Japanese: 中でも賄賂説がもっともメジャーで忠臣蔵の映画やドラマ、小説などは大抵この説を採用する。
English: Even though it is written in Tokugawa jikki (The True Tokugawa Records) that Kira loved to be bribed and was humiliated when Asano refused to give Kira a bribe, it must be said its credibility is not clear because the document has not much value as a historical material.
Japanese: 吉良は賄賂をむさぼるのが好きで浅野が賄賂を拒否したために辱められたという記述は徳川実紀にも記されているが、あまり史料価値が高いとは言えない書なので、やはり事実かどうかは不明というしかない。

English: It is noted as the most likely theory so far because it was told by the person who was a contemporary of Naganori ASANO's and close to feudal retainers of Ako Domain.

Japanese: 浅野は勅使を迎える位置についてたずねたのに吉良は教えてくれなかった。
English: Many researchers on gishi (loyal retainer) think it is unlikely for Kira to do such things because Kira was responsible for Naganori's failure and there are many questionable point considering that it was Asano's second time as a person in charge of the entertaining Imperial envoy.
Japanese: 浅野はこれで二度目の勅使饗応役であったことを考えれば不自然なものが多く、また長矩が失敗すれば上役である吉良も責任を問われるため、吉良がこのようなことをするとは思えないと考える義士研究家が多い。

English: Also, Kyuso MURO described Naganori's personality that he didn't like to bow his head, writing "Naganori was belligerent (or 'cave man' in marginal note) and never compromised" in his 'Ako gijin roku.'

Japanese: 昼夜閨にあって戯れ、政道は幼少の時より成長の今に至って、家老に任す」、つまり「長矩は女好きであり、いい女を献上する家臣だけを出世させる。
English: It is unwise to take every such thing on faith because Dokai Koshuki (1690 compilation of reports of 243 daimyo) is one of the curiosa not having great value as a historical material.
Japanese: 土芥寇讎記は奇書の類で史料価値は高いとはとても言えないので鵜呑みにするのは危険である。

Japanese: また長矩は、感情が激した時に胸が苦しくなる｢痞（つかえ）｣という精神病を持っていたという逸話があるが真相は不明。
English: There is a theory that his maternal genes are the cause because Naganori's maternal uncle Tadakatsu NAITO was forced into Seppuku and Kaieki (forfeit rank of Samurai and properties) due to attempt to cut Naonaga NAGAI during the funeral ceremony of the 4th Shogun Ietsuna TOKUGAWA in Zojo-ji Temple on June 26, 1680.

Japanese: 784年、桓武は平城京からの遷都を望み、「天皇はなはだこれ（種継）を委任し、中外の事皆決を取る」とまで評されていた種継は、山城国乙訓郡長岡京市の地への遷都を提唱した。
English: With Emperor Kammu's order, Tanetsugu visited Nagaoka along with FUJIWARA no Oguromaro, SAEKI no Imaemishi, KI no Funamori, ONAKATOMI no Kooyu, SAKANOUE no Karitamaro and in the same year he was appointed the Zogushi (Palace construction officer) in Nagaokakyo (the ancient capital of Nagaoka).
Japanese: 桓武の命をうけ藤原小黒麻呂・佐伯今毛人・紀船守・大中臣子老・坂上苅田麻呂らとともに長岡を視察し、同年長岡京の造宮使に任命される。
English: One of the reasons why he was selected for Zogushi could be that there were expectations for cooperation with the Hata clan, Tanetsugu's mother's family home, located in Kadono County, the Province of Yamashiro which was close to Nagaoka, the place where the capital was transferred to.
Japanese: 遷都先である長岡が母の実家秦氏の根拠地山背国葛野郡に近いことから、造宮使に抜擢された理由の一つには秦氏の協力を得たいという思惑があった事も考えられる。

English: Two years later Sukunamaro returned; however, the Fujiwara Shikike (the Ceremonial House of the Fujiwara clan) rapidly declined compared to Nanke (the Southern House of the Fujiwara clan) and Hokke (the Northern House of the Fujiwara clan), so he was in a weakened position.
Japanese: 2年後に復帰するが、藤原南家・藤原北家に比べると藤原式家の衰退振りは著しく、宿奈麻呂は不遇の日々を送っていた。
English: At that time, FUJIWARA no Nakamaro of Nanke reached the peak of his power and while his three sons (FUJIWARA no Masaki, FUJIWARA no Kusumaro and FUJIWARA no Asakari) became Sangi (Councilor) in 762, Sukunamaro even at age of 47 had still not been appointed to Sangi.

Japanese: 阿倍古佐美とのあいだに生まれた娘藤原乙牟漏は山部王（桓武天皇）との間に安殿親王（平城天皇）・神野親王（嵯峨天皇）・高志内親王をもうけ、平城天皇の即位に伴い、良継は正一位・太政大臣を追贈された。

Japanese: しかしながら、男子には恵まれず越前国守などを務めた一人息子の託美が長岡京で賊に襲われて死亡すると家は断絶するに至った。
English: There is no Sukunamaro's poem in "Manyoshu" (the oldest anthology of tanka); however, there is a poem written by his wife, ISHIKAWA no Iratsume (it was about her genuine affection for him, Volume 20-4491) which was passed down at the banquet held in Mikata no Okimi's house on December 18th in 757.
Japanese: 『万葉集』に歌はないが、天平宝字1年（757年）12月18日、三形王邸の宴で伝誦された妻の歌(「藤原宿奈麻呂妻石川女郎薄愛離別悲恨作歌」巻20・4491番)がある。

Japanese: 藤原浜成（ふじわらのはまなり、神亀元年（724年）-延暦9年2月18日(旧暦)（790年3月12日））は奈良時代の貴族・歌人。
English: Although he was a leading figure of the Western House of the Fujiwara clan as a legitimate son of FUJIWARA no Maro, the founder of the Western House, it is undeniable that in getting promoted, he always fell behind the second generation of the other three families (the Southern House, the Northern House and the Ceremonial House of the Fujiwara clan) who were older than him by a generation in age.
Japanese: 藤原京家の祖・藤原麻呂の嫡男として、京家の中心的人物であったが、年齢的に一世代近く年上であった他の3家（藤原南家・藤原北家・藤原式家）の二世世代に比べてその昇進は常に一歩後れをとらざるをえなかった。
English: According to "Mizu Kagami (The Water Mirror)", when Imperial Prince Osabe, the Crown Prince of Emperor Konin was deposed and a new crown prince was to be selected, Fujiwara no Momokawa recommended Imperial Prince Yamanobe, the first Prince of Emperor Koin, but Hamanari recommended Yamanobe's paternal half-brother, Imperial Prince Hieda whose mother (Princess Owari) was from a local ruling family because he was concerned about the fact that Imperial Prince Yamanobe's mother (TAKANO no Niigasa) was from an immigrant family (Yamatouji).
Japanese: 光仁天皇の皇太子であった他戸親王が廃され、新たな皇太子を選定する際、光仁天皇の第一皇子・山部親王を推す藤原百川に対し、浜成は山部の母（高野新笠）が渡来系氏族（和氏）の出身であることを問題視し、山部の異母弟で母（尾張女王）が皇族出身である薭田親王を推挙したとされる（『水鏡』）。
English: In June, however, he was demoted to Dazai ingaino sochi (provisional Governor-General of the Dazai-fu offices) because he was judged to have had no political accomplishments during his career.
Japanese: しかし6月になると、歴任した職で善政を聞いたことがないとの理由で、大宰員外帥に降格された。
English: It is highly possible that this was a warning to the opposing parties given by the enthroned Emperor Kanmu as well as retaliation for the opposition of his investiture as the Crown Prince.
Japanese: これは即位した桓武天皇による、反対する勢力への見せしめ、さらにはかつて自らの立太子に反対したことに対する報復であった可能性が高い。
English: When HIKAMI no Kawatsugu, a husband of Hamanori's daughter, Hoichi (法壱) rose in revolt in leap January, 782 (the Rebellion of HIKAMI no Kawatsugu), Hamanori was dismissed as Sangi (Royal Advisors) and Jiju (Chamberlain) because he was implicated in the rebellion.
Japanese: 782年（延暦元年）閏正月には、娘の法壱の夫である氷上川継が氷上川継の乱を起こすと、浜成も連座して参議・侍従を解任された。
