Everyone got excited as they complimented, and one clan elder couldn't hold back his words: "Lord Duke, I believe Brother Jin resembles you the most in both appearance and temperament, and he has such a gift for study. At such a young age, he's already a Graduate; maybe by next February's Imperial Spring Examination, he'll become a Scholar. Such a child, wouldn't he be the backbone of any family?"
"For several years, the position of Princely Heir in the Duke's Mansion has been vacant. After all, the boys are grown up; you should make an early decision and settle it, so the children feel secure. When the brothers are united, they can achieve great things. Why worry that our Song Family won't advance further?"
"Today, as an uncle, I'll daringly say something that shouldn't be said: you need to make an early decision!" With these words, he glanced meaningfully at Song Chongjin, who stood bowed nearby.
