The women in business conference (2)

Security at the palace hotel was tighter on this day than it had ever been before. Not even the engagement banquet of Muyang and Chi Lian had caused as much ruckus as this. Because of the wide spread news about the success of Yi Bori yesterday, more women had come pouring in, attempting to try their luck and attend the conference so that they could pitch their ideas or just have a chance to interact with the queen dowager. A few had containers carrying their home made sweets in the hopes that madam Jing could take a bite, fall in love and buy their recipes. Whatever reason brought them all, the ten dozen guards surrounding the entrance of the hotel were like walls, letting no one that was not verified through.

When the numbers became overwhelming, police had to be deployed at the venue to maintain security.
