The Moon Palace is also called the Moon, and later generations named the place where the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon lived as Guanghan Palace. Whenever night falls, a bright moon rises in the night sky, and the clear moonlight spreads all over the earth, which makes people think a lot. There have been legends of Jade Rabbit and Chang 'e since ancient times.
Chang 'e, whose real name was Heng E, was later renamed Chang 'e to avoid the taboo of Liu Heng, the emperor of China. The Book of Songs called her "Di Ku's concubine's daughter". Some historians infer that Heng E just started to marry Hou Yi, which is probably a political marriage between two tribes.
Later, Han Zhuo killed Hou Yi and became king. Heng E's tribe allied with the Han family, and she remarried to Han Zhuo herself. Hanshui, the "king of the kingdom", and Yi, the ancestor of Ge, are her remarried sons. Sun Jingming, a researcher at Weifang Museum in Shandong Province, said that there is a cold pavilion in Weifang City, where the "cold pavilion", the capital of the Han Dynasty, was located more than 4,000 years ago.
Extended data:
Legend has it that there is a laurel tree 500 feet high on the moon. There was a man named WU GANG in the Han Dynasty who was obsessed with fairy tales and didn't concentrate on reading. So the Emperor was furious and shut him up in the Moon Palace, telling him to cut down the osmanthus tree, saying, "Cutting down the osmanthus tree will have magic."
However, every time WU GANG cuts an axe, the tree wound will heal immediately. Day after day, WU GANG's desire to cut laurel was not realized. Therefore, WU GANG cut laurels in the Moon Palace all the year round, but he still couldn't cut down trees, so later generations can see the image of Wu Gang cutting laurels endlessly in the middle of the month.
