Seeing that Zhao Bohai had returned to Xuanyuan Dragon City safely, Bai Lidu, who could not enter the Demon City, was not interested in the low-level insect monsters around the main city, and he didn't want to expose himself too much in front of the players in the Demon City, so he went offline directly in a corner under the city wall, and then fell asleep deeply......

When Bai Lidu woke up again, it was already past 9 o'clock in the morning, and the doctor and nurse had already come to check the room, and he had nothing to do, so he logged in to the game again......

In the game, it has already been a day since the last time he went offline, and it is still a dark night scene, and the cooldown time for the impostor has arrived, Bai Lidu once again incarnated as a businessman Zhao Bohai, and entered the demon city openly.

"Lord Teleporter, the transaction of my trip has been completed, and I want to return to Xuanyuan Dragon City......" Bai Lidu said to the kobold teleporter next to the teleportation array after he walked to the teleportation array.

"I'm sorry, on the orders of General Niu, no alien race is allowed to use the teleportation array to leave this city!" The kobold teleporter said, waving his hand.

"What? Not allowed to leave? ”

Bai Lidu was also speculating in his heart, could it be that he rescued people from the mining area to cause this situation in front of him? Fortunately, he asked Zhao Bohai to teleport back immediately.

"Yes, it is said that yesterday in the east of the main city, a very fierce retro suddenly appeared, not only killed people when he saw them, but also killed some soldiers under General Niu, and General Niu is currently sending troops to track down the whereabouts of this person, so during this period, the teleportation array suspended the teleportation to you alien merchants, so as not to be taken advantage of by the retro to escape ......"

"Okay......"

In this regard, Bai Lidu didn't mind, anyway, Zhao Bohai's people had already been rescued, even if he went back a few days later, it would not have any impact, besides, the situation in front of him might not be able to trap him......

Noticing the current dark night scene, Bai Lidu couldn't help but think of his own subordinate waist card......

Leaving the teleportation array, Bai Lidu walked quickly to a no-man's corner next to the square, and after changing into the [Zhengbai Flag Deputy Capital Waist Card], he saw that the special effect of [Night Visit to the Old Summer Palace] could indeed be activated......

- The system prompts that you are currently in the main city of the hostile camp, and the special effect [Night Visit to the Old Summer Palace] can only be activated once per game day, is it activated immediately?

Be! Start now!

"Huh!" Suddenly, Bai Lidu disappeared in place......

- System prompt: You have entered the [Old Summer Palace] map.

Reappeared in the Old Summer Palace, Bai Lidu still appeared in the courtyard of the office where he left before, and to his surprise, the ninth princess was actually in the courtyard.

"Lidu, you are finally here, to tell you a good news, about our marriage, my imperial brother has relented, he promised me, tomorrow morning, as soon as he goes to court, he will discuss this matter with all the ministers, and then, you had better go to court together......"

"Good! No problem......"

"Come, while there is still time, I will teach you how to play chess......"

"Hmmm......"

Bai Lidu followed behind the ninth princess, and soon came to the second-floor attic where the last time the two played the guqin together - up and down the sky, and above the attic on the second floor, a boxy chess table had already been set up, Bai Lidu took a closer look, it was actually Go!

"Playing Go is also called a game, and in the legend, the first person to invent the art of gambling was Emperor Yao, one of the five emperors, and the first to carry forward Go was Emperor Yao's son Danzhu ......" The Nine Princesses took the lead in explaining after taking their seats.

"Hmm......" Bai Lidu originally knew nothing about Go, but when he heard the Ninth Princess say this, he could only nod.

"On the board of Go, there are a total of 19 horizontal and vertical lines, a total of 361 points, of which there are 9 star positions, and the most central star is called Tian Yuan"

"Hmm......" Bai Lidu continued to nod.

"Black and white each has 180 chess pieces, at the end of the game, the number of chess pieces left on the chessboard by both sides will judge the victory or defeat, below, let's learn while playing, you are a black man, you play first......"

"Good! Then I'll ...... first."

Bai Lidu immediately took out a chess piece from the small basket on the side and placed it on the chessboard at random, and in the game screen in front of him, there was also a close-up perspective of the chessboard in a top-down state......

Ten minutes later, Bai Lidu lost the first set happily......

"One more plate!"

Bai Lidu also refused to admit defeat, and after quickly putting away the chess pieces, he dropped the sunspots again......

As a result, after ten minutes, he lost the second set......

"Haha, come again!"

In this way, the two sat together and played more than a dozen games of Go in a row, and without exception, Bai Lidu lost all of them.

Thinking that the backstage brain of this game was upgraded on the basis of the Alpha Dog of that year, Bai Lidu naturally accepted this result calmly, thinking that back then, several top Go masters failed to win the Alpha Dog, and he was an amateur player who didn't know anything about Go, and it was obviously more unrealistic to win this more advanced game Brain.

Towards midnight, the sky in the game showed signs of brightening......

"Let's teach today's Go here first, it's not too early, it's almost time to go to the early court, you better prepare, get ready to go to the court," the ninth princess suddenly proposed.

"Huh? So where should I go to the court? Do you still need to rush to the Forbidden City Palace? ”

"You don't have to run so far, most of the upper dynasties are now in the Zhengda Guangming Hall in the garden......"

So, after the two of them left the upper and lower heavens, they rushed to the Zhengda Guangming Palace, and when they got there, they also happened to catch up with the ministers to go to the court.

"The emperor has arrived!"

With the eunuch's shout, the civil and military ministers in the palace also immediately knelt down and shouted:

"Greetings to the Holy One!"

Bai Lidu mixed in with the queue of military attachés, and before he could react, he had already knelt on the ground automatically.

Emperor Xianfeng soon appeared on the throne of the dragon chair directly in front of him.

"No rudeness!" When the kneeling ministers heard this, they dared to get up.

"Everyone, Aiqing, do you have something important to do?"

"Your Majesty, regarding the establishment of the Prime Minister's Yamen, since the establishment of the Emperor's approval, a direct department has been initially set up to connect with the United Kingdom, France, Oros, and the United States......

"Additional Coastal Defense Department? That's it! But what else? Xianfeng also replied happily.

Yi Yi continued: "Back to the emperor, yesterday the foreign secretary of the United States came to me, saying that several states in the United States have withdrawn from the federation one after another, and the situation is very serious, and it is likely that a civil war will break out in the future......

Bai Lidu, who was standing in the hall, heard this, and immediately got drunk!

According to the historical timeline he knows, this time should be February and March 1861, the only civil war in American history, the Civil War, is about to start, but no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty.

Xianfeng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was also very surprised when he heard this, and then he was very happy.

"Hahahaha! I can't imagine that after the Qing Dynasty defeated Britain and France, there would be such power, so ask them how much they plan to purchase? If the quantity is too small, forget it, as for the pricing...... Li Dubai, how much do you think these two weapons should be sold to the United States? ”

Bai Lidu actually didn't think about this problem, and when he heard Xianfeng call himself, he immediately came out of the ranks, and replied after a little thought:

"Back to the emperor, the minister believes that these two weapons are the unique technology of our Celestial Empire, once sold, I am afraid that they will be cracked and mastered by foreigners, and even a large number of imitations are possible, at that time, it will inevitably endanger our own safety, so for the other party's procurement requirements, our best response strategy is actually two words......"

"Oh? What two words? ”

"That's - don't sell!"
