Perhaps because Zhu Yuanzhang was born in poverty, he would be partial to some more flamboyant rich people after he ascended the throne. And Shen Wansan also don't know because of enthusiasm or want to court, often when zhu yuanzhang ready to use money will appear in his sight. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang once wanted to reward the army, and Shen Wansan donated money to the army to let them replenish supplies; For example, when Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to repair the city wall, he immediately volunteered to hire someone to repair it, which was not only efficient but also of high quality.
Gradually, Zhu Yuanzhang hated Shen Wansan and even wanted him to die. But he is a monarch after all. How can he kill for no reason? So he thought about it and thought of a way. He began to eat at Shen Wansan's house often, seemingly paying attention to Shen Wansan, but actually paving the way for finding fault with him.
One day, Zhu Yuanzhang specially asked the cook to make a pig's trotter. When pig's trotters were served, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Shen Wansan, what's the name of this dish? Shen Wansan a look, this is deliberately embarrassing me to find fault with me! To know that Zhu and his homophones were taboo at that time, how could Shen Wansan name the trotters? Shen Wansan thought for a moment and replied, "This dish is thirteen thousand hooves".
Although Shen Wansan cleverly evaded this question, Zhu Yuanzhang finally failed to let him go, and Shen Wansan was exiled. Can only say that Zhu Yuanzhang is too stingy and Shen Wansan is too ignorant of convergence.
