   China made a lot
of money selling
their precious silk abroad. To protect this special trade, anyone who smuggled the silkworms out of the country would be severely punished.
Some colours and styles
of silk were only allowed to be worn by the emperor and his court, including the colour yellow and anything with gold embroidery.
