Chapter 489: Parliamentary Murder

489, Parliamentary Murder

"It seems that you have more potential to become a Sith than Edela..." Tang Xiao smiled slightly, "How did you think of killing Vandalo?"

"This is your request. Besides, he is no longer useful to me. He is just a bounty hunter. If I hadn't been desperate, I wouldn't have followed him. And he just coveted my body. That's all.

I hope you won’t be like him in the future, otherwise, I will abandon you without hesitation.” Severance Tann smiled coldly.

"Very smart, but...it sounds like you 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 if 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 Lasax to sign an agreement with Count Dooku. You can 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 my navy commander-in-chief Igor

-Zavalov is already old, so the new commander-in-chief of the navy will be born between the two of you. Don’t let me down."



22BBY, Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic, the Capitol.

In the always bustling parliament building, there was silence today. Today, the parliament did not meet. All the members hid in their offices and remained silent...

Hundreds of security ships from the Republic's Ministry of Public Security were gathered around the Capitol, and thousands of police officers were searching the building. The Speaker'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 usually safe Galactic Republic Parliament! Without any warning, a violent explosion occurred in a corner of the parliament building! Including Ak, the parliamentary assistant from Malastar Planet

Five members of Congress, including S-Moi, were killed, and the murderer could not be found at all. It was not even known how the murderer got in!

As soon as the murder case came out, the entire Galactic Republic was shocked, and for some unknown reason, the Republic's media, which had always been silent on such news in the past, seemed to have received first-hand information this time, and reported the murder case vigorously.

, for a time everyone in Coruscant was in danger.

This was especially true for the congressmen, who 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 come out to claim 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, and soon, almost everyone began to believe that it was separatists who murdered these few people.

A congressman!

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, lawmakers began to seriously discuss how to quell the 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 and are still in charge of science and technology.

Lausanne lived a life of luxury and entertainment. It was only now, after the murder, that they really thought about how to solve this problem. In the final analysis, they were just worried that their luxurious life would be affected.

Ainle Tim, the councilor of the planet Malastar, found Francis Underwood worriedly and told him that Ax Moi's death was likely to affect the planet Malastar.

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 accelerated efforts by the Senate to reorganize the military and sparked a crisis of confidence in the Jedi Order.

Ainle-Tim, a member of the Malastar planet who believed that this murder disrupted his diplomatic plans, publicly accused the Jedi Order of incompetence and inaction in the parliament. He compared this murder to what happened 11 years ago.

Links at the Eriadu Business Summit said this was a sign of incompetence on the part of the Jedi Order.

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 a loyal lackey of Palpatine, 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 people in the Council are targeting the Jedi.

The words spoken by the Order are also dangerous. I warned Ainle-Tim about this, for no one can accuse our Guardians at any time."

"I am very grateful for your trust, Mr. Speaker." Master Windu is still very grateful for this, unlike the former Speaker Finis Valorina who directly passed the blame to the Jedi Order after the Eriadu Business Summit incident.

The difference is that Palpatine is really helping them speak in the council, and Master Windu also sees 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, are you really preparing for war?"

"I must do this, Master Windu. I absolutely cannot tolerate the republic that has existed for 25,000 years being divided into two. I have never given up my efforts for peace, but when things have developed to the point where they are now, I really must start to do a good job.

Preparation for war.”

"If you really get to this point, you must realize that we do not have enough Jedi Knights to protect the Republic. We are defenders of peace, but not soldiers." Master Windu said.

"That's what I'm thinking about - 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.
