When Xi Zhi finished explaining, Cao Cao felt quite strange.

Li Zhi could understand His Majesty's thoughts through a few words from outside.

Moreover, he can also influence His Majesty through matters outside the palace. In other words, does this mean to some extent that he is manipulating the king?

Thinking of this, Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi with a strange look.

"I'm hit...I'm hit...Brother is good at archery!"

At this moment, Guo Jia started shouting in a fuss, and without saying hello to anyone, he ran to the grass on the side.

Cao Cao and others turned around and asked Li Zhi

“It’s obvious why people shout so much when they are filial piety?”

Li Zhi shook his head and looked at the bow in his hand without saying anything.

Just when they were talking, Li Zhi noticed a pheasant in the distance, so he casually drew his bow and shot at it.

Unexpectedly, after the pheasant was frightened and flew up, it suddenly fell into the grass before it could fly far. I thought it must be shot.

Li Zhi felt very strange in his heart.

"Am I doing this unintentionally? I originally planned to leave empty-handed."

"Hahaha……"

At this moment, Guo Jia was holding a pheasant, laughing so hard that he turned forward and back, and walked towards them crookedly.

Xi Zhicai was a little curious and asked Guo Jiadao

"Why are you so happy, dear brother?"

Guo Jia was still laughing, speechless, and just handed the pheasant to Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai felt strange for a while. He turned over the dead pheasant and couldn't find anything funny about it, so he looked at Guo Jia with strange eyes.

At this time, Xun seemed to have discovered something. He took a look at the pheasant and laughed.

Cao Cao gave him a confused look, and Xun showed Cao Cao the fatal wound of the pheasant. Cao Cao also laughed after seeing it.

But it turned out that the pheasant was not shot by Li Zhi, but was frightened by Li Zhi's bow and arrow, and it crashed into a stone in a panic and died.

At this time, Li Zhi also discovered the cause of the pheasant's death. He threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, dumbfounded, put his hands behind his back, looked at the sky, and was speechless.

I thought to myself: "I've heard of waiting for the rabbit, what do I think? Shooting for the chicken?"

Thinking of this, Li Zhi also shook his head and sneered.

"My brother's archery skills are truly the best in the world. He can hunt prey without seeing blood. It's a strange news!"

Guo Jia laughed again when he said this.

Li Zhi looked at Guo Jia who was laughing wildly with no expression on his face.

I thought to myself: "You naughty kid, just wait for me. When you run tomorrow, you will have to do three more laps. I guess you won't be able to make fun of me by then."

Guo Jia's whole body was hairy as he was being watched, and his laughter gradually stopped and turned into awkward laughter.

"Hehehe... why does brother think so highly of Jia? But something is wrong?"

Li Zhi looked at him expressionlessly and nodded: "Nothing, very good. Brother Xian is very good."

After saying that, he ignored him.

Hearing what he said, Guo Jia felt even more uncomfortable. Through these days, he also knew Li Zhi's temper.

Li Zhi said that if nothing happened, it would be a big deal. He was afraid that he would be in trouble tomorrow. Guo Jia thought about it and figured it out.

Afraid of being punished in the future, Guo Jia immediately begged Li Zhi for mercy.

"Brother, brother, Jia is wrong! Jia should not laugh at his brother for his shortcomings."

"You know you're wrong?"

Li Zhi asked.

"I know, I know I'm wrong!"

"Then are you willing to be punished?"

"this……"

"Um……?!"

"Brother, no matter what the punishment is,"

"Go to the woods to collect a bundle of firewood, I will be of use"

"ah……?"

"Hurry up and go!!"

"oh oh……"

While they were hunting and talking, the sun gradually rose into the sky.

Li Zhi was also feeling a little hungry.

Let Guo Jia collect a bundle of firewood because he wanted to have a picnic in the wilderness.

Li Zhi hasn't had a picnic for a long time, and now that he thinks about it, he still misses it.

It's better to meet by chance than to invite him. He happened to be hunting today and caught a lot of prey, so he wanted to give it a try.

So he said to Cao Cao and others

"Have you ever been hungry or thirsty in your belly?

I'll be fetching you some firewood later, so how about I cook you a nice meal?"

"oh?"

Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi with surprise and asked curiously

"Does Xing Zhi know how to cook Bao?"

“Slightly dabbled”

At this time Xun spoke.

"Is it possible that he does not know what a gentleman says when he is far away from the cook?"

Hearing Xun say this, Li Zhi rolled his eyes and asked him

"Wen Ruo knows who the gentleman Mencius was talking about when he said this sentence?"

Xun Ruo frowned when he heard this and replied

"Of course we know that this is what Mencius said to King Xuan of Qi, and the gentleman he spoke of was King Xuan of Qi."

Li Zhi laughed and said: "That's right. The gentleman Mencius said at that time was the son of the king, but today it is the prince."

"This statement is to remind the king that he needs to implement benevolent governance in governing his people, not because of the dirt on the kitchen."

After saying that, he ignored him, but Xun became thoughtful after hearing what he said.

"Good, my virtuous brother, these words are of great kindness!"

When Cao Cao heard Li Zhi explaining Mencius' words, he put his palms in his hands and laughed and said

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to cook."

When Cao Cao and others saw that he really wanted to cook, it was obvious that he really knew how to cook. They were also very curious about Li Zhi's cooking skills.

Then Cao Cao said: "In this case, we are waiting for the wonderful art of Yi Ya."

Waiting for Guo Jia to carry back a bundle of dry firewood with a groan.

He asked Guo Jia to light the fire first, and then asked the servants who followed them to bring over some butter and condiments that he had brought when he came.

Li Zhi first went to the creek to wash and skin the deer that Cao Cao had hunted.

After washing and peeling, separate the venison steaks from the meat.

The venison was threaded with a fresh branch, and a knife was used to score the venison several times to enhance the flavor.

Rub some seasonings on the venison, and finally spread some butter.

As for the deer steak, I first asked the servant to set up a pot, boil water, and blanch it in hot water for later use.

This deer was their staple food for lunch today.

As for the two chickens, Li Zhi thought for a moment and then packed one of them up like venison, then put it on a fresh branch and planned to grill it like venison.

The other one he wanted to eat was...the beggar's chicken.

So they didn't even remove the feathers from the chicken, but opened the chicken's belly, took out the internal organs, and stuffed some spices and salt into it.

After the final sealing, wrap the chicken tightly with some mud and wrap it into a ball shape.

Then he dug a hole where Guo Jia made the fire, put the chicken in, and finally buried it with soil before moving the fire over.

Others were very curious when they saw him doing this.
