"Knock knock~" Wang Xuance reached out and knocked on the heavy wooden box, but there was no movement inside, and he also checked the chains and seals on the box at this time, and found that everything was intact, and there was no trace of opening, which made him feel relieved.

"Brother Xuan Ce, do you say that this monk inside is really alive?" Jiang Shiren was also standing in front of the sealed box at this time, and asked Wang Xuance with a puzzled face.

"It's possible, last time we buried this monk alive, but he was still alive after three days, since he can live underground for three days, it is possible to live in this box for a few months." Wang Xuance also stroked his beard at this time.

Before Wang Xuance defeated Alonashun after the capture of countless prisoners, among them there is a monk named Na Er Po Meng, this monk is highly valued by Alo Nashun, and even was named the national teacher, it is said that this monk is proficient in the art of immortality, and now he has lived for two hundred years.

Wang Xuance is a scholar, and he has always scoffed at the so-called art of immortality, and naturally he doesn't believe the words of this monk, but Po Mei told him that he can be buried alive in the ground without dying, but Wang Xuance really buried him alive, and only dug it up three days later, and found that Po Mei was really not dead, which made Wang Xuance also startled, and he didn't dare to underestimate Po Mei's ability, and even wanted to dedicate him to Li Shimin, after all, such an alien is the same as a rare beast, and it will definitely arouse His Majesty's interest.

However, Wang Xuance is still very cautious, he is worried that Po Mei will be fake when he is buried alive, so when he entered the border of the Tang Dynasty, he personally asked people to create a heavy wooden box, and then threw Po Mei inside, the whole box is airtight, and ordinary people will definitely be suffocated to death when they enter it, but since Po Mei is not afraid of being buried alive, it is estimated that he will not be afraid of this box.

It has been almost two months since Wang Xuance locked his mother-in-law in the box, and the box was sealed from the beginning, and the soldiers were ordered to take turns to take care of it, and it has never been opened, in fact, Wang Xuance is ready to go to Chang'an and then unseal the box, if he dies, just find a place to bury it, but if the mother-in-law does not die by then, he will be dedicated to His Majesty.

At this time, it was already the second half of the night, Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren looked at the box containing the mother-in-law, and then inspected the camp, the Tang army in the camp was borrowed by him from the states of southern Xinjiang, after all, he brought more than 10,000 prisoners of war into Beijing, and he definitely needed to be guarded, but although these defenders of southern Xinjiang listened to his dispatch on the surface, they were often lazy in private, which made Wang Xuance have no choice but to worry more about Jiang Shiren.

After the inspection, Wang Xuance returned to the camp to rest, and after breakfast the next day, they continued to march to Chang'an, originally they had so many people into Beijing, and the checkpoints along the road would not be released at all, but Wang Xuance had already reported the news of his return from the mission, and also got Li Shimin's consent, so he could bring so many people into Guanzhong.

A few days later, Wang Xuance and his party finally arrived in Jin'an Town, south of Chang'an, and the town formed by this post station became more and more prosperous, and they could reach Chang'an the next day after staying here for one night.

At dinner, Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren also discussed that after dinner, they would open the box where Po Mei was locked to see if Po Mei was still alive, after all, they would go to Chang'an tomorrow, of course, they also thought about offering the box directly to Li Shimin, but they were afraid that if Po Mei died, wouldn't they commit the crime of bullying the monarch at that time?

But at this moment, someone suddenly came to report, saying that someone outside asked to see, which made Wang Xuance also feel a little strange, after all, he was just a small envoy, although he made great achievements outside, but Tianzhu is too far away from the Tang Dynasty after all, it is estimated that it will not attract too many people's attention, at most, it is to make His Majesty happy, so as to give them some rewards, and they have just arrived in Jin'an Town, who knows the news of their return so quickly?

With the doubts in his heart, Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren also came to the door together, only to see a very personable middle-aged man standing there, although he was smiling, but there was a majesty of a superior on his body, and at the same time, Wang Xuance felt that the other party was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen each other.

"I don't know what to call your guests, what is the matter with coming to see Wang?" Wang Xuance saw that the other party had an extraordinary bearing, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so he hurriedly took the initiative to step forward and salute.

"In Xia Li Xiu, I heard that the envoy of the king destroyed a country by himself on this trip, and raised the prestige of my Tang Dynasty in Tianzhu, so I specially came to see it." This middle-aged man is Li Xiu, and I saw that he also said with a smile at this time.

"Li Xiu?" Wang Xuance didn't react at first, but then his eyes widened, he finally remembered that he had seen Li Xiu a few times from afar, of course, the other party must not have paid attention to himself, no wonder he felt familiar, it turned out that the person in front of him was the famous Yan Guogong.

Thinking of the above, Wang Xuance also hurriedly saluted again: "The lower officials didn't know that Yan Guogong had arrived, and he didn't go out to greet him, and he hoped that the Duke of Yan would forgive his sins!" ”

Jiang Shiren was also startled when he heard Wang Xuance call the middle-aged man in front of him Yan Guogong, and hurriedly followed the salute, but Li Xiu said with a smile at this time: "Envoy Wang doesn't have to be polite, the person next to you must be the deputy envoy Jiang Shiren Jiang Lieutenant, right?" ”

"The last general...... The last general, Jiang Shiren, see Guogong! Jiang Shiren didn't expect that the Duke of Yan in front of him also knew his name, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute alone, and his face turned red with excitement, after all, he also remembered the name of this Duke of Yan, it is said that in the first battle to destroy the Turks, this Duke of the Kingdom also made great efforts.

"Captain Jiang doesn't need to be polite, your majesty will definitely reward you for your great achievements in this trip, but I think you can go to the military academy to study for a few years, and you will have a greater future in the future!" Li Xiu also smiled at this time, he remembered that Jiang Shiren in history had no other merits that could be written except for assisting Wang Xuance to destroy Tianzhu, and it was estimated that it was also because of his limited talent, but if he could go to the military academy to study for a few years, he would definitely have greater development, at least stronger than him in the original history.

"Thank you, Brother Xuan Ce also persuaded me to go to the military academy, but I was worried that the military academy was too strict, and I was afraid that it would not accept me." Jiang Shiren heard that even Li Xiu said the same, and he was determined to go to the military academy at the moment, but he was worried about whether he could go in.

"Haha~, you have made a contribution to destroying the country with the king's envoys, and it is easy to enter the military academy, I will recommend it to you when the time comes!" Li Xiu also laughed when he heard this.

Hearing Li Xiu's words, Jiang Shiren was naturally grateful, but Wang Xuance next to him was full of doubts at this time, because he couldn't understand why with Li Xiu's identity, he suddenly came to Anyi to see such a small envoy as him?
