For example, it is known that, after Yoshihisa ASHIKAGA assumed the position of shogun, his uncle, Katsumitsu HINO, who was Naidaijin (the Minister of the Interior) completely controlled affairs of state, but we can know from this diary that, in military administration, for matters which Katsumitsu who was a noble in his roots could not make judgment, it was instructed to get the approval of the steward of the office of administration, Sadamune ISE (Military administration was in the hand of Sadamune ISE, who was a close retainer of Yoshimasa ASHIKAGA.).
例えば、足利義尚の将軍就任後、その伯父、内大臣日野勝光が政務を取り仕切っていたことが知られているが、軍政面で、公家出身の勝光に判断できないものについては、政所執事伊勢貞宗の決裁を受けるよう指示していた（＝軍政面は、足利義政側近である伊勢貞宗の管轄であったこと）が、この日記で知ることができる。
