In addition to walking the dog, under the pressure of daily heavy government affairs, Guo Peng did not give up exercising.

He has always believed that building muscle is an important way to maintain good health.

After becoming emperor, he further realized that his health was related to the stability of the entire empire and the advancement of his overall plan, and he could not joke with his body.

Therefore, when he has time, he will carry out systematic aerobic and muscle training, and if he doesn't have time, he will take advantage of the interval between official duties to do a five-bird play and move his stiff body.

He asked the eunuchs of the weaving prison to polish the barbell for him with stones, and created professional exercise tools such as parallel bars and horizontal bars for him, and also made a woven cushion to facilitate him to do planks and leg lifts, so that he could practice the muscles of the whole body and not let his physical fitness decline.

After all, he is a Bensi person, and in this era, he can no longer be regarded as young, and he is even middle-aged and elderly.

Years ago, Guo Jin accompanied Cai Wan to find out that she was pregnant, and now Cai Wan's belly has grown, Cao Lan is very happy, and she accompanies Cai Wan to raise the fetus every day, and all kinds of delicious food are eaten by Cai Wan.

Although Guo Peng is not yet forty, he is about to become a grandfather, and he can't look at himself with the eyes of a young man.

It should be practiced, otherwise the foundation laid down under Lu Zhi in the early years will be defeated.

Guo Peng has always paid great attention to fitness, has a high degree of self-discipline in his daily life, and pays attention to a high-protein diet in his daily diet.

Chicken, especially chicken breast, is his main ingredient.

Even in order to facilitate the emperor to eat chicken, Shang Shanjian also specially selected a remote corner of the palace to raise chickens.

In fact, the eunuchs and cooks in charge of cooking in the Shangshan Prison also thought it was very strange, they didn't understand why His Majesty the Emperor always liked to eat hard and woody chicken breasts?

Don't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, don't use the treatment of the emperor, and eat that kind of unpalatable meat?

And it is specially required to boil, cut into small pieces of diced chicken and put it in to cook, sprinkle some salt, add some vegetables by the way, or pound the chicken breast, and then knead it with egg white, and then sprinkle some salt to steam.

This bland and tasteless chicken breast is actually the most food that the emperor eats every day, and he can eat a lot of these chicken breasts in a day, and the emperor doesn't even eat much grain, only drinks a bowl of porridge in the morning.

If you want to talk about other snacks, at most you will eat some tonic desserts boiled by the queen, or eat eggs, the emperor only eats egg whites, not egg yolks, and asks people to make egg yolks into porridge to replenish the bodies of the women and children in the harem.

The emperor basically did not drink alcohol, and rarely ate the stir-fried dishes carefully cooked by the old firehead.

That is, when the festival is held, or when everyone celebrates their birthday, the emperor will eat some stir-fried vegetables and some rice, and more often, the emperor will eat boiled chicken breast and egg white as rice, and sometimes he will eat beef.

Then it's about eating fruit.

The emperor's daily diet was indispensable for seasonal fruits, such as pears, grapes, peaches, plums, and citrus fruits specially brought from Yangzhou.

It's cold in winter and there are no seasonal fruits, so that's okay, there are hot springs in Luoyang.

In the early years, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu named Luoyang Hot Spring Guangchengze, set up Guangchengyuan as a royal garden, and left Luoyang from time to time to bathe in the hot springs.

Now Emperor Guo is the same, but in addition to bathing, Emperor Guo will also let people open up land around to plant vegetables and fruits, which will be used in the palace in winter, and those vegetables and fruits can also grow in winter, but there are not many of them.

So the emperor continued to melon and fruit all year round.

In addition to melons and fruits, the emperor also liked to eat walnuts.

This is something that came from the Western Regions, a fruit with a hard shell but a crispy taste, because the emperor liked to eat it, and it also attracted many people, so it was widely cultivated.

In addition to eating and drinking very different from ordinary people, the emperor also liked to do some strange actions.

Sometimes the eunuchs watched the emperor squat down and stand up with something like a stone lock made of stone, and then squatted down and stood up again, and so on more than a hundred times.

Then I saw the emperor lying on a cushion in a single robe, constantly raising his legs, five or six hundred at a time, until he was out of breath.

Or the emperor propped himself on the cushion in a strange posture, and asked the eunuch Su Yuan to take a few sticks of incense to time the emperor, also until he was out of breath.

Then on those iron rods, the emperor will also do some strange movements, such as grabbing the iron rods with both hands and pulling his body up vigorously, as if the solid pimples on his body are about to burst.

Su Yuan counted, and the emperor pulled up fifty at most at a time.

In addition to these strange forging movements, Su Yuan also saw that the emperor would find time to practice swordsmanship and spears, it is said that the emperor was also a fierce general who charged into battle in his early years, and when he fought against Dong Zhuo, he took the lead and charged ahead, and the souls of those fierce Xiliang people who fought were scattered, and they were famous.

In this way, Su Yuan could clearly see that the emperor's body was getting more and more straight, his body was getting stronger and stronger, and he walked like a fly, his voice was like a bell, and he was full of energy.

It looks like it's a long life.

Anyway, they don't know how the emperor came up with the idea of using these methods to forge his body, but as long as the emperor is in good health, the eunuchs are very happy.

Guo Peng not only demanded himself so strictly, but also demanded that Guo Jin should basically do what he would do after he ascended the throne and became the emperor.

Guo Jin was sent to Pingyin County, north of Luoyang, to do the county order, and after work, he would also be guided by Guo Peng, requiring him to learn to exercise, eat a high-protein diet, prohibit eating big oil and meat, and basically not allow him to drink, which made Guo Jin very hard, but he didn't dare not do it.

Guo Jin has worked so hard, and the friends around him who work with him are not immune.

Although they are not required to be as delicious as Guo Jin, they can't eat and play, but seeing that the boss does so much exercise every day, in order to show the intimacy between themselves and the boss, they will naturally follow suit.

So a group of muscular hunks gradually took shape in the county office.

It is conceivable that as long as Guo Peng is alive, he will not give up the strict requirements for Guo Jin.

In addition to daily sports, the care for his wives and concubines is also not less, although there is a bit of a performance component, but the rain and dew are very important for him and for the harmony of the harem.

At this stage, the family forces represented by the concubines are all important forces that he needs to unite, and he must take a certain amount of time to appease his wives and concubines, at least not make them feel too lonely, as their husbands, he must do something.

So sometimes, he still really feels tired.

At noon on December 30, Guo Peng held a big banquet in the Fengtian Palace, inviting all the officials to the Fengtian Temple for dinner, and the scene was unprecedentedly grand.

And that night, Guo Peng held a family banquet in Fengtian Palace, and invited the entire Guo clan and his wife and concubine family.

Tian's, Xiahou's, Cao's, Cai's, Qiao's and other major families.

So Tian Feng, Guo Jia, Guo Hong and others ate another meal in Fengtian Palace, eating from noon to night, without wasting at all, and taking advantage of it.

Guo Peng is still at this time

After this dinner, it was a pleasant five-day vacation.

The emperor also needs to take a vacation.

In the past five days, Guo Peng had a rare moment of relaxation, and when it was snowing heavily in Luoyang, Guo Peng took his wife and children to the hot spring palace Guangchengyuan to enjoy the snow and soak in the hot springs.

Because he knew that Guo Peng liked to bathe in the hot springs, the officials of the Ministry of Industry deliberately renovated Guangchengyuan in order to please Guo Peng.

They built a beautiful hot spring palace around the hot springs, surrounded a pool of the most beautiful and comfortable hot springs, and built a royal palace for Guo to enjoy.

Guo likes to soak his whole body in the hot spring water and enjoy the feeling of relaxation, which will make him feel relaxed that he will never feel on weekdays.

Usually a hundred battles a day, tired and panicked, dreams are intrigued, only lying in the hot springs, can you feel truly relaxed.

At the same time, there are trays floating on the water, and there are various drinks and delicate side dishes that Guo likes but rarely eats.

Freshly squeezed juice with ice cubes, flavored drinks made with honey, and sweet rice wine brewed.

A few side dishes of chicken and lamb, fish or seafood rushed from the sea, one is counted, and it is full of flavor.
