Chapter 782: Chapter 782: She’s Getting Old
As a woman, a beautiful woman, the Princess Consort of Kang County did not easily admit the beauty of other won, especially using the word “beautiful.”
In her opinion, there are many good-looking won, but only a rare few could be described as “beautiful.”
Yet, the young woman not far away, surrounded by people, made that word involuntarily pop up in her mind.
She had seen her before.
Years ago.
By now, she should be in her thirties, so why does she still look as lovely and beautiful as a young girl?
The Princess Consort of Kang County stood in a daze, motionless.
“Princess consort, what are you looking at?” the maid, supporting her, asked softly.
“Who is that?” the Princess Consort of Kang County slightly raised her chin to gesture at soone in the distance.
The gorgeous and beautiful young woman was being escorted by a group of people.
The maid shook her head in confusion, “This servant does not recognize her, but she seems to be a lady from the palace. I see a eunuch following her.”
The Princess Consort of Kang County looked and indeed saw.
She understood at once and guessed the other party’s identity. She hurriedly rose to her feet, stepped forward, and curtsied, “This humble one pays her respects to the Crown Princess Consort.”
Jiang Ning raised her hand to support her and smiled, “Princess consort, you are a senior, there is no need to be so polite. Please stand up.”
The Princess Consort of Kang County straightened up, and as she looked closely at the other party’s face, she was even more awestruck by her beauty.
This eggshell-like creamy skin, flawless, faintly shimring with pearl-like radiance, enveloped her in a haze, making her seem unreal.
Every inch of her face was so perfect, like a priceless heirloom treasure.
The Princess Consort of Kang County couldn’t help but feel inferior and blurted, “Years ago, I had t Madam Jiang a few tis. I didn’t expect the Crown Princess Consort to look exactly like her. Just now… I almost mistook you for her.”
Jiang Ning smiled brightly, “Indeed, many people have confused with my mother. In fact, my mother is much prettier than .”
“The Crown Princess Consort is too modest.”
The Princess Consort of Kang County smiled faintly, her emotions complex.
eting Lin Zizi twice in the past had left her unable to forget her incredible beauty for so many years. It was understandable that the Emperor was infatuated with a woman like Lin Zizi.
Now, upon seeing Lin Zizi’s daughter, the Princess Consort of Kang County suddenly understood why this little girl could be so domineering in the harem, becoming the undisputed “little queen” behind the scenes of the palace.
A large part of it was likely because she was Lin Zizi’s daughter, and her unparalleled beauty had sothing to do with it.
The Emperor, unable to have Lin Zizi, put all his regrets and nostalgia for his youth onto Lin Zizi’s daughter and treated her as his own beloved child.
In the dead of night, did the Emperor ever imagine that Jiang Ning was the child he and Lin Zizi had together?
Knowing the Emperor’s feelings very well, the Princess Consort of Kang County knew that the Emperor must have not only fantasized about it once but ti and ti again.
Gazing upon the beautiful and delicate young girl before her, the Princess Consort of Kang County couldn’t help but feel a hint of lancholy and loss.
Though her son was already married, for the first ti in so many years, she realized that she had indeed aged.
She couldn’t rember who had told her that when a woman found soone younger than her to be more beautiful, she had aged.
Though she took great care in her appearance and looked after herself, she still looked attractive.
However, the erosion of years, the downturned corners of her lips and the fine lines around her eyes were worlds apart from a sixteen or seventeen-year-old tender and dainty girl.
