Pei Jingyi suddenly seized the Imperial Physician's hand, his voice urgent, "Help... help me!"
The Imperial Physician shook his head, sighing, "Fourth Prince, your injuries are truly severe, and I really am out of options."
"No, that won't do, I must ascend the throne and become Emperor, I will not allow such a thing to happen." Pei Jingyi's voice was hoarse and grating.
The Imperial Physician looked at his frenzied state, hesitated for a moment, and then still advised, "Fourth Prince, although I am well-versed in pharmacology, where in this world is there a miracle cure that can mend severed continuity? If such a thing truly existed, it would've made its way to the market long ago and become a rare commodity."
"No! This is impossible, I don't believe it! I am still young, my whole life can't be ruined because of this."
The Imperial Physician shook his head and exhaled deeply, "I have done all that I can, the rest is up to fate."
