Aoi no Ue

Proud and distant from her husband, Aoi is constantly aware of the age difference between them and very much hurt by Genji's philandering.

Aoi temporarily gains Genji's favour after giving birth to his son Yūgiri and experiencing spells of spirit possession.

Aoi no Ue is the Senior Minister of State family's daughter and Hikaru Genji's formal wife.

Then her family decided to invite the master of the art of Azusa, Priestess Teruhi, in order to identify the causation of the fantom.

Priestess Teruhi used a bow which is made of Japanese cherry birch and called fourth fantoms with the sound.

Genji has demonstrated his wife, Aoi no Ue, as an angularly dissatisfiedly and cold person, although in fact, her character was kind and warm.

[1] Later on, Aoi no Ue gave birth to Yūgiri (a boy), although she was murdered by the spirit of Rokujō no Miyasudokoro.

In the written story, Aoi no Ue was possessed by a baleful force, and Genji found that the cause was his former mistress, Lady Rokujō.

[2] Later, Genji showed a proclivity to be attracted to other beautiful women and subsequently ended up with 13 other different lovers.

[2] After he heard the voice and realised that was Lady Rokujō, he was extremely afraid and forced to drive back.
