489: Murder in Parliament

“It seems that you have more potential to become a Sith than Edela...” Tang Xiao smiled slightly, “Why do you Thinking of killing Fandalo? "

"This is your request. Besides, he is no longer useful to me. He is just a bounty hunter. If I were not desperate at that time, I would not follow him. He, and he just covets my body. I just hope that you will not be like him in the future, otherwise, I will abandon you without hesitation." Severance Tann smiled coldly.

"Very smart, but... from what you say, it seems that you also want to hand over your body to me?" Tang Xiao said with a smile.

"If you think it is necessary, you can always do it. For me, the body is just a tool. Remember to tell me when you want it. Humans and Chiss are actually from the same source, and there is almost no difference in genes. You know ." Severance Tann gave Tang Xiao an ambiguous look and turned around to leave.

"Just in time, I'm going to the main planet of LSx to sign an agreement with Count Dooku. You come with me. On the way, I will teach you some preliminary skills in using the Force." Tang Xiao said, "In addition, I now have three fleets. Fleet C is my royal fleet, and its main task is to defend the Endor system. The commander of fleet A is Matt Horner, and you will become the commander of fleet B. Now I The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Igor Zavalov, is old, so the new Commander-in-Chief of the Navy will be born between the two of you. Don’t let me down.”


< br>22BBY, Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic, the Capitol.

The Parliament Building, which has always been bustling with activity, was completely silent today. Today, the Parliament was not in session. Those congressmen were all hiding in their offices, keeping silent...

Hundreds of security spacecraft from the Republic's Ministry of Public Security were gathered around the Capitol, and thousands of police officers were searching the building. Chancellor's Guards in red armor also surrounded Sheev Palpatine's office.

The reason why the situation is so tense is that a murder actually occurred in the Galactic Republic Parliament, which has always been safe! Without warning, a violent explosion occurred in a corner of the Parliament Building! Five congressmen, including Ax-Moy, the congressman's assistant from Malastar Planet, were killed, and the murderer could not be found at all, and he did not even know how the murderer got in!

As soon as the murder case came out, the entire Galactic Republic was shocked, and for unknown reasons, the Republic’s media, which had always been silent about such news in the past, seemed to have received first-hand information this time. The murder was widely reported, and for a time everyone on Coruscant was in danger.

This is especially true for those congressmen. They were horrified to discover that they were not safe on Coruscant!

Speaker Sheev Palpatine immediately stood up to maintain order and ordered the Sheriff's Department to solve the case within a time limit.

However, the murderer has never been found, and even some terrorist organizations that are usually very active have not claimed responsibility for the murder, which makes the case even more confusing.

At this time, many people began to speculate whether the murder was committed by separatists. As soon as this speculation came out, it spread immediately. Soon, almost everyone began to believe that it was separatists who murdered these congressmen!

At this moment, the terror of separatism once again shrouded the sky of Coruscant, and those fat-headed congressmen discovered that the war was so close to them!

For a time, a wave of condemnation of the separatist movement once again set off in the parliament. This time, members began to seriously discuss how to quell this crisis.

This is a complete irony. The separatist movement has been around for a full 10 years. During this period, countless civilians and planets have been affected. However, these congressmen still hold on to their power. Don't let go, still living a life of entertainment and entertainment on Coruscant. And it's only now, after the murder happened, that they really thought about how to solve this problem. In the end, they were just worried that their luxurious life would be affected.

Ainle Tim, the councilor of the Malastar planet, approached Francis Underwood worriedly and told him that Ax Moi's death was likely to affect the Malastar planet. position, because Ax-Moy exists as a bridge between the Gran and the Dagur on their planet. Once he dies, the relationship between the Dagur and the Dagur will become increasingly tense. Francis Underwood simply told Ainle-Tim that the day was approaching and they would not have much time in Parliament.

The murder prompted the Senate to accelerate efforts to reorganize the military and caused a crisis of confidence in the Jedi Order.

Einle-Tim, a member of the planet Malastar who believed that the murder disrupted his diplomatic plans, publicly accused the Jedi Order of incompetence and inaction in the parliament. He described the murder as The case was linked to the Eriadu Business Summit 11 years ago, saying it was a manifestation of the Jedi Order's incompetence.

He started this, and many other senators followed suit, accusing the Jedi Order of being unable to protect the Republic.

So since the Jedi Order cannot protect the Republic, the Republic can only protect itself.

Proposed for review by Deputy Speaker Mas Ameda, who has become Palpatine's loyal lackey, the "Military Creation Act" has been put on the agenda again and is ready to be discussed at a meeting in the near future.

That evening, Chancellor Sheev Palpatine visited the Jedi Temple again and had an in-depth conversation with Master Mace Windu.

"I'm afraid we have to think about this possibility, Master Windu...war." Palpatine said with a worried look on his face and a long sigh, "The forces of separatism are getting more and more crazy, and Some of the statements made against the Jedi Order in the Council were also dangerous, and I warned Ainle-Tim about this, because no one can blame our Guardians at any time."

"I am very grateful for your trust, Mr. Speaker." Master Windu is still very grateful for this. He and the former Speaker Fenis Valorina directly passed the blame to the Jedi Order after the Eriadu Business Summit incident. The approach was different. Palpatine really helped them speak in the parliament, and Master Windu also noticed this.

"I will make diplomatic efforts again in the near future. I still hope to have face-to-face negotiations with Count Dooku. I wonder if the Jedi Order can facilitate this?" Palpatine asked.

"I'm afraid not, Mr. Speaker. Count Dooku has also cut off all ties with our Jedi Order. But I will continue to try. But for the current situation, you are really engaged in war. Are you ready?"

"I must be so, Master Windu. I will never tolerate the 25,000-year-old republic being divided into two. I have never given up my efforts for peace, but things have developed. At this point, I really have to start preparing for war."

"If it comes to this, you have to realize that we don't have enough Jedi to protect the Republic, and we are at peace. A defender, but not a soldier," Master Windu said.

"That's what I'm considering too - raising an army to help you." Palpatine said.

"Use the army to help us..." Master Windu thought about these meaningful words and said nothing more for a long time.
