在laravel 5中以递归关系包含回复

I have a table named replies contains all replies of a topic in a Forum laravel application.

**replies Table**
---------------
    reply_id
    content
    topic_id
    reply_by
    embed_reply
    created_at
    updated_at

replies can have another reply Herself.for that there is embed_reply column that hold reply_id of included reply.

Now I want details of included reply would have existed on the parent Reply on fetching.

for that i add this Method to reply Model :

public function included_reply ()
        {
            return $this->with('replies', function ($query) {
                $query->where('reply_id',$this->embed_reply);
            });
        }

And for fetching replies of a specific Topic, I wrote this :

$topic = Topic::whereTopicId($id)
                ->with([
                    'replies' => function ($query) {
                        $query->orderBy('created_at', 'desc');
                    }
                    , 'replies.included_reply'
                ])
                ->first();

all of this return bellow Error:

BadMethodCallException in Builder.php line 2071:
Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::replies()

and I do not know how to do that. what is solution?

I got my answer in:

laracasts.com/discuss

This is relationship that I must be added:

public function embed()
{
    return $this->belongsTo(Reply::class, 'embed_reply');
}

and this for fetching that :

$reply = Reply::find($reply_id);
$embed = $reply->embed;
