Steward Zhou was also in the military tent.
Although he was injured in the shoulder, it did not touch any vital areas.
Having traveled far and wide with Old Master Zhou, he had suffered many injuries and wouldn't lie down because of a minor wound; he couldn't stay idle.
But the pain indeed pierced with every smile due to the injury.
Marquis Dongxiang poured a cup of alcohol to toast him.
If not for Steward Zhou's escort along the way, no one knows if Su Jin could have arrived safely at the border.
Moreover, Steward Zhou's contribution regarding the horses cannot be underestimated.
If it weren't for his extensive knowledge, timely guessing of Young Master Li's identity allowed Su Jin to arrive in Linzhou just in time to thwart the enemy's plot.
Marquis Dongxiang has always paid back his debts, and in the military, he is especially clear about rewards and punishments.
This cup of alcohol represents his gratitude as a father to Steward Zhou for helping his daughter.
