Wang Qinan, the executive producer and chief producer of the series, revealed that some trees and houses in the production are replicated from those depicted in Zhang Zeduan's paintings.

By inviting nearly 30 scholars from various fields, including ancient architecture, shipbuilding, and etiquette, and seeking consultation from experts at Beijing's Palace Museum, the drama vividly re-creates the street life landscape during the Song Dynasty, including scenes ranging from the selling of makeup products to small restaurants.

Zhao Guoying, president of the China Forbidden City Society, said that the society's experts were sent twice to guide during filming and expressed hope that the TV series will spark the younger generation's interest in ancient architecture.
