The record of the Dajō Daijin-den Sanjikkō Uta-awase (太政大臣殿三十講歌合), dating from the fifth month of Chōho 5 (1003 in the Julian calendar) calls him "the former governor of Higo" (前肥後守).

[2]
He fathered the Confucianist and kanshi poet Fujiwara no Akihira. [1] According to a document (奏状 sōjō) [a] presented by Akihira to the emperor, [3] his father was unfortunate in his later years, [1] and became a Buddhist monk. [1]

He took part in various uta-awase contests, [4] including the Ichijō Dainagon-ke Uta-awase (一条大納言家歌合), [3] the Kanna Ninen Dairi Uta-awase in Kanna 2 (986) [3] and the Dajō Daijin-den Sanjikkō Uta-awase. [3]
One [2] of his Chinese poems was included in the Honchō Reisō. [1]
