Fujitsubo performed the memorial services on the anniversary of the old emperor in November. In the Twelfth Month, she organized the reading of eight scrolls. The reading on the first day was dedicated to her father, the late emperor, on the second to her mother, the empress, and on the third to her husband. The third day was a special day, and the monks read the climactic fifth scroll. Prince Hyobu and Genji made a procession with offerings. On the last day, Fujitusbo announced her intention of becoming a nun, which surprised all of them because of the suddenness.
