Chapter 1233: The Supreme Speaker and the Irritable Padmé

a month later...

In Senator Padmé Amidala's suite on the surface of Coruscant, which is still on the top floor of a certain building and has floor-to-ceiling windows to watch the beautiful scenery of the planet, Padmé Amidala While packing up his things bitterly, he complained loudly to Jar Jar Binks, who is also a member of Naboo, and visiting Anakin:

"You saw it!"

"Unexpectedly, this time I tried everything possible to come to Coruscant, but it still didn't work at all!"

Looking out of the window, the dishwashing levitating robot is dutifully replacing the new bulletproof glass, and replacing the old glass that was cracked like a spider web and has a hideous bullet hole. The certain kind of glass Padme just mentioned The thought of staying here in Coruscant couldn't help but be extinguished again.

The hideous bullet hole and the damaged large floor-to-ceiling window glass that was being replaced were the result of a bounty hunter trying to kill her from a long distance last night...

The special bullet was shot from somewhere hundreds of meters away and easily pierced through the special bulletproof glass, and almost hit her who just came out of the shower wiping her wet hair! But fortunately, there was a female Jedi warrior present at the time. The other party foresaw in advance and cut the incoming solid bullet in half with a single sword, allowing her to narrowly avoid that dangerous sniper attack.

But even though she avoided it, the female Jedi who protected her was injured in her shoulder and abdomen, and it is said that she almost died?

Therefore, in order not to continue to drag others down here, and to prevent those Jedi knights who wanted to protect her from increasing casualties, she decided to temporarily follow the advice of the elders of the Jedi Council and go back to Naboo first. After all, the members of the Galactic Council That vote has ended, and she has no role here on the planet Coruscant. It is obviously safer for her to return to Naboo than to stay in Coruscant.

"It's not that they don't know the current situation of our Galactic Republic, it's a question of ideology!"

"It's been a whole ten years, and it's not that the separatists have not been attacked by the powerful warships and troops of the Federation of Heroes back then! But you have also seen that as soon as the Federation troops withdrew, they made a comeback and simply relied on war to suppress them. That will never solve any problems, it is an extremely wrong behavior, and it will only drag the Milky Way into a more chaotic quagmire of war! But in the end, knowing that it would be like that, they still passed the vote and let the Supreme Speaker win Powers of emergency military action and powers of war beyond parliament?"

"Jar Jar Binks..."

"You were used by them, you really shouldn't have issued that vote!"

talking and talking

Padmé stopped, and looked helplessly towards the Gungan Jar Jar Binks who had just bowed her head deeply and was still a little at a loss.

To be honest, Padmé never expected that she would be on defense day and night, but she never expected that the final problem would be her family member Jar Jar Binks, so that her appeal in the parliament And shouting is like a joke, but it makes many of her allies feel a little bit suspicious of her?

Think about it too, everyone has clearly agreed in advance to maintain peace and oppose the Supreme Speaker to get more power, but the result? At the end of the day, Naboo's congressmen are on the side of the war faction. How does this make her, the leader of the so-called freedom and peace faction, deal with herself? !

"Feel sorry!"

"Senator, I really didn't mean it, I thought..."

Obviously, Jar Jar Binks, who thought he was smart and did some inappropriate things, looked a little frustrated, and he basically realized at this time that he seemed to be deceived by those cunning guys!

"never mind!"

"Things have already happened, so it's useless to say anything now."

"However, I may be away from Coruscant for a long time..."

"During this period, my responsibilities in the Senate will be entrusted to you, Jar Jar Binks... After I leave, you will be Naboo's plenipotentiary senator. You not only represent you Gungans, but also On behalf of the entire Naboo, I hope you can perform your duties well and not be influenced by those people again?"

Padmé's expression still looks a little angry, but nothing has happened, what else can she do? After all, she never thought that her people would be bewitched by those guys and do something stupid, and it was still under her nose?

Now, what she should be more worried about is how to explain to the queen after returning to Naboo... Before, they held a special meeting to seriously discuss how to deal with separatism, but in the end On the contrary, Naboo's senator single-handedly contributed to the war. Where does this make Padmé, the ex-queen who claims to be experienced in fighting, and the current Naboo senator face?

Although it wasn't her fault, it would definitely be unrealistic to say that she was not responsible for anything!

"I am really sorry……"

"But Senator Amidala, don't worry, I will definitely do the next thing well, and I promise not to make mistakes again!"

Jar Jar Binks kept his posture so low that he didn't dare to meet Padmé's eyes at all, and he didn't dare to raise his head, so that his huge ears almost fell to the floor.

"..."

"Anakin, to be honest, I really don't want to hide like this. When will I be hiding?"

Padmé, who didn't intend to hit Jar Jar Binks anymore, thought about it, then sighed, and didn't criticize the other party too much, but felt that there was nothing to explain, and then turned to look at the listener. When he was attacked again and had to leave Coruscant, he hurried to visit Anakin.

Speaking of which, she had stayed in Coruscant for such a long period of time, and this was the first time the other party came to visit her. How could she not feel resentful?

"I also know it's not good to be so passive all the time..."

"But there is no way, Padme, you have been assassinated several times during your stay in Coruscant. Last night was the most dangerous one. Things can't go on like this. You have also seen the enemy's assassination methods. They are endless and hard to guard against, so far two powerful Jedi knights have been seriously injured, there will always be times when we miss, and then you will be in danger!"

Finally, seeing that Padmé stopped making troubles and reprimanding that poor Jar Jar Binks, and saw the other party looking at him, Anakin smiled and comforted the other party.

They have seen the horror and rampantness of those bounty hunters before! Those guys really can do anything for money... Even if Padmé stayed in the capital Coruscant and was heavily protected by several Jedi knights, he dared to be cruel, so Anakin himself I don't feel relieved that Padmé will continue to stay here.

"Anyway, Padmé, you're going back to Naboo sooner or later. Now it's just going back a while earlier, so stop complaining."

"Besides, the environment on Naboo is much better than here on Coruscant. It just so happens that you are always in fear during this time. It might be a good choice to go back to Naboo to recuperate for a while?"

Perhaps, only after the Trade Union and the Separatist Alliance are defeated, no one will pay for the huge bounty after the Governor of the Trade Union who offered a huge bounty on Padmé's head was captured or defeated, and Padmé's Life will gradually return to normal, right?

But Anakin doesn't know when that normal life will come. Even if the Republic immediately launches a war against the remnants of the Trade Union and the Separatist Alliance, it will be a protracted process. Those who can intervene, at least not what he can intervene now.

"All right!"

"I don't want to argue with you about that kind of thing, but I still want to congratulate you, Anakin, you are now finally an official Jedi Knight!"

"I heard from Obi-Wan that the elders thought you were qualified, so they let you finish your apprenticeship and become a real Jedi?"

Padmé, who no longer wanted to discuss those troublesome things, smiled and congratulated Anakin directly. That sweet smile from the heart made Anakin stunned for a moment.

"Um!"

"Thank you! Padmé..."

Opened his mouth, Anakin, who originally wanted to say something, thought that the other party would leave Coruscant and return to Naboo soon, and he didn't know when he would see the other party next time, so he couldn't help but casually responded in frustration, It's like being infected with the negative emotions by Jar Jar Binks.

"That kind of thing, you should have told me immediately!"

"But this is not an example! Now, I have almost packed my things. After all, you also know that we didn't bring anything when we came to Coruscant, didn't we?"

Perhaps because of the premonition of Anakin's reluctance for the two to part, Padmé didn't know what to say at this time other than pretending to be relaxed and forced a smile... , and there is a JJ Binks annoying guy, even if she wants to indulge a little bit before leaving, give each other a big hug or kiss or something, she becomes restrained.

"So……"

"Have they decided now? Who will escort me back this time? Anakin, if it's still you, I think maybe I might be more cooperative?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was still a bit gloomy, Padmé blinked playfully and teased Anakin. Although, she herself felt a little unlikely? After all, that kind of thing is not something she or Anakin can decide, they are just a group of people who can't help themselves, and some things can only be left to chance.

"..."

"I don't know, Padmé, the matter of arranging your guards is decided by the elders, but if you wish, I think I should be able to fight for it, although it may not necessarily lead to results..."

Anakin himself was a little apprehensive about this.

Although he is now an official Jedi Knight due to some "record" reasons, he is still just a Jedi Knight who can't help himself, and he still has no say in the Jedi Temple. Still under the control of the temple and the elders, some things really cannot be changed by him.

And this is also one of the reasons why he is carrying out his secret plan and eagerly wants to truly change and control his own destiny.

"Um……"

Padmé responded with some disappointment, but didn't say much.

She also knew that what Anakin said was the truth, and why wasn't she the same? No matter when she was the queen of Naboo before or she is now a senator, most of the things she encounters are not based on her will. She is often involuntary and has to force herself to restrain herself. Own.

'There is no need to fight for it! '

‘Just in time, the Presbyterian Council has just made the final decision! '

Just when Padmé and Anakin were a little frustrated about the issue of escort candidates, Yoda of the Jedi Temple, Master Mace Windu, and the rarely seen Supreme Speaker Palpatine and others went hand in hand. So, have you all come to Padmé's official residence to visit?

"Anakin!"

"Now that the council's resolution has come to an end, the elders will decide after discussion, or you will be responsible for escorting Senator Amidala back to Naboo. She is obviously safer there than in Coruscant?"

"remember!"

"Don't use any registered spacecraft or means of transportation to go back. You should directly use the method of smuggling. This matter is fully responsible and decided by you. Don't tell anyone the time, route and method of your departure, including us!"

"Then, after escorting Senator Amidala to Naboo, you will be fully responsible for ensuring her safety on Naboo until the elders give you new tasks and instructions. Do you understand? ?”

It seems that I heard the conversation between Padmé and Anakin just now, so just walked in, taking advantage of the opportunity of Padmé to greet the Supreme Speaker, Master Mace Windu directly looked at the person who seemed a little surprised. Anakin exhorted.

"!!"

"Ah? Yes! Master Windu, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to ensure Senator Amidala's safety!"

In ecstasy, Anakin hurriedly responded loudly, and turned his head quietly, and looked at Padme, who was also a little surprised, knowingly.

You know, he is still worried about how he will find a chance to speak to the elders. Now that it is all right, he can escort Padmé back to Naboo, and then he can carry out his own mission near Naboo. Great plan still in slow execution.

'Senator Amidala...'

'Although I know that you are not satisfied with that proposal, but... there is no way, the Republic can't go on in such chaos, we always need to do something. '

'But the speaker! '

'In the galaxy, start a civil war in our country, that will not end well! You have also seen the crusade against the Trade Federation by the Great Republic Army organized by the Federation of Heroes back then. It has only been a few years, and the Milky Way is in such a mess! '

'I still stick to my point of view: we should use a peaceful way to deal with the issue of the separatist alliance! '

'No……'

‘We have tried the way of peaceful negotiation, but you have also seen the result. Not only did they not accept it, but they even intensified and persuaded more galaxies to join them. Therefore, we can no longer sit idly by. '

'! ! '

‘But Speaker, maybe our method was wrong at the time, or we can propose more favorable conditions? '

'No! '

"Senator Amidala..."

'Whether you accept it or not, the war has begun now when those Separatist alliances have been entangled with the remnants of the Trade Federation. '

'But……'

On the side, Padmé seems to have had some disputes with the Palpatine supreme speaker who took over a few years ago, so that the two even quarreled over some things?

But fortunately, it seems that Padmé can't compete with the old and cunning speaker, so after arguing for a while, the speaker Palpatine simply turned his head and turned to Ah, who had finished talking with Yoda and Mace Windu. Nagin praised:

"Congratulations, young Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker... This time will be your first job after officially becoming a Jedi Knight in name, please remember to protect Senator Amidala's Safety."

Taking a few steps forward, Speaker Palpatine reached out and patted Anakin on the shoulder.

"yes!"

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will definitely!!"

"very good!"

"Anakin, you are the most potential Jedi warrior I have ever seen, and the facts have proved... However, I believe that you will become stronger and become invincible!"

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Excellency the Speaker!"

"You're going to be the greatest Jedi, Anakin . . . even better than the Masters out there?"

"Thanks!"

"I will work hard, Your Excellency the Speaker!"

If it was in the past, Anakin would have been flattered by the other party's praise, but now...he just smiled and nodded lightly, and then he just responded passively, and didn't intend to say anything more. say what.

"but……"

"Anakin, in the past year, it seems that you rarely go to chat with me... What, what did I do that disgusted you? If so, you might as well say it now, let's But we've been friends since ten years ago, haven't we?"

"If you have any dissatisfaction, just say it directly, there is no need to estimate."

Although there were quite a lot of people here, Speaker Palpatine asked kindly in front of the two Jedi masters with a look of complete indifference.

"No!"

"Respect Your Excellency Speaker, I just don't want to waste your time, really!"

Hearing that the other party asked such a thing, Anakin hurriedly explained.

Anyway, he wouldn't say: he's been busy managing the No. 0 bug swarm for the past year, and he's been thinking about replacing the position of the other party's supreme speaker all day long, and he even wants to get more, so he doesn't want to listen to what the speaker said Boring spiel?

After all, it doesn't matter how nice the other party is, can they give him what Anakin wants? Obviously, the other party can't, and what he wants can only be won by his own strength forever! That being the case, Anakin naturally had no desire to find the other party, and this was why the other party felt strange just now.

"Anakin, if it was you, I would be happy to take the time to have a good talk with you..."

"However, since you are about to escort Senator Amidala back to Naboo, I will not invite you now. When you come back next time, you must remember to come to me, okay?"

After sighing with some regret, Supreme Speaker Palpatine looked at Anakin's colleagues without hesitation and seriously exhorted him.

"..."

"certainly!"

No way, the other party said so, Anakin had no choice but to nod reluctantly and agreed.

However, he escorted Padmé back to Naboo this time, and he might not return to Coruscant so easily, because he has secretly decided to find excuses to stay outside for a while and bring more larvae on the road. ?

Although he now has the No. 0, No. 1, and No. 2 bug swarms and bases on the three planets of Coruscant, Tatooine, and Naboo, but, he thinks, compared to the powerful Galactic Republic and the Separatism The alliance is not enough, he needs more swarms and more bases!

Of course, there are many more planets! !

"very good!"

"I'm looking forward to this..."

Seeing that the other party was no longer so resistant, Speaker Palpatine nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the two Jedi masters to see what else they need to explain?
