Just like low to middle-class aristocrats who were technical officers, military aristocrats may privately have served as keishi (household superintendents) of powerful aristocrats such as regents or as inshi (officials at the Retired Emperor's Office) of Chiten no kimi (retired emperor).
軍事貴族は他の技能官人層の中下級貴族と同様、摂関家など有力貴族の家司や治天の君の院司として私的に奉仕するという側面も持っていた。
