Yuan pulls quietly away from his parents - after everything that Jingyi has done for him, this is the least he can do in return - and moves over to kneel beside his friend, wrapping a comforting arm around his shoulder.
"You'll see him again soon," he whispers softly - but he'll happily stay and hold Jingyi for as long as he needs it.
Wuxian can't help but smile, leaning into his husband - they've got themselves a pretty good son.

"Jiang-zongzhu?" a Jin servant comes scurrying in and bows "Ouyang-gongzi is here asking to meet with you, he has a message but he's said he'll only deliver it to you personally."
Technically, Zizhen's orders hadn't exactly been that, but he thought it was better safe than sorry - and also felt like a suitably dramatic finish for his long journey. He's swaying a little on his feet and basically running on fumes at this point, but he got here as fast as he could and he really, really hopes that whatever Wei-qianbei has sent him with will help Jin Ling.
