Jinrong looked at Ye Xinyan's displeased expression, feeling uncertain, pondering how to answer her question.
This year marks the third year since the court began constructing the railway. Even after switching to wooden tracks, the construction process has been greatly simplified with the help of Guangsha Construction and new machinery. However, it has indeed cost the State Treasury a lot of silver, coinciding with a severe drought.
At such a time, proposing extravagance is out of the question. Yet, she even inquired about everyone's birthdays in the Mansion. Could it be that the Prince Yu's Mansion is to celebrate such things lavishly?
The topic seemed more vivid as it went on, but why did he feel it was very dangerous?
Jinrong decisively shook his head and said, "No, all the birthdays in my mansion that needed celebrating have been celebrated, and those that haven't are a long way off. There's no joyous event in the mansion."
