Because Zhu Yuanzhang thought this method was too cruel, he tied up the chef's son to scare him and told him not to cook this dish again. Although Zhu Yuanzhang has always been famous for his cruelty, his feeling of getting calves is reflected in this dish. It is said that the story is like this. Zhu Yuanzhang especially likes mutton. After becoming emperor, he had to satisfy his appetite, so he asked the chef to cook all kinds of delicious mutton.

The Chef Party had only a few dishes, and was criticized by Zhu Yuanzhang for not being able to come up with new tricks. So one day, the chef saw a cookbook in the country and made it and presented it to Zhu Yuanzhang. As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw the roast mutton, he found his way.

This roast lamb is a lamb less than a month old. It is locked up, lit around with charcoal fire, and slowly roasted with smoke from charcoal fire until it sweats, loses strength and dies. Then put the mutton in a steamer and steam it slowly, so that the mutton made is tender, smooth and delicious. But it is also cruel and can be confused with monkey brain, three cries and other dishes. As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw this dish, he thought of the painful struggle of the lamb before he died. He couldn't bear it, so he tied up the chef's son.

The cook was frightened and thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to kill his son. But the guards sent him a message saying that Zhu Yuanzhang would punish him for not seeing his son for three months to punish him for killing the lamb by such cruel means. Heaven has the virtue of good life, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who is famous for his cruelty, is no exception. It is a beautiful conversation to refuse to enjoy food and punish the chef for his cruelty.
