The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 560 Gongsuntian's Choice (fourth update)
I saw the veiled person reaching out to take off his veil.Kneeling directly in front of Li Tai.

This can't help but make everyone present feel puzzled.He even suspected that there was a great injustice on this person.He came to Li Tai to complain about his grievances.

But at this time, Rwanda, who was standing aside, said in surprise: "Aren't you Gongsun Tian? Why did you come to see His Highness King Yan dressed up like this?"

Everyone never expected that this mysterious person was actually Gongsun Tian, ​​the eldest son of the Gongsun family.Even Li Tai felt unexpected.

"Your Highness King Yan, Caomin is Gongsun Tian, ​​the son of Gongsun Bonian. I came to see His Highness Yan today because I have something to tell you." Gongsun Tian and Li Tai said.

"Mr. Gongsun, please get up quickly. If you have anything to say, stand up and talk." Li Tai said politely to Gongsuntian.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Yan, Caomin came to see His Highness Yan this time. It is for the future of the Gongsun family, and I hope His Highness Yan can help Caomin." Gongsun Tian said to Li Tai.

"This king implements the new policy, as long as your Gongsun family supports this king. How can I embarrass your Gongsun family?" Li Tai said to Gongsun Tian.

"To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness Yan, now my father has made a decision. Lead the Gongsun family to defect to King Khitan, who is the brother-in-law of Caomin."

"Unfortunately, the grass people's persuasive persuasion was fruitless, so I came to beg His Highness Yan Wang in desperation. I hope His Highness Yan can stop my father from doing stupid things." Gongsuntian knelt down on the ground again and said to Li Tai.

Li Tai did not expect that Gongsun Bonian finally made this decision.But this made Li Tai very puzzled, why did Gongsun Bonian make such a decision.

"What this king confiscated was only the land of your Gongsun family, and it was not confiscated for no reason. But your father led the Gongsun family to flee to Khitan, and the land also cannot be taken away. It will not be my king's land by then."

"I don't know why your father made this decision. It seems that it is not good for your Gongsun family." Li Tai asked puzzled.

"His Royal Highness King Yan must know that my Gongsun family was inherited from the Liaodong King Gongsun Du during the Three Kingdoms period. Therefore, my Gongsun family has a private army that has been passed down from generation to generation."

"His Royal Highness King Yan's new certificate clearly stipulates that no one in the country of Yan is allowed to support a private army in any form. Therefore, the private army of the Gongsun family is also facing disbandment."

"But father didn't want to see this scene, so he made this stupid decision." Gongsuntian said to Li Tai.

Li Tai has a lot of research on the history of the Three Kingdoms, but he has never heard of Gongsun Du's secret army.

So Li Tai said to Gongsun Tian: "Tell me about this private army of your Gongsun family in detail."

"Ancestor Gongsundu once formed a guard of 3000 people. Because the Liaodong area is often covered with heavy snow in winter, the [-] guards all wore white clothes, so they were named Snow Fox Army."

"Later, the Snow Fox Army has been passed down from generation to generation, and has been protecting the foundation of the Gongsun family. Now this Snow Fox Army has been passed down to my father." Gongsun Tian said to Li Tai.

Li Tai never thought that such a mysterious army existed during the Three Kingdoms period.It seems that the history of the Three Kingdoms has indeed ignored the existence of Gongsun Du.

No wonder some people in later generations said that the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty should not be called the Three Kingdoms.Rather, it should be called the Four Kingdoms.

Because at that time, it was not only Wei Wang Cao Cao, Wu Wang Sun Quan and Shu Wang Liu Bei who dominated one side.There is another one who is entrenched in Liaodong, Liaodong Wang Gongsundu.

Perhaps it was because Sundu, the prince of Liaodong, did not participate in the battle for the Central Plains.That's why it was ignored by historians.

"I didn't expect your Gongsun family to have such a guard. Then why did you come to tell this king about this?" Li Tai asked Gongsun Tian.

"Although the grassroots don't understand righteousness, they know that they can't take refuge in foreigners. This decision made by my father is tantamount to pushing the Gongsun family into a place of eternal doom."

"There are many families that have slowly declined in the long river of history. But they will not be cursed by future generations. Because they have not done anything to betray the country."

"But what my father did today is no different from what Li Tong foreign countries are doing. The grass people don't want the Gongsun family to be accused of traitors." Gongsun Tian said to Li Tai.

Li Tai couldn't help but nodded when he heard Gongsuntian's words.In my heart, I couldn't help but overestimate this Gongsun Tian by three points.

"Do you know that your decision today may cost your father and family members their lives?" Li Tai asked, looking at Gongsuntian.

"The grass people know that this will definitely be the result in the end. Even so, the grass people can't look at Gongsun's family and take the road of connecting with foreign countries." Gongsuntian said to Li Tai.

"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. I am very satisfied with your pure heart. I wonder if you are willing to stay under my command?" Gongsun Tian said after Li Tai nodded.

"I'm afraid Caomin will not have that chance anymore. When his father and second brother are beheaded, it will be the day Caomin commits suicide."

"The grass people only hope that His Highness King Yan will only punish the chief villain, and don't implicate the rest of the Gongsun family." Gongsun Tian shook his head and said.

Everyone didn't expect that Gongsun Tian would prepare to die in the name of loyalty and filial piety.This made everyone admire Gongsun Tian even more.

"Have you ever thought about who will take over the big Gongsun family after the three of you die?" Li Tai asked Gongsuntian.

"His Royal Highness the King of Yan can choose one of the juniors of the Gongsun family to take over the Gongsun family. Of course, the King of Yan can also directly assign the Gongsun family to the state of Yan." Gongsun Tian said to Li Tai.

"This Gongsun Tian actually made such a decision for the sake of the reputation of the Gongsun family. This is a role model for my generation. Do you think such a person should die?" Li Tai asked everyone.

"My lord, this Gongsun Tian is a man of great benevolence and righteousness. In the name of loyalty and filial piety, he would rather die for benevolence. I'm afraid there will be few people in the world." Luwanda said to Li Tai.

"This king also thinks so, so this king will never let you die. Now this king gives you two choices, the first is to survive and atone for your father."

"The second is that you choose to commit suicide, and then this king will kill all the old and young of your Gongsun family. Even if it is a mouse, this king will not let the Gongsun family stay."

"And announce to the world that your father, Gongsun Bonian, intends to communicate with foreign countries and flee to Khitan. Let the people of the world regard your Gongsun family as a traitor." Li Tai said, looking at Gongsun Tian.

Gongsuntian never thought that Li Tai would be so decisive in handling matters.Let yourself have no choice at all.

So he had no choice but to sit down on the ground.There was no spark in his eyes, as if even he himself didn't know what to do now.

"Gongsuntian, the lord is interested in recruiting you because of your character. Why are you so persistent." Luwanda stretched out his hand to help Gongsuntian up, and then said to Gongsuntian.
