Chapter 211: Joining The Circle
The Galactic Senate Building, the office of Naboo Senator Sheev Palpatine.
"The education bill proposed by Finis Valorum this time, it doesn't matter whether it is passed or not." Palpatine smiled warmly, and put a glass of water into Francis' hands, "But what you said is indeed right, Deputy Chancellor Botan failed to help Supreme Chancellor Valorum in many incidents, we really should let a more powerful person assist the speaker."
Palpatine's tone was very soothing, and he couldn't feel any disgust when he heard it, and he continued to ask: "But why did you come to me about this matter? Mr. Francis. I think, now The Dawn Planet should have enough influence to make some members of the Outer Rim Planet change their wishes?"
Francis Underwood smiled but did not directly answer the question, "I hope the Milky Way can become better. In fact, whenever I read history, I always feel the tenacity of the Sith Empire and the Eternal Empire. Powerful, and the brutality of the Infinite Empire. But all of these have disappeared, leaving only the Galactic Republic still standing in the Milky Way... What is it relying on? I think it is definitely not what it is now."
"We all hope that the Republic will become better, Mr. Francis. I am very pleased that you have such an idea, I think, maybe we will have a lot of common language." Palpatine said with a smile.
"The Galactic Republic needs a revolution. I hope to have a strong government, a regime that can truly rule the entire galaxy. But now..." Francis shook his head, "Even a little fluctuation will bring about a change in the Senate."
"So what do you think the change should be?"
"Balance!" Francis said: "The reason why the Galactic Senate is like this is because it lost its balance. The entire Galactic Republic has also lost its balance. Therefore, we need to re-establish a fragile balance until... the transformation time has really come."
"That's why you asked Orn Free Taa to first propose the motion to impeach Deputy Chancellor Botan? As the leader of the ring faction, Mr. Ta does have enough energy. If we add your help and mine, It is true that impeachment is possible. But what does that balance matter?"
"Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum is now like a hanging garden, and his support is decaying. But no matter what, there are still at least one-third of the inner ring planets supporting Valorum above the garden. We cannot let this hanging garden completely collapse. Therefore, your strength is needed to remove Botan's rotten pillar without collapsing and replace it with a stronger pillar." Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Only in this way can the fourth civilization always be in a favorable position in that future war.
"Then, see you in three days, Lord Palpatine." Francis smiled and withdrew.
Palpatine looked at his back, seeming to be thinking about something, but then the communicator rang, interrupting his thoughts.
A tall old man appeared in the holographic projection, the Jedi Master Dooku.
Dooku's face was full of anger at this moment, and his neatly trimmed beard exploded like a beast's mane at this moment, obviously, he was extremely angry!
"Senator Palpatine, is the news you received earlier true? Is Komari Vosa really not dead?" Dooku was almost roaring, but he still tried his best to suppress his anger and let himself be calmer.
Palpatine sighed and said: "I'm afraid it's true. I have received reliable information that a cult organization Bando Gosa has been very active recently, and their leader is your former apprentice, Komari Vosa."
"How could this be?! Master Windu told me that Vosa is dead!" Master Dooku roared in disbelief.
"I'm afraid this time, the intelligence of the Jedi Order has gone wrong. Not only is Komari Vosa not dead, but a few days ago, she also colluded with Black Sun to blow up an unknown planet with a nuclear bomb." Palpatine Heartbroken, "We must stop Vosa before she leads Bando Gosa further discrediting the Jedi Order! Republic, no more chaos!"
"Mace Windu, bastard!!" Dooku cursed again, then nodded to Palpatine and said: "I know what to do, don't worry, Senator, I will deal with her personally !"
"I still suggest that you don't act rashly. It's better...to discuss it with Master Yoda." There was an imperceptible sneer at the corner of Palpatine's mouth.
