In 1529, Lady Goryū was born in Tajihi-Sarugake Castle, the second daughter of Mōri Motonari, daimyō of the Chūgoku region.

Among the children Lady Goryū had with him, her eldest daughter was married to Kōno Michinobu of Iyo Province, her second daughter married Motonaga (the eldest son of Kikkawa Motoharu), and her third daughter, Seikōin, married Mōri Terumoto; each marriage contributed to solidifying the unity of the Mōri family.
