He nods enthusiastically, glad to spend time with his cousin.
"It...it isn't but I know our worlds vary very much between what has happened for you and for me. The Jin...well..."
He takes his cousin's lead toward the other's cabin. He should be safe here, right?
"Lanling Jin do not trust us," he says quietly. "Despite the great sect leaders agreeing to relocate us to Dafan Mountain, the Jin were...suspicious. Chifeng Zun, Zewu Jun, and Jiang-zongzhu had appointed Hanguang Jun to keep an eye on what we did."
He trusts his cousin and has no secrets of his own. But he also knows his place.
"Jin Guangshan had always had a certain view of the Wen. Especially since we escaped from his prison camp. He had maintained that we...were amassing armies and committing crimes. Jin Zixuan believed it as well until Jiang-guniang had taken him to meet us."
His smile is soft, sad.
"Unfortunately, Jin Guangshan had...a strong hand in Jin Rulan's education."
