For these reasons, the bakufu government reviewed and changed their policies so that the prohibition of Matsugoyoshi (adopting someone after the master of a samurai family died with no heir) having caused the state of no heir existence was loosened to reduce the chances of Kaieki (punishment in which a samurai was deprived of his samurai status and his fief and residence were confiscated), the restriction of the areas where they lived was loosened and help was given to find a new lord.
これらによって、幕府は従来の政策を見直し、世嗣断絶の原因となっていた末期養子の禁を緩め大名の改易を減らし、牢人の居住制限を緩和し、再仕官も斡旋するようになった。
