally, I wanted to wait for Zhou Man to speak before letting Princess Gong offer a favor, but in the end...
