"I'm sorry! I, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to find something to eat. I, I was so hungry." The little girl explained incoherently to the man in front of her.
"Are you hungry? Didn't you eat?"
The man in white looked at her with cold eyes.
"No, Aunt Hua didn't give me any food today."
Hearing this, the man in white nodded and said to her, "Come with me."
After saying that, the man in white walked past the little girl and headed straight towards the main hall.
Seeing this situation, the little girl hesitated for a moment, then quickly got up and followed the man.
Soon, two people, one big and one small, entered the hall.
After entering the hall, the little girl grabbed the index finger of one hand and looked very uneasy.
She didn't know who the man in front of her was, nor did she know what would happen next.

"I, I, can I really eat it?"
"Of course, sit down and eat." The man in white nodded.

…
A few minutes later, Evelin's hands and mouth were covered with oil stains, and there was no trace of tears left.
"You are so young but you are in the palace, so you must be a princess, right? But how come you can't even have food to eat?"
Li Bai asked as he looked at the little girl who was concentrating on eating in front of him.
"I am the nineteenth princess. My mother was banished to the cold palace by my father. Then the eunuchs and nannies who took care of me bullied me. Not only did they give me unpalatable food, they also often refused to let me eat. I haven't eaten for two days..."
Evelin suddenly lowered her head as she spoke, and tears flowed down her face again.
