Because of that achievement, Chushin was reappointed as the chief priest of Shokoku-ji Temple in February 1397; however, he resigned from the position and became the Tassu (a priest who takes care of a tacchu, sub-temple founded to commemorate the death of a high priest) of Rokuon-in Temple.
その功績から応永4年（1397年）2月に再び相国寺の住持として再任されるが、翌年には辞して鹿苑院塔主となる。
