    A Ming Dynasty hellish joke—I thank you on behalf of my entire family. The story goes that after Zhu Yuanzhang established his capital in Nanjing, he was in high spirits and rode his imperial carriage to the home of Shen Wansan, the richest man in the country. Shen Wansan, of course, offered him a warm welcome. At this time, a dish of braised pork hock was served. Zhu Yuanzhang took one look and thought it was quite good, melting in his mouth. He asked Shen Wansan, "Old Shen, what is the name of this dish?" Shen Wansan calmly knelt down and replied, "Your Majesty, this is braised pork hock. Because each pork hock is strictly selected, each weighs exactly eight jin and eight liang (approximately 4.8 Catties), not an ounce more or less. Therefore, it is also called 'Pork Weighing Eight'." Upon hearing this explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, "How could there be such a reckless person in the world?" However, to maintain imperial dignity, he remained expressionless. Seeing the emperor's indifference, Shen Wansan felt he hadn't been enthusiastic enough. So he continued, "Your Majesty, look, the fat of this 'Zhu Chongba' is rich but not greasy, and the fat of this pork knuckle is also called 'pig fat,' these are rare and top-quality cuts." Zhu Yuanzhang's face had already turned quite ugly. The quick-witted Lady Shen immediately stepped in to smooth things over. Lady Shen knelt down abruptly and said, "Shen Wansan is ungrateful and doesn't know how to speak properly, Your Majesty, please don't be offended. This pork knuckle is called 'Zhu Wusi' because it's fed only on the new shoots of water hyacinths cut on the fourth day of the fifth lunar month each year." Zhu Yuanzhang, enraged, slammed his chopsticks down. A nearby eunuch, sensing trouble, quickly signaled to Lady Shen. The quick-witted Lady Shen immediately understood. She stood up, leaned over the pork knuckle, and sniffed it. Then she said, "Your Majesty, our family's rule is not to lean over the food to smell it, but this pork knuckle is an exception. We can blow on it with one hand and smell it. We call it 'Pig-Smell-Gathering.'" Zhu Yuanzhang, furious, had his guards draw their swords. Lady Shen, still quick-witted, finally understood and loudly proclaimed, "Your Majesty, please calm down! It was a misunderstanding. This isn't actually a pork knuckle, it's Wan San's trotter!" Shen Wan San, kneeling nearby, was displeased and quickly shouted, "You woman's prejudice! This isn't my trotter, it's not mine, it's 'pig's trotter,' 'pig's trotter,' this is 'pig's trotter' pork knuckle!" Standing to the side, the fourth prince, Zhu Di, could no longer bear it and quickly said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Father, this family is extremely rebellious, daring to disrespect the imperial majesty. I suggest that their entire family be executed, their nine generations skinned alive and displayed to the public. Even that wouldn't be enough; I truly hope they can be executed by slow slicing." Shen Wansan was terrified and hurriedly said, "This humble one doesn't know how I offended Your Majesty. I am willing to die. But I also want to say that pig feed is very expensive now, so 'pigs are expensive,' 'pigs are expensive,' you can't just kill my pigs."
