As we dive into the story, we examine the challenges Da Yu faced, such as the relentless rain that submerged hills and valleys, leaving masses of people homeless and forced to seek refuge on mountaintops.

n this episode, we explore the Shanrang system, which challenges conventional notions of hereditary succession by passing power to individuals based on their talent and moral character, rather than their bloodline. While it may seem idealistic, we question the feasibility of such a system in historical times, considering the potential threats and conspiracies that could arise from ambitious heirs.
As we examine the similarities and differences between the Shanrang system and modern democracy, we touch upon the notion that power has the potential to corrupt individuals. We discuss the intricate dynamics of power in our daily lives, such as in schools, workplaces, and society at large.
Join us as we unravel the historical context, the virtues, and the shortcomings of the Shanrang system.

In this episode, we embark on an enchanting tale about the first woman to journey to the moon, Chang’E. While some may refer to her as a woman, she is, in fact, a goddess. The story of Chang E's celestial voyage is intertwined with the Mid-Autumn Festival, a time when moon cakes are enjoyed and the moon is admired.
We dive into the rich imagination of ancient Chinese people, who not only envisioned Chang’E residing on the moon but also imagined a moon palace and the woodcutter Wu Gang tirelessly chopping down a cassia tree. They also explore how modern-day speculations about the moon range from it being an alien base to a spaceship monitoring Earth.
