Dallas • Lagos • Singapore • Auckland • Tokyo TRUST • PEACE • DAILY GRACE morning prayer for anxiety and worry • Christian prayer for trusting God • overcoming fear about the future • finding peace one day at a time Matthew 6:34 (NIV) “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” There are times when tomorrow arrives long before it should. The mind begins thinking about next week, next month, or the next challenge that may be waiting somewhere ahead. Questions appear. Possibilities are imagined. Concerns quietly gather in the heart. Before long, people can find themselves carrying burdens that have not even happened yet. Many people wake up carrying that weight. Jesus understood something about the human heart that remains true today. We often try to solve tomorrow's problems while standing in today's grace. We attempt to carry responsibilities that have not yet arrived and worries that may never happen. Yet Christ gently invites us back to the present moment. He reminds us that God provides grace for today, strength for today, and peace for today. The future matters, but it does not need to dominate the present. God is already present in tomorrow before we arrive there. The Lord who will meet us then is the same Lord who is with us now. We are not asked to carry the whole journey at once. We are simply invited to walk faithfully with Christ today. Father, thank You for the gift of this day. Thank You that Your mercy is sufficient for this moment and that Your grace is enough for every challenge I may face. Jesus, help me release the worries that keep pulling my attention into tomorrow. Teach me to trust You more deeply and to rest in the knowledge that You are already holding the future. Holy Spirit, quiet anxious thoughts and calm every fear within me. Help me walk through today with confidence, knowing that God is faithful, present, and working even when I cannot yet see the outcome. Across the world, from Dallas to Lagos, from Singapore to Auckland and Tokyo, may anxious hearts find peace, burdened minds discover rest, and every listener experience the comfort of trusting God one day at a time.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningJeremiah 29:11 — There Is Still A Future Ahead Of You Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Atlanta • Lagos • Singapore • Christchurch • Tokyo HOPE • PURPOSE • FUTURE Christian prayer for hope and encouragement • trusting God's plans for your future • prayer for difficult seasons • finding purpose through Christ Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” There are seasons in life when the future can feel unclear. Plans change. Doors close. Expectations do not always unfold as we imagined. Sometimes people look ahead and struggle to see where hope is supposed to come from. Questions about tomorrow can quietly become burdens carried today. Many people understand that feeling. Life has a way of presenting moments that seem unfinished. Dreams may take longer than expected. Prayers may appear unanswered. Circumstances may remain uncertain. Yet Scripture repeatedly reminds us that God is able to see far beyond the limitations of our present situation. What feels delayed to us is not forgotten by Him. Jeremiah delivered these words to people living in a difficult season. They were facing uncertainty and challenges they never expected. Yet God spoke hope into their future. He reminded them that their story was not over and that His purposes had not been cancelled. That same truth remains powerful today. Your current chapter is not the final chapter. God is still writing the story. His plans remain greater than your fears, stronger than your disappointments, and larger than the obstacles standing before you. Father, thank You that my future rests securely in Your hands. Thank You that even when I cannot see the road ahead clearly, You remain faithful and trustworthy. Jesus, help me trust Your plans when circumstances seem uncertain. When disappointment tries to steal my hope, remind me that You are still working. Strengthen my faith and help me keep looking forward with confidence. Holy Spirit, fill my heart with fresh expectation today. Help me believe that God is able to open new doors, create new opportunities, and bring purpose out of every season. Replace fear with hope and uncertainty with confidence in Your promises. Across the world, from Atlanta to Lagos, from Singapore to Christchurch and Tokyo, may discouraged hearts find renewed hope, uncertain minds discover fresh confidence, and every listener experience the assurance that God still holds the future. Jesús, confío mi futuro a Ti. Jesus, entrego o meu futuro a Ti. Jesus, ipinagkakatiwala ko sa Iyo ang aking kinabukasan. Father, thank You that my future is safe with You. Amen.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningMatthew 11:28 — You Do Not Have To Start This Day Carrying Everything Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Dallas • Lagos • Singapore • Auckland • Tokyo REST • STRENGTH • PEACE morning prayer for weary hearts • Christian prayer for strength today • bringing burdens to Jesus • starting the day with God's peace  Matthew 11:28 (NIV) “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Some people wake up refreshed and ready for the day ahead. Others wake up already carrying concerns that never really left them during the night. Responsibilities, pressures, decisions, financial worries, family situations, and unanswered questions can all be waiting before the day has properly begun. Many people know exactly what that feels like. One of the dangers of modern life is that we become so accustomed to carrying heavy things that we stop noticing how tired we have become. We keep moving. We keep functioning. We keep pushing forward. Yet beneath the surface there can be a weariness that quietly grows heavier with each passing day. Jesus speaks directly into that reality. He does not tell weary people to simply try harder. He does not ask exhausted hearts to find more strength within themselves. Instead, He offers an invitation. He says, “Come to Me.” The answer to weariness is not greater striving. The answer is greater closeness to Christ. Father, thank You for the gift of a new day. Thank You that before I face a single challenge, Your presence is already with me and Your grace is already sufficient. Jesus, today I bring to You every burden that feels too heavy to carry alone. I place before You the concerns that occupy my thoughts and the responsibilities that seem overwhelming. Help me remember that I was never meant to carry everything by myself. Holy Spirit, fill my heart with peace as this day begins. Replace anxiety with trust, pressure with confidence, and weariness with renewed strength. Help me walk closely with Jesus and find rest in His presence throughout this day. Across the world, from Dallas to Lagos, from Singapore to Auckland and Tokyo, may weary hearts discover fresh strength, renewed peace, and the comfort that comes from drawing near to Jesus Christ. Jesús, hoy descanso en Ti. Jesus, hoje descanso em Ti. Jesus, nagpapahinga ako sa Iyo ngayon. Father, thank You that I do not have to carry this day alone. Amen.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningIsaiah 41:10 — Do Not Be Afraid, God Is Holding You Steady Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Houston • Lagos • Singapore • Wellington • Tokyo COURAGE • CONFIDENCE • TRUST Christian prayer for fear and anxiety • trusting God during uncertain times • finding courage through faith • prayer for strength and confidence  Isaiah 41:10 (NIV) “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” There are moments in life when uncertainty can feel louder than confidence. We may not know how a situation will unfold. We may not know what tomorrow will bring. Questions about family, health, finances, work, and the future can sometimes create a quiet fear that sits beneath the surface of daily life. Many people carry that feeling today. Fear often grows in the space between what we know and what we do not know. It tries to convince us that we are facing the future alone and that everything depends upon our ability to control what lies ahead. Yet God speaks directly into those fears with words of reassurance. He does not simply tell His people not to be afraid. He gives them a reason. His presence remains with them. The promise of Isaiah is not that life will always be simple. The promise is that God will strengthen, help, and uphold His people through whatever they face. The Lord is not standing at a distance watching our struggles. He is actively sustaining us through them. Father, thank You that Your presence remains constant even when life feels uncertain. Thank You that I never face today's challenges or tomorrow's questions without Your help. Jesus, when fear tries to steal my peace, help me remember Your promises. When uncertainty begins to cloud my thinking, remind me that You are still leading, still working, and still holding me securely in Your hands. Holy Spirit, fill my heart with courage today. Replace fear with trust, anxiety with peace, and uncertainty with confidence in God's faithfulness. Help me walk forward knowing that I am supported by Your strength and guided by Your wisdom. Across the world, from Houston to Lagos, from Singapore to Wellington and Tokyo, may hearts be strengthened by the assurance that God remains present, faithful, and able to hold His people steady through every season. Jesús, ayúdame a confiar en Ti hoy. Jesus, ajuda-me a confiar em Ti hoje. Jesus, tulungan Mo akong magtiwala sa Iyo ngayon. Father, thank You that Your strong hand is holding me steady. Amen.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningPhilippians 4:6–7 — Leave Your Worries With Jesus Before You Sleep Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Nashville • Lagos • Singapore • Auckland • Tokyo REST • PEACE • TRUST night prayer for anxiety and sleep • Christian bedtime prayer • leaving worries with Jesus • finding peace before sleep  Philippians 4:6–7 (NIV) “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God… will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” As this day comes to an end, there may still be thoughts competing for your attention. There may be concerns that remain unresolved, conversations you wish had gone differently, or questions that continue to linger in the background of your mind. The temptation is often to carry those things into the night and quietly rehearse them long after the day has finished. Many people know what that feels like. The mind becomes busy even when the world around us grows quiet. Yet the Apostle Paul offers a different path. Instead of carrying every worry alone, he encourages us to bring our concerns to God in prayer. He reminds us that peace is not found by controlling every outcome. Peace is found by placing our trust in the One who holds tomorrow securely in His hands. The peace of God is one of heaven's great gifts. It does not always remove every question immediately, nor does it guarantee that every answer arrives overnight. What it does provide is something precious: the assurance that God remains present, God remains faithful, and God remains at work even while we rest. Father, thank You for bringing me safely to the close of this day. Thank You for every moment of grace, every unseen protection, and every reminder that You have been with me throughout this journey. Jesus, tonight I place my worries into Your hands. I release the concerns that I cannot solve, the situations I cannot control, and the questions I cannot yet answer. Help me trust that Your wisdom is greater than mine and that Your care reaches further than I can see. Holy Spirit, quiet every anxious thought and calm every restless concern. Let the peace of Christ settle deeply within my heart. Help me sleep with confidence, knowing that I am loved, protected, and safely held by God. Across the world, from Nashville to Lagos, from Singapore to Auckland and Tokyo, may weary hearts find rest, anxious minds discover peace, and every listener experience the comfort that comes from leaving their worries with Jesus. Jesús, dejo mis preocupaciones en Tus manos. Jesus, deixo as minhas preocupações nas Tuas mãos. Jesus, iniiwan ko sa Iyo ang aking mga alalahanin.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningRomans 15:13 — Hope Is Still Alive, Even In Difficult Days Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Atlanta • Lagos • Brasília • Singapore • Christchurch HOPE • PEACE • CONFIDENCE Christian prayer for hope and encouragement • trusting God through difficult seasons • finding hope when life feels uncertain • prayer for strength and faith Romans 15:13 (NIV) “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” There are seasons when hope comes easily. Life feels manageable, prayers seem to be moving forward, and the future appears bright. There are other seasons when hope requires a more deliberate choice. Delays can test our patience. Disappointments can challenge our expectations. Unanswered questions can make the road ahead feel uncertain. Many people find themselves somewhere in that second season today. Yet one of the beautiful truths found in Scripture is that Christian hope is not built upon perfect circumstances. Hope is not dependent upon everything going according to plan. Hope is rooted in the character of God. It grows from the confidence that the Lord remains faithful even when we cannot yet see the full picture. The Apostle Paul speaks of God as the God of hope. That means hope is not something we manufacture through determination alone. It is something God graciously supplies. Through the presence of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, weary hearts can discover fresh confidence, renewed peace, and the courage to keep moving forward. Father, thank You that You remain faithful in every season of life. Thank You that Your promises remain true and Your goodness remains constant even when circumstances feel uncertain. Jesus, help me keep my eyes fixed upon You. When disappointment tries to weaken my confidence, remind me of Your faithfulness. When uncertainty clouds my thinking, help me trust that You are still leading and still working. Holy Spirit, fill my heart with fresh hope today. Let peace replace anxiety, confidence replace discouragement, and faith rise stronger than fear. Help me remember that my future rests securely in God's hands. Across the world, from Atlanta to Lagos, from Brasília to Singapore and Christchurch, may hearts be renewed by the hope that comes from knowing God remains faithful and His promises endure forever. Jesús, gracias por la esperanza que encuentro en Ti. Jesus, obrigado pela esperança que encontro em Ti. Jesus, salamat sa pag-asang matatagpuan ko sa Iyo.

Houston • Lagos • Singapore • Auckland • Tokyo REST • STRENGTH • COMFORT Christian prayer for overwhelmed people • prayer for stress and pressure • bringing burdens to Jesus • finding rest in God's presence Matthew 11:28 (NIV) “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” There are burdens that people can see, and there are burdens that remain hidden beneath the surface. Many people carry responsibilities that nobody else fully understands. They continue showing up, caring for others, working hard, paying bills, supporting family, and doing their best to keep moving forward. Yet behind the smile and the routine, there can be a quiet exhaustion that is difficult to put into words. The world often teaches us to carry more, manage more, and become stronger through our own efforts. Jesus offers something remarkably different. He invites weary people to come to Him. He does not ask us to pretend that everything is fine. He does not require us to have all the answers. He simply invites us to bring our burdens into His presence. That invitation remains just as powerful today as it was when those words were first spoken. The heart of Christ is still drawn toward tired people, worried people, and people who feel stretched beyond their limits. His compassion has not changed. His kindness has not diminished. His willingness to carry what we cannot carry remains the same. Father, thank You that I never have to face life's pressures alone. Thank You that Your love welcomes me even when I feel tired, overwhelmed, or uncertain. Jesus, today I bring my burdens to You. I place into Your hands the worries that have occupied my thoughts, the responsibilities that feel heavy, and the situations that seem beyond my control. Help me trust that Your strength is greater than my weakness and Your peace is greater than my anxiety. Holy Spirit, teach me how to rest in God's presence. Quiet the noise within my heart and remind me that I am not alone. Help me walk through this day with renewed strength, fresh peace, and deeper trust. Across the world, from Houston to Lagos, from Singapore to Auckland and Tokyo, may weary hearts discover the comfort, strength, and rest that are found in Jesus Christ.

Atlanta • Perth • Abuja • Santiago • Singapore TRUST • STABILITY • FUTURE HOPE evening prayer for trusting God with the future • Christian prayer for uncertain seasons • finding confidence in God's guidance • prayer for hope and stability Psalm 37:23–24 (NIV) “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.” As the day begins to draw to a close, it is natural to think about tomorrow. We reflect on what still needs our attention, what remains unfinished, and what may be waiting for us in the days ahead. Sometimes those thoughts arrive quietly. Other times they come carrying worry, uncertainty, or questions that seem difficult to answer. Many people spend a great deal of energy trying to hold tomorrow together before it arrives. Yet tomorrow has never belonged to us. It has always belonged to God. The Lord who carried you through today is already present in every moment of tomorrow. Nothing waiting ahead will surprise Him. No challenge will appear beyond His awareness. No step will be taken outside His care. That does not mean there will never be difficulties. The Scripture itself speaks of moments when we stumble. Yet it also reminds us that we are upheld by the hand of God. We may bend beneath life's pressures, but we do not face them unsupported. Father, thank You for every way You have guided me through this day. Thank You for Your faithfulness in moments I recognised and in moments I did not even see. Thank You that Your care extends beyond today and into every tomorrow. Jesus, help me release the future into Your hands. Where uncertainty creates worry, replace it with trust. Where questions remain unanswered, replace them with peace. Teach me to rest in the confidence that You are already preparing the way ahead. Lord, remind me that my security is not found in knowing everything that will happen. My security is found in knowing that You will be there when it does. Across the world, from Atlanta to Perth, from Abuja to Santiago and Singapore, may hearts find comfort in the assurance that God is holding tomorrow with the same faithfulness He has shown today.

We know exactly what is troubling us, and we can easily name the burden. At other times, the weight builds gradually. A responsibility here. A concern there. A difficult situation that stays unresolved. Before long, we find ourselves carrying far more than we realise. Many people begin the week determined to cope with everything on their own. They carry worries about family, concerns about finances, pressures at work, and questions about the future. They keep moving forward, but underneath the surface they are becoming tired. God's invitation is not to carry more. His invitation is to come closer. The Lord never intended us to walk through life relying only on our own strength. He knows the burdens we carry, the pressures we feel, and the concerns that sit quietly within our hearts. He is not asking us to pretend those things do not exist. He is inviting us to place them into His hands. Father, thank You that You care about every part of my life. Thank You that I do not have to carry today's burdens alone. Thank You that Your strength is greater than my weakness and Your peace is deeper than my worries. Jesus, help me release the things I have been trying to manage by myself. Where I feel stretched, bring strength. Where I feel anxious, bring peace. Where I feel discouraged, bring fresh hope. Lord, remind me today that Your shoulders are stronger than mine and Your wisdom is greater than my understanding. Help me walk forward with confidence, knowing that I am supported by Your love and sustained by Your grace. Across the world, from Houston to Brisbane, from Abuja to Manila and Bogotá, may weary hearts discover the comfort of God's presence and the strength that comes from placing every burden into His hands. Jesús, pongo mis cargas en Tus manos. Jesus, entrego os meus fardos a Ti. Jesus, ipinagkakatiwala ko sa Iyo ang aking mga pasanin. Father, thank You that I never carry life's burdens alone. Amen.

A conversation that needs to happen. A responsibility that feels heavy. A concern that continues to circle through our thoughts. A situation we wish we could fix but cannot control. Many of us carry far more than we realise. We carry expectations. We carry pressures. We carry worries about tomorrow while still trying to manage today. Yet God's invitation is wonderfully simple. You do not have to carry everything. You were never meant to. Father, thank You for caring about every part of my life. Thank You that nothing is too small for Your attention and nothing is too heavy for Your hands. Jesus, help me release what I have been holding too tightly. Where anxiety has settled, bring peace. Where pressure has built up, bring relief. Where fear of the future has grown, remind me that You are already there. Lord, teach me to trust You with the things I cannot control. Help me stop carrying burdens that belong in Your hands and instead walk through this day with greater peace and freedom. Across the world, from Chicago to Wellington, from Lagos to Singapore and Lima, may hearts discover the comfort of knowing that God's care is greater than every concern we carry. Jesús, entrego mis preocupaciones a Ti. Jesus, entrego as minhas preocupações a Ti. Jesus, inilalagay ko sa Iyo ang aking mga alalahanin.

Charlotte • Sydney • Manila • Buenos Aires • Nairobi HOPE • TRUST • PERSEVERANCE evening prayer for hope • Christian prayer when life feels uncertain • prayer for strength and encouragement • trusting God with the future Romans 15:13 (NIV) “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” As this day begins to draw towards its close, you may be looking back over moments that did not unfold as you hoped. Some prayers may still feel unanswered. Some situations may still seem unchanged. Some questions may still be waiting for clarity. It is often in these moments that hope can feel distant. Yet hope is not measured by what we can immediately see. Hope grows quietly. Hope grows steadily. Hope grows whenever we continue trusting God, even when the full picture remains hidden from view. Father, thank You for bringing me through another day. Thank You for the strength You have already provided, even in ways I may not have fully recognised. Thank You that Your work in my life continues, even when I cannot see every detail. Jesus, help me not to become discouraged by what has not yet happened. Help me not to lose heart over things that remain unresolved. Teach me to trust Your timing, Your wisdom, and Your faithfulness. Lord, where disappointment has settled, bring fresh hope. Where uncertainty remains, bring confidence. Where weariness has appeared, bring renewed strength. Across the world, many people are carrying concerns about tomorrow, about family, about finances, about health, and about the future. From Charlotte to Sydney, from Manila to Buenos Aires and Nairobi, may hearts be strengthened by the assurance that God is still working, still guiding, and still bringing hope into situations that seem unfinished.

What have you been carrying today? Perhaps it has been responsibility. Perhaps it has been worry. Perhaps it has been pressure that nobody else can see. Many people spend their days carrying emotional loads that were never meant to be carried alone. The weight builds quietly. The mind grows tired. The heart becomes weary. Yet Jesus offers a gentle invitation. Not to work harder. Not to try harder. But to come to Him and find rest. Father, thank You for bringing me through this day. Thank You for every unseen moment where Your grace sustained me, even when I did not realise it. Jesus, stay close beside me this evening. Help me release the burdens I was never meant to carry alone. Help me let go of pressure that does not belong to me. Help me trust You with the situations that remain unresolved. Lord, where disappointment lingers, bring comfort. Where stress remains, bring peace. Where weariness has settled into my heart, bring fresh strength. Across the world, many people are ending their day feeling emotionally tired and mentally drained. From Charlotte to Adelaide, from Wellington to Manila and Bogotá, may hearts discover tonight that Jesus still invites the weary, still welcomes the burdened, and still provides rest for those who come to Him.

We talk about the famous Wu Zetian, as well as Kings Munmu, Sinmun, and Hyoso in Silla.  These were the rulers at the same time that Uno no Sarara was overseeing things in Yamato.  Here we see a bit of tit for tat politics between Yamato and Silla.  We also get a tale of personal sacrifice from veterans of the Silla-Tang war against Baekje. For more notes and references, check out our blogpost page:  https://sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-149 Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo's Chronicles of Japan.  My name is Joshua and this is episode 149: Kings, Queen, and an Empress   Uno no Sarara and her son, Crown Prince Kusakabe, sat in court.  The trappings of the recent mourning period had been put aside with the recent burial of Uno's husband, Ohoama, and they were now preparing for Crown Prince Kusakabe's coronation.  However, the matter in front of them had nothing to do with that.  Instead, they listened to an official recounting of what had transpired on the peninsula.  The court had explicitly sent an envoy to Silla to inform them of Ohoama's death, but it took much longer than it should have for Norimaro and his party to return.  There had even been an envoy mission from Silla while they were away. As Uno no Sarara listened intently, she found it harder and harder to keep her emotions in check.  She listened as the story of the Yamato mission was told, and as she heard of how her messengers were treated—how they weren't even allowed to tell the Silla court their news all because someone in Silla had decided that they weren't appropriate ambassadors. Silla had finally come to learn of Ohoama's death, and the mission returned home, but this treatment was inexcusable.  These were not just Yamato's messengers, they were carrying the royal word of Queen Uno no Sarara, head of the state and de facto ruler as they mourned the loss of her husband and predecessor.  To have them kept waiting because of some invented protocol was an affront to the nation, but it was also an affront to her. This. Would. Not. Do...     Greetings, everyone!  Thank you once again for tuning in.  As you may recall, last episode we covered the ceremonies around the death and burial of Ohoama, aka Temmu Tennou, as well as the unceremonious death of Crown Prince Kusakabe, leading to the throne being taken by his mother, Queen Uno no Sarara, aka Jitou Tennou.  One aspect of everything that was going on was the relations with the continent.  This included missions from Yamato to the continent—especially those involved with communicating information about the changes in the Yamato court.  So this episode I thought we could look at some of the things we see in the record and go over where things sat with regards to the continent. First things first, let's brush up on where we left off.  Back in episode 140 we talked about how the Silla-Tang alliance had broken down.  With Baekje and Goguryeo both defeated, the Tang had set up commanderies to oversea captured territory in both kingdoms, and even though Emperor Tang Taizong had promised Silla suzerainty over Baekje, his successor, Gaozong, had not adhered to that agreement.  In response, and with the help of Goguryeo rebels, Kind Munmu of Silla had fought back against the Tang forces, eventually consolidating everything south of the Taedong river, approximating the extent of the modern country of South Korea. Meanwhile, Goguryeo rebels continued to trouble the Tang, and King Bojang set up by the Tang dynasty would eventually betray them, allying with the northern Malgal people.  They would continue to fight to restore their sovereignty.  With pressure from Silla and Goguryeo, the Tang commandery pulled back from Pyongyang to Liaoyang—effectively putting the mountainous regions at the head of the Korean peninsula between them and their enemies.  Silla control was de facto, but would not be recognized formally by the Tang dynasty until the early 8th century.  That didn't meant they were completely at odds, however.  Silla would resume diplomatic mission to the Tang, despite their territorial disagreements. Silla's King Munmu, who had pushed back against the Tang, was succeed by his son, known as King Sinmun.  Sinmun had been Crown Prince during the wars against Baekje and Goguryeo.  Much as Ohoama and Uno no Sarara had been doing on the archipelago, he was working to centralize royal authority in Silla. In 681, as Silla was still mourning the death of King Munmu, a rebellion broke out.  It was led by a high ranking Silla official, and father-in-law to Sinmun, Kim Humdol.  It was quickly put down, and Kim Humdol and other officials who were implicated were executed.  This was actually a golden opportunity for the new King Sinmun to help purge the court of any rivals or ministers with less than absolute dedication to his plan to centralize authority. I kind of get the feeling that, for all of the past conflicts between their nations, Sinmun, Ohoama, and Uno might have gotten along quite well.  However, that didn't stop the fact that they were rulers of rival nations, and while they may have had similar concepts of leadership, they also were focused on their own rule and authority. To that end, Sinmun also reached out to the Tang court with tribute missions, and in so doing was at least recognized by the Tang court, who enfeoffed him as King of Silla.  This appears to have been a bit of polite fiction, but that was how a lot of this operated, ultimately.  King Sinmun would have held power in Silla regardless of the Tang court's approval, but the fiction that the court had bestowed his authority no doubt provided some diplomatic benefits, and a context within which to operate on the international stage.  It also no doubt allowed for increased trade, bringing in exotic and high status items, which would have been useful for boosting approval ratings back home. King Sinmun ruled until his death in 691.  He was succeeded by his son, known as King Hyoso.  However, Hyoso was young—about 5 years old when he took the throne.  And so his mother, Queen Sinmok, acted as regent for much of his reign—right up until her death in 700.  Hyoso ended up reigning for a decade, until 702, meaning that he and his mother reigned throughout Uno no Sarara's period as sovereign in Yamato. Hyoso's reign saw continued progress towards centralization of authority, as well as improved relationships with the Tang court.  Silla maintained diplomatic ties and tribute missions, and the Tang court conferred recognition on Hyoso as the King of Silla, in return. Speaking of the Tang Court, Emperor Tang Gaozong passed away before Ohoama had, departing this world in 683.  However, for all that he was the emperor, he had not really been the one running things for some time.  Gaozong came to the throne at roughly 21 years of age, and throughout most of his reign he had to share power with others in the court.  Originally this meant high ranking minister, but there was also his wife, Wu Zhao, aka Wu Zetian.  Wu had been a consort under Tang Taizong, and then continued as a consort for Gaozong as well.  Then, in 655, she was officially made empress. In 660, Gaozong began to suffer from an unknown illness, characterized by headaches, dizziness, , and occasional seizures and loss of vision.  Some have suggested it was a stroke or some form of hypertension.  Either way, these symptoms would plague him for the rest of his reign, and so he began to delegate more and more authority to Wu Zhao, who would handle things on his behalf. Thus, Wu was effectively already running things by the time of Gaozong's death in 683.  At that point, she became the Empress Dowager, and her third son became emperor Zhongzong—at least in name.  Because Wu Zhao maintained all of the power and authority at court.  She was, in fact, the regent, and a mere six weeks after Zhongzong took the throne he was removed by his own mother.  It seems that Zhongzong, who came to the throne at the age of 28, was showing signs of being a little too much under the influence of his wife, Empress Wei.  In fact, he is said to have considered giving her the Empire.  And so Wu had him deposed and exiled.  She then had his younger brother made Emperor Ruizong, though still under Wu Zhao's term as regent. Ruizong was about 22 when he took the throne under his mother in 684.  He would continue to reign until 690, when he abdicated the throne in favor of his mother.  From that point on, Wu Zhao ruled as the sovereign for another 15 years, until the year 705, declaring it a return of the ancient Zhou dynasty.  In other words, for all of Uno no Sarara's reign in Yamato, another woman, Wu Zhao, sat atop the traditionally patriarchal seat of power in the Tang—and later Zhou—court. Wu Zhao is more commonly known to us, today, as Wu Zetian.  This comes from her final title as reigning monarch:  Zetian Dasheng Huangdi, or Heaven-following Great Holy Emperor.  She is often depicted as a ruthless and politically savvy ruler who usurped the throne through her feminine wiles and violence.  We see how she dethroned her own son to avoid him giving up the throne to his wife.  She is also said to have had another son killed because of her ambitions, and is even accused of killing her own daughter just to blame a rival at court.  She is also depicted performing plenty of other unflattering acts. Of course, it is worth noting that she was not the one to write her own history.  After her reign, her epitaph was inscribed by her own political rivals.   It is notable that she is the only Empress to be recognized as ruling in her own right in the entire history of China.  Certainly there were others who reigned as regents, and women with tremendous power and influence, but none of them really held the throne uncontested. Given the animosity of the authors who wrote about her reign, we have to take anything we hear about Wu Zhao with a bit of salt.  On the other hand, Tang dynasty imperial politics were ruthless, and you didn't get to the top because you had a charming demeanor.   While there is no doubt more than a little slander written into the history books, one only has to look at the men who ruled before and after her to wonder whether she really did anything that was so much better or worse than what they did.  Just keep that in mind as we go through some of what she was accused of. Now what we are told is that with her younger son, Emperor Ruizong, she was only nominally pretending to be regent.  She didn't bother to hide behind a screen with him out front and we are told she openly whispered answers and commands that Ruizong would immediately parrot.  Ruizong never moved into the imperial suites of the palace, which his mother maintained.  Ruizong didn't even attend imperial functions, and officials were not allowed to meet with him privately.  An uprising in Yang state was said to be in part because of her rule, and it was suggested that she should step aside and let her son truly rule to restore confidence, but she was having none of it and had those who suggested it arrested.  Later, she would institute post boxes around government buildings for people to snitch on those around them who might be disloyal, and she instituted secret police, who investigated various rumors and false accusations with torture, leading to numerous executions. In 685 she is said to have had an affair with a Buddhst monk, Huaiyi, who was then conferred with various honors.  Then, in 686, she offered to return the throne to Ruizong, but Ruizong, realizing that there was no way she would let go of power, saw it as a test of his obedience, and declined.  In 688 she summoned senior members of the Li Family, the family of the Tang emperors, under the pretense of making sacrifices to the spirit of the Luo river, which flowed through the Eastern Capital of Luoyang.  Several of the Princes of the Li house were worried that she was going to slaughter them all, Red Wedding style, if they showed up, in order to secure the throne to herself, and so they plotted to rebel, but coordination was not the greatest back then, and two princes rose up before the others were ready.  They were crushed, and many other members of the Li family were implicated, arrested, and forced to commit suicide.  In 690, she completely did away with any dissembling and declared a new dynasty—the Zhou dynasty—declaring herself Shengshen Huangdi, or Holy Divine Emperor of the Zhou dynasty.  And yes, this is the same Zhou as the ancient Zhou dynasty—she was apparently claiming descent from the ancient rulers of Zhou. Her son was thus deposed and she ruled uncontested from 690 until her death in705.  She would go by various names.  Three years in and she would add "Jinlun", or "Golden Wheel" to her title, referring to the Buddhist concept of a Chakravartin, or Golden Wheel Turning Monarch. This latter title came in part as she is said to have elevated the foreign religion of Buddhism over the native Taoist religion.  She is also said to have built numerous temples around the capital cities and elsewhere.  In 692, the rising power of the secret police appeared to have been halted.  One of the officials in charge, Lai Junchen, attempted to have a handful of officials executed for false accusastions.  He told them that if they confessed to the accusations, their lives would be spared, and so many of them confessed to the false accusations, but Junchen conspired to have them executed anyway.  One of the officials was none other than the famous Di Renjie.  Renjie wrote a petition on his blanket and then hid that with the laundry that he sent to his family when it was time to change from winter to summer robes.  His family found it and submitted the petition to Wu Zhao, who became suspicious of Junchen.  For his part, Junchen has submitted forged petitions from the prisoners, thanking Empress Wu for preparing to execute them. Other accusations against Junchen's methods came to light, and so Empress Wu interrogated the prisoners personally.  They all disavowed their confessions, and so Wu commuted their sentences from death to exile.  Junchen continued to operate until 697, but there seems to have been a notable decrease in the number of executions after that point.  He would eventually go too far, and planning to accuse the Li and Wu princes and princesses of treason, but they acted first and he ended up being executed.  Without Lai Junchen, the secret police seem to have largely fallen apart. As for Di Renjie, he eventually worked his way back into the good graces of Wu and the court, eventually being recalled to Luoyang to serve.  Di Renjie's own legend grew, and in the 18th or 19th century he was recast as a kind of Tang dynasty detective in the historical crime drama genre popular at the time.  The book, "Di Gong An", or "Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee", was found by a Dutch Ambassador to China, Robert van Gulik, in a used bookstore in Tokyo, of all places.  Van Gulik would go on to translate the stories and penned a number of others using the style and characters of the original.  Judge Dee was cast as the "Sherlock Holmes of China" and has since become popular in both China and the West.  The first novel in the series was actually set in the time of Empress Wu. Robert van Gulik also had several scholarly works, including a translation of the Tang Yin Pi Shih, a 13th century manual for magistrates with examples of cases spanning approximately 1400 years, from the Qin to Song dynasty.  This work really helps to illuminate how the ancient justice system worked back then.  Fictional detectives aside, Empress Wu would continue to reign over an impressive period in history.  There were plenty of deadly politics, various attacks by outside forces, and more. Overall, it was a fairly prosperous time for the empires. When Wu passed away in 705, her son, Emperor Zhongzong, resumed the throne, ending the Zhou dynasty and resuming the Tang dynasty of the Li family.  Still, Wu Zhao, aka Wu Zetian, would be well remembered.  She was buried in the Qianling Mausoleum, near Chang'an, alongside her late husband, Emperor Gaozong.  Various other members of the Royal Li family were also buried there, and many of their tombs have been opened.  The paintings, statues, and artwork and funerary goods provide a tremendously detailed look at Tang court culture and society at this time.  Statues outside indicate officials and ambassadors from across the Tang courts sphere of influence.  There are depictions of court dress and the elaborate hairstyles, fabrics, and more, as the tombs generally include court men and women.  The famous mural of the Ambassadors is shown with Korean, western, and possibly even a Japanese envoy.  The murals also show architectural elements of ancient Chang'an and more. The tombs of Gaozong and Zetian clearly known, but currently have not undergone excavation.  Much like with the tomb of Qin Shihuangdi, the government has put a moratorium on opening the tombs until they can be sure that everything can be properly protected as they do so.  There is a huge concern that the tombs could be robbed or that priceless works could be damaged if they are opened improperly or without sufficient techniques to adequately preserve them. As noted above, although Empress Wu is often demonized by historians, we have to ask if her reign was truly so much different from others.  She was certainly a woman taking power in a male-dominated system.  Where a man projecting power was seen as normal, Empress Wu was seen as perverting the natural order.  An emperor taking to bed numerous consorts and concubines was considered only natural.  However, Empress Wu taking to bed various men for her own enjoyment was seen as licentious and indecent.  The double-standard seems pretty clear. I even have to wonder about things like the secret police.  While it certainly is alarming to see a government sending people out to arrest and charge people on the barest of evidence, often with little or no accountability or transparency, one should consider what justice looked like at the time, more generally.  Tang dynasty justice was often harsh, and torture was considered a standard practice to elicit a confession.  Once someone was accused of a crime, their guilt was assumed, and it was on them to prove their innocence.  This was a tall order, as the thinking of the day was often that if you hadn't done anything wrong, why would anyone risk falsely accusing you?  So clearly you had done *something* to disrupt the social order, even if it wasn't what you were actually accused of. Furthermore, there is a fine line between rooting out disloyalty to the regime and rooting out corruption.  Anonymous tips can be used to call SWAT to someone's house, but it can also be a way for a whistleblower to alert those in authority that something untoward is going on.  And something begun with the best of intentions, can easily be corrupted, especially in the wrong hands. And so I think we can give Empress Wu at least the benefit of the doubt that she seems to have tried to do right by the people and her country.  The Tang court, by all accounts, was a nest of vipers, and I don't think she was a saint, but neither was she the devil incarnate. In fact, a lot of the accusations against Empress Wu would appear to be paralleled, years later, in the archipelago—possibly being parroted by men who were aware of the anti-Wu propaganda.  Kouken Tennou—who would also reign a second time as Shoutoku Tennou, was embroiled in conflict. Like Wu, she came to power in a court embroiled in familial politics.  She was known to be a supporter of Buddhism, and she was also said to have had an affair with a monk, Doukyou, upon whom she is said to have lavished power and authority.  She is also said to have modeled her nengo, the auspicious names for the year, off of Empress Wu.  After her death, her reign was used as a reason why there was not another regnant female sovereign on the throne until the Edo period, and she is often seen as the Last Female Sovereign, much as there was never another Empress regnant amongst the various Sinic dynasties. However, returning ourselves back to the 7th century, those histories had yet to be written.  Instead, one has to wonder how much communication there was between the continent and the archipelago.  Did Uno no Sarara realize that she was not the only woman taking charge at that time?  Was Empress Wu considered a model for her?  Or was she seen as more of a rival?  Or was it neither?  Did either one regard the other at all, embroiled as they were in their own, local and domestic pursuits? If they did, there isn't much, if anything, in the record. There is plenty to be said about relations with both Silla and the Tang dynasty in general, however.  Most of the focus was actually on Silla, to be honest—not surprising given Silla's place in the international arena in relation to Yamato. Last episode we mentioned that an embassy was sent to Silla to announce the death of Ohoama.  It was only several months after he had passed away, on the 19th day of 687.  The chief and assistant envoys were Tanaka no Ason no Norimaro and Mori no Kimi no Karita.  Norimaro is listed as Jikikwoshi rank—the lowest of the Jiki category, which was the 3rd of 6.  This put him about 24 ranks down in the 48 rank system.  Karita, on the other hand, was Tsuidaini, putting him at about 43 of 48 court ranks.  Normally, I don't pay too much attention to the ranks that are given in the Chronicles, mainly for two reasons.  First off is that you aren't always sure that the rank given in the Chronicle corresponds with the rank at the time of the event—sometimes we see ranks that are clearly anachronistic—typically later in their life.  Since people don't typically drop in rank, unless they are demoted, this usually gives you some information, but not always. The second reason I often don't pay attention is because it usually isn't germane to the story.  It is why I'll also drop the uji and the kabane, once we establish a particular person.  Otherwise it feels like word salad. Every once in a while I do like to look at the ranks, however, because they do give us information about things like the individual's general position in the court hierarchy.  In this case we see that, of the officials selected for this assignment, one was near the bottom of the upper half of the court, while the other was really in a much more junior position.  I believe this may also be important later on, because there was a certain expectation that the person representing a sovereign in diplomatic situations would have sufficient rank to indicate some amount of pull, back home. The mission of Norimaro and Karita to Silla may have been ordered in the first month of the year, but it seems it likely took time before it actually left—or something happened.  I say this because in the 9th month we see an embassy from Silla arrive, and they are apparently unaware of any changes in the archipelago.  The embassy was headed by the Prince Gim Sangnim.  We are also told that there were two other officials, Gim Salmo and Gim Insyul, both of Geupson rank.  Then there was So Yangsin of Daesa rank.  That was two of vice ministerial rank and one of lower official rank.  These ranks were connected both to their office and to their family, as Silla still used a fairly rigid system based on the rank of one's family, similar to the way that the old Kabane system worked before it was reformed under Ohoama in the previous reign. The embassy from Silla also included a student-priest, Chiryu.  Presumably Chiryu was from Yamato and had gone abroad to study, and was now making his way back home. It appears as though the embassy had no idea that Ohoama had passed away as we are told that they had to be informed by the Dazai—the Viceroy of Tsukushi.  Once they were informed, they all put on mourning clothing, turned towards the east—towards the capital of Yamato—and they bowed three times and then cried out lamentations three times. I would note that there is another record in the first month of the following year, which states that Gim Sangnim and his colleagues were informed of Ohoama's death and lamented three times.   That could just be a misplaced duplicate of the previous entry, about the embassy—possibly it got recorded multiple times and different ways and on different dates.  It isn't exactly clear.  Either way, it seems that this was not meant to be an official condolence envoy, but just a regular embassy bringing trade goods disguised as tribute.  In fact, in the 2nd month of 688 we are told that the Viceroy of Tsukushi presented the tribute from Silla to the capital.  It is said to have included gold and silver, thin silks, cloth, skins, copper, and iron.  There were also images of the Buddha, all kinds of coloured fine silks, birds, and horses.  Sangnim himself had presents of gold and silver, colored stuffs, and various rarieties—80 items all told.  Sangnim and his crew probably didn't travel to Asuka, because we are told that as of the 10th day of the 2nd month of 688 they were being entertained in the Tsukushi government house, where they were given various gifts by the court, and then they headed out on the 29th day of that month. A year after that, in the first month of 689, Norimaro and Karita returned from Silla, suggesting that the two embassies really had just passed each other—such were the issues with international travel back in the day. Now, normally, we don't hear much about what happened during these embassies.  The Nihon Shoki doesn't typically record anything, possibly because they just didn't have any records.  And the records in the Samguk Sagi often don't mention anything, either.  It is possible that it was just considered too routine to mention the ins and outs.  However, in this instance, we may have some insight, because it is mentioned later in the narrative. You see, four months behind Norimaro and Karita came the formal Silla condolence envoy.  It was headed by Gim Dona, of Geupson rank—so a vice minister instead of a prince heading up the embassy.  Silla also sent student-priests Meiso, Kwanchi, and others, along with a gold-copper image of Amida Buddha and a gold-copper image of Kannon and an image of Daiseishi Boddhisatva, along with colored silks and brocades. A month after they arrived, the condolence envoy received a message from none other than Queen Uno no Sarara herself, but this was not necessarily a good thing.  In fact, she appears to be dressing down the Silla envoys and the Silla court more generally, because of how things had gone with Norimaro and Karita—and this possibly also explains why it took so long for them to get to Silla and back. According to the Yamato court, Norimaro and Karita were sent to Silla to announce the death of Ohoama.  However, Silla protocol stated that persons charged to deliver a royal message had always had the rank of Sopan. This appears to be equivalent to the rank of Japchan, and indicates the third rank in Silla's system.  Because of this, Queen Uno's message goes on to state, Norimaro and Karita were not allowed to deliver their message about Ohoama's passing to the court.  However, back when Karu—Koutoku Tennou—had passed away in 654, Kose no Inamochi went to announce the funerals dates, and he was received by Gim Shunshun listened to the report.  So saying that it is someone of the third rank that is needed goes against precedent. Furthermore, when Naka no Oe passed away in 671, Silla sent Gim Salyu, who was of 7th rank, but now they send someone of 9th rank.  So if precedent was to be followed, wouldn't that also be a problem? This whole thing is really fascinating in that it demonstrates the kind of delicate balance and back and forth that was going on—and I suspect that it was growing even more specific as each country was adopting more rules and laws, and compiling them into codes.  It is notable that the Chronicles make sure to state the rank of each ambassador from Silla, at least in the last several reigns.  That suggests that the government was tracking such things, and that it was important. The rest of the screed by the Yamato court seems a little more about setting out Yamato's position on Silla-Yamato relations.  Here Yamato puts words into the mouths of former Silla officials, claiming that they always addressed Yamato's sovereign with deference.  Yamato claimed Silla had promised service to Yamato since the remote royal ancestors, promising that the oars of the ships bringing tribute to the archipelago would "never become dry", and yet this time, there was only one ship that came to offer condolences.  Furthermore, the Silla kings were to serve the sovereigns of Yamato faithfully, but they had now broken the faith. Therefore their tribute goods were sealed up and returned back. That said, they weren't completely breaking off communications.  This was a rebuke, certainly, but they were willing to keep channels open with hopes that relations might improve in the future. My read on all of this is that the Yamato envoys to Silla had been snubbed by that court for not being of appropriate station by Silla's rules.  Therefore, in a tit-for-tat move, Yamato was treating the condolence envoy similarly. That doesn't mean they didn't show them any hospitality, though.  Queen Uno no Sarara had the Viceroy, Awada no Mabito no Ason, give the student-priests Meiso and Kanchi, who had just come back with the condolence envoy, 140 kin of floss silk for their teachers back in Silla, in apparent gratitude.  And then a few days later they were entertaining the condolence envoys in Wogohori in Tsukushi, and giving them various presents for their trouble. This is likely the kind of "don't shoot the messenger".  Sure, they were returning the tribute and sending a message to Silla, but that wasn't the fault of Gim Dona and his colleagues.  And they were now taking a rather disappointing message back with them—I doubt anyone wanted to be in Gim Dona's shoes as he told the court what had transpired. Gim Dona and crew left shortly after that.  From there, we don't have a lot of information on what happened.  The Silla annals of the Samguk Sagi don't record Gim Dona's embassy, let alone what happened when they came back.  However, Silla  would send future envoys, and diplomatic relations between the two countries continued throughout the reign.  The Silla embassies from that point on are largely, for our purposes, unremarkable.  I may mention them if they relate to other items of note, but for the most part there is really only two other embassies of note, and they were in the year 693.  The first was from Silla, led by Gim Gangnam of Sasan rank, along with Gim Yangweon of Hannama rank—so 8th and 11th rank in the Silla hierarchy, apparently.  They had come to announce the death of King Sinmun, who had passed away the previous year.    And so, on the 16th day of the 3rd month, an embassy was prepared to depart for Silla.  It was headed up by Okinaga no Mabito no Oyu, of Jikikwoshi rank—much as Norimaro had been.  He and his proposed vice envoy, Ohotomo no Sukune no Kogimi, who was Gondaini rank—27th of 48—were both given gifts prior to their election as ambassadors, and were sent as condolence envoys, themselves. Meanwhile, let's take a look at Yamato's interactions with the Tang dynasty. First of all, we see a note in the 6th month of 689 that presents of rice were given to Xu Shouyen, Sa Hungko, and others from the land of the Great Tang.  So was this an embassy?  Not quite. Remember that little scuffle back in the 660s on the Korean Peninsula?  That special military operation by Silla and Tang forces against Baekje, where Yamato had tried to assist, only to have their navy bested by Tang forces? Well during the fighting , there had been numerous prisoners taken, on both sides.  Xu Shouyen and Sa Hungko were two such prisoners.  Except that "prison" in this case was largely being sent to live off the land.  They were probably forced to do labor, though if they had special skills, such as reading and writing, they may have been put to work in another way.  Indeed, we later see these two mentioned not as prisoners or even slaves, but as teachers of "pronunciation".  They were even given rice-land and stipends of their own.  Granted, this is decades after they first came to  Yamato, so this wasn't exactly a smooth ride. But it wasn't just Tang prisoners in Yamato.  Yamato soldiers had also been captured and taken prisoner by Tang forces.  And so, in the 9th month of 690, we see three priests who had gone to the land of Tang to study returned in the company of a Silla escort envoy, and they brought back with them a soldier, Ohotomobe no Hakama, from the Upper Yame district in Tsukushi. The three priests, Chishiu, Gitoku, and Jougwan all made their way to the capital, arriving several weeks after they first made landfall in Tsukushi.  At this point, Prince Kawachi was the Dazai in charge of affairs out there, and soon after the priests arrived at Naniwa and made their way to the capital, in Asuka, messengers going the other way made it out to Tsukushi with orders to give presents and gifts to the Gim Gohun, the escort envoy who had shuttled them all back from the continent. But even more impressive was the royal edict that was dated a week later for Ohotomobe no Hakama.  It lays out the circumstances of his capture and what happened to him that he stayed in the land of the Tang for so long.  You see, Hakama was one of many soldiers who was captured during the war to defend Baekje.  But three years after that conflict, the Tang dynasty was no longer trying to keep them prisoner.  This was a time when you didn't necessarily need to have buildings with walls to keep people prisoner—you just moved them to a new area where they could farm or otherwise set up a livelihood, or starve.  Travel was dangerous and expensive, especially if you didn't speak the language.  Nonetheless, if you did wish to return, there wasn't a lot stopping you, beyond just having the means to do so. And so this group of Wa soldiers got together and debated what to do.  We are told that it was four men—Hashi no Hoto, Kohori no Oyu, Tsukuhi no Satsuyama, and Yuge no Gen Jitsuni—the last one apparently having taken a local name on the continent.  Amongst themselves, they wanted to return to the archipelago not just to see their families and friends, but also to let people back home know about the changing conditions on the mainland.  As you may recall, around this time, Yamato was fiercely building up forces and defenses because they were convinced that there was going to be an attack by the Tang and Silla forces at any moment. The only problem that these four had in getting back was that they had, well, nothing.  They had neither the clothing nor provisions to make such a journey.  What would they eat and how would they pay for passage?  As such, they were unable to get back.  Hearing this, Ohotomobe no Hakama spoke up.  He declared that, as much as he also wished to return, he could at least help them out.  He offered to be sold into slavery so that his companions could obtain money with which to buy food and clothing. And so they did.  Hakama was sold, and he probably had no idea what happened to the four after that. It turns out, however, that they did make it back and were able to give the Yamato court some idea of what had happened.  Meanwhile, Hakama remained in a foreign land as a slave for some 30 years, until he was finally able to make it back to Yamato, apparently with the help of the three monks. This whole story was relayed to the court, and when the Queen heard it, she decided to act.  And thus the edict.  Not only did she recount his story and praise him for his loyalty, but he was granted certain honors.  First off, he was granted the rank of Mudaishi—the 39th rank in the court hierarchy, which gave him not a small amount of status, especially if he stayed in Tsukushi.  He was also granted5 pieses of coarse silk, 10 bundles of floss silk, 30 tan of cloth, and 1000 sheaves of rice.  On top of that, though, he received four chou of rice-land, which was given to him and his descendants, until at least his great-grandchildren.  Finally, his parents, siblings, and children, were also exempted from having to ever provide corvee labor. Now, nobody could give him back his 30 years, but this was quite the consolation prize, at the time.  To basically get rank and status, a stipend down four generations, and exemption from forced labor for him and his relatives, that was pretty incredible, if you think about it. Hakama wasn't the only one who had suffered in the country of the Great Tang and was rewarded for it.  Mononobe no Kusuri, from Iyo, and Mibu no Moroshi, in Higo, were also paid out handsomely in consolation for their sufferings,  though we aren't given details on their stories, or even when they came back. There are also other descriptions of Tang men, but it seems that these were individuals in a similar position to Xu Shouyen and Sa Hungko—they had been captured and were now living in Yamato.  That they were integrating into Yamato society seems clear from the fact that they were given rank and similarly treated like vassals of the throne. What we don't see, however, are any further diplomatic missions.  Those wouldn't start up for a while, and so even if Queen Uno no Sarara had wanted to confer with another female monarch, it would have to have been done through the auspices of Silla, who at t his point seem to have largely controlled the flow of goods, people, and thus information between the straits. And with that, I think we can close out this episode.  Moving forward, we have more details about a lot of different things, and yet others are still lacking.  It is my goal to try and be a little more selective about the passages we pull from the Chronicles.  We don't need to go over every natural disaster or prayer to the wind-gods.  We will take a look at things like the completion of the Fujiwara capital, as well as the 22 volumes of the Asuka-Kiyomihara law codes.  And then there are a few persons of note that we should probably mention as well, such as the appearance of Fujiwara no Fubito.  We should also talk about some of the other royal edicts that were made. All of that for later.  For now, if you like what we are doing, please tell your friends and feel free to rate us wherever you listen to podcasts.  If you feel the need to do more, and want to help us keep this going, we have information about how you can donate on Patreon or through our KoFi site, ko-fi.com/sengokudaimyo, or find the links over at our main website,  SengokuDaimyo.com/Podcast, where we will have some more discussion on topics from this episode.
