This regional stability was exactly what the Zhou family had hoped to see for generations.
Now that it had been realized in his hands, Zhou Shixiong had nothing left to worry about.
Seeing the others looking aggrieved on his behalf, Zhou Shixiong smiled. "This is a good thing. It shows that the border city is stable. Besides, with the Zhou family's military merits, we definitely won't be treated poorly when we return.
"When the time comes, I can also take a break, become a wealthy man of leisure, and enjoy a few comfortable days."
Gu Wenheng did not think the Emperor was calling them back just to give them a vacation. "Brother Zhou, aren't you being a bit too optimistic? You should know that there's a bunch of old foxes waiting in Shangjing."
To be honest, he really didn't want to go back. Even if he did, he didn't want to take up a post in Shangjing. Rather than bickering with those old fox aristocrats, it would be better to take a local post and do some real work.
