"I heard that the emperor is plotting rebellion!"
"What does Mr. Shi think it should be?!"
In Xiapi City, Xuzhou, Hu Zun was lying on the couch and asked a very explosive question.
General Fenwu Shi Bao looked at Hu Zun in front of him in astonishment, and suddenly trembled.
Qingzhou and Xuzhou now have two generals, Hu Zun, the general who conquered the east, and Shi Bao, the general who fought hard.
Hu Zun's authority is of course higher. As the general of the Four Expeditions, he can crush Shi Bao in all aspects such as official title, reputation, qualifications, military exploits, etc., even his birth status.
Hu Zunke came from a wealthy family, and he was the governor of the Qingxu War Zone.
However, Shi Bao was only the governor of Qingzhou, and was still nominally under the jurisdiction of Hu Zun.
Shi Bao came from a very low background, perhaps not even a poor family, but he was very handsome. People at that time said: Shi Zhongrong is unparalleled in beauty.
At first, he was selling iron in Luoyang, and was discovered by Sima Yi, who promoted him to the official position of Shangshutai. In fact, the person who really appreciated Shi Bao was not Sima Yi, but Sima Shi.
Sima Yi once said: Shi Bao is lustful and thin, and cannot be reused.
However, Master Sima thought that this person was very talented and could be used by him. Later, Master Sima also warned Sima Zhao that this person could be used, but he would need to be beaten a little. This made Sima Zhao always feel that his brother did not like Shi Bao.
Later, Sima Zhao led Hu Zun, Zhuge Dan and other generals to fight Zhuge Ke. The army was lost in one battle, but Shi Bao retained his strength, allowing Sima Zhao to save some face.
This made Sima Zhao very happy. He felt that his talents surpassed those of Hu Zun and Zhuge Dan, so he gave him a holiday so that he would not be subject to too many restrictions from Hu Zun.
Historically, this person's performance was considered good. By the time of Sima Anshi, some people said that he conspired with the State of Wu to rebel. Some divination people also said that someone in the State of Wu was plotting to rebel. There were also various stories with stone characters. Nursery Rhymes.
He sent people to investigate. It happened that Wu State had an abnormal troop deployment and Shi Bao was stocking up on grain and grass. Sima Yan was shocked and sent someone to summon his son to come to him. However, his son still refused to go. Sima Yan immediately identified this person. To rebel.
When Shi Bao found out that the army was going to deal with him, he hurriedly went to plead guilty, and Sima Yan did not continue to deal with him.
Later, Sima Anshi felt that what he had done might be a bit unkind, so he named him Situ as compensation.
Shi Bao had no stain in his life, he had never done any bad things, and he could be regarded as conscientious in his duties. His only black mark was probably the birth of a son.
His son's name is Shi Chong. Yes, the man I mentioned earlier robbed and killed merchants, beheaded beauties after drinking too much wine, built a lot of construction projects in the toilet, and made domestic slaves wear luxurious clothes to see the emperor. He did countless evil deeds. The protagonist is his son.
At this moment, Shi Bao's reputation has not been brought to the cesspit by his son. He is still an ambitious and capable minister who strives to fight in the direction of Sangong.
He is no longer young, but his style is still the same, and he looks very handsome, mature and handsome.
He looked at Hu Zun in front of him in shock, his mind going blank.
Hu Zun looked at him and asked again: "Didn't you receive any orders?!"
Neither Hu Zun nor Zhuge Dan liked Shi Bao. This was of course because Sima Zhao used Shi Bao to step on them.
Shi Bao knew this very well and replied helplessly at this moment: "General, I will pull out the person who said this and behead him."
"How can there be a rebel emperor in the world?"
"Appalling!"
Hu Zun made a sound, and then said: "There are only you and me in the house, no one else, so tell me what you heard."
Shi Bao hurriedly said: "I heard that your majesty today is a man of great talent and strategy. He has inherited the mantle of the Ming Emperor and the ambition of the general. He wants to govern the world and eliminate traitors."
Hu Zun sneered, "Then who do you think is the traitor?"
Shi Bao was sweating a little now.
Although the two of them each governed a state, they were completely different from each other at the military level. Shi Bao was unable to resist Hu Zun and could not be defeated. Moreover, there was a superior-subordinate relationship. If there was a conflict with Hu Zun, Shi Bao's soldiers would They may not even listen to him.
This is also the reason why he came to see the other party alone.
"The general believes that Gao Rou, Sima Fu and others are the traitors in the temple."
Hu Zun's face looked better, he frowned and looked unhappy.
"Zhuge Dan actually went to Luoyang. He heard that he was going to become a Taiwei. Guan Qiujian had already followed the emperor, and important matters in Hebei were actually handed over to a young boy!"
"I am a dignified general who conquers the east, but I have never received any orders until now. Am I also a traitor?!"
Hu Zun was really angry now. He felt that he had been humiliated.
If he hadn't been in poor health recently and occasionally felt cold, he would have led the army to practice and let the emperor see that there was a general here!
You even tried to win over Zhuge Dan, but why couldn't you see that there was someone else here?
Shi Bao didn't say anything, and Hu Zun stepped out. He was a rough and arrogant person with a strong warrior style. The so-called warrior style was reckless and rough.
He has a similar personality to Wen Qin.
He was a general who followed Sima Yi from the beginning. Under Sima Yi's command, he fought many beautiful battles, but the number of times he commanded the army was very limited.
At this moment, because of his military exploits, he was quite proud of the others, and he thought about many things with the mindset of a warrior.

Shi Bao was very convinced of the emperor.
After learning that the emperor had won a great victory, Shi Bao decided to follow this wise emperor. He was a relatively easy-going person. Even Sima Zhao bowed his head. As a minister, what else could he be dissatisfied with?
He is such a vigorous general who is not even as good as the Four Towns, so don't think about doing anything big.
Hearing Hu Zun's words, Shi Bao suddenly realized that this seemed to be a good opportunity for him to make a contribution.
He was worried about not being able to get close to the emperor!
Shi Bao immediately said: "General, I think your Majesty values you very much."
"Oh? Do you care??"
Shi Bao said seriously: "The generals in Hebei have been dismissed by Your Majesty. Zhuge Dan has also been recalled to the temple. The ones in the west have also been replaced. Only in the east, Your Majesty has done nothing. Isn't this your Majesty's trust in you? ?"
"Since the general passed away due to illness, His Majesty has not made any appointments yet. The general thinks that His Majesty may want to call you as the general!"
"What did you say?!"
Hu Zun sat up suddenly, with a look of surprise on his face, and then said: "Don't you want to talk nonsense here, what proof do you have?!"
Shi Bao smiled and said: "General, a general is used to command the world's armies. He must be the one with the most military exploits. As for military exploits, who among the current Wei Dynasties can compare with you?"
"The general has a large number of troops and the commander is Qing Xu, but your majesty did not send anyone to read out the edict. He just wanted you to feel at ease here."
"This shows His Majesty's trust in you. Your Majesty has other plans for your coming. What else could it be besides a general?"
When Shi Bao said this, Hu Zunke became a little excited.
But he still shook his head, "Unlikely."
"General, I am willing to go to the temple on your behalf to meet the emperor and ask about important matters."
Hu Zun narrowed his eyes, "Are you so anxious to leave Qingzhou?"
"Then the general can also appoint others to inquire. When the new saint is enthroned, he should have sent people to visit him. Now that you are ill, if you ask others to visit your majesty on your behalf, no one dares to say anything."
Hu Zun reluctantly agreed to Shi Bao's proposal, "Let's do this. I will send someone to follow you to Luoyang to meet the emperor."
"I am ill and cannot go to see you. I ask the emperor not to pay attention to my rudeness."
"The last general takes command!"
Shi Bao left here very happily.
After he left, Hu Zun called his son Hu Fen over. Hu Fen had been running around these days, which was considered very hard.
Hu Zun sneered and said: "Shi Bao, this fellow, regards me as a step to climb up. He is planning to use me to make meritorious deeds!"
"No wonder Xuanwen Guild said that this person cannot be reused."
"It's just as he expected!"
After hearing his father's words, Hu Fen nodded in agreement.
Although his father was reckless and rude, he was not stupid. A stupid person could not be a general in four expeditions, let alone lead an entire clan to take off on his own.
But many people underestimated his strategy because of his father's rough image.
"Father, what should we do now?"
"What else can I do? Tell me, why does the emperor dare to despise me so much and not send anyone to comfort me?"
Hu Fen pondered for a moment, "I think we are sure of victory."
"You are right. Looking at the emperor's previous behavior, he is definitely not an arrogant and rude person, but he treats me with such contempt. Obviously, he has someone to rely on."
"These four expeditions and towns have probably all surrendered to him. Maybe everyone around us is already his, so he dares to be so confident."
Hu Zun could only think in this direction. Of course he couldn't think of the real reason. Cao Mao knew that he only had less than a year to live.
"You go to see the emperor on my behalf, express your loyalty to the emperor, and tell him that I am willing to assist His Majesty with peace of mind and complete your great cause."
Hu Zun said seriously: "He probably doesn't want to really force me to rebel. He is just putting pressure on me. He wants me to bow my head and you go first, bow your head and surrender. I will continue to stay here to see what happens next."
The father and son immediately began to battle wits with the emperor. They guessed which people around them had surrendered to the emperor in private, and plotted how to counter his majesty's plan.
At this time, a fast horse arrived in Qingzhou.
The envoy brought news from Luoyang, and the emperor sent his servants to rectify the administration of officials, requiring full cooperation from the four expeditions and four towns.
Hu Zun confidently handed the edict to his son to read.
"Sure enough, we guessed right! You see, this is what the emperor used to test us! He wants to see if we will obey his edict!"
"Your Majesty, you are really very resourceful!"
