His proper name was Okisada (居 贞). He was the second son of Reizei - tennō. He was the father of Empress Teishi, who was the mother of the Go - Sanjō - tennō the wife of the Go- Suzaku - tennō and.
His political base was not strong. His father was ill and his mother's family had almost no power. In his time the politicians Fujiwara no Michinaga strengthened. Sanjō hoped to make his son emperor, and Michinaga it promised, but after the death Sanjōs suppressed Michinaga the Crown Prince politically and contained the son Sanjōs arbitrarily the promised throne before.
Like his father, was also Sanjō sick. At the end of his life he became blind.
