Prince Tsuneyoshi

Prince Tsuneyoshi (1325–1338?) was the eldest son of Emperor Go-Daigo by his favourite consort Ano Renshi. Named crown prince in 1334, he was escorted north by Nitta Yoshisada to Kanagasaki Castle in Echizen after Ashikaga Takauji's victory in 1336.

There he issued imperial commands, heading a short-lived Hokuriku court. The castle fell in 1337; the Taiheiki says he was captured and poisoned in Kyoto in May 1338, though he may have survived in the north until around 1346.
