"What is this?" Li Yu glanced down at the thing in his hand, and raised his head after a while, but his eyes were full of surprise.

The piece of paper in Li Yu's hand turned out to be a ticket for gambling.

This piece of paper is written which side wins, you only need to mark a line on it, it is considered to be selected, and then write your name, it can be sent to the gambling house.

There is nothing unusual about this, what surprised Li Yu the most was that what was written on this ticket turned out to be a competition between the two gangs of the Fenshui Gang and the Luoshui Gang.

The two gangs competed in kung fu on the water, with a total of three, one was dragon boating, one was swimming and holding breath, and the last one turned out to be a water battle.

The competition between the two gangs can be used as a gambling event, which is a bit of a great surprise to Li Yu, and the scale of their competition is extremely grand, as if they are not afraid of the official army at all.

"When are they playing?" Li Yu's eyes swept over a man and a woman, and asked indifferently.

"Ahem, ...... Back to His Royal Highness Liu, on the tenth day of the sixth month, they competed in two aspects. The man was emboldened, and then he answered.

"Oh? That's less than half a month. Li Yu glanced down at the ticket in his hand again, and his expression was a little strange.

Seeing that Li Yu didn't mean to punish, the man became a little bolder, leaned closer, and whispered to Li Yu, "Your Highness Six, the two of them have been competing like this for several years, and almost every time the water division gang wins, I think it must still be this year." ”

"I said it must be the Luoshui Gang that wins, although they lose every year, but this year they have a very powerful military advisor, I heard that they are very strategic." The woman protested again, looking like if you don't believe me and you'll lose.

Li Yu smiled slightly, didn't say anything, just handed the ticket back to the man, and then turned around and spoke lightly.

"Nine out of ten bets are lost, it's best not to bet, but if you have to bet, you might as well place your own bets, so that even if someone loses, someone will win, and the same bet should ensure that you don't lose at least."

When Li Yu finished the last sentence, his figure had already walked towards the front yard hall.

The front yard hall is very deserted at the moment, because Lu Jiang was beaten with dozens of military sticks yesterday, and now he is still lying on the bed and can't get off the ground, after all, he is old, and he is not as fast as when he was young.

When Li Yu came to the hall, Tang Hong happened to come over, and when he saw Li Yu coming, he couldn't help but step forward to say goodbye.

Li Yu smiled and nodded, then grabbed Tang Hong, walked aside, and told him what he knew just now, and then told Tang Hong to go down to investigate the competition between the Fenshui Gang and the Luoshui Gang.

Tang Hong took the order, and Li Yu turned around to visit Lu Jiang.

Lu Jiang was beaten yesterday, originally supported by a brave force, but now that he is in a peaceful mood, not to mention the pain, and the inconvenience caused by old age makes him scold his mother on the bed.

Li Yu entered the house, saw Lu Jiang's appearance, and heard him scolding his mother, he couldn't help laughing, sat on the edge of the bed, and then spoke.

"Lu Shuai was really free and easy yesterday, but today he looks a lot haggard."

"Sixth Highness, don't make fun of me, although my body is fine, it is not comparable to when I was young." Lu Jiang had a black line on his face and smiled bitterly.

"Well, I won't make fun of you anymore, I just heard that the Water Fenshui Gang and the Luoshui Gang hold competitions every year, do you know about this?"

"Zhilu Dao, and the scale of their competition is still very large."

"Oh? It seems that even you know about the Tao should be very concerned. Li Yu pondered for a moment and stared at Lu Jiang to speak.

"It's a big scale, and I went to see it once, and it's really pretty good." Lu Jiang didn't know why Li Yu brought up this matter, he just vaguely felt that Li Yu had something to say.

"In this case, we can take this opportunity to digest some of these two gangs and make the waters of the Yangtze River smoother." Li Yu smiled indifferently and said his thoughts.

"The Dividing Water Gang and the Luoshui Gang are indeed very powerful on the Yangtze River, they are quite different from the regimental training, but because of their great strength, even the official army cannot be directly exterminated." Lu Jiang pondered for a moment, and then spoke, seeing that Li Yu didn't say anything, he continued: "Actually, I have the idea of recruiting them, but they don't buy it, and they often go against the officials and soldiers, which is a headache for me. ”

"Wang Zhongxiao sent me a letter and asked us for help, hoping that we could unite with them and exterminate the Water Dividing Gang." Li Yu was blunt and told the story of the letter he received last night.

Lu Jiang's eyes froze, and he said for a long time: "This matter is indeed a good thing, but is it appropriate?" ”

"I think I can consider it, and in terms of team training, I also want to take it under my command, this is a good opportunity." Li Yu smiled and spoke, and he probably told Lu Jiang Zhidao about his thoughts.

Lu Jiang groaned, with his military talent, he was very much in favor of what Li Yu said, but although he agreed, there were also hidden worries in it.

"Can we do this and cause the people to be resentful, and there will be a bad situation?"

"I don't think so, and I think that when they compete, it is a good opportunity for us to make the people of the Water Divide Gang show their true colors, and we can also take the opportunity to win over the Luoshui Gang and isolate the Water Dividing Gang, so as to finally eliminate the Water Dividing Gang, or directly take them under their command."

"What does the Sixth Highness mean, we fish in troubled waters, divide their power, and under the resistance of the three of them, achieve our goal of recruiting the most rear?" Lu Jiang had fully understood Li Yu's deployment.

"I do have this idea, but I still need to further understand this matter, you can recuperate in the government office, I will go out for a few days, and go to the riverside to visit." Li Yu had already stood up at this moment and spoke to Lu Jiang lightly.

"Is His Highness the Sixth going for a private visit?" Lu Jiang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard what Li Yu said.

A prince wants to go on a private visit, if he goes to the city to go around, but he wants to go to the riverside, and if he doesn't get it right, he will have a dispute with those gangs or group training, once Li Yu has three longs and two shorts, he can't afford to pay this responsibility.

"It's a private visit, I just checked the folk customs, and I've always heard that the local folk customs are strong, but I always feel that the more fierce they are, maybe it will be of great help to us to defend the land and the country in the future, so I have to take a trip."

"But, if His Royal Highness is in danger here, the old minister will not escape the death penalty." Lu Jiang hurriedly spoke up, he didn't say that he wouldn't let Li Yu go directly, but persuaded Li Yu with his own safety.

"It's okay, with Tang Hong and Hao Cheng as my bodyguards, I don't think there will be any problems." Li Yu smiled slightly, stopped Lu Jiang who was blocking him, and then strode out of the city, speaking again as he walked.

"Don't spread this matter for the time being, it won't be spread out, and our strategy of fishing in troubled waters will be useless."
