    I am Emperor Jing of Han, I was the sixth emperor of the Han dynasty from 157 to 141 BC. My reign saw the limiting of the power of the feudal kings and princes which resulted in the Rebellion of the Seven States in 154 BC. I managed to crush the revolt and princes were thereafter denied rights to appoint ministers for their fiefs. This move helped to consolidate central power which paved the way for the long reign of my son Emperor Wu of Han.
