Hou Yi's disciple Peng Meng coveted the elixir and forced Chang'e to hand over the elixir, but Chang'e swallowed the elixir in a hurry, and flew away like the sky. It was August 15, the moon was big and bright, because of the reluctance to Hou Yi, Chang'e stopped at the moon closest to the earth, and since then she has lived in Guanghan Palace for a long time.
