Chapter 95: The Stubborn Lin Pingzhi

Whether the thief really had taste was unknown to Ye Weiming, but he did have Wei Xiaobao reproduce those stolen calligraphy and paintings, each and every one of them, into exact replicas.

In the world of art, identical imitations are referred to as forgeries, and the process of creating them is called counterfeiting.

Given that the original artworks were no longer available, Ye Weiming didn't insist on the counterfeits being indistinguishable from the originals, as long as they looked approximately 80 to 90% similar.

He planned to use these items to probe into the real situation of the Red Cloud Manor.

Upon leaving the Imperial Palace, Ye Weiming immediately sent his private messenger Yin Bukui a pigeon post to inquire about relevant matters.

The latter reported that the theft from the Imperial Palace was fairly common in martial arts novels, and it could happen in so many ways that he didn't know where to start explaining.
