Hideyoshi was pleased to meet Senmatsumaru and said that Senmatsumaru appeared to be as capable as Masayasu and that he expected Senmatsumaru to grow up to be a brave warlord, but was displeased at such treatment for Senmatsumaru as having given him merely 3,000 koku.
秀吉は、千松丸の器量は父親に劣らず早く大人になって立派な武将になるようにと言って喜び、3000石しか領地を与えていないことには不服であったといわれる。
