Demanding a thorough investigation by the Imperial City Guard is insufficient.

The emperor issued an edict to Li Guang, ordering him to supervise the various prefectures and counties of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun to strictly investigate and deal with this matter.

That wasn't enough. The emperor also sent a handwritten edict to Zhong Shizhong and Yao Gu, ordering them to also spare some manpower to cooperate with Li Guang in investigating the matter.

Of course, Zhao Huan felt that this was not enough.

After reading Sima Junru's letter, the first thing he did was to summon Xu Churen and Yao Xiping, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, and give them a task: to write the crime of human trafficking and the punishment methods into the Song Dynasty law.

Anyone found guilty of human trafficking shall be executed by slow slicing!

And it must be at least two thousand dollars!

The entire clan was exiled to the frontier!

This is not enough; it cannot quell the emperor's hatred!

He then gave Sima Junru another order: do everything in his power to erase the fact that the cannibalism in the capital had occurred; if the funds are insufficient, just apply for more!

After receiving the emperor's decree, Sima Junru began to launch a counterattack against the capital.

You dare to plant spies in Tokyo? You're really taking advantage of the fact that the Imperial City Guard is powerless!

In fact, the Jin Dynasty court had debated the issue of cannibalism.

The Jin court is currently divided into two factions: one is the Sinicization faction represented by Wanyan Zongpan, and the other is the pure Jurchen faction represented by Wanyan Gao.

Wanyan Gao believed that the Jurchens should not learn Han Chinese culture, but should be tough on the Song Dynasty. He argued that they should send a large army to invade, break through the Song borders, occupy the Central Plains, seize Jiangnan, and unify China!

Wanyan Zongpan, however, believed that the present situation was no longer like the Jurchen tribal era. The Jin dynasty had taken over a large area of ​​land and population from the Liao dynasty. If effective management was not implemented, the Jin state would fall apart.

If you want to govern a country well, you must learn from the Han people's way of governing. Otherwise, everyone will obediently go back to hunting and fishing and continue their previous hard life!
