藤原時平(ふじわらのしへい)の陰謀(いんぼう)によって流罪(るざい)になり、兄弟は梅王丸(うめおうまる)・桜丸(さくらまる)・松王丸(まつおうまる)である

'Sugawara and the Secrets of Calligraphy' (Sugawara Denju Tenarai Kagami) is one of the three masterpieces of Kabuki, themed on the banishment of Sugawara no Michizane (Kan Shojo). Although he was an outstanding politician, he was falsely accused through the conspiracy of his rival Fujiwara no Shihei and exiled to Dazaifu. The lives of the triplet brothers who owed him gratitude—Umeomaru, Sakuramaru, and Matsuomaru—were also thrown into chaos by this event.
