The story takes place on the banks of the Qinhuai River in Jinling City.
There are poems to prove it:
The Epang Palace is called a beauty, but who knows the beauties of Qinhuai and Six Dynasties?
The green poplar trees are blown by the wind, and the kite flies through the painting, and the bright red moon is walking on the Hongqiao.
Canglang hears the drum every night, and the pavilion blows the whistle every year.
Finally, before the eight lines of writing were finished, another wine flag was seen waving at the crossing.
