Rewards had already been distributed.
Then, what about punishment?
The Saint seemed to struggle for a moment to decide how to punish Yang Sanlang.
Because his mistake wasn't truly significant.
If the punishment was too severe, the noble family would protest.
But if he didn't punish at all, not to mention An Kang and her mother-in-law, even the Saint himself would feel "remorseful."
After all, to the high-ranking noble families, members of the royal family from warlord backgrounds were also considered coarse and lowly!
It was only because the previous generations of Kings were domineering and used strong tactics, striving to weaken the noble families over the generations.
Otherwise, the age-old, deep-rooted, and flourishing noble families would indeed be a formidable power that could inspire fear.
But even now, with the decline of the noble family, the Saint couldn't be too coercive.
Strictly punishing Yang Sanlang might provoke a desperate reaction from the noble family.
