洪武初，以供役為安福丞張禧所辱，仕貆憤，益力學。 Early in the Hongwu reign, while performing corvée labor he was humiliated by Zhang Xi, assistant magistrate of Anfu; stung by the insult, Shihuan threw himself even harder into his studies.

辱仕貆者張禧，適調丞瓊山，以屬吏謁，大慚怖。 Zhang Xi, who had once humiliated him, happened to be transferred to assistant magistrate of Qiongshan and came to pay his respects as a subordinate; he was overcome with shame and fear.
