How was the growth of independence of the German princes from the emperor manifested?

In feudal society, the principle “my vassal’s vassal is not my vassal” became very widespread.

Actually, the independence of the German princes from the emperor was based on it. The prince had complete power over his land, and the emperor simply said when he needed to pay and when to go on a military campaign (if some kind of dangerous situation for the country happened).
