馬超之戰敗渭南也,走保諸戎。太祖追至安定,而蘇伯反河閒,將引軍東還。阜時奉使,言於太祖曰:「超有信、布之勇,甚得羌、胡心,西州畏之。若大軍還,不嚴爲之備,隴上諸郡非國家之有也。」太祖善之,而軍還倉卒,爲備不周。超率諸戎渠帥以擊隴上郡縣,隴上郡縣皆應之,惟冀城奉州郡以固守。超盡兼隴右之衆,而張魯又遣大將楊昂以助之,凡萬餘人,攻城。阜率國士大夫及宗族子弟勝兵者千餘人,使從弟岳於城上作偃月營,與超接戰,自正月至八月拒守而救兵不至。州遣別駕閻溫循水潛出求救,爲超所殺,於是刺史、太守失色,始有降超之計。阜流涕諫曰:「阜等率父兄子弟以義相勵,有死無二;田單之守,不固於此也。棄垂成之功,陷不義之名,阜以死守之。」遂號哭。刺史、太守卒遣人請和,開城門迎超。超入,拘岳於冀,使楊昂殺刺史、太守。

阜內有報超之志,而未得其便。頃之,阜以喪妻求葬假。阜外兄姜叙屯歷城。阜少長叙家,見叙母及叙,說前在冀中時事,歔欷悲甚。叙曰:「何爲乃爾?」阜曰:「守城不能完,君亡不能死,亦何面目以視息於天下!馬超背父叛君,虐殺州將,豈獨阜之憂責,一州士大夫皆蒙其恥。君擁兵專制而無討賊心,此趙盾所以書殺君也。超彊而無義,多釁易圖耳。」叙母慨然,勑叙從阜計。計定,外與鄉人姜隱、趙昂、尹奉、姚瓊、孔信、武都人李俊、王靈結謀,定討超約,使從弟謨至冀語岳,并結安定梁寬、南安趙衢、龐恭等。約誓旣明,十七年九月,與叙起兵於鹵城。超聞阜等兵起,自將出。而衢、寬等解岳,閉冀城門,討超妻子。超襲歷城,得叙母。叙母罵之曰:「汝背父之逆子,殺君之桀賊,天地豈乆容汝,而不早死,敢以面目視人乎!」超怒,殺之。阜與超戰,身被五創,宗族昆弟死者七人。超遂南奔張魯。
