"Hmm?" Yang Wenxiao raised an eyebrow, "Baronet?"

"Baronet," Tong Sanlang confirmed with a nod.

Yang Wenxiao listened to this reasoning, the corner of his lips curled into a smile, and he set his tea bowl down on the table, sitting up straight, "On the day Shen Chenghao rebelled, you also played a significant role."

"Even if I hadn't taken action, you and His Majesty would have been unharmed," Tong Sanlang continued modestly.
