Chapter 234 Falling Off Horse

Liu Chuanbin glanced at Gong Chang'an, who was looking at him from the upstairs window with his arms crossed, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Shut up! This is my horse, what's wrong with riding it?"

He then took the reins into his own hand and shouted, "This is a beast I bought with my own money, so I should ride it and beat it!"

As he spoke, he kicked the horse's belly twice.

The horse was already agitated, and when he treated it this way, it immediately went berserk.

Suddenly, he raised his front leg and flung Liu Chuanbin off.

Then it kicked wildly and charged out like a madman.

Liu Chuanbin was thrown to the ground like a dead dog, and by sheer coincidence, the horse's left hind leg stepped on his right arm.

He screamed in agony and fainted, also losing control of his bladder due to diarrhea.

The attendants panicked and rushed over, disregarding the mess, to lift him up.

The horse ran a short distance before calming down and standing obediently by the roadside.

Liu Chuanbin's feet were stained with leopard urine, so the horse was naturally afraid of the smell.

But once he leaves and can no longer smell that scent, the horse becomes docile.

But at this moment, the Liu family's attendants no longer cared about the horses. They carried Liu Chuanbin and rushed to the nearest clinic.

The people upstairs also heard the commotion. When they looked out the window, they saw that Liu Chuanbin had already been lifted up.

"What happened?" everyone wondered. "Did he fall off his horse?"

"Chang'an and I will go take a look," Qiao Ziyu said, standing up. "Too many people going will only cause trouble."

The two of them then arrived at the clinic, where Liu Chuanbin was screaming in pain, and several people were holding him down.

His right arm was broken by the horse, and he was also urinating profusely, filling the entire clinic with a stench.

Qiao Ziyu nearly suffocated from the stench, but he had no choice but to endure it and step forward.

"Is Young Master Liu's injury easy to treat? If it's really not working, let's give him some anesthetic powder! Otherwise, the pain is really bad."

"Yes, yes, Young Master Qiao is right. Quickly give our master some anesthetic so he doesn't suffer so much pain." The attendants were all sweating profusely. They knew they had really messed up this time, and the Prince would skin them alive when they got back.

Of course, someone had already gone back to report the news; failing to report such a major event in a timely manner would only compound the crime.

After Qiao Ziyu and Gong Chang'an found out about the injuries, they couldn't stay any longer, since they were just kids and couldn't really help.

After leaving the clinic, Qiao Ziyu took a few deep breaths and said to Gong Chang'an, "This time, the Liu family's daughter is going to have a long time to recover from her injury. She won't be able to go to school for a while, and we probably won't see her again until next year."

"He's probably just having bad luck today," Gong Chang'an said with a casual smile. "Did he forget to check the almanac before he went out?"

"To be honest, we are very fortunate to have the two young masters here today," Qiao Ziyu said, shaking his head. "Otherwise, all of our families would have suffered the consequences. The Liu family is notoriously unreasonable, and now that their manhood is injured, those of us at the table will inevitably be targeted. If it weren't for the two young masters, the Liu family would definitely have come to our families to cause trouble."

Qiao Ziyu wasn't exaggerating at all; the Liu family's arrogance and domineering attitude had been going on for quite some time.

Although they were from a noble family, some of their manners were not as generous as those of poor families.

Many people can't afford to offend them, so they just avoid them.

Qiao Ziyu and the others usually kept their distance from Liu Chuanbin.

Someone once privately made an analogy: the Liu family is like a royal dog, fawning and groveling before their master, practically licking his feet. But towards families of lower status, they act condescendingly.

They lost their appetite for food and drink when they got back upstairs, and quickly finished their meal.

Ying Bai felt a little guilty and said, "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have accepted his invitation. Although this situation has nothing to do with us, I still feel a little bad."

Ying Tong didn't care and laughed, "His horse should be killed too, it dared to throw its master off balance. Liu Chuanbin has never liked reading, so this is a good opportunity for him to stay home and rest for a year or two."

By the way, I don't know if he keeps cats, so I'll give him mine.

Ying Bai didn't know anything about the cat, so he casually said, "No matter how good a pet is, you can't keep it if it hurts someone."

Unexpectedly, these words struck a chord with Ying Tong, who was naturally displeased.

But no one noticed this except for Gong Chang'an.

Everyone went downstairs. Ying Bai said he was going to see Liu Chuanbin. Although Ying Tong didn't say anything, she went over too.

Feng Tianzhu and the others followed along to see what Liu Chuanbin was going to do.

Gong Bao'an stood on the steps and asked Gong Chang'an, "Fourth Brother, are you able to go home today?"

“It’s not convenient today,” Gong Chang’an said, putting his hand on his shoulder. “No one should bully you at school this time.”

"Fourth Brother, Liu Chuanbin snatched and ate the pill you gave me," Gong Baoan whispered. "Could his diarrhea be related to that?"

"How could he have eaten it? You can't drink alcohol after eating this." Gong Chang'an also lowered his voice and said, "But since it has already happened, we have no choice but to keep our mouths shut and not tell anyone. The Liu family is not easy to deal with, and it would be bad if they blamed us for this."

Gong Baoan nodded vigorously: "I know, Fourth Brother, I won't tell anyone. He deserves it. Who told him to steal our things? It's not like we wanted to harm him."

Gong Chang'an nodded: "Yes, this is what they mean by 'those who do many unrighteous deeds will surely perish'."

Gong Baoan was unaware that Liu Chuanbin's current predicament was entirely caused by Gong Chang'an, and of course, Gong Chang'an wouldn't tell him.

Afterwards, everyone dispersed, and Gong Chang'an followed the two princes back to the palace.

After Liu Chuanbin's attendant returned and reported the news, the Liu family was shocked and rushed over.

When they arrived, Gong Chang'an and the others had already left.

All I saw was Liu Chuanbin lying there, half-dead and stinking.

"My son, how are you feeling now?" Liu Chuanbin's mother, Wei, hugged her son and cried. "He was fine when he went out today, how did he get injured like this?!"

"Mother...it hurts so much..." Liu Chuanbin's face was pale with pain. "Please take me back!"

"Alright, alright, I'll take you back right away. Don't be afraid. I've already gone to the palace to fetch the imperial physician. He'll give you a thorough examination and make sure you don't develop any lasting health problems," Madam Wei said hurriedly. "Don't worry, everything's fine now."

Liu Chuanbin felt that he was extremely unlucky today, and he had never been so unlucky in his life.

He naively thought that, as the saying goes, after the worst comes the best, and after this incident, things would surely be much better in the future.

Little did they know that an even greater calamity was yet to come.

After bringing her son home, Madam Wei inquired about the details of the incident.

Hearing that they were seated at the same table as the two princes, they couldn't do anything even if they were resentful.

But he still sent people to smash the clinic to pieces, because the doctor had made Liu Chuanbin faint three times from the pain while treating his injuries.
