Zhang Bin knew that Cao Huachun must have asked him to write to see his skills, and he did not show his practice of hard pen calligraphy in his previous life, but just wrote a famous sentence seriously in pure regular script.

"The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy."

These two sentences are from the famous literary scholar Fan Zhongyan of the Northern Song Dynasty "The Story of Yueyang Tower", which can be described as popular, and Cao Huachun naturally knows it.

Seeing this famous sentence, he admired Zhang Bin even more.

Because he knows that people have habits, such as eating, walking, reading, and writing.

If a person is romantic, then what he writes casually is definitely a flurry of words.

If a person is indifferent to fame and fortune, then what he writes casually is likely to be idyllic.

If a person pursues enjoyment, then he should write sentences with flowers.

As soon as he wrote it, it was just such a sentence, which proved that Zhang Bin had the heart of worrying about the country and the people.

Of course, there is a premise for this.

The premise is that Zhang Bin did not do it deliberately, but wrote it habitually.

He thinks that Zhang Bin can't do it deliberately, because it doesn't work to show this in front of him, he is just a eunuch who treats crimes.

Now Wei Zhongxian can be said to be in full swing, the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, he can't even get up with the idea of turning the tables, in his opinion, he is finished, and it is the best ending to die in the Nandu Palace, what is the use of Zhang Bin acting in front of him?

Therefore, he believes that Zhang Bin did not do it deliberately, but from his heart.

Of course, Zhang Bin did it deliberately, he was hinting to Cao Huachun that he was a good official who worried about the country and the people.

After Cao Huachun carefully read the words he wrote, he couldn't help but nod and praise: "Well, it's a very standard test-taking body, and the miscellaneous family can't find a little fault, Master Zhang's imperial examination ranking should not be low, right?" ”

Zhang Bin hurriedly said modestly: "It's been awarded, it's been awarded, that is, it's a second-class twenty-five, and you can't even enter the Hanlin Academy." ”

When Cao Huachun heard this, he couldn't help sighing: "Alas, with your age, the twenty-five top two are already tall enough, and it stands to reason that you should enter the Hanlin Academy to continue studying, and it is a good thing done by this traitor, hum, exclude dissidents and do nonsense!" ”

He has a prejudice against Wei Zhongxian, so he thinks that this little thing is also done by Wei Zhongxian, in fact, Zhang Bin's failure to enter the Hanlin Academy also has a certain relationship with the Donglin Party, and it is not all a good thing done by the eunuch party.

Of course, he won't break it, the so-called common hatred of the enemy, Cao Huachun can see him as a comrade-in-arms who was also persecuted by the eunuchs, so naturally it couldn't be better.

He pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then pretended to be worried about the country and the people, and sighed: "Alas, I am afraid that I have no hope of entering the cabinet to worship the prime minister in this life, fame and fortune are secondary, and I only hate that I can't share my worries for the king, I can't contribute to the country, and I can't work for the people!" ”

When Cao Huachun heard this, he couldn't help but appreciate him even more, indeed, if he can't enter the cabinet, his impact on the court situation will be limited, even if he does it well, he can only benefit one party.

He couldn't help but comfort: "Lord Zhang, the time is also fate, on the occasion of the traitor in power, he can't enter the cabinet, maybe it's a good thing, alas, it's better not to talk about this, learn calligraphy, learn calligraphy." ”

After that, he picked up another pen, took out a blank piece of paper, and copied the words written by Zhang Bin, but he used Yan Ti Kaishu.

After writing one, he did not stop to explain immediately, but continued to pull out a blank piece of paper, brushed and copied the words written by Zhang Bin again, this time, he used willow script.

After writing these two, he put down the brush and introduced: "Most of the beginners practice calligraphy and willow body, the so-called Yan muscles and willow bones, Yan body is vigorous, willow body is beautiful, each has its own strengths, you can go back and ponder it, I prefer that kind of font, next time we will learn advanced calligraphy, okay?" ”

When Zhang Bin heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Thank you Mr. Zixu for your advice, I will figure it out after I go back." ”

After that, he picked up the two manuscripts written by Cao Huachun, dried them carefully, folded them carefully, and carefully put them in his arms, and then ordered someone to come in and collect the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

After the table was cleaned up, Zhang Bin immediately said generously: "What does Mr. like to eat, just order it, just take it as a thank you gift, okay?" ”

When Cao Huachun heard this, he was not polite, and directly ordered a few dishes he liked.

Zhang Bin saw that there were not many dishes, so he asked Wang Chengen to order a few of his favorite foods, and then gave up.

About a quarter of an hour later, the wine and food began to be served one after another, and under Zhang Bin's diligent persuasion, Cao Huachun quickly drank slightly.

At this time, Zhang Bin began to talk about interesting things from his childhood, mainly memories of playing with several brothers.

Cao Huachun was really very involved and chatted with Zhang Bin happily.

In the end, Cao Huachun was drunk again, and when he talked about the third and fourth brothers who died, he even left tears, and when he was leaving, he was still talking about his eldest brother and second brother.

The second meeting ended like this, and after this time, Cao Huachun had already regarded Zhang Bin as a good friend who had nothing to say.

In other words, can two people who don't know each other become friends quickly?

If it is a normal situation, it is naturally unlikely, but if it is deliberate, it is extremely likely.

Because, there is a knack for making friends, and the key is to do what you like.

For example, Cao Huachun, he dared to sell his calligraphy and paintings, and was naturally extremely confident in his calligraphy and painting skills, at this time, Zhang Bin did what he liked, humbly asked him to teach calligraphy and painting skills, and the two naturally soon had a common language, plus he hated Wei Zhongxian, missed his brothers at home, Zhang Bin said one by one according to his meaning, and the two naturally chatted more and more speculatively.

Of course, not everyone can do what they like.

Some people are humble and courteous, and they are broad-minded, and when they communicate with others, they do what they like, naturally, and they are not reluctant at all.

Some people are arrogant and domineering, self-respecting, and when communicating with others, they have to fight for everything to win or lose, and it will be difficult to let this kind of person vote for others.

Therefore, in this world, some people know each other all over the world, and there are friends everywhere, but some people are hated by everyone, and they can't find a friend to talk to, so you can't blame others, you can only find the reason in your personal character.

Like Zhang Bin, whether in his previous life or in this life, he is not the kind of person who is arrogant and domineering, even if he does not do it deliberately, he is humble and polite, and he is broad-minded, these basic qualities are still there, and he is not reluctant to do what he likes.

Cao Huachun, how to say it, according to historical records, he is really an out-and-out good person.

His power in the Chongzhen Dynasty can be said to be on par with Wei Zhongxian's power in the Tianqi Dynasty, but he has never persecuted a person, at least, in historical records, he has done good things!

Of course, such a person is indeed a bit inappropriate to be the commander of Dongchang, because, Dongchang is a knife in the emperor's hand, whoever the emperor wants to kill, he has to go up and slaughter people, mercy, for a Dongchang admiral, is not a good quality.

However, this is not a good thing for Zhang Bin, no matter what position Cao Huachun will hold in the future, Zhang Bin hopes that he will be a good person, because it is better to be friends with good people than with bad people.

If Cao Huachun is as cruel and vicious as Wei Zhongxian, Zhang Bin really doesn't dare to make friends, Wang An and Wei Chao are people who have great kindness to him, he is harmful, if he goes to make friends with this kind of person but is not in the same stream, he may be killed in minutes!
