英語訳
Yesterday, through the offices of the residential caretaker (o-rusuī) Tsuda Kurōemon (Morinaga), acting on behalf of Lord Munenori, an inquiry document (o-ukagai-sho) was submitted. Today, a response has been issued by way of an attached note (o-tsuke-fuda).
Inquiry Document:
Regarding Lady Ogimaru,
as it has been previously decreed that she is to visit the Ōoku of both keeps (ryō-o-maru),
on the day of her visit to the Main Keep (Gohonmaru),
she is to present formal tribute offerings to the Lord Kubō (Shogun) through the official front,
and at the time of her visit to the West Keep (Nishi-no-maru),
is she to present formal tribute offerings to the Lord Ōgosho (Retired Shogun) and the Lord Dainagon through the official front?
Attached Note (Response):
The tribute offerings to the Lord Ōgosho and the Lord Dainagon are also to be
presented at the official front of the Main Keep on the 15th of tomorrow.
Inquiry Document:
One: As for the formal tribute offerings from Lady Ogimaru through the official front, I had assumed they would be presented through the inner gate of the official front (omote naka no kuchi), in the same manner as my own tribute offerings. However, if it has been decreed that they be presented by Lady Ogimaru's accompanying retainers, then the question arises as to whether this refers to the official front of the Ohirojiki (the inner administrative quarters)...
