The volume of "Kuniyuzuri" is well-known for the description of the "fight for Ritsubo" The story reveals that the Koto Family takes the initiative in coming up with the conclusion to the problem of the investitude of the Crown Prince(by using the method of "Atemiya Kyukon-Tan"). Furthermore it explains that the victory of the Masayori Family is superficial and proves the relativity of their logic. The Koto Family's logic is also proven relative to the authority of the Royal Family, through the revelation of Toshikage's post-humous works and the lack of filial piety. The story, while explaining the superiority of Koto Famiry logic, makes it relative by insisting that nobody receives favor without permission from God. The plot of this story, which is planned to express that nothing is absolute, is deeply based on the realization of "Ku" in Buddhism, all closely associated with the volume of "Toshikage."
