Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 498: Political Genius

Regarding her own assassination, Padmé Amidala also had her own judgment, "This assassination must have been done by Count Dooku, just like a month ago, he hoped to bring fear to our Republic Senate."

Master Windu on the side shook his head and said: "I think you have some misunderstanding about Count Dooku, Senator Amidala. Dooku was once a highly respected Jedi Knight. He may have devoted himself to politics, and he may not agree with our political views, but he will never kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Padmé frowned. She didn't expect that Master Windu would excuse Count Dooku. On this occasion, she didn't want to refute Master Windu in front of Master Yoda and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, so she just replied lightly, "Let's wait and see."

...

At this moment, in a building where the Senate Building can be seen from a distance, a Bounty Hunter wearing Full-Body Armor made of Mandalorian Steel is talking, and the Holographic Projection of the Communicator impressively projects Count Dooku's face. figure.

"The assassination failed. The bomb I placed on the tarmac did not kill Padmé, but her substitute." This person was Jango Fett, the most outstanding Bounty Hunter in the Galaxy.

"Don't let this matter drag on for too long, it's just a young woman. There's nothing difficult about it. Get rid of her as soon as possible, so we can sign an agreement with the Trade Federation." Count Dooku said.

"I've made arrangements for the second mover, and the Bounty Hunter Zam Weiser will take the next step. Padmé, she won't see the sun tomorrow." Jango Fett replied.

"Go ahead, I will use some Coruscant connections to mess things up and create some opportunities for you." Count Dooku waved his hand and cut off the communication.

...

Soon, the news that Padmé Amidala, a Senator of the Naboo, was assassinated on the tarmac of the Galactic Republic's Senate building spread throughout Coruscant various versions of Padmé Amidala's obituary.

For a while, the fear of war once again enveloped everyone's heart.

At the same time, the meetings in the Galactic Senate did not stop. After Palpatine announced that Senator Amidala had been assassinated, and directly used the Supreme Chancellor's power to delay the vote until the next day, he left in a hurry to conduct emergency consultations with the Jedi Order.

However, those Senators of the Senate who have already geared up to show their strengths and achieve their political goals in this "Military Creation Act" have not stopped, and they are still arguing in the Senate.

Some pre-arranged demonstrations by various factions have also walked near the Senate Building. They held up their respective slogans and yelled at other parades. However, under the maintenance of a large number of Military Police, things have not gotten out of control.

Ask Aak, the Senator Assistant of Malastare shouted loudly, because the death of Senator Amidala showed the necessity of the "Military Creation Act", otherwise such assassinations would happen again and again.

Under such circumstances, those Senators of the opposition can only remain silent, because they themselves are afraid of being assassinated.

At this moment, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine returned to the venue again, and he once again became the focus of everyone's attention. He opened his hands and said loudly: "No matter how difficult it is, the purpose of our Senate is still to promote peace! I emphasize once again that the purpose of the "Military Creation Act" is not for war, but for peace!"

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, he did not clarify to the Senators whether Senator Amidala was still alive.

At this time, the Pro-Pilitary Senator, Candabrin Bu from Planet Lansono, stood up and publicly accused Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, "Sir, you have exceeded your authority by directly announcing the postponement of the vote before! You must Explain that!"

"I have already said that the purpose of the Senate of the Republic is fairness and justice, and in the face of security threats, postponing voting is a normal procedure," Palpatine replied with a smile.

At this moment, a crisp voice suddenly came from the entrance of the Senate, "On this matter, I support your point of view, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine."

Everyone looked over immediately and found that it was Padmé Amidala who was rumored to have been assassinated! The entire Senate hall was suddenly silent.

Amidala took the Anti-Gravity Platform all the way to the center of the venue. She first exchanged glances with her partner, Alderaan Senator Bail Organa, who held the same position as her, and the latter nodded to the Press Officer beside her. The Press Officer understood and released a Camera Drone to aim at Amidala.

This means that Padmé Amidala's next speech will be a public speech, which will be sent to all Major Media across the Galaxy.

Palpatine had some bad premonitions in his heart, but because Padmé's behavior was reasonable and legal, he couldn't forcefully terminate it. Moreover, Padmé put a high hat on him just after he came in, which made him unable to get off the stage. At this time, there was no way to stop Padmé's behavior.

In front of many Senators and in front of public cameras, Amidala did not have the slightest stage fright, and said loudly: "As you can see, I did not die in the assassination! Tthis assassination also exposed those who opposed the fear in the hearts of people with my political stance! It is because of my existence that they can't wait to take extreme actions, and I am fearless..."

She talked to the camera, making full use of the influence of this assassination. She blamed Count Dooku, Separatism, and all those political enemies who wanted to pass the "Military Creation Act" were put on their heads.

This speech was unexpected by Sheev Palpatine. He did not expect that he was still in his office just now because of the assassination incident. The reason why Padmé Amidala actually turned around and put the hat of the assassination on her political opponents!

You must know that Padmé Amidala's political enemies include his own supporters like the "Loyalty Committee". Padmé's statement, on the contrary, put Palpatine's own political forces on fire!

This has once again cast a shadow over the already certain "Military Creation Act".

Padmé Amidala was still talking to the camera. At this time, although Supreme Chancellor Palpatine still had a smile on his face, he secretly clenched his fists, already extremely angry.

Padmé Amidala is indeed an idealist full of justice, but on the other hand, she is still a very good political genius!
