Chapter 2291: Chapter 2288: Injured

Anyway, most of the soldiers are much better at riding skills than he is. In his view, even though he’s among the top in the whole camp, he still hasn’t passed, which shows how high the requirements to pass the riding skills test must be.

He was itching to participate, so he chose a track and ran to join the training.

The result...

Zhou Tianqi was carried back.

He was extremely unlucky. For some reason, the horse got spooked before he had even soaked for a while, and then he fell off the horse. If it weren’t for a soldier training alongside him saving him,

he might have been paralyzed directly.

This time, he broke a rib, and his butt hurt so much that he needed good rest, at least for ten days to half a month.

Chu Heng received the news and was somewhat speechless.

After investigating the matter, he learned that it was because Zhou Tianqi didn’t know the Cavalry Battalion would place substances that stimulate the horses on several tracks.

Once the horses smell it, they go wild. This is part of the training.

When Zhou Tianqi went in, the accompanying soldier had told him, but he was too excited to hear clearly and foolishly chose a track with fewer people, which led to the accident.

Chu Heng returned to the capital early that afternoon.

He sent medicinal herbs and went to visit Zhou Tianqi personally with him.

When Chu Heng arrived, Zhou Tianqi was flipping through military books, lying on the bed unable to move, looking somewhat pitiful.

"Lord Chu?" Zhou Tianqi heard the voice and hurriedly tried to sit up.

Chu Heng: "Alright, just lie down."

Zhou Tianqi touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Do you know why you fell off now?" Chu Heng asked.

"I know." Zhou Tianqi felt a bit guilty, didn’t dare to look at Chu Heng; frankly, this time it was solely his fault and had nothing to do with Chu Heng. Yet, this time, clearly, he had brought trouble upon him.

"Well, Lord Chu, Xiang City contacted me; they came to drive a wedge between us and even brought a doctor to examine me. Seeing that my injury wasn’t serious enough to keep me bedridden, you can’t imagine how disappointed he was. That old fox, really thought I didn’t know what he was thinking."

"Knowing your situation isn’t serious, they’ll restrain subsequent actions quite a lot. For these days, you just need to recuperate. However, you should only need three to five days before you can start handling some documents. It’s tough." Chu Heng said.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tianqi’s eyes widened as he accused him: "Lord Chu, you are too cold. I’m injured, and I still have to help you handle official business. Can’t you let me rest at home a few days longer?"

"The capable should do more." Chu Heng didn’t feel there was any exploitation in his words at all, and after consulting with Zhou Tianqi, he got up and left.

Once he left, a servant boy who was taking care of Zhou Tianqi entered, saw fresh blood seeping from his wound again, shouted exaggeratedly: "Sir, is your wound torn again? I’ll fetch the doctor to bandage it anew."

"Lord Chu is too much. You’re injured, yet he deliberately visits. Sir, you shouldn’t have gone to the camp, getting injured so badly." The servant boy muttered complaints.

Zhou Tianqi glanced at him twice and then darkened his face: "Shut up, hurry and find someone to look after me, tell the doctor to give me the best medicine and make me get better in the shortest time!"

"Yes, sir, I will go immediately." The servant boy was reprimanded into trembling and quickly ran out.

After the person left,

Zhou Tianqi returned to normal, muttering softly: "Being injured yet needing to act, it’s truly excessive..."
