Takatsukasa Fusako

Takatsukasa Fusako (鷹司房子, October 12, 1653 – May 19, 1712), also known as Shinjōsaimon-in (新上西門院), was an empress consort of Japan.

In light of the great fire in Kyoto that had destroyed the palace, the era name was changed to Enpō.

But on January 10, 1676,[e] immediately after a new palace had been completed, the temporary one at Motohiro's estate caught flame in turn.

Fusako and the emperor found refuge at the home of Yoshida Kaneyuki (吉田兼敬) before entering the new palace two days later.

Reigen abdicated the throne on May 2, 1687,[h] in favor of Crown Prince Asahito, who then became Emperor Higashiyama.
