I heard the meeting between Xi and Kissinger was to discuss ways to mitigate the fallout of a pending war.

Why would it be to mitigate. It was probably a gambit to move the state of play beyond what China would be willing to deal with, essentially a threat, some revelations that the US hoped would take China by surprise. Honestly, I don't trust the framing of US buffoonery. They've demonstrated their ability and their willingness to do the worst things human beings can do. Kissinger was likely the harbinger attempting to get China to back down by speaking into existence the worst possible things we can imagine.
