Mo Yan and Bi Ziyu continued.
"Master, I don't know why my friends who used to be very good to me have started to distance themselves. It's as if all they feel for me is respect. Why is that?"
He wanted to joke and play around with them like before. But they always treated him with respect, no longer acting so carefree.

"Because they have a sense of propriety, and now you are the crown prince."
When you're happy, they're like brothers to you; when you're unhappy, they're considered to be acting insubordination.
