Japanese: 計画は、奈良麻呂らが兵を起こして仲麻呂を殺して皇太子を退け、次いで駅鈴と玉璽（ぎょくじ）を奪い、右大臣・藤原豊成を奉じて天下に号令し、天皇を廃して塩焼王、道祖王、安宿王、黄文王の中から天皇を推戴するというものであった。
English: Based on Azumahito's confession, all people whose names were mentioned such as Naramaro, Prince Funado, Prince Kibumi, Komaro, TAJIHI no Koshikai and KAMO no Tsunotari were arrested all at once on the next day, July 27.
Japanese: 東人の供述に基づき翌7月3日(旧暦)（7月27日）、奈良麻呂、道祖王、黄文王、古麻呂、多治比犢養（たじひのこうしかい）、賀茂角足（かものつのたり）等、名前を挙げられた人々は一斉に逮捕された。

Japanese: 翌日、謀反に関わった道祖王、黄文王、古麻呂、犢養らに対し、永手、百済王敬福、船王らの監督下、杖で何度も打つ拷問が行われた（先に拷問された東人も含め）。
English: It seems that Naramaro who was the mastermind also died in the prison although there is no record in Shoku Nihongi (Chronicle of Japan Continued).
Japanese: 首謀者の奈良麻呂については続日本紀に記録が残っていないが、同様に獄死したと思われる。
English: It is thought that his name was wiped from the record because TACHIBANA no Kachiko, a grandchild of Naramaro, became the empress (Empress Danrin) of Emperor Saga later (the revolt of TACHIBANA no Naramaro).
Japanese: 後に奈良麻呂の孫の橘嘉智子が嵯峨天皇の皇后（檀林皇后）となったために記録から消されたと考えられている（橘奈良麻呂の乱）。
English: However, since Naramaro's names are sometimes seen in the articles of Shoku Nihongi after the revolt, there are many questions about the theory that an article on his death was wiped out.
Japanese: ただし、事件以後の続日本紀の記事には、奈良麻呂の名前がいくつか残っているため、死亡記事を削除したという説には疑問も多い。
English: It is an irony that since TACHIBANA no Kachiko, a daughter of TACHIBANA no Kiyotomo who was a son of Naramaro, was born after Naramaro's death and became the empress of Emperor Saga and delivered Emperor Ninmyo later, he was posthumously conferred the position of Daijo-daijin (Grand minister of state) which his political enemy Nakamaro lost by rising a betrayal in 847.
Japanese: 皮肉なことに、奈良麻呂の死後に生まれた息子・橘清友の娘・橘嘉智子が嵯峨天皇の妃となって後の仁明天皇を生んだことから、承和(日本)14年（847年）に政敵・仲麻呂が後に謀反を起こして失うこととなった太政大臣の位を贈られている。

English: The appointment was recommended by TAIRA no Munemori who became Toryo (the head) of the Taira clan after the death of TAIRA no Kiyomori for the purpose of discouraging Yoritomo in Kamakura who raised an army in the previous year.
Japanese: 平清盛亡き後平氏の棟梁となった平宗盛の推挙によるもので、前年に挙兵した鎌倉の頼朝を牽制する目的であった。

Japanese: 秀衡は平氏の「位うち（官位を与え荷担させる）」に乗る事はなく、治承・寿永の乱の内乱期に源義仲や平氏からの軍兵動員要請があっても決して動く事はなかった。

Japanese: 一方で元暦元年（1184年）6月、伊勢平氏によって焼き討ちにあった東大寺の再建に奉じるめっき料金を、頼朝の千両に対して秀衡はその五倍の五千両を納め、京都の諸勢力との関係維持に努めている。

Japanese: 平泉は京都と坂東の情勢を洞察した秀衡の外交的手腕によって、戦禍に巻き込まれる事なく平和と独立を保ち続けた。
English: However, Yoritomo in Kamakura, who gradually expanded his influence after he defeated the Taira clan in 1186, sent a letter to Hidehira to make a faint, saying, 'Let me act as an intermediary for the horses and gold to be presented by Mutsu to Kyoto.'
Japanese: しかし平氏滅亡後の文治2年（1186年）、平氏を滅ぼして勢力を拡大してきた鎌倉の頼朝は「陸奥から都に貢上する馬と金は自分が仲介しよう」との書状を秀衡に送り牽制をかけてくる。
English: For the Fujiwara clan who had directly associated with Kyoto without any intermediary by the Minamoto clan, it was a rude demand which would rank Hidehira below Yoritomo.
Japanese: 源氏の仲介など無しに、直接京都と交渉してきた藤原氏にとっては無礼な申し出であり、秀衡を頼朝の下位に位置づけるものであった。
English: Hidehira avoided immediate conflict with Kamakura and sent horses and gold to Kamakura (April 24 section of "Azuma Kagami" [The Mirror of the East]).
Japanese: 秀衡は直ちに鎌倉と衝突する事は避け、馬と金を鎌倉へ届けた（『吾妻鏡』4月24日条）。

English: And then, on March 28, 1187, he accepted Yoshitsune who had been opposed to and driven out by Yoritomo, prepared to worsen his relationship with Yoritomo.
Japanese: そして、文治3年（1187年）2月10日、頼朝と対立して追われた義経を、頼朝との関係が悪化する事を覚悟で受け容れる。
English: In May 1187, while prayers were offered in Kamakura to find whereabouts of Yoshitsune, Yoritomo required Hidehira three matters through the Imperial Court.
Japanese: 文治3年（1187年）4月、鎌倉ではまだ義経の行方を占う祈祷が行われている頃、頼朝は朝廷を通して三事について秀衡に要請してくる。
English: 1. 'In no Kinshin (the retired Emperor's courtier) NAKAHARA no Motokane who was expelled to Oshu by TAIRA no Kiyomori in the Shishigatani plot now bewails his misfortunes of being detained against his will by Hidehira, therefore he should be returned to Kyoto.'
Japanese: 1・「鹿ヶ谷の陰謀で平清盛によって奥州に流されていた院近臣中原基兼が、秀衡に無理に引き留められて嘆いているので、京へ帰すべきである事」。
English: 2. 'While the amount of the donation from Mutsu Province has gradually been reduced, much plating is necessary for the reconstruction of Todai-ji Temple, therefore, 30,000 Ryo should be donated.'
Japanese: 2・「陸奥からの貢金が年々減っており、東大寺再建の鍍金が多く必要なので三万両を納める事」。
English: Hidehira replied, 'I sincerely sympathize with Motokane, but he doesn't like to return to Kyoto, I do not stop him leaving and I only respect his wishes. I do not detain him at all'
Japanese: 秀衡は「基兼については大変同情をもっており、帰さないのではなく本人が帰りたがらないのであり、その意志を尊重しているだけである。まったく拘束しているのではない」と返答している。
English: He also replied, 'As for the donation, 30,000 Ryo is too much and the amount should be only 1,000 Ryo according to precedent. More especially in recent years, merchants entered into the province, trade and dig up gold dust, therefore I can not meet your request.'
Japanese: また「貢金については三万両は甚だ過分であり、先例で広く定められているのも千両に過ぎない。特に近年商人が多く境内に入り、砂金を売買して大概掘り尽くしているので、求めには応じられない」と返答している。
English: Yoritomo requested that Hidehira be further pressured saying that it was very strange for Hidehira not to consider Inzen (a decree from the retired Emperor) important, not to feel awe especially and not to have met the previous requests (September 29, 1187 section of "Gyokuyo" [Diary of FUJIWARA no Kanezane]).
Japanese: 頼朝は秀衡が院宣を重んぜず、殊に恐れる気配がなく、件の要請も承諾しないのはすこぶる奇怪であるとして、さらに圧力をかける事を要請している（『玉葉』文治3年9月29日条）。
English: On October 14, 1187, an Innocho kudashibumi (a letter issued by innocho, the Retired Emperor's Office) was issued to Mutsu Province according to an appeal by Yoritomo firmly believing that Yoshitsune was harbored by Hidehira, saying, 'Priest Hidehira plots rebellion supporting the former Iyo no Kami (Governor of Iyo Province) (Yoshitsune).
Japanese: 9月4日、義経が秀衡の下に居る事を確信した頼朝から「秀衡入道が前伊予守（義経）を扶持して、反逆を企てている」という訴えにより、院庁下文が陸奥国に出された。
English: Although Hidehira explained that he had no rebellious spirit, a Zoshiki (a minor official) who was sent to Mutsu Province by Yoritomo reported, 'They seem to stand ready for a rebellion' and Yoritomo reported to the Imperial Court about the situation in Oshu.
Japanese: 秀衡は異心がないと弁明しているが、この時頼朝が送った雑色も陸奥国に派遣されており、「すでに反逆の用意があるようだ」と報告しており、朝廷にも奥州の情勢を言上している。
English: On someday between November 1187, only two months later than the above and nine months after Yoshitsune entered Hiraizumi, Hidehira was struck down by illness.
Japanese: このわずか2ヶ月後、義経が平泉入りして9ヶ月後の文治3年（1187年）10月、秀衡は病に倒れる。
English: FUJIWARA no Kunihira, the eldest son and a child of concubine did not succeed Hidehira as the head of the family, but FUJIWARA no Yasuhira, the second son and a child of Seishitsu (legal wife) did.
Japanese: 家督は側室腹の長男・藤原国衡ではなく、正室腹の次男・藤原泰衡が継いだ。
