Xu Luo's engagement ceremony was not as bustling as Xu Su's wedding. Not many people were notified; the attendees were mostly the families of Xu Luo's sworn brothers and some relatives of the Xu Family.
Even so, the entire Xu Mansion was still bustling with activity and festively decorated. Many uninvited guests, having heard the news, also came, hoping to curry favor with the Xu Family.
The two branches of the Xu Family in the Imperial Capital were now both at their zenith. Although Duke Jingguo Xu Zhongtian was gone, Xu Jie's presence ensured that the Duke Jingguo's Mansion remained a towering institution in the public's mind. Furthermore, everyone knew that the Supreme Emperor and Xu Jie were sworn brothers. As long as the Supreme Emperor lived, the status of the Duke Jingguo's Mansion was unshakeable.
