At one time during the early 18th century, with the exception of the Konoe family, all the heads of Sekkan-ke (the families which produced the Regent and the Chief Adviser to the Emperor) were taken up by Norihira's grandsons (Kanehiro TAKATSUKASA, Kaneka ICHIJO, Sukeie KUJO, and Tsunahira NIJO).
なお、18世紀初期には近衛家以外の摂関家の全ての当主が教平の男系の孫（鷹司兼熙・一条兼香・九条輔実・二条綱平）が占めていた時期がある。
