Thinking again... During the Great Yu Dynasty, Zhong Lianshan, though often lacking, had true intentions to save the nation. Now, under the Great Wu Dynasty, traitors rule, even worse than before. The heart can't help but mourn.
He deeply feels a similarity in fate with Zhong Lianshan.
As time flows, his sense of mourning grows even stronger, his emotions complex to the extreme. With no way to relieve, he contemplated painting to dispel his gloom, hiding all his feelings in the painting. Thus came the "Sword Bamboo Welcoming Snow Painting."

As Wen Caishang said, no different than before.
