Zenshin (Yasunobu MIYOSHI) often appears in the episodes as a whole, for example, in the entry dated June 9, 1191, at the marriage between Yoshiyasu ICHIJO and Yoshitsune KUJO, Sadaisho (Minister of the Left), the wedding clothes were late to arrive, and Masako HOJO, Midaidokoro (Shogun's wife) or Yoritomo, who arranged them, was in a 'bad temper,' but Zenshin's 'excellent turn of phrase' made Masako or Yoritomo 'amused' and saved the people from the trouble.
また1191年（建久2年）6月9日条には、一条能保の娘の左大将九条良経との婚姻に際しその衣装が遅れ、その沙汰をした御台所北条政子か頼朝が「御気色不快」になったときに善信（三善康信）が「秀句」を語って怒っていた政子か頼朝は「御入興」でお咎めを回避したなど、総じてエピソードのたぐいによく登場する。
