It should be noted that in order to weaken the Xianbei people as much as possible, Liu Hong had many people secretly smuggling grain and armor to him.
As it turned out, this naive boy fell for Tan Shihuai's tricks time and time again, losing all the grain and armor he had acquired.
Over the years, Tan Shihuai's strength has grown even more.
"It seems we need to send Fengxian and Zhongying back!"

Therefore, I came here specifically to ask Your Majesty to issue an imperial decree to grant Fengxian a marriage!"
"Yes, it's a good thing that the Emperor cares so much for his subordinates; I naturally support it!"
Dou Miao smiled and nodded, immediately agreeing to Liu Hong's request.
