What he originally wanted to mention were actually the farewell messages he wrote in the bamboo grove courtyard not long ago.
At the time, because he was somewhat intent on 'seeking death', he left no way out for himself and gave all the chances to Xiao Qian'er.
So, when bidding farewell to 'Ink-colored Zhu Yourong', the farewell messages inevitably became somewhat sentimental and self-indulgent.
He imitated the ancients and wrote something called "A Letter to Fellow Daoist Yourong".
The last sentence in it was:
"Fellow Daoist Yourong, thou shalt not remain overly attached to certain this or that... or a certain person stubbornly.
I now take these words as my final farewell to thee."
However, later, Zhao Rong came back to life from near death, turning danger into safety. Looking back on these 'final farewell messages' now, he finds them more and more embarrassing.
