The imperial house, while in theory owning all of the country, had no income. They existed on the sufferance of the Shogun. While the shogun would never intentionally harm the emperor, or at least be seen to, he would let the emperor know in no uncertain terms that his duties lay in prayer for the wellbeing of Nippon (or Wa), Confucian philosophy, and poetry, not in governance.
