[Minamoto no Yoriie] The second shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate! Life involved in Hojo's plot!

Minamoto no Yoriie ( Minamoto no Yori ) Is the second shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate. Founder of the Kamakura Shogunate, Minamoto no Yoritomo ( Tomo Minamoto ) It's your child.

Yoriie was born as a long-awaited successor in response to the blessings of those around him, but things suddenly changed when his father, Yoritomo, died.

What happened to Yoriie-kun, who was expected to succeed Yoritomo-san?

Let's go.

Profile of Minamoto no Yoriie, the second shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate, until the fall!

1182 , Was born in Kamakura in the middle of the "Genpei War".

The world is delighted with the birth of the long-awaited successor.

Yoritomo also prayed for a safe delivery and prepared an approach to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu, which is also the guardian deity of the Kamakura samurai, and is 1,8 km long. The great samurai were also very busy carrying soil and stones.

Around 12 years old Yoriie shot a deer for the first time in front of a large number of subordinates in a hunt to show his authority as a general.

Yoritomo is overjoyed. But his mother, Masako Masako "It's natural for the eldest son of a military commander!" Is called.

Is Yoritomo a stupid parent or Masako a strict person?

However, in a good sense, tsundere has been established.

Yoriie-kun is growing as a master of martial arts like never before.

He must have lived with the consciousness of "the next shogun."

Around 18 , His father, Yoritomo, died suddenly I will do it.

Yoriie will take over the second shogun.

However, the young Yoriie was reluctant to entrust politics, and decided that 13 influential servants would take charge of politics.

Yoriie also counterattacked it.

"I only talk to five young servants!" Is called. Relationships are getting worse and worse.

Even in such a situation, Yoriie-kun, who wants to take control of politics, has become a dictatorial method, and has finally become an antipathy to those around him.

Around 22 , Yoriie gets a serious illness.

This is a chance and his mother, Masako's parents' home Hojo Is the parents' house of his wife who was on the side of Yoriie-kun, Hiki ( Hiki ) Mr. Has been destroyed. Yoriie-kun's eldest son is with me ...

Yoriie-kun, whose condition has recovered, is furious! !!

He tried to destroy Mr. Hojo, but no one was on his side, and in the end his mother, Masako, forced him to leave the house and put him in a temple.

And at the age of 23 , I was assassinated by Mr. Hojo while taking a bath. ..

Yoriie involved in a power struggle!

Mr. Hiki vs. Mr. Hojo!

Yoriie-kun was very much loved by his father, Yoritomo, but it seems that his mother, Masako, didn't give him much love.

Probably because Yoriie was raised by Mr. Hiki and Mr. Masako was Mr. Hojo.

This was a power struggle for Hiki vs. Hojo . ..

Yoriie-kun, who became the second shogun, couldn't do the politics he wanted due to Mr. Hojo's strategy.

Even if you try to force politics, it is said to be dictatorship.

Yoriie-kun's evaluation is "Dark-kun" It is said that it was Mr. Hojo's strategy.

The truth is "Mei-kun" However, there is also a theory that Mr. Hojo had picked the buds.

Mr. Hojo's plot!

Mr. Hojo was originally the head family of Mr. Taira. Mr. Taira Kyoto destroyed by Mr. Yoritomo ・ Taira no Kiyomori ( Taira no Kiyomori ) San et al. Are a branch of the Taira clan.

Mr. Hojo may have used Mr. Yoritomo's power to regain the power of the head family.

And maybe Yoritomo, who has become obsolete, was killed by pretending to be a fallen horse?

In fact, all of Yoriie's children are dying out of work.

Yoriie had four boys and one girl, but his sons died unemployed in an incident involving Mr. Hojo, and his daughter died as it was because his first childbirth at the age of 33 was difficult. It's gone.
Furthermore, Yoritomo's second son, the third shogun, Minamoto no Sanetomo ( Sanetomo ) Is also assassinated by Yoriie's child.

This means that Yoritomo's bloodline has been completely cut off . ..

From now on, Mr. Hojo will rule the Kamakura Shogunate under the decorated shogun.
