The edict of the reforms in the feudal lord system spread like wildfire. The landowners who exploited the peasants that worked for their field began to protest the decision to cap the crop proceed limit.
It would hurt their revenue and profit a lot since they would still have to pay the same tax on the land. In reality, the land tax was a tiny amount for these feudal lords, who took more than 90% of the crop proceeds from the lands.
The protest fell short quickly, as none of the big nobles were even willing to go against the decision of the Emperor. The big nobles didn't try to get on the bad side of the Emperor, especially knowing that Harsha could wipe them out with a single wave of his hand.
Feudal lords that were plotting something unnecessary were quickly silenced by the internal affairs team of Karna. The rumors quickly spread that some feudal lords committed suicide in the comfort of their homes.
