Chapter 98: Mastering The Future

"Because this is my true idea. I won't try to persuade you, because I don't think I can do it. But I can put the interests in front of you and let you make a choice." Tang Xiao stood up, walked behind Francis' sofa, and pressed the sofa back. "Francis Underwood, what you want is power and the pleasure of standing at the top of the food chain, so I will give you these."

"I have to remind you, Mr. Supreme Commander. At present, we are only a colony with a population of more than 10,000 people and a mother ship. As far as I know, even the first empire in our history has at least a million people, so, are you sure you're not joking?"

"Well, since that's the case, I want to ask, why did you accept the awakening?"

"As I said, I saw a bigger stage, which also allowed me to get more. Maybe what I said will be more straightforward, but this stage is not necessarily here. The Galactic Republic, how magnificent! Even if the building is full of termites and moths under its gorgeous exterior, that's where we come in, isn't it?"

"For example, Hego Damask II?"

"He is a high-ranking person, and the gain or loss of a planet won't even make him blink. At the same time, he is also your master, right? He is a dangerous person, but I also agree with your judgment, he will also bring endless opportunities. But worshipping him as a teacher..." Francis shook his head, "You are equivalent to shackling yourself in a cage that you cannot break free from."

"So you don't like me, Francis."

"You are too young to be a Supreme Commander. Young means lack of experience and lack of experience. You can't fight against those who have been immersed in politics for a lifetime. I am very optimistic about your future, but maybe this future is difficult to see at my age."

"That's why I need your help."

"But can you really give me what I want?"

He walked over again, looking down at Francis who was sitting on the sofa with blazing eyes, "I will assure you that the economic, industrial and military strength of the Fourth Civilization will become stronger step by step until it is strong enough to participate in this war." This is my job. And you, my Prime Minister, I need you to go to Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic, to fight for the status we deserve. Only when we cooperate with each other, the Fourth Civilization will have a chance to be in the Galaxy. On the ruins of the Republic, became... the Fourth Empire!"

"I remember that I didn't agree to your request, Mr. Supreme Commander." Francis Underwood said with a smile.

"No, you will agree. Because I have seen your thoughts, my Prime Minister." Tang Xiao's eyes flashed an imperceptible red, "I don't know this interview, are you satisfied with me?"

"Can you see that I'm testing you?" Francis looked at Tang Xiao with great interest.

"This Galaxy is different from before, but it also gives me a further opportunity, Francis. Be my right-hand man, and then become the prime minister of the empire!" Tang Xiao stretched out his hand and said.

Francis stood up and reached out to hold Tang Xiao's hand, "I agree to your request, Mr. Administrator. But this does not mean that I will agree with the statement about that...' Imperial Prime Minister, because I still can't see any possibility of realizing it, and personally, I really hate this kind of fake big pie."

Then he turned his head and said: "But I decided to perform my duties, which is why I boarded the mothership - I will help you, for now. And I also hope that our Fourth Civilization can be in your leading the next step towards rising."

Tang Xiao nodded, came to sit down in front of Francis, and said word by word: "What I want to say next is related to your future course of action, and your actions are related to every step of the Fourth Civilization. Action. But you understand, I will only say these words once, only the two of us will know, and there will be no written documents."

Francis nodded, "Go ahead."

"It is now 25018 in the era of the Galactic Republic, but I will use another way to count the year. This year is 35BBY, and it is now September. The Galactic Republic is ruled by the Galactic Senate, and the Supreme Leader is the Supreme Chancellor, who will be subject to many restrictions. This is a very typical democratic system. At the same time, there is another group of guardians in the Galactic Republicthe Jedi Knights. They have a detached status. Although they do not have any political positions, they can intervene in every evil thing they think, and Because of their position, officials at all levels must facilitate their actions."

"Then the most important thing is that the current speaker of the Galactic Republic, Finis Valorum, will soon lose control of the situation. Under a series of conspiracies, in 32BBY, that is, after more than 2 years, the Trade Federation will use taxes as an excuse The problem of blocking the Planet Naboo, is actually putting pressure on the Republic which led to the outbreak of the Naboo War..." Tang Xiao told him little by little what he knew about the current plot.
