It is better to take less of this kind of errand in the future, and let the boss do it himself...

.......

And just as Ying Zheng was once again satisfied with Fusu's policies...

Outside Xianyang City...

A horse was galloping, and on its back lay a pale-faced general in armor...

Before reaching Xianyang, just when he arrived at the camp, the general couldn't hold on any longer and fell off his horse...

As it happened, Wang Ben was inspecting the camp at this time, and suddenly saw a familiar figure lying not far away, so he hurried forward...

Take a closer look....

"Zhang Han?"

Zhang Han was in a very bad condition at the moment. His face was pale, his body was soaked, and he was shaking all over...

"General Zhang?"

Wang Ben called out...

As if hearing the call, Zhang Han forced himself to open his eyes...

"Meet...meet the...the eldest master!"

After saying this, Zhang Han fell down...

When Wang Ben saw this situation, he became anxious.

After all, they are colleagues. I can’t let Zhang Han die in front of me!

Although I don't know what Zhang Han did, but judging from what he said before he fell into a coma, he must have been commissioned by the eldest son...

"Someone, come! Send the doctor here! Carry General Zhang to my room and let the doctor treat him well!"

After giving the order, Wang Ben jumped on his horse and said, "I will go to Xianyang, Wang Fu! You take care of the camp!"

"It's the general!"

.......

Wang Ben rode his horse and soon entered the palace...

"Where's the eldest son?"

"General, the young master is taking a nap."

"this...."

Wang Ben was hesitating whether to go in, and Fusu was awakened by Wang Ben's voice in the room...

"Who's out there?"

"My Lord, it's General Wang Ben!"

"Okay, come in."

Wang Ben pushed the door open and walked in...

Fusu stretched and got up from the bed...

"General Wang, are you here? Is there something wrong in the camp?"

Fusu couldn't help but be curious. At this time, it was not yet time for Wang Ben to report on his daily life. Why did he enter the palace half a day early? Something was wrong...

"No, Master, it's General Zhang Han."

"Zhang Han? He's back?"

A glimmer of surprise flashed across Fusu's eyes...

"What about others?"

Wang Ben understood what was going on. As expected, Zhang Han was ordered by the eldest son to do the job.

"My Lord, I just ran into General Zhang Han when I was inspecting the camp. He is in a very bad condition and fainted at the entrance of the camp. We don't know whether he is alive or dead. I have asked the medical officer to treat him, but we don't know his current condition..."

"not good!"

Fusu's expression suddenly changed.

"What's wrong, sir?"

Wang Ben looked at Fusu, whose expression suddenly changed, in astonishment...

"Ugh."

Fusu slapped his forehead and said, "It's my fault. I forgot to tell him. Zhang Han was ordered by me to go to the land of Baiyue in Lingnan. Now it seems that he has been affected by the miasma and has contracted malaria."

"Malaria...Malaria?"

Wang Ben was dumbfounded...

He is not a medical officer, but the name of malaria is well-known to him. After years of marching, he turns pale at the mention of the word malaria!

Because in this era, malaria is almost incurable...

"Alas, I never thought that Zhang Han would die for his country at such a young age. Sir, you don't have to blame yourself. After all, the Lingnan area is dangerous. Even if you warn him, it will be of little use. Perhaps, this is Zhang Han's fate..."

"Die for the country? Donate for what?"

"Sir, didn't you say he had malaria? Malaria has no cure..."

"Who said there is no cure? The reason why there was no cure before was because I did not take any action. Now that Zhang Han has been ordered by me to go to Baiyue, I cannot just watch him die."

"Someone, come and find some Artemisia argyi for me!"

After saying this, Fusu thought for a while, found a blank bamboo slip, picked up a brush and started to draw...

After finishing the painting, he wrote the appearance of Artemisia annua on the side, and also wrote a bunch of aliases…

Although we don’t know what the name of this plant is at present, it is certain that Artemisia annua exists in Daqin.

The name of Artemisia annua was recorded in medical books in the Han Dynasty, but the Artemisia annua mentioned here is different from the Artemisia annua in later generations. The so-called Artemisia annua in later generations cannot extract artemisinin, but the one that can truly extract artemisinin and treat malaria is Artemisia huang.
