Fujiwara no Ieyasu

Fujiwara no Ieyasu (1080–1136) was a late Heian court noble, the second son of the palace minister Fujiwara no Akisue of the Northern House's Uona line. He held a string of provincial governorships and won exceptional favour under Emperor Shirakawa's cloistered rule, rising to councillor at junior third rank in 1134.

He spent the wealth from his governorships on temples such as Shōkongō-in. After Shirakawa's death he fell from power under Emperor Toba, while his son Ienari rose.
