History of Asia

The reason why Senshi supported Fujiwara no Michinaga

Michinaga Senshi (Senshi). I hear why she's for her cute little brother, but it doesn't seem to be the only thing.

Michinaga and Senshi's father Kaneie And Kaneie's brother Kanemichi The conflict with Senshi Her and her husband Emperor Enyu And Ishu It seems that it has a lot to do with the relationship with (Korechika). That's why Kaneie Kanemichi Power struggle and its influence Senshi I would like to find out about the human relationships of.

What was the cause of the disagreement between Kanemichi and Kaneie brothers?

To tell the truth, Kaneie Kanemichi Power struggle is the husband of Senshi Emperor Enyu It surfaced in the morning, but Kanemichi in the first place And Kaneie The worsening of the relationship is the former emperor Emperor Reizumi It goes back to the morning.

Emperor Reizei Fujiwara no Saney as Kampaku (Saneyori) will be hired, but he was in a weak position regardless of the relationship with the emperor. On the other hand, Kaneie's eldest brother Yin (This is just) is his sister Yasuko (Anshi) is Emperor Reizei Being the mother of her, that is, her uncle, is given preferential treatment (father has already died). Meanwhile, Yi Yin Gives special treatment to Kaneie in order to solidify his political base.

* Yasuko Demise in 964

* Anwa no Hen Due to Fujiwara's last exclusion case, Takaakira Minamoto, Emperor Reizei, and Emperor Enyu's brother Tamehira-shinno moved to the left. Behind this was Yi Yin And Kaneie Some scholars think it was. These contributions are Yi Yin Is Kaneie It seems to be the reason for the preferential treatment.

Kanemichi Has mixed feelings when he sees his younger brother get ahead of him. Anyway, from this area Kanemichi And Kaneie Relationship was getting worse.

Emperor Enyu's coronation

969, Emperor Reizei Was transferred and at the age of 11 Emperor Enyu Is the coronation. He had to put in regent or kampaku because he was a child. Actually actual request Yi Yin Assists politics as a customs officer, but both die by 972. Yoritada was named as a candidate for Kampaku after that. (Son of real life), Kanemichi , Kaneie is.

After all, Emperor Enyu Chosen Kanemichi .. The reason for choosing it is that Emperor Enyu's mother Yasuko " When rubbing, in order of brothers It was her will.

* This will was probably left in case something happened to Yasuko's husband, Emperor Murakami. In addition to having many children, Emperor Reizei had a mental illness.

Kampaku / Kanemichi's policy

Kanemichi Is thoroughly Kaneie It moves in the direction of suppressing. At the same time, his own daughter Koshi (Koko) Emperor Enyu I will also put it in and harden my feet. Emperor Enyu And Koshi Was my sister's wife, and although she was a little older, she got along well and became Nakamiya.

If things go smoothly, there is no problem, but that is not the case. 977 Kanemichi Suffers from illness.

Kaneie who heard the news of the illness Kanemichi heard from his family that he came near his home There seems to be an anecdote that he was furious when he found out that he was heading for the ban by passing through when he was thinking "I finally came to visit him". Due to these circumstances, Kanemichi until the very end. Is Kaneie Harass you. Just before his death, Saneyori's son Yoritada Was put into Kampaku.

* It seems that Kanemichi and Yoritada had a close relationship with each other, such as having the chief of the family handed over, so there is a story that he was planning to hand over the position of Kampaku even if there was no sympathy.

Kanemichi's miscalculation? And the change in the relationship between Senshi and Emperor Enyu

Kanemichi While he was still alive, he was able to suppress Kaneie, who was in the same position as Emperor Enyu and Emperor Reizei's uncle. , Weak Yorita When it comes to Kampaku, Kaneie I can no longer ignore the existence of.

Emperor Enyu Also Kaneie Hoping for a reconciliation with the Minister of the Right. In addition, in 977, Yoritada's eldest daughter Junshi (Junshi) and Kaneie's second daughter Senshi (Senshi) is in.

Junshi If a child was born, the power relationship would probably have changed, but the child was born Senshi . It was only. In 980, Yasuhito Prince , The later Emperor Ichijo will be born. Because he was the only prince of Emperor Enyu, Kaneie's voice will increase dramatically became.

By the way, 979 in the meantime. Another Senshi There will be inevitable events to talk about. Emperor Enyu Nakamiya Koshi Has died. Junshi because the Chugū position became vacant. And Senshi It will be a situation to vie for this position between.

... After all, Junshi was placed in the Chugū position in 982. To be attached. No more Kaneie It seems that he is afraid that his voice will increase, but the relationship between Senshi and Emperor Enyu is terrible due to the fact that he has been in a terrible situation . It will become. Of course, the relationship between Kaneie and Emperor Enyu also got worse . Not to mention that. This is Emperor Kazan two years later. Will lead to the transfer of.

Emperor Ichijo's coronation

Emperor Kazan who received the transfer from Emperor Enyu Although she was politically competent, her private life seemed to be flashy and repeated to reach out to and abandon aristocratic women.

Meanwhile, Emperor Kazan His interest in Buddhism grows when he died during pregnancy when his daughter became serious.

It was Kaneie that I noticed there. .. Emperor Kazan Is the child of Emperor Reizei and the daughter of Yi Yin So his own grandson Ichijou Kaneie who wanted to be on the throne It was also an obstacle for me. So I planned Kanna's change ..

My younger son Michikane Emperor Kazan In the meantime, he moved the three sacred treasures necessary for the coronation to the prince's residence and closed the inner gates. When I realized that I was deceived, I had no choice but to leave the house.

In this way Emperor Kazan Has abdicated and is only seven years old Emperor Ichijo Enthronement as. Of course Yoritada Is Emperor Kazan He resigned from the Kampaku position with his abdication, and Fujiwara no Kaneie Is Emperor Ichijo's Regent In addition, Okisada's prince (later Emperor Sanjo) is the crown prince It became.

Teishi's Iriuchi and Kaneie's death

Emperor Ichijo When he was 11 years old, four years after his coronation, Kaneie's eldest son Michitaka Daughter Teishi Is in. Emperor Ichijo And Teishi Seems to have been close to each other.

* It seems that Teishi was a witty woman, and Emperor Ichijo liked that part as well. This is the reason why Michinaga attached Murasaki Shikibu as a tutor when he sent his eldest daughter, Akiko, to Emperor Ichijo.

And just in the same year Kaneie Died, Michitaka Will succeed the trace and become Kampaku. Michitaka Maybe because he was watching the situation of Kaneie, he and his son Ishu by a relatively forcible method. Will be promoted.

Senshi What did you think of this situation?

Her husband Emperor Enyu Looking at the situation of disagreement, love is the son's Emperor Ichijo It will be easier to see the morning affairs.

In fact, Ichijo morning has a strong voice Senshi It seems that some people even accused him of having "Kokubo Sencho". Such Senshi Michitaka And his child Ishu And Teishi What do you think about ?? It's easy to imagine that you won't have a very good impression.

On the contrary, Senshi Against Michitaka And Ishu Will have a bad impression. Ishu Is the son of Senshi Emperor Ichijo To Michinaga Senshi during a power struggle with And Michinaga It seems that he also said badly. Naturally it is Emperor Ichijo Shouldn't be good, Senshi Recommended Michinaga Seems to be given preferential treatment.
