Jiang Cheng hummed a moment, thinking that over. Predictably, he shakes his head. "No, but I can think of one other way you can help."
He gets to his feet and quickly slips out of his robes, tossing them aside on the nearest surface. The tub was plenty big enough for both of them and with a little magic and a lot of not giving a fuck, it was still plenty warm for him to enjoy. Besides, the only aspect of the bath he actually cared about was tugging a soft, warm body onto his lap anyway. He tried to be careful to keep Huaisang's hair draped over his own shoulder so it wouldn't get wet but a few locks may have slipped in the switch.
He wonders as he kisses along a bare wet shoulder what his brother might think if he walked in on this. Being drunk and screwing in the hall was one thing. Being completely sober and having a romantic bath for two was completely different. His lips curled. He really liked his secret love affair.
"If you'll have your spies watching over Ling while he's still vulnerable till I get back, there's no reason you can't come with me." Was that too obvious? It might be. It doesn't keep him from wondering if they couldn't get away with sneaking a quickie in a carriage. How hot would that be? All his disciples right outside.. Ugh, he needs to quit thinking about this! Huaisang's body needed a break!

"Did you know your dads have a song? Hanguang Jun wrote it for Wei-qianbei. There's a whole big story behind it too. It's come up a few times, but they're pretty private about all the details. I bet they'd share the story with you though." Jingyi explains, unaware that this story might be the one that prompted this idea in the first place.
"But.." Huh.. no. No, he doesn't think there is a specific rule saying you can't do that.
Just as he's thinking about that though, Sizhui can see his parents coming up the path to the house. They're both moving with more purpose than is normal for this time of evening.
"Jingyi! Ready the juniors who are able at once!" Hanguang Jun orders without greeting either boys. "Dress warmly, we're going through the foothills." He hurries up the stairs of the Jingshi and glances at Sizhui with a frown. Without comment, he continues into the building and gets a bag to toss supplies into.
Jingyi doesn't have to be told twice and he bows at Sizhui apologetically. He is scurrying off toward the dormitory immediately without another word. It was time for gearing up for battle!
