世祖在東宮，於玄圃宴會朝臣。 While the future Emperor Wu was still Heir Apparent, he feasted court officials in the Dark Garden.

文季數舉酒勸淵，淵甚不平，啓世祖曰：「沈文季謂淵經爲其郡，數加淵酒。」 Wenji repeatedly urged Yuan to drink; Yuan was deeply displeased and reported to the Heir Apparent, "Shen Wenji says that Yuan once served as magistrate in his home commandery and keeps pressing wine on him."

文季諱稱將門，因是發怒，啓世祖曰：「褚淵自謂是忠臣，未知身死之日，何面目見宋明帝？」 Wenji resented being called a man of a general's house and in anger reported to the Heir Apparent, "Chu Yuan calls himself a loyal minister—when the day of his death comes, with what face will he meet Emperor Ming of Song?"

世祖笑曰：「沈率醉也。」 The Heir Apparent laughed and said, "Shen is drunk."
