Chapter 174: Actions of The Jedi Order
Sheev Palpatine's voice was as cadenced as singing poetry. He praised the glory of the powerful Jedi Order at the peak of the Republic, and then the style of painting suddenly changed...
He slowly put his hand down, "But when did the Jedi Knights become such a cowardly organization? They uphold peace, but turn a blind eye to the obvious war. The Battle of Galidraan, Stark's Hyperspace War, which time did not let the Republic suffer an undue crisis? Master Yoda is a respectable elder, and I believe that in this crisis, he will not stand idly by."
Finis Valorum's gaze gradually became firmer. He nodded and said, "That's true. In the face of the danger of the Republic, the Jedi Order cannot stand idly by. I will go to Master Yoda myself."
Palpatine bowed deeply, and said slowly: "I will also mobilize my relationship to help."
...
Coruscant, above the Jedi Temple, on the top floor of the five towers to the right.
Accompanied by his entourage, the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Senate, Finis Valorum, walked out of the Shuttle. Dozens of apprentices had already lined up on both sides, led by Jedi Master Mace Windu, to greet him.
Master Windu was wearing a coarse cloth robe, with a calm face, he bowed deeply and then said: "Your Excellency must have come here for the dispute over Planet Malastare, please come in, Master Yoda is waiting for you in the conference room. "
Finis Valorum nodded, signaled the guards behind him to wait by the Shuttle, and walked into the Jedi Temple alone.
Master Windu accompanied him all the way, but he didn't speak. He accompanied Valorum into the meeting room, and there was only a short green figure waiting inside. Master Windu bowed to Valorum again, then stepped back and left the conference room.
"Be more casual, just the two of us." Master Yoda turned around, bowed slightly, and then made a gesture of invitation to the sofa next to him.
Supreme Chancellor Valorum sat down on the sofa. He thought for a while and was about to speak, but Master Yoda took the first step.
"It's not peaceful, this Galaxy. Hm?" Master Yoda said with a smile.
Valorum sighed, "That's true, the disputes in all aspects are intensifying, which makes us exhausted."
"It's about to move, the power of the dark side. I can feel it, from my premonition." Master Yoda said, "There are evil shadows behind those abnormal things."
"I don't think this is an illusory issue like the dark side, but a real conflict of interests and class conflict," Valorum said.
"You shouldn't come to me if it's a matter of interest." Master Yoda shook his head, "Guided by The Force, your arrival is."
"I'm not here for The Force, but for Planet Malastare," Valoren said.
"What? You want us." Master Yoda asked knowingly.
"I hope that the Jedi Order can come forward to resolve the dispute on Planet Malastare. This farce cannot continue. If the Corporate Alliance succeeds, other large Enterprises will follow suit. In this way, the Republic may last forever. Lose the right to rule the outer ring star region." Valorum seized the opportunity and said in one breath.
"Send a mediator, we have already." Master Yoda shook his head and said, "We will not intervene in commercial disputes."
Valorum stood up suddenly and said loudly: "But this is a matter related to the state of the Republic! If those business giants are allowed to override the Republic, then the demise of the Republic will be just around the corner! Faced with such a thing, how can the Jedi Order Able to stand by and watch!"
He wanted to continue to say something, but Master Yoda waved his hand lightly, and Valorum suddenly felt a cool feeling from the bottom of his heart, as if he had been showered with a bucket of ice water in the hot summer. It is refreshing.
"The power of the dark side is behind, as I said." Master Yoda said: "It exists in everyone's heart, the power of the dark side. To fight against it, we all need it."
Supreme Chancellor Valorum turned his worries into joy, "So, the Jedi Knights are willing to help?"
"Already on the way, Master Kep-She," Master Yoda said, "Reevaluate the situation, she needs to."
"Is it only Master Kep-She? Then..."
"Constantly guide us, The Force." Master Yoda stood up with a slight smile and bowed to Supreme Chancellor Valorum, and then made another gesture of invitation to the door, "Be with you, may The Force be with you."
...
"That's the way it is, Master Dooku. I'm afraid that after this time, the Galactic Republic will face a period of turmoil..." Palpatine sighed and said to the two figures in the holographic projection.
One of them was a hale and tall old man with gray beard and hair, Jedi Master Dooku. On the other hand, the coarse cloth robe was full of vicissitudes, with a short goatee, and his long hair was braided and tied behind his head. Looking at the attire, he was obviously a Jedi knight. "It seems that your judgment was correct before, Senator Palpatine. The Galaxy is heading for a war." Master Dooku said.
"This is exactly what I am most worried about. With the failure of the Republic Fleet this time, many people have seen another possibility - armed confrontation." Another Jedi Knight said.
"So we need to seriously consider this issue, Master Sifo-Dyas." Palpatine said in a deep voice, "The Galactic Republic needs a strong army."
"If necessary, I will do my best for this plan." Master Sifo-Dyas nodded in agreement.
"How to solve the problem of funding? Besides, the Galactic Council won't agree to the proposal to build an army, right?" Master Dooku said.
"Well, we have many people with lofty ideals, just like the two of you. The future of the Republic needs to be guarded by passionate heroes like you, not those high-ranking officials sitting behind the office," said Palpatine.
Sifo-Dyas asked again: "So now, how will the dispute on the planet Malastare be resolved?"
"I believe that at this moment, Supreme Chancellor Valorum has reached an agreement with Master Yoda, and the Jedi Order will resolve this dispute. Just like what was done during the Battle of Galidraan before." Palpatine said.
As soon as he said those words, Master Dooku's expression suddenly became ferocious, and he gritted his teeth and spit out a few words, "Are you complicating things like the Battle of Galidraan, and finally turned into a massacre? In that wrong fight, I lost my apprentice forever."
"But at least for now, your other apprentice, Qui-Gon Jinn, is an excellent Jedi Master," Palpatine said with a smile.
"The corruption and dogma of the Jedi Order once again complicate things! Since Master Yoda is going to intervene, he should have acted long ago! Instead of starting after the Republic fleet is almost wiped out! This is simply child's play!" Ki-Adi-Mundi said sharply.
"Master Yoda also has his own considerations. After all, our Jedi Order should not have resorted to force from the very beginning. We wield our swords for peace, not for war." Sifo-Dyas had a different opinion.
Palpatine smiled and said, "Well, let's see how things go, Masters."
