Chapter 849 Yin Jingyi and Cong Suxin

He was still wearing armor, but it couldn't hide his heroic appearance. His brows revealed an extraordinary demeanor, but deep in his eyes, there was a hint of subtle fatigue and irritability.

At this moment, he did not return to the magnificent but intrigue-filled mansion, but went straight to a secret villa in the city.

Although the villa is small, it is decorated very elegantly, with rockery, flowing water, lush flowers and trees, as if it is a paradise far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

This is the place where Yin Jingyi and his beloved Cong Suxin had a secret rendezvous.

Whenever he took off the heavy armor and stepped into this small world that belonged to them, the violence and depression in his heart seemed to be gently soothed, leaving only peace and tranquility.

In the courtyard, lanterns emitted soft light, illuminating the winding path and also illuminating Yin Jingyi's heart that longed for peace.

He walked through the courtyard with ease. For Yin Jingyi, this was his real home.

When he pushed open the door of the wing room, a faint scent of incense wafted into his nose. It was the unique scent from Su Xin, which instantly relaxed Yin Jingyi's tense nerves.

Inside the house, the flickering candlelight illuminated Cong Suxin's gentle face.

She was sitting in front of the window, holding a collection of poems in her hand, reciting softly. In Yin Jingyi's eyes, her focused expression and soft profile at this moment were so beautiful under the candlelight.

"Jingyi, you're here."

Cong Su Xin seemed to sense his arrival. She gently put down the book in her hand, turned around, and a bright smile blossomed on her face, like a flower blooming in spring, warm and bright, which instantly dispelled the haze in Yin Jingyi's heart.

This is a woman as gentle as water, wearing an elegant silk dress, with her hair tied up in a bun and a few strands of black hair falling on her shoulders, adding a bit of tenderness.

Her appearance was not stunningly beautiful, but she had an indescribable charm. It was the gentleness and tenacity that emanated from her bones, which made the originally violent Yin Jingyi intoxicated by her.

Yin Jingyi walked quickly to her side and hugged her in his arms, tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.

He buried his head in her neck and took a deep breath. It was her scent that made him feel extremely safe and satisfied.

"Su Xin, only when I'm with you can I feel a moment of peace."

Yin Jingyi's voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of fatigue, but more of it was his attachment to Cong Suxin.

Yin Jingyi, who was originally a child of aristocratic family and was forced to marry a jealous woman he didn't like, didn't want to bring his confidante, whom he loved deeply, into his home to engage in intrigue.

Therefore, only in this small world, when the two of them are alone together, can Yin Jingyi's deeply buried violent heart feel a moment of peace!

"Su Xin, have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

He asked softly, his tone full of apology and care.

"Soon, I know you are very busy, and I am very happy that you can take time to come here."

Cong Suxin shook her head and smiled.

As she spoke, she led Yin Jingyi to sit at the stone table in the yard. Several exquisite side dishes and a pot of sake had already been prepared on the table.

"Jingyi, I heard that there have been frequent wars on the borders of Daqian in recent days. The burden on your shoulders must be very heavy, right?"

The two sat opposite each other. Cong Suxin poured a glass of wine for Yin Jingyi and spoke softly.

There was some concern in her tone, but she was measured. She slightly expressed her worry as a confidante, but avoided touching on the sensitive military and political matters.

"Su Xin, you don't know that the situation in the court is far more complicated than on the battlefield. I am a descendant of a noble family, but I have been repeatedly suppressed because of the policies of the previous emperor."

"Now that Grand Tutor Gu Changqing is extremely powerful, even though I have the Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion at my disposal, it is still difficult for me to realize my ambitions."

Yin Jingyi took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, as if he wanted to swallow up the annoyance in his heart. Then he sighed and said.

"Jingyi, I know you have great ambitions in your heart, and I understand your suffering."

"But in these troubled times, isn't it a kind of wisdom to preserve yourself and protect the ones you love? Don't worry too much, everything will be fine." Hearing this, a trace of heartache flashed in Su Xin's eyes. She gently held Yin Jingyi's hand and said softly.

Yin Jingyi felt a warm feeling in his heart as he listened to Cong Suxin's words.

In this world full of calculations and struggles, Su Xin's innocence and kindness are like a clear spring, nourishing his dry heart.

"Su Xin, having you by my side is the greatest luck in my life."

He held Cong Suxin's hand and looked at her affectionately.

"Jingyi, I am the same.

I only wish to be with you, no matter the wind and rain, and never leave you. "

A blush appeared on Su Xin's face. She lowered her head and her voice was as soft as a mosquito.

Yin Jingyi raised his head, looked into Cong Suxin's eyes full of tenderness, and held her hand tightly, as if he was holding the whole world.

"Xin'er, you know what? Sometimes I really feel that this world is too dark and too cruel. As a child of an aristocratic family, I have to be drawn into the vortex of intrigue."

"My marriage, my future, and even my life seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand."

"In this chaotic world, we have no chance to choose!"

There was a hint of helplessness in Yin Jingyi's voice.

Cong Suxin listened quietly without interrupting him, but just used her presence to quietly give him the greatest comfort.

She knew that what Yin Jingyi needed was a listener, someone who could let down his guard and be honest with him.

"But every time I come here and see you, I feel that there is still a place in this world worth staying in."

Yin Jingyi continued, and there seemed to be light in his eyes.

The two of them hugged each other quietly, as if time had stopped at this moment.

In the middle of the yard, the moonlight filled the courtyard, covering the lovers with a layer of silver gauze.

In this tranquility and beauty, the violence and anger in Yin Jingyi's heart gradually dissipated.

It was late at night, and the candlelight gradually dimmed. Yin Jingyi and Cong Suxin snuggled together in front of the window, quietly admiring the stars in the night sky.

At this moment, all the worries in Yin Jingyi's heart seemed to disappear. He just wanted to spend the rest of his life with Cong Suxin, away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

However, they all knew that such peace was only temporary.

Yin Jingyi is now a senior general of Daqian, and the Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion under his command is also responsible for defending the capital. Cong Suxin, as his confidante, is also willing to support him silently.

"Su Xin, I want to go back."

"You must take good care of yourself and wait for me. When I have resolved everything, I will definitely give you a status and let you no longer suffer this injustice."

It was late at night and Yin Jingyi had to leave. He held Cong Suxin's hand tightly and said reluctantly.

"Jingyi, I don't care about status, I only care about you. You must come back safely. I'll wait for you."

Cong Suxin shook her head, tears in her eyes, but spoke firmly.

Yin Jingyi nodded, looked at Cong Suxin deeply, turned and left.

The slender figure gradually disappeared into the night, leaving only Su Xin, standing in the moonlight, looking in the direction he left, unwilling to leave for a long time.
