		Local gossip had it that Bagyidaw was seen late at night atop the parapets of the royal palace dressed in an outfit of green silk feathers, trying to infiltrate the aviary spy ring which dominated his abode.

		However, the Burmese court refused to accept the calamitous loss of face they had suffered and responded with more arrogance to the invaders: in particular, they considered the need to negotiate on equal terms with a mere viceroy to be particularly insulting.
