Mostly shot in Hengdian World Studios in East China's Zhejiang province, the drama used around 10 "palaces" in Hengdian's scenic area, featuring the architectural characteristics of the Ming and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties. Additionally, the crew built an interior for shangshiju, the bureau which could be roughly considered as the emperor's kitchen, on a soundstage covering an area of 6,000 square meters, according to Luan.

The drama is garnering positive feedback overseas, earning a rating of 8.2 points out of 10 on the fan-driven, specialist Asian movie and TV show aggregator site, MyDramaList.
