After returning to Yecheng, Shi Min became more low-key, closed doors, not a very important thing, and generally would not go out.

At the same time, Shi Hu took Pengcheng Gong Shi Zun as the general, led the three generals Ma Qiu, Liang Qian, and Shi Jian, and rode 70,000 men to resist Sima Xun's Jin army of the Northern Expedition. Sima Xun's troops were insufficient, and after several battles, Sima Xun did not dare to continue advancing because he was afraid of the elite cavalry of Zhao State.

In October, Sima Xun gave up the hook and returned to Liangzhou.

In the ninth year of Zhao Jianwu (343), Li Hong, a native of Beiqiu, complied with the grievances of the people, claimed that his name was consistent with the proverb, gathered party henchmen, set up hundreds of officials, and was killed after the incident, and thousands of people were convicted.

Shi Min, who received the news, couldn't help but tighten his brows.

During this time, Shi Min has been replenishing his troops, training his soldiers, and maintaining the military strength of his headquarters at about 200,000, of which the Han army accounts for four-fifths, and the rest are very large.

"This Li Hongshun is really innocent." Qin Mu shook his head and said.

"The kingdom will be in turmoil, and there will be demons." Shi Min squinted his eyes, "If it weren't for Shi Hu's atrocities, I was afraid that Li Hongshun would revolt, and I wouldn't have received so much response from Li Shu." ”

"It's just a matter of casualties."

The reason for Li Hongshun's uprising this time is well known.

In December of the eighth year of Xiankang (342), Shi Hu built more than 40 temples in Yecheng, and built two palaces in Luoyang and Chang'an, and more than 400,000 people participated in the work.

Shi Hu also wanted to build a pavilion road from Yecheng to Xiangguo, and ordered the four prefectures and counties south of the Yellow River to rectify the armaments of the Southern Expedition, and prepare military funds for the westward expedition in Bingzhou, Shuozhou, Qinzhou, and Yongzhou, and Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou to prepare for the Eastern Expedition.

The armies of the prefectures and counties totaled more than 500,000 armor soldiers and 170,000 boatmen, and one-third of them drowned and were devoured by tigers and wolves. In addition, the princes and shepherds competed for personal gain, and the people lost their family business and were distressed.

It was against this background that Li Hongshun came to light.

However, in this world of great controversy, the chances of a peasant uprising succeeding are slim to none!

Qin Mu immediately clenched his fists and said, "Lord, the time is ripe. Shi Hu's various atrocities have lost the support of the people, and there are many people in the government and the opposition who are not convinced! Now the lord has 200,000 elite soldiers, and he has the support of Ma Qiu, Liang Qian, Li Nong and other powerful generals, as long as the lord raises his arms, he will be able to replace him! ”

Hearing this, Shi Min's brows furrowed: "No, it's not time yet." ”

"How long do you want to wait? Decade? Twenty years? ”

"Wait another month."

"A month?" Qin Mu was stunned.

Why is Shi Min so sure?

"When Shi Hu died violently, it was the day I seized power."

Shi Min got the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill from the old poison Tao Yong, which is a colorless and tasteless poison, which is taken in three times, once a month, and cannot be interrupted. Shi Min's secret lover Zheng Cherry was favored by Shi Hu again, so he drugged him, and after all, Shi Hu had already taken two Three Corpse Brain Divine Pills, and his life was not long......

"If Shi Hu dies, I don't know who the lord will ascend to the throne?"

"Shi Jian or Shi Zun."

Jianzhang Palace.

The sandalwood wafting from the Ding furnace curls up, and the clouds are foggy. In this huge palace room, except for a few eunuchs and palace maids with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, there is no one else!

Oh, on the bed, there was still a pale man with a cough, it was Shi Hu.

At this time, the eunuch Liu Ba hurriedly ran in.

"King, Duke Peng Cheng has already arrived outside the palace."

"Let him in."

"No."

After a while, Shi Zun, who was in armor, lowered his head and entered the palace step by step.

When Shi Zun arrived in front of Shi Hu, the latter waved his hand, and the nearby palace maids and attendants retreated one after another. In this huge palace, only the father and son are left.

"Father."

"Zun'er, do you know why I summoned you back from Chang'an?"

"I don't know."

Shi Zun really doesn't know the details, but it is expected that Shi Hu's appearance will not live long, and most of them will have to explain the future. According to Shi Hu's reliance on himself over the past year, maybe he is expected to be the prince......

"Shi Zun, can I trust you?"

Shi Hu asked this sentence, and Shi Zun quickly knelt down: "Father, the loyalty of the sons to their father can be seen by the sun and the moon!" If the father has an order, but he says, all the sons will obey it! ”

"Good!"

Shi Hu took out a secret edict from under his pillow and handed it to Shi Zun's hand.

"Father, what is this?"

"Testament."

"Edict? This ......" Shi Zun slammed his head on the ground and said in fear, "Why did my father say this?" Father, you are in the prime of spring and autumn, and this time you are sick, but you are sick, and you think you will recover soon. ”

Hearing this, Shi Hu waved his hand and said, "My own body, don't you know it?" Shi Zun, you honestly explained to your father, do you covet the position of prince? ”

"Yes."

Shi Hu smiled indifferently: "Very good." Zun'er, my father is seriously ill, and his life is short, but he is uncertain about what will happen after his death, and he is never at ease! Among my father's dozen sons, you and Shi Bin were originally the most in line with my heart. Shi Di and Shi Xuan were successively the crown princes, and they all rebelled, so I was discouraged in the matter of establishing the prince. ”

"However, there is no prince in the country, that is, the country is uncertain. Among my adult princes, the outstanding ones are you, Shi Bin and Shi Jian, but Shi Bin is more than brave and has no strategy, although Shi Jian has a strategy, but his courage is insufficient. Only you are Shi Zun, who can be civil and martial, and have the style of being a father! ”

"Father!"

"Shi Zun, only in this troubled world, how do you want to use people?"

"The sons will inherit your father's business, and those who are capable will use it."

"One-sided." Shi Hu shook his head and said, "Shi Min...... How do you use it? ”

"This ......," Shi Zun hesitated for a moment.

Shi Hu said in a deep voice: "Shi Min, Lu Hu also." Father uses Shi Min, but he is still afraid, do you think you can control him? ”

"Erchen has no bottom."

"That's right." Shi Hu sighed and said, "Shi Min has the ability, for me to be the god of war of the Great Zhao Kingdom, the Optimus Giant Pillar, but he is also unpredictable, seems to have a heart for the Han, and is an outsider in the end!" ”

"Father wants to kill him?"

"Nope." Shi Hu waved his hand and said, "Shi Min can't be killed now." Today's decision is undecided, the country is chaotic, the princes are powerful, and Shi Min is still needed to conquer, but after all, it is powerful, and I am afraid that raising tigers will be troublesome. ”

"What is my father going to do?"

"Let him go. The two countries of the Yan Dynasty were not very peaceful during this time, and I wanted to make Shi Min the general of the expedition to the north, guard Jicheng, and supervise Youzhou and the military of the state. ”

"General of the expedition to the north?" Shi Zun smiled dumbly, "Father, isn't this degrading Shi Min?" Shi Min is now an official worshipping the general, the head of the generals, how can he be willing to release Jicheng and be a general of the northern expedition under the innocence? ”

"If he doesn't want to, he doesn't want to."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Shi Min is also a tiger, wild and untamable. If you can't use it, it's a big problem! It will be eliminated and then fast. ”

"Father is saying that if Shi Min does not obey the order and goes out of the town to merge, his father will kill him with a plan?"

"Not bad."

"But Shi Min has 200,000 tiger and wolf divisions, all of whom are stationed in the Zhanghe camp!"

"I have my own opinions."
