    I remembered the taiga drama.

    Original Text

    It is derived from the temple where Gyoki built an an temple in the Nara period and became Kigyoin. The name of the temple is from the name of Shinsai Nyudo's servant, Nishiko Hoshi, who was cut in the Heiji Rebellion, and it is certain that Shinsai Nyudo was pulled out of the hole by the soldier of Minamoto no Yoshitomo in the taiga drama and was cut off. .. After that, he was convicted of death even at the top of the Anti-Hei family. The instruction manual says that the remains were buried in this temple.
