History of Kokiden Hall
Kokiden Hall was an important palace in the inner palace near Seiryoden where the Emperor resided.
The Lady Kokiden of ‘The Tale of Genji’ is the character who entered the court of Emperor Kiritsubo and subsequently gave birth to the Emperor Suzaku.
Lady Kokiden is famous for persistently bullying Kiritsubo-no-koi, Genji’s mother.
The Lady’s younger sister Oborozukiyo also lived in Kokiden Hall and had a relationship with Genji. This made the Lady angry at Genji, who was then exiled to Suma.
In real life, women referred to as ‘Lady Kokiden’ include Empresses of Emperor Uda, Emperor Murakami, and Emperor Ichijo.
