But here, being summoned is completely normal.
Song Chengyue is not foolish; even if choosing sides is inevitable, now is not the time.
If he takes a stand now, even a slight hint will be his downfall.
Why not just lie low for now? He has not gone mad.
As Song Chengyue left, the Second Prince's smile faded, and he sat there quietly.
Beside the Second Prince, a eunuch poured tea and spoke in a low voice.
"Your Highness, this Song doesn't know what's good for him; he might not pledge allegiance to you.
There are already rumors that Song has disgraced Your Highness, so..."
Before finishing their words, the Second Prince glanced at the eunuch, who swallowed the rest of them.
"I do not need him to ally with me, as long as he doesn't lean towards the Crown Prince.
You've been with me since childhood; I keep you by my side to convey my messages.
Not to let you take initiative and misinterpret my intentions.
Should this happen again, your whole family will commit suicide."
