Zhenwu began to learn painting at the age of eighteen or nineteen. When he was young, he traveled to Hangzhou and Xing Wu to enjoy the scenery of Taihu Lake. Vision and insight, the true mountains and waters of nature, inspired his creative inspiration. At the age of sixty-eight, Zhenwu lived in Chunbo Guest House in Jiaxing (now downtown Jiaxing) and wrote Zhu Mo. When I met a friend in Jingyan Temple, I fell in love with Buddhism and called myself "Missami". Four years later, he returned to Tang Wei and wrote an inscription at the place where he died: "Plum Blossom Pagoda and Monks". The tomb is beside Meihua Temple.
His works, poems and calligraphy are mostly about fishermen, ancient trees and bamboo stones, and he is good at painting landscapes and plum blossoms. Cursive calligraphy is Gong Guang, a landscape teacher, Dong Yuan. It is huge and unique. It is dominated by vigorous brushwork, supplemented by vigorous brushwork, and has a boundless and gloomy atmosphere. He wrote bamboo well, studied under Li Li, and wrote ink bamboo in his later years. Mozi Zongwentong is another big family after Wentong. Good use of ink, dripping picturesque, is the crown of Yuan people. Part-time ink flower, but also photo. Cover the painting with bamboo, and cover the town with bamboo. Although his paintings can't be taken away, he can only throw them away with good paper and pen, and he can be happy as he pleases. The style of poetry is simple and exciting, with sincere feelings. It often uses comparison to express its feelings, which is close to Tao Qian's poetic style, with dull appearance and depressed heart. Calligraphy can combine the strengths of Wang Xizhi and Huai Su. Each painting is often inscribed with poems, lines or grass, and the pen and ink are dripping, and the poems, books and paintings set each other off. At that time, the number was "three unique". His painting style has a great influence on the development of landscape painting in Ming and Qing Dynasties. He is as famous as Wang Meng, Huang and Ni Zan, and is called.
According to legend, Zhen Wu Ben and Qian Sheng lived near the gate, and many people from all directions wanted to paint with gold and silk, but the gate of Wu succeeded. The wife kept laughing. Said, "Not in twenty years." The consequences are as they say.
Zhenwu's deeds are included in Painting History Society, Qinghe Calligraphy and Painting Boat, Liu Yanzhai's Notes, Rong Tai Collection and Cangluo Collection.

Its wind and bamboo carvings are displayed in Yuyanlou, Nanhu, Jiaxing, and its eight bamboo tablets and cursive heart sutra tablets are displayed in Jiashan Meihua Temple. There are also two volumes of "Mei Daoren Ink", which are poems and inscriptions compiled by later generations.
Zhenwu loves Mei very much. Plum trees are planted around his home, and the name is "Meihua Temple". Because there is an oak forest in the house, the study is also called the "oak room".
