Another passage from The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga (p. 259). This takes place in late 1576.
"On Tensho 4, the Year of Fire and the Rat, Eleventh Month, 21st day, Nobunaga was again advanced to high office, being named Minister of the Middle (Naidaijin). As before, Nobunaga assigned landed estates to import members of the regency lineage and the rest of the high nobility. To the imperial palace he offered two hundred gold, aloes wood, rolls of cloth, and a plenitude of other items, presenting these gifts to His Majesty's inspection. The emperor graciously deigned to bestow court garments on Nobunaga. There could be no honor greater than this."
Tenka no tame!
