Chapter 500 Leaving Coruscant
498. Leaving Coruscant
If Count Dooku reported to him yesterday that Newt Gunray of the Trade Federation requested to kill Padmé- When Amidala signed the agreement, Palpatine just laughed it off, but now Palpatine really wants to cut Padmé into pieces and kill her!
Better add Newt Gunray!
One of these two guys is stupid and the other is bad. The stupid one didn't consider the political impact of assassinating Padmé Amidala at this time. The bad one took advantage of this to make a big fuss. , causing the "Military Creation Act" that had everything ready and only needed the east wind to be frustrated again.
However, in order to maintain his image as a guardian of peace, Palpatine could not forcefully pass the bill.
Of course, it is obviously impossible to kill Newt Gunray, so we still have to start with Padmé... Palpatine began to figure out how to deal with Padmé. Killing her is obviously No, this will make the Military Creation Act dead again, or...
Send her away?
After Padme's speech ended, the parliament once again entered into heated discussions. At this time, Sheev Palpatine smiled and said to Padmé: "I have postponed the vote on the Military Creation Act before. During this period, there may be lawbreakers around. , I think you should go back to the planet Naboo to avoid the limelight.”
“This is my battlefield, I will not leave! I will fight for peace to the end!” Deme-Amidala was extremely determined.
Seeing her determined expression, Palpatine sighed secretly, and the anger in his heart increased a little more.
......
As promised before, the Jedi Order sent Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker to personally protect Senator Padmé Amidala. .
At the same time, Zam-Wither, hired by the bounty hunter Jango Fett, also started taking action. She controlled a drone to quietly break open the door of Padmé's mansion at night. Two poisonous insects were sent in through the window.
With the protection of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, the assassination failed without a doubt. The two masters and apprentices chased her all the way, and were about to catch Zam-Wither, but she had already been silenced by Jango Fett, who knew that something was wrong.
Being assassinated twice in a day made the Jedi Order feel very shameless, although they have basically lost all face in the past ten years.
Master Windu also began to worry that such endless assassinations would one day succeed. After all, you can only be a thief for a thousand days and there is no way to guard against a thief for a thousand days. He tried to persuade Padmé Amidala to return to the planet Naboo, but Padmé's attitude was as firm as ever - she would not leave, absolutely not, even if she was killed.
Padme's heart is the same as that of Mirror. She knows that now is a good time to pursue the victory, and she must not give up and return to the planet Naboo halfway.
But this time, Palpatine had already seized the opportunity.
The Jedi Order divided Obi-Wan's master and apprentice into two groups. Obi-Wan Kenobi went to track down the assassination and find out who was behind it, while Anakin Skywalker continued to protect Paddock personally. plum.
At the same time, Master Windu asked Anakin to seek help from Chancellor Palpatine and let Palpatine convince Padmé.
Palpatine was ecstatic about this. He also wanted to get rid of Padmé but had no excuse. Now that the Jedi Order came over, it was time for him to sleep and meet the pillow. The Jedi Order wanted to find him to persuade Padmé to leave Coruscant, but little did he know that he was still waiting for the Jedi Order to help him convince Padmé!
He had a long talk with Anakin Skywalker, who came to negotiate, and reaffirmed Skywalker's talents and abilities, and repeatedly hinted to Anakin that he had surpassed Obi-Wan. . Anakin Skywalker was not very popular with the Jedi Order. He was already 10 years old when he joined the Jedi Order. He was too old, had rich emotions in his heart, and his talent in the Force was too amazing, so Master Windu The approach taken by Master Yoda is more of suppression.
They hope that through this method, Anakin can face up to his talents, control his emotions, and not become arrogant because of his strength.
In fact, although they disliked Anakin very much, Masters Windu and Yoda still devoted themselves to Anakin. As Anakin's talent gradually emerged, they began to believe that Anakin Skywalker was the chosen one. son's statement. As a result, they were more cautious about Anakin's training, and were often reluctant to send him on missions that were too dangerous, fearing that Anakin would have negative emotions during the mission.
But the Jedi Order was treading on thin ice, but they did not expect Chancellor Palpatine to come over and poach them frantically. The Jedi Order taught Anakin that he was no different from anyone else and needed to maintain a humble heart. But Chancellor Palpatine often takes the opportunity to teach Anakin when there is nothing wrong. Your talent is stronger than anyone else, and one day Master Yoda will be stepped on by you.
The Jedi Order taught Anakin that you should act cautiously, but Palpatine told Anakin that with your power, you can completely control it if you are more aggressive, and you can complete the task better. .
The Jedi Order did not allow Anakin to participate in missions that were too dangerous. Even in the previous border exploration plan, after discovering that Jolus Sebaoth was unreliable, Anakin and Obi were removed in advance. Wang called back. But Palpatine told Anakin that the Jedi Order did not let you go on missions because they looked down on you and because they were afraid that your talents would exceed theirs.
The saying "loyal advice is harsh to the ears" has been true from ancient times to the present.
Palpatine always speaks according to Anakin's wishes, which of course sounds much better. His unknowing poaching behavior made Anakin Skywalker's education in the Jedi Order in vain, and planted a seed in Anakin Skywalker's immature heart.
After being praised by Palpatine, Anakin Skywalker went to find Padmé Amidala with satisfaction.
At the same time, Speaker Palpatine also directly issued an executive order to Padmé Amidala, ordering her to leave Coruscant and return to the planet Naboo. In the "Military Creation Act" Come back when voting officially starts.
In the executive order, Palpatine also specifically mentioned that asking Padmé to leave Coruscant was the intention of the Jedi Order, and he was just following the trend.
The Jedi Order hoped that Palpatine would persuade Padmé to leave, but Palpatine issued an administrative order in the name of the Jedi Order to force Padmé to leave.
So it was the Jedi Order who took the blame again.
Padmé Amidala had absolutely no choice this time. She found the parliamentary assistant Jar Jar Binks and gave him many instructions, asking him to stand firm in his political stance. Don't let anyone take advantage of her. Wait until she returns to Coruscant.
Jar Jar Binks has matured a lot. He agreed wholeheartedly, patting his chest and saying that there would be no problem.
But what Padmé Amidala didn't expect was that a few months later, the problem would still be Jar Jar Binks.
At this moment, Padmé Amidala had already quietly boarded a passenger spacecraft with Anakin Skywalker as war refugees to prepare to leave.
Padmé, who was doing her homework in the ordinary cabin on the spaceship, suddenly heard a voice calling her, "Padmé, why are you here?"
