Doji Morito

Doji Morito was the Crane Clan Champion during the rule of Hantei XX. In 662 during winter court at Kyuden Doji Morito mocked the desperate plea made by the Crab Clan Champion Hida Tsuneko in front of the Emperor, asking to dismiss the punitive taxes the Crab Clan were paying. The Daidoji and the Yasuki Merchants had been fighting a trade war over rice, and it turned the Crane political power against the Crab.
