"Why didn't you kill me earlier? If you had, you wouldn't have had to harbour such evil schemes against your mother
"What about my mother?" Qian Long asked, turning pale
"So you know everything?"
"No, not everythingMaster Yu said the Empress Dowager knew he had helped you and had asked you to repay him, but that you were still unwilling to part with the silverYou have mountains of moneyThree million taels should be nothing to youBut you insist on being petty

"What have I to be afraid of? I doubt if you would dare to kill me," said Wen
