After a very pleasant meal, Qi Si felt very regretful when it was over.Most dieters have had this experience. They clearly vowed to control their appetite, but when they are really hungry, they are easy to indulge when they see delicious food.

Qi Si took Li Lanshang and went home full of regrets. After a short rest, he went to the small school for training, trying to burn off the calories from the big meal at noon.One of the benefits from modern times is that Qi Si knows which movements can burn fat quickly.This body has very good physical strength, even high-intensity exercise can handle it with ease. Qi Si has done all the high-fat-burning exercises he can think of several times, such as burpees and push-ups, he can practice as hard as he can.

Li Lanshang silently observed his movements from the sidelines of the school, and asked the meaning of his movements from time to time.Qi Si didn't keep his secrets, and solved his doubts one by one.

After eating a big meal at noon, the kitchen only prepared one fish for dinner.

"What kind of fish does the general want to eat? Braised or steamed?" the maid asked.

Qi Si said, "Steam."

The maid took the order and left.

Qi Si ate a big fish at night, but he exercised too much, and one fish was not enough for him to consume, so he woke up hungry in the middle of the night.After finally surviving until the next day, he felt that it should not be too much, so he asked the kitchen to cook three eggs and a small fish for breakfast, and chicken and fish for lunch and dinner.

It was still the same the next day.

Li Lanshang couldn't sit still, and when he was eating steamed fish again, he asked, "Why does the general treat himself so badly? People have to eat whole grains to gain strength. What's the matter if the general doesn't eat?"

Qi Si said while eating: "I'm here to lose weight."

Li Lanshang smiled, "Other people don't eat meat to lose weight, the general is good, he eats fish and meat every day."

"You don't understand." Qi Si shook his head and explained, "This is called a ketogenic diet. Do you know the energy of our body? Energy... er, power comes from sugar and fat in the blood. Sugar and fat are two substances ..."

Looking at the dazed Li Lanshang, Qi Si waved his hands and said, "I can't explain it clearly. Anyway, it's good that you know that you have these two things. Our strength comes from these two things in our body. If we often eat rice and noodles, Then consume sugar for energy, if you change to eating all meat, then you will consume fat, and you can lose weight by consuming fat..."

Li Lanshang looked indifferent: "I don't understand."

"Ha, forget it if you don't understand." Qi Si said with a smile, "Eating meat for two days is to let the body adapt to consume fat for energy. From tomorrow onwards, vegetables and fruits will be added. Don't worry, you won't starve to death if you don't eat rice. .”

The ancient people used rice and flour as their main food, and the long-term farming society made the ancients develop the inherent idea of ​​"eating three meals a day". Qi Si's former grandma had to force Qi Si to eat a bowl of rice before she could leave the table. , Eating vegetables is absolutely not enough, only rice is called a complete meal.

He was not surprised that Li Lanshang would have such a reaction.

"Where did you hear these fallacies, General?" Li Lanshang asked with raised eyebrows.

"I dreamed about it, the secret recipe handed down from my ancestors." Qi Si smiled happily, and after eating, he strolled around in the yard, and then went to the school field for training.

After a few days like this, Qi Si has slowly adapted to the current diet, but because of his excessive consumption, he eats a lot of food every meal, so he won't let himself go hungry.The people in the general's mansion who witnessed his weight loss process from beginning to end were shocked to find that Qi Si had lost a circle of weight visible to the naked eye.

If you get along with a person day and night, it is difficult to tell whether that person has become fat or thin. If you can see it, it must be a relatively large change to attract attention.

Li Lanshang was also very surprised. Qi Si lost a lot of weight in just ten days, which is really unbelievable.

Qi Si found that his clothes had become loose and baggy. Knowing that the weight loss was effective, he was very excited and worked harder.The only bad thing is that he always likes diarrhea... This is caused by excessive exercise and eating too many fruits and vegetables.

He was not idle when he was losing weight. He sent people to Bianjing to find out where there was a shop selling liquor, and if there was a girl surnamed Xiao... Occasionally, when he was free, he would go out and look around to see if he could Encounter again.

He feels very happy now.

Qi Si made great contributions at the border and returned to Beijing to receive a title. According to common sense, the imperial court would assign him an official position, but now he only has a loose official of General Wuwei, who has no real power and no responsibility. Very free.

The reason for this involves the official culture of the imperial court. According to the usual practice, the Ministry of Officials will assign one official and one half post to those who have done meritorious service at the border and return to Beijing. However, it is difficult to say how to divide the officials.The imperial court emphasizes civility over martial arts, and there have been many nobles and big families in the past dynasties. The relationship is intricate and the forces are mixed and contending. All of them want to continue to climb, and they are not willing to abandon what they have.Moreover, there was no retirement system in ancient times. Once an official became an official, unless he was transferred, died, or was convicted, one radish and one hole could occupy the sky and land. Newcomers who want to squeeze in can only wait slowly.

Common people want to be officials, and the children and relatives of wealthy and noble families also want to be officials. Cold bench.

Qi Si is a typical example of sitting on the bench, even if he killed the second prince of Beirong, so what, so what if he is famous in the northwest, no one in the capital speaks, and when he returns to Beijing, he will be lying on his stomach like a tiger, like a dragon Putting it on, in front of the honorable children all over the street, he is a fart.

With military exploits, you have inherited the title, you have also been given a lot of gold and silver, and you have been appointed as a loose official of a mighty general. On the surface, no one can find fault, even if you get a debate before the imperial court, you will be impeccable.

Qi Si didn't know if his former body would be unfair, he only knew that he was very satisfied now.The so-called Sanguan is a kind of official position with no real power and only a name in the Dayu Dynasty. They can receive a corresponding level of salary and enjoy the treatment of being an official when they go out. The only difference is that they do not take positions, do nothing, and have no real power. It is used to raise some useless noble children, and it is also used to reward courtiers.

If you have the intention to climb the ladder or make great achievements, you will definitely be dissatisfied with just being a Sanguan. However, Qi Si has no intention of glorifying the lintel, and just wants to be a salted fish to live a comfortable life, so he thinks that Sanguan is so good. .

On this day, Qi Si was still training in the school grounds, when someone from his servants suddenly reported that Mr. Gao from the Ministry of Punishment had arrived.

"The Ministry of Punishment?" Qi Si was very surprised, "What do the people from the Ministry of Punishment want me to do?"

The criminal department is just like a modern police station. What good can the police do if they come to your door?

Qi Si's heart pounded, and he carefully thought about his words and deeds since time travel, as if he had done nothing wrong.

Li Lanshang also frowned, "I don't know why the Ministry of Punishment is looking for the general, I can only go to meet that Mr. Gao."

The two put the sword back on the shelf and went to the front hall together.

The front hall of the General’s Mansion is more grand, with a picture scroll of galloping horses hanging on the front wall, and a picture of "Defense the Home and the Country" is hung on the top. Si Ta's father, as for the painting, it was also a reward from the emperor, it was written by Zhang Youzhi, a master of the previous generation, and it can sell for a lot of money.

The incense table enshrines the ranking of the grandfather, who was the hero who followed the first emperor to open up the territory and establish the Dayu Dynasty. Tablets are enshrined in the ancestral hall.In the next row down is a treasured sword with a strange shape. It is a spoil of war for a certain Beirong general.

The chairs and side tables in the front hall are all rewards for military achievements. The wolf fur on the top chair is said to be the favorite of a chief of the Beirong tribe.

In short, the objects placed in the main hall are of extraordinary origin and are very grand, showing the illustrious military exploits and magnificence of the General's Mansion.

On weekdays, Qi Si didn't go to the main hall very often, for fear of accidentally bumping into and damaging the baby.

As soon as he walked in, he saw a middle-aged man in dark blue clothes sitting on the grand master's chair on the left, looking around while drinking tea.

It seems that this is Mr. Gao from the Ministry of Punishment.

Unable to figure out where he came from, Qi Si called out, "Lord Gao."

Hearing the shout, the middle-aged man quickly put the teacup on the small table, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Don't dare to act, dare not act, the subordinate official hastily visited, disturbing the general's leisure."

Qi Si glanced at Li Lanshang silently. Li Lanshang knew that he didn't remember anything, so he said behind him: "It's Gao Xiang from the Ministry of Punishment. Officials are from the fifth rank. The general's mighty generals are from the fourth rank. Generals don't need to be courteous."

Qi Si then laughed and said, "Master Gao, you are welcome."

The tall man didn't look like he was looking for trouble.
