To this day, there has been no word from Song Qianhun. The peddler has not been seen since his last appearance at Iron Gate Fort.
Li Banfeng doesn't know how many relatives or friends the peddler has. The peddler mentioned having more than one lover but never their names.
Where else can I investigate?
The Inner State claims there's going to be a war, so perhaps I should investigate the Inner State. Chu Shaoqiang's information might have come from there, too.
Li Banfeng first went to Ma Wu's territory and found Feng Daiku: "I would like to ask Luo Lijun some questions."
Feng Daiku said, "Can you tell me what it's about so I can also provide some help?"
Li Banfeng replied, "The Inner State might be mobilizing for war."
Feng Daiku was doubtful: "That shouldn't be possible. They were just defeated by the Outside Provinces and probably suffered significant losses. How dare they now challenge Puluo State?"
