The Emperor made a proposal: "If you are worried that the Qi Family Construction Business lacks manpower, let the Ministry of Works send a few skilled craftsmen over to assist Qi Younian."
Jinrong felt a bit overwhelmed upon hearing this. He had approached Ye Xinyan to prepare for the Emperor's inquiry about the steam engine's expansion, not expecting the Emperor to want Ye Xinyan to pay more attention to the Mechanical Workshop.
Ye Xinyan is pregnant. If Jiang Yifan finds out that the Emperor is assigning Ye Xinyan tasks at this time, will he not cause trouble for him?
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. The Qi Family Construction Business does not lack manpower for now. I only fear failing your favor, as I may not be able to handle the follow-up matters of the steam engine." Ye Xinyan bluntly declined.
