Sakihisa was the son of [[Konoe Taneie|Konôe Taneie]], a close confident of [[Shogun|shôgun]] [[Ashikaga Yoshiteru]], and was named Kampaku in 1554 (this being during the reign of Emperor [[Go-Nara]]). He later spent some years in [[Echigo province]] as a guest of [[Uesugi Kenshin]] before returning to [[Kyoto]] in [[1565]], where he composed the [[Saga-ki]]. Relations between Sakihisa and [[Oda Nobunaga]] (who had entered Kyoto in [[1568]]) gradually soured, until the former felt compelled to flee to [[Satsuma province]] in [[1573]]. While in Satsuma he occupied himself with teaching poetry to [[Shimazu Narihisa]]. Thanks in part to the intervention of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi|Hashiba (Toyotomi) Hideyoshi]], Sakihisa was able to retun to Kyoto in [[1575]]. He repaired his relations with Nobunaga and acted as a go-between when Oda and [[Kennyo Kosa|Kennyô Kosa]] were negotiating the surrender of the [[Honganji]] in [[1580]]. He changed his name to Ryûzan in [[1582]] and took up the tonsure but remained active in court life, adopting Toyotomi Hideyoshi in order to provide the latter with a link to the [[Fujiwara clan|Fujiwara]] in [[1586]]. Hideyoshi in turn adopted Konôe's daughter and she later became a consort to [[Go-Yozei|Go-Yôzei]].
