Sumiyuki was a son of [[Kujo Masamoto|Kujô Masamoto]] and was adopted by [[Hosokawa Masamoto]]. Masamoto intended at first to make Sumiyuki his heir but when this caused dissatisfaction within the [[Hosokawa clan]] (who objected in view of Sumiyuki's noble blood), he came to favor a younger adopted son, [[Hosokawa Sumimoto|Sumimoto]]. Sumiyuki was supported in his claim for the inheritance by [[Kosai Motonaga|Kôsai Motonaga]] and the two plotted against Masamoto. Masamoto was surprised and murdered in his bath in 7/1507. Around a month later, however, Sumiyuki and Motonaga were attacked by allies of Sumimoto and defeated. Sumiyuki committed suicide.
