There is a legend about Senhime, known as the 'Yoshida Palace Story,' one of the favorite themes of Nishikie (colored woodblock print) and Rokyoku (recitation of stories accompanied by samisen), which holds that she would lure men into her residence and kill them all. 錦絵や浪曲でよく語られる、御殿から男を誘い込んで弄び、それらの男を全員殺したという「吉田御殿の話」が伝説として生まれている。 |
