2. An ancient fairy tale in China tells that Chang 'e was cornered by Feng Meng, but in desperation she ate the fairy medicine given by the Queen Mother of the West to her husband Hou Yi and flew to the Moon Palace. The myth of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon originated from the ancient people's worship of stars. According to the existing written records, it first appeared in ancient books such as Huainanzi.

Chang 'e boarded the moon palace. According to ancient books such as Huai Nan Zi in the Western Han Dynasty, it was because she ate the elixir of life demanded by her husband Yi Xi Wu Niang, and then flew into the Moon Palace and became a toad. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Gaoyou annotated Huai Nan Zi, saying that Chang 'e was the wife of a righteous man. It is said that Dayi's wife's name is Chang 'e, because the Han people avoided the taboo of the then emperor Liu Heng, and later her name was changed to Chang 'e (Chang 'e).
