* ''Title: Mino no kami''
* ''Distinction: [[Hojo clan|Hôjô]] retainer''
Ujinori was the 4th son of [[Hojo Ujiyasu|Hôjô Ujiyasu]], though his date of birth is uncertain. As a child, Ujinori was sent as a hostage to [[Imagawa Yoshimoto|Imagawa Yoshimoto's]] capital, Sumpu ([[Suruga province]]), where he met [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], a fellow hostage. He later returned to the Hôjô and was established at [[Nirayama castle]], the Hôjô's chief castle in [[Izu province]]. Prior to the [[1590]] siege of [[Odawara castle]], Ujinori traveled to [[Kyoto]] to act as an intermediary between [[Hojo Ujimasa|Hôjô Ujimasa]] and [[Hojo Ujinao|Hôjô Ujinao]] and [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. Although negotiations failed, he distinguished himself by his noble bearing and intelligence. During the actual siege (May-July 1590) Ujinori continued to act as a negotiator, and when Odawara surrendered he was given a piece of land worth some 10,000 koku in [[Kawachi province]].
Son: [[Hojo Ujimori|Ujimori]]
