In the court, there were continuous memorials to the princes, especially from the Prince of Linjiang.
At first, the clan members and nobles in Chang'an did not take this matter seriously. As the situation became more and more serious, they began to realize that something was wrong.
After the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, Chao Cuo died. The court did not mention the reduction of the feudal system, but strengthened the control over the princes, rather than letting them go as before. Reporting happened from time to time, and it was not uncommon. However, it was rare for someone like the Prince of Linjiang to be reported for inviting officials to a banquet in his mansion, and for the prince's mansion to report to Chang'an at the slightest sign of trouble.
Although Emperor Jingdi suppressed all the memorials and had not reprimanded the emperor so far, nor summoned Prince Linjiang to face him, many people still smelled something unusual.
The officials of the feudal state accused the King of Linjiang of occupying the ancestral temple land to build a palace. If the evidence is solid, the crime is indeed serious. How to deal with it in the end depends on the mind of Emperor Jing.
