Some argue that togoku geko (leaving the capital to east province) of Sakihisa KONOE, who was her nephew, may have been arranged by Keijuin, who expected Kenshin UESUGI to go to the capital (Kyoto) and restore the Shogun family and the Imperial Court.
更に甥近衛前久の東国下向の背景には将軍家及び朝廷の再興を図るために上杉謙信の上洛に期待する慶寿院の関与もあったとする見方もある。
