Features: In Zhongnanhai, people often saw Deng Lin pedaling his car swiftly while whistling tunes. Liu Yuan recalls: During one meeting with Liu Shaoqi, Khrushchev said, "The girlfriend of your son has written to me, seeking my support." Chen Xiaolu saved some pocket money and set up her own small library, taking pride in borrowing books from her father, Chen Yi. Wu Shaoguo traces: "When I was on my way from Xiangshan to Zhongnanhai, everyone had already left, and no one was watching me. It was Yang Shangkun's son, Yang Xia'er, who came to call me." The children who lived in Zhongnanhai back then now take us behind the mysterious red walls. The world has its own speculations about Zhongnanhai, while the adults in Zhongnanhai have their own perspectives on it, and the children's view of Zhongnanhai is yet another realm. Through the eyes of children living in Zhongnanhai, we see all of this, which helps people understand a more comprehensive Zhongnanhai. It also helps people see another side of the leaders, their families, and the Communist Party officials at various levels from an angle that ordinary people rarely get to glimpse.
