Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The three counties of Uchi, Yoshino, and Uda in the southern part of Yamato are called the Southern Three Counties. They have always been places where the Kofukuji sect has been relatively weak. Uchi County is where the Futami clan, the descendants of Yamato Genji, has lived for generations. Yoshino County is composed of  A small-scale rural party composed of the Mu clan. In Uda County, there are three clans called the Uda generals or the Wazhou Uda clan, the Sawashi clan, the Akiyama clan, and the Yoshino clan.  The Akiyama clan is the head of the Kobe Shrine in Kobe Township, Uda County, Uda County, Ise Shrine.  At the end of the Kura Period, Kasugawakomiya Shrine's "Msuriki" records that "Ten Yabusashi horses and two Yoshino horses" were also affiliated with Kofukuji Temple.  However, the three Uda generals were not willing to obey Kofukuji Temple's orders. They quietly established a close relationship with the Ise Kitahata family. In "The Records of the Four Seishu Families", it is recorded that the "Wazhu Uda Three Generals" were the Ise Province Shikahata family.  The powerful official of the clan is probably just like the people of other countries who are matched by some famous names, who please both sides.  Later, they were very active as subordinates to the Southern Dynasties. In the "Taipingki", during the Shennan War, it was recorded that the Wada clan, the Kusu clan, the Maki clan, the Sawashi clan, and the Akiyama clan were subordinate to the Kusunoki clan. At the same time, there was also a record of the Yoshino clan.  This shows that there is a group of samurai groups in Yamato County who disobey the shogunate and do not respect the orders of Kofukuji Temple. These three families later fell into decline with the failure of the Yamato Eikyo Rebellion. They were not very close to the Kofukuji temple officials.  Another group of Chinese.  "This spring, His Majesty Tsutsui, the Lord of the Kingdom, went out to attack the three generals of Uda. On the way, the acne recurred and he returned to the palace, so" "Okay! Stop talking!" Zenjiro Yamaoka impatiently interrupted the old man's tirade and turned around.  When he came to the team, he sneered: "The Tsutsui family claims to be the king of the country? How funny!" Shima Sauchi and Takikawa Keijiro rode on the same horse. He raised his head and said: "His Royal Highness Tsutsui is the king of the country! It is His Highness Juichi who controls the country.  The position of Lord is given to His Majesty Tsutsui! If you don't know, don't talk nonsense! If the people hear it, I'll chop your head off." After saying that, Takigawa Keijiro shouted with a smile: "If you don't protect your head, you can't.  No guarantee!" Yamaoka Zenjiro was stunned as he watched the two men's mounts disappear into the team like rabbits, and gritted his teeth and said: "These little bastards are so disgusting! They don't know how to respect their seniors at all!  !¡± Tenga-gun is the core area of ??the Tsutsui family, and further east is Tengami-gun, which is the core area of ??Kofuku-ji Temple. Because Kofuku-ji Temple is also called Nanto, the seven towns in the county are also called Nanto Seven Towns, respectively.  Nandaemun Township in the south of Kofukuji Temple, Kitamimon Township in the north, Higashiomimon Township in the east, Nishimimon Township in the west, Anakou Township and Fukaimon Township in the west, and Shinyakushiji Township in the southeast.  Kofukuji Temple also controls Kasuga Shrine. The priests of the shrine are all monks. Speaking of which, the four gods of Kasuga enshrined in Kasuga Taisha Shrine are also the patron saints of the Fujiwara clan. Kasuga Taisha Shrine is actually the family shrine of the Fujiwara clan. Kofukuji Temple  It is also the Bodhi Temple built by Fujiwara Kamazu, so it makes sense that the two are one and the same.  It is also a tradition in medieval Japan for temple monks to serve as shrine priests, which is the legendary unity of gods and Buddhas. Japanese gods are very interesting. Gods and humans are in the same status. The gods also want to escape suffering like mortals, so  Seek enlightenment from the Buddha to gain liberation.  In the early Nara period, Echizen Kokuhi no Ojin ordered the establishment of Jinguji Temple. Later, Zen Master Mitsuru Mitsuru also established Jinguji Temple at Kashima Shrine, Kamo Shrine, Ise Jingu Shrine and other shrines in and outside Japan.  The Hachiman Daimyojin of the samurai god Hachiman Shrine was enlightened by the Buddha as the Hachiman Daibodhisattva, so it is not surprising to see a group of bald heads in the shrine. The shrine built near the temple has almost become a subsidiary institution of the temple.  It is said that Yamato is a kingdom of gods, not only because it was the seat of Kyoto for two generations, but also because there are a large number of shrines in it. Only in Sogai County, where Kofukuji Temple belongs, is the large shrine recorded in the "Enki Shikigami Name Account"  There are nine seats, and there are twenty-eight small shrines. Among the largest twenty-two shrines, the Yamato Kingdom occupies seven seats, including one in the upper seventh shrine, five in the middle seventh shrine, and one in the lower eighth shrine. In terms of influence, it is comparable to that of Yuanguo.  A small shrine is too powerful to compete for the throne.  I visited Heijo-kyo in Nara for two days and saw the scenery of Heijo-kyo in the southern capital. I also stayed in the Monzen Town of Kofuku-ji Temple for a few days. I visited this ancient temple to worship Sakyamuni Buddha. Speaking of which, this ancient Buddha is Fujiwara Kamazu.  It is enshrined when making a wish. It is said to be very effective and has always been the treasure of Kofukuji Temple.  In order to find the powerful monk as soon as possible, the Kira family warriors put on civilian clothes and entered Kofukuji Temple. Zenjiro Yamaoka directly asked the young monk who was welcoming him: "Where is Master Yinrong of Hozoin?" The other party was stunned for a long time without thinking of Hozo.  Where is the temple, but he pointed to the east with uncertainty and said: "Maybe somewhere." "What does this mean? Hozo-in doesn't even know that it can be called Kofuku-ji."People?  "Not to mention that Zenjiro Yamaoka thought what he said was unreliable. Even Kira Mansomaru shook his head. Only when a group of more than 20 people entered did they realize that the scale of Kofuku Temple was ridiculously large. There were too many monks who couldn't be named.  With names like Isho-in and Mahayana-in, Hozo-in is really not famous. He stopped several monks one after another and said they didn't know about Ho-so-in. Instead, he recommended that they go to Zhongjin Hall, Grand Lecture Hall, Five-Storied Pagoda, Dongjin Hall, and Nan.  Visit the Endo, Nishijindo, Hokuendo, and Three-Storied Pagoda one by one. If you want to have a meal, remember to go to the cafeteria. If you get lost, just remember to ask the passing monks. After running around and failing to find Hozo-in, Zenjiro Yamaoka complained.  : "That's ridiculous!  Such a big Buddhist temple can't find a branch?  What do the monks in this temple do for food?  Seeing that it was not possible to search like this, the warriors of the Kira family immediately divided into several groups to search for Hozo-in. The road to find Hozo-in was very winding. Finally, they met a monk near the south gate and asked about it before they found out that there was indeed a Hozo-in nearby.  It¡¯s just that the full name seems to be different. It¡¯s called Hozo-in in the Pagoda of Xingfukuji Temple. After searching for half a temple, I finally found Hozo-in in an inconspicuous corner. The full name of Hozo-in Yin-rong is Ho-zang-in Kakuzenfang Yin-rong.  The master of the Hozoin Pagoda in Yamato Kokofukuji Temple made them run for a long time in vain just because he didn¡¯t know the difference between his full name and the Pagoda. The Hozoin Yinrong was born in the first year of Dayei.  The second son of Hozoin Yinrong Yes! You read that right! His name is exactly the same as his father's. He follows the ancient method of naming names in the Middle Ages. Hozouin Yinrong's younger name is Shoeimaru, but he is generally called Shoeimaru in the temple.  Yinrong of the Zen House is only known to the outside world as Hozoin Yinrong. This is the legendary Kengren. He is called differently inside and outside the temple. When he became an adult, he inherited his father's name and became the leader of the Hozoin Monk Soldier Group. Among the many monk soldier groups in Xingfu Temple.  He was considered to be the top figure, but it was a pity that these monks did not usually run around in the temple. The people in the temple were ordinary monks, so they deserved to have their legs broken.
