"Dongdongdongdongdong~" Wang Xuance reached out and knocked on the thick wooden box, but there was no movement inside. At this time, he also checked the iron chains and seals on the box and found that everything was intact and there was no sign of opening it, which made him feel relieved.

"Brother Xuan Ce, do you think the monk inside is really alive?" Jiang Shiren also stood in front of the sealed box at this time, and asked Wang Xuan Ce with confusion on his face.

"It's possible that we buried this monk alive last time, but he was dug out three days later and he was still alive. Since he could live underground for three days, it's possible to live in this box for a few months." Wang Xuance also spoke with his beard at this time.

Before, Wang Xuance captured countless prisoners after defeating Aronasun. Among them, there was a monk named Naer Sapomi. This monk was highly valued by Aronasun and was even named the national teacher. It is said that this monk was proficient in the art of immortality and has now lived for two hundred years.

Wang Xuance is a scholar. He always sneered at the so-called art of immortality, and naturally he didn't believe the words of this monk Pomei. However, Pomei told him that he could be buried alive in the ground without dying. As a result, Wang Xuance actually buried him alive and was dug three days later. He found that Pomei was indeed not dead, which scared Wang Xuance. He did not dare to underestimate Pomei's ability, and even wanted to present him to Li Shimin. After all, such an alien is like a rare beast, which will definitely arouse the interest of His Majesty.

However, Wang Xuance was still very cautious. He was worried that Pomei would be faked when he was buried alive, so when he entered the border of the Tang Dynasty, he personally created a thick wooden box and threw Pomei into it. The whole box was not breathable. Ordinary people would definitely be suffocated to death when they entered it. However, since Pomei was not afraid of burying it alive, he probably wouldn't be afraid of this box either.

It has been almost two months since Wang Xuance locked Pomei in the box, and the box was sealed from the beginning, and ordered the soldiers to take turns to take care of it, but it has never been opened. In fact, Wang Xuance was preparing to unseal the box when he went to Chang'an. It would be fine if he died, just find a place to bury it. But if Pomei could not die at that time, he would present him to His Majesty.

It was already late at night. After Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren saw the box containing their mama, they patrolled the camp. He borrowed the Tang army in the camp from various states in southern Xinjiang. After all, he brought more than 10,000 prisoners of war into the capital and must have to be taken care of. However, although these defenders in southern Xinjiang listened to his orders on the surface, they often took laziness in private, which made Wang Xuance unable to do anything and could only worry more with Jiang Shiren.

After the inspection, Wang Xuance returned to the camp to rest. After breakfast the next day, they continued to head towards Chang'an. Originally, so many of them came to Beijing, the checkpoints along the way would not be released at all. However, Wang Xuance had already reported the news of his return from the mission, and also obtained the consent of Li Shimin, so he brought so many people into Guanzhong.

A few days later, Wang Xuance and his group finally arrived in Jin'an Town, south of Chang'an City. The town formed by this inn became more and more prosperous. After staying here for one night, they could arrive in Chang'an the next day.

During dinner, Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren also discussed that after dinner, they opened the box that was locked in Pomei to see if Pomei was still alive. After all, they would be in Chang'an tomorrow. Of course, they also thought of presenting the box directly to Li Shimin, but they were afraid that if Pomei died, wouldn't they commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?

But at this moment, someone suddenly came to report that someone was asking for a meeting outside, which made Wang Xuance feel a little strange. After all, he was just a small envoy. Although he made great contributions outside, Tianzhu was too far from the Tang Dynasty and probably wouldn't attract too many people's attention. At most, it would just make His Majesty happy and give them some rewards. Moreover, they had just arrived in Jin'an Town. Who knew the news of their return so quickly?

With doubts in his heart, Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren also came out of the door, but they saw a very graceful middle-aged man standing there. Although he had a smile on his face, he had the majesty of a superior. At the same time, Wang Xuance felt that the other party looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"I don't know what the distinguished guest is called, so what's wrong with seeing Wang?" Seeing the other party's extraordinary demeanor, Wang Xuance did not dare to neglect at the moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

"I'm here at Li Xiu, and I heard that the king's envoy destroyed a country on his trip and praised the power of our Tang Dynasty in India, so I came to see him." The middle-aged man was Li Xiu, and he smiled and said.

"Li Xiu?" Wang Xuance hadn't reacted at first, but then he widened his eyes. He finally remembered that he had seen Li Xiu several times from afar. Of course, the other party must have not paid attention to him. No wonder he felt familiar. It turned out that the person in front of him was the famous Duke of Yan.

Thinking of the above, Wang Xuance also hurriedly saluted again and said, "I don't know that Duke Yan has arrived and has never gone out to greet him. I hope Duke will forgive me!"

When Jiang Shiren heard Wang Xuance call the middle-aged man in front of him the Duke of Yan, he was shocked and hurriedly followed him to salute. However, Li Xiu smiled and said with a smile: "Encourt Wang, don't be polite. The person next to you must be the deputy envoy Jiang Shiren, right?"

"The last general...the last general Jiang Shiren met with the Duke of the Kingdom!" Jiang Shiren did not expect that the Duke of Yan in front of him knew his name, and immediately hurried forward alone to salute, and his face turned red with excitement. After all, he also remembered the name of the Duke of Yan. It is said that in the battle to destroy the Turks, the Duke of the Kingdom of Yan also made great efforts.

"Person Jiang doesn't have to be too polite. Your Majesty will definitely reward you with great contributions during this trip. But I think you can study in the military academy for a few years, so that you will have a greater future in the future!" Li Xiu also said with a smile at this time. He remembered that in history, Jiang Shiren, in addition to assisting Wang Xuance in destroying Tianzhu, had no other achievements that could be written. It is probably because of his talent. But if he could study in the military academy for a few years, he would definitely have greater development, at least better than him in history.

"Thank you, my husband. Brother Xuan Ce also advised me to go to the military academy, but I was worried that the military academy was too strict and I might not accept me." When Jiang Shiren heard Li Xiu say so, he immediately strengthened his intention to go to the military academy, but he was worried that he could enter.

"Haha~, you have made great contributions to destroying the country with the envoy of the king. It is easy to enter the military academy. At worst, I will recommend it to you when the time comes!" Li Xiu laughed and said when he heard this.
