Emperor En'yû was an [[emperor]] of the [[Heian period]].
Like his older brother and predecessor [[Emperor Reizei]], he was a grandson of [[Fujiwara no Morosuke]]. En'yû took the throne in [[969]], following his brother's abdication. Over the course of his reign, En'yû had three regents: Reizei's ''[[kanpaku]]'' [[Fujiwara no Saneyori]] continued on as En'yû's ''[[sessho|sesshô]]'' for one year, then was replaced by [[Fujiwara no Koretada]] from [[970]] to [[972]]. [[Fujiwara no Kanemichi]] then served as ''kanpaku'' from 972 until [[977]].
En'yû abdicated in [[984]], to be succeeded by his nephew, a son of Emperor Reizei who then took the throne as [[Emperor Kazan]], while En'yû took up retirement at the Kyoto mansion known as [[Horikawa-in]].
He had married [[Fujiwara no Senshi]], a sister of [[Fujiwara no Michitaka]]; following En'yû's death in [[991]], his empress took the tonsure and took on the name Higashi Sanjô-no-in.
