Olives, Wine and Honey at the river

General Yu send a small envoy (30 men) to the court of Empress Himiko of Wa (ancient Japan). The aim was to negotiate about the military presence of Wa in Silla. In the Imperial Capital of Wa the Korean envoy received permission to install a small embassy, right next to the embassy of Baekje and China. The palace of the Empress was located hidden in the woods, just outside of the capital. The area around the property was heavily guarded by hundreds of soldiers. The ambassador of Silla was ordered by both General Yu and King Naehae Isageum of Silla to spy on the weak government of Wa (and if needed to bribe client kingdoms and chiefdoms in the region). Lady Eunyeong (a tribute slave girl who - on command of Himiko - served on the Roman embassy in Silla for 3 years) received the news about the plans of Silla. She informed her master about it. Consequently, she was entrusted to manage the palace while the Empress and half of her servants moved to another accommodation in a far removed town. This was done in secret and only few statesmen knew about it. Meanwhile Eunyeong exploits her advantage, at the palace and the capital. She goes so far that she even takes some state matters in her own hands. She is aided by Woohyoun.
