The events and characters in this show have been fictionalized based on history.

I see it now.

So you, Nigar Kalfa...

...have been carrying love letters between Lady Hurrem and Leo?

Our sultan did nothing wrong, my pasha. There is no chance.

Obviously Leo was captivated by her when he was painting her.

-She is innocent, I swear. -Don't bother swearing!

Who says she is?

It says something about Ruthenia.

Isn't that where Hurrem came from?

Mihrimah, you beauty.

You are getting more beautiful every day.

She is as smart as she is beautiful, my sultan.

All my grandchildren are.

May Allah give them long life. I hope they are lucky and successful.

-I wish the same for Hatice. -Hopefully.

Don't try to defend her.

If you know something, tell me.

No, my pasha. What could I know?

Then how did Leo dare to give this letter to you?

Leo Effendi told me he was painting Hurrem.

How could I know there was something else in it?

He told me it was a painting, so I gave it to her.

And Hurrem Sultan had me give Leo some gold for saving her in the rebellion.

But Leo refused it. He gave the gold back.

So I brought it back.

Nigar Kalfa.

They have been using you as a messenger...

...and you had no idea, is that right?

I swear I didn't know what was inside. I couldn't have opened it.

Of course.

Now, listen to me very carefully.

Now, go and deliver this letter to its owner.

To Leo?

No...

To Sultan Hurrem.

-But, my pasha... -Do what I say.

Give her the letter.

And keep watching her, see what she does.

Then you will tell me about it.

As you wish, my pasha.

Don't mention me.

You won't talk about this to anyone.

This is a secret between us.

Understand?

Yes, my pasha.

If you fail to obey me...

...and reveal this secret...

...I will choke you to death.

If you have any problems, let us know. Daye will take care of them.

Thank you, Mother. You honoured me by coming here.

Esma!

Come. Take the children outside to get some fresh air.

Then tell Nigar Kalfa to come immediately.

Your Majesty.

Pargali, look what Plato said.

"Injustice is the greatest...

...and the worst evil."

Isn't he right?

Justice is served against every crime you hear and see, Your Majesty.

What about the ones I do not hear or see?

-I am responsible for them, Your Majesty. -Don't forget saying that.

I won't.

Tomorrow we are having a dinner with Signor Gritti and his sister.

I hope you will grace us with your presence.

We will.

Pargali, ask Leo when we can see the paintings.

He is taking his time with them.

Your painting is finished, Your Majesty.

It will honour the wall of our palace.

Have you seen it before me?

You shouldn't have put it up if it came out bad.

You don't need to worry, Your Majesty.

Hopefully, you will love it. Sultan Hatice and I did.

Okay, then I am glad.

Come in.

What's wrong, Nigar?

You came looking shifty and left.

-Something's up with you. -It's nothing important, my sultan.

I didn't want to give it to you in front of her.

Give me what?

Leo Effendi.

-He sent you a painting. -A painting?

He said so. He said you had asked for it.

Yes, right. I asked him that.

Okay. You can leave.

Alex, my angel-faced love.

I am doing what you asked me to do.

I am going to Ruthenia, the land of our love.

Before I go...

...allow me to see you one last time.

At least do this for me.

Don't deny a man who will love you and grieve for you...

...until the end of his days.

I will wait for you behind the fountain in the main garden.

Allah help me.

What am I going to do now?

-Don't you have work to do? -His Majesty's painting is done.

I know that. When is this going to be finished?

Not long now. I will work through the night and finish it.

You are taking too long.

I don't get it.

Go.

Did you give her the letter?

Yes, my pasha. I did everything you told me to.

What did she do?

She sent me out, but I watched her through the keyhole.

She read the letter and burned it.

Anything else?

Nothing else, my pasha.

Go to Sultan Hurrem's chamber.

Search every nook and cranny.

Bring me something, Nigar Kalfa.

Like what? What am I going to find?

You have been their messenger before.

I am sure there is something.

Understood?

Yes, my pasha.

Go now.

-Where is Sultan Hurrem? -She went to the private chamber.

Poor baby. You can put him to sleep in the cradle.

Ibrahim and Hatice are going to host...

...the son of the doge of Venice and his sister tomorrow.

You can join us.

-You can chat with Gritti's sister. -That would be great.

I love that palace.

Leo Effendi finished my painting.

Ibrahim will present it to me tomorrow.

Pargali really liked it.

If it is really good, then we should reward Leo.

I knew I could find you here.

-What's up, Sumbul Agha? -You weren't around today.

-I wanted to ask if you're okay. -I can't believe it.

-Were you worried about me? -Of course I was.

You are the mighty Nigar Kalfa.

Don't make fun of me.

What were you talking about with Ibrahim Pasa?

Nothing. He was asking about the harem.

I was tired this afternoon.

I took a nap.

I saw Hurrem in my dream.

Hurrem? Doing what?

I could hear her voice from the darkness.

She was asking for help.

I could hear her voice but couldn't see her.

I couldn't see anything.

I kept saying, "Come here, Hurrem."

But she just said, "Help me."

No one can help her now.

Sorry?

I said I didn't see her today.

Nigar Kalfa told me she was okay.

Whatever.

It was just a weird dream.

I ordered everything we will need for tomorrow.

I am really curious about the Gritti family.

Especially the sister.

This is the first time I am going to see a royal woman from Europe.

Is she beautiful?

Is she elegant?

My sultan...

...compared to your beauty and elegance...

...all women are bound to be dull.

In this world...

...none have seen a more beautiful woman than Hatice...

...nor will they ever.

-I knew you'd come, Alex. -I need go back very soon.

It would be a disaster if we were seen. They would kill us both.

I am not afraid of death.

I wanted to see you for the last time.

Sultan Hurrem.

Take him.

-No. What's happening? -Leo!

Let me go! I am innocent!

-Alex! Let her go! -I am just following orders.

You can talk to His Majesty. Go.

I said, go.

-Leo! -Alex!

Don't touch her! Alex!

Suleiman, I didn't do anything.

I have not betrayed our love. I am innocent.

Stop talking, Hurrem.

Just look.

Alex! Save me!

Alex! Save me!

Don't run away. You will watch.

Watch closely.

Suleiman, don't! We did nothing wrong!

I love you, Alex.

Goodbye.

-My pasha. -Come in.

I searched Sultan Hurrem's chamber as you asked.

-I looked everywhere. -And?

Did you find anything?

No, my pasha. I found nothing.

-If you are hiding something... -I wouldn't dare, my pasha.

I searched everywhere. There was nothing.

I will pursue this.

Apparently...

...Leo Effendi will be waiting behind the fountain in the main garden.

Let's see if he has any visitors.

Keep your mouth shut.

This kind of poison...

...will burn everyone.

Keep your eyes and ears open. Go now.

-Like this? -Yes, very good.

It would be better if the leaves on this tree were lighter.

Thankfully, you took a break from that infidel thing.

Watch carefully and learn.

Are you becoming a muralist too?

I am just drawing. He is helping me with it.

Take it easy. Come with me.

This is your big day. His Majesty will view his painting today.

Pray that he loves it.

-Will we be there too? -I don't know. They didn't say anything.

Good.

We should go somewhere else.

-Where? -You were talking about the inn...

...with the Greek beauty.

Quiet.

Okay, we will go.

I have some work to do.

-Let's meet at the docks this evening. -Okay.

I am going just because you insisted.

I don't go to those kinds of places anymore.

Good morning, Mother.

Welcome. Mustafa!

-My lion cub. How are you? -I am very good. So is my mother.

-Are you going to your class? -I have sword training in the garden.

Daye, we can check the records later.

It is nice outside. We should go to the garden together.

We can watch Mustafa's training.

You would honour us, Mother.

-I will have them prepare you a meal. -Wonderful.

Today started good.

Let's see what kind of news Gritti will bring this evening.

The infidels are infuriated.

Your Majesty, he is now officially in service to the empire.

He will certainly be valuable as an adviser.

I am sure it will come up at dinner.

Also invite Leo Effendi. I want to thank him personally.

-If you'll excuse me, Your Majesty. -You may leave.

My sultan.

I wanted to know if you need anything.

No.

Valide sultan and Sultan Mahidevran are in the private garden.

-Are you going to join them? -No.

Then let's go to your beautiful terrace. It is nice outside.

I will get some fresh air.

I feel overwhelmed.

The terrace is ready. I can have them bring your dinner there.

I don't want to. I will go out to the garden.

I thought you weren't going. Don't go. You will be upset.

Sultan Mahidevran will say something, and you will get angry.

I will stay away from them and won't go near.

Gulnihal is awake now. We can visit her.

You are sticking your nose everywhere since you became the head overseer.

Move.

Damn it. She's going to go.

It's almost evening. Hurry.

If that cream turns out to be loose...

...I swear to Allah I will exile you from the kitchen.

You will be cooking cream in the Janissary corps.

If you disgrace me in front of Sultan Hatice, I will kick you all out.

What do you think you are doing? You have to pour it slowly.

Let it absorb the syrup.

Seker Agha.

What is this? Is that all the dessert?

Sumbul Agha, please stop. We are too nervous as it is.

Don't worry, we will make it.

Make them good. Sultan Hatice warned me specifically.

This is important. She has Frankish guests.

Yes, Sumbul Agha.

Don't worry, we will make it.

You are too slow. Come on.

These still have to be delivered to the other palace.

The soup smells amazing. Give me a bowl so I can take it to Gulnihal.

-Sumbul Agha... -Come on.

Come on, give Sumbul Agha a bowl of soup.

Come on, sit by me.

-How is Gulsah? Isn't she well yet? -She is better.

She will come back when her wounds are healed.

I know you are happy with Gulsah.

But she doesn't need to come back.

We can find you another concubine. We can send her home.

Mother, Gulsah has been with me for 10 years.

She helps with everything.

I won't trust anyone but her.

Alex.

Please come.

What's going on, Nigar Kalfa? You don't come here often.

Stop it, Sumbul Agha. I am already overwhelmed.

I can tell.

One would think you were in love.

You are one to talk.

What?

The soup is going to get cold. Gulnihal is waiting for you.

Apparently Ibrahim Pasa put you in your place.

That is why you are angry.

Are you the one who blamed me?

You reap what you sow.

I told you before.

I warned you.

Sumbul Agha...

...if only you knew what you've done...

Please, Alex.

Please come.

You will go down so fast, Ibrahim Pasa.

I will shake you down so hard.

Come, Hurrem.

This man is going to be your death.

Before I go...

...allow me to see you one last time.

At least do this for me.

Don't deny a man who will love you and grieve for you...

...until the end of his days.

I will wait for you behind the fountain in the main garden.

Take him to the dungeons in my palace. Don't let anyone see him.

-What is happening? -Come on.

What? Give me my sack.

Where are you taking my sack? Let it go!

What did I do? I am just walking here!

Where is he taking my sack? Let me go!

Lady Hurrem.

This will be your undoing.

Daye, have them bring us some cold sherbet.

Mother.

My sultan.

I wanted to come when I heard you were here.

Come, sit here.

You should've brought Mihrimah and Selim too.

I can tell them to bring them.

Poor girl.

I will find whoever did this to you.

May Allah break their hands.

His Excellency Sultan Suleiman Khan.

Mother.

-You look happy. -Thank Allah, my lion.

Look, all my loved ones are around me. What else could I want?

We should have dinner here together.

We can do it tomorrow, Mother. I will be at Ibrahim Pasa's palace.

Is that so?

I forgot about it when I was taking care of the children.

I will go and get ready.

We are not invited, I take it.

The family of the doge of Venice will be there.

We are going to talk politics, Mother.

And Hurrem will attend to Gritti's sister.

Why isn't the hall ready yet?

Sadika? Where are the flowers?

You haven't prepared the red and white roses for His Majesty.

The Venetians are important. But His Majesty is coming too.

Everything has to be perfect.

Otherwise I will hold you responsible.

Gritti is now officially serving the empire, Mother.

From now on, I will know everything the Westerners do.

Congratulations.

I hope it will be as good as you say.

Your Majesty.

My valide.

-Are you still here, Pargali? -I am leaving now, Your Majesty.

I wanted to ask if you wanted anything specific for the evening.

No. I will come with Hurrem.

It will be an honour, Your Majesty.

Let me out! What did I do?

What did I do? Let me out of here!

My sultan.

Nigar.

-Are you following me? -Of course not.

I keep seeing you everywhere I go.

You blame me either way. I was just worried about you.

-You didn't seem well. -I met my valide.

His Majesty also came. I got some fresh air. I am okay now.

Okay. Great.

-Is Seker Agha here? -Yes, my sultan. He's in the kitchen.

Good.

Sadika, come with me.

-My sultan. -My pasha. Welcome.

Thank you for all this. It looks great.

-I am going to get ready now. -You look amazing at all times, my sultan.

Wait, my pasha. I will be here in a second.

My pasha, I am glad you are here. Am I leaving?

Close the door.

My pasha. I don't understand.

I was in the garden, and they brought me here.

I don't know what's happening.

Who are you?

-I... -Who are you?

How dare you write a letter to Sultan Hurrem?

There's been a mistake. I didn't write anything.

Don't lie to me!

Thank Allah you are well. I was so afraid.

They haven't found who did it.

Yes, that's so.

The killer is in here somewhere.

How are the princes? And Mihrimah?

-I miss them so much. -They are well.

They keep asking after you.

My sultan.

Here comes the doomsayer. What is it?

Your dress has been prepared. That's all I came to say.

I am shocked.

Since when do you deal with such things?

Of course I do. You need but command me, my sultan.

Well done. One day everyone will find the right path.

I will rip your liver out.

Leo!

I read the letter you wrote to Sultan Hurrem.

You asked to meet by the fountain in the main garden.

It is a trap.

Why would anyone take the trouble to trap you?

My pasha, they don't like me in the workshop.

They call me an infidel. My teacher told me to leave.

Then what were you doing by the fountain?

I was wandering around the garden.

Wandering around?

In the main garden?

What is this?

What is this portrait doing in your bag?

I... I didn't like it.

It was very bad. I cut it out.

I didn't want anyone to see it. I am going to throw it in the sea.

Are you kidding me?

Leo.

Come on, admit it.

What is between you and Sultan Hurrem?

No. There is nothing.

Admit it.

Admit it.

Admit it.

Admit it!

Admit it.

My pasha, Signor Gritti has arrived.

I am not done with you yet.

Monica.

Signor Gritti, Signora Monica Terese.

Ibrahim Pasa and Sultan Hatice will accept you in the garden.

-Ibrahim. -My sultan.

My pasha.

Where were you? We couldn't find you.

I had a small matter to attend to.

My pasha, my sultan. This is my sister, Monica Terese.

My pasha, Sultan Hatice.

Thank you for your kind invitation.

Welcome. We are honoured.

I thank you on behalf of Sultan Hatice as well.

His Excellency Sultan Suleiman Khan.

-Hurrem. -How is it?

Do you like it? Is it all right?

You are my shining star, my sun.

You are beautiful indeed.

Are we leaving?

We will go. Soon.

Sultan Hatice. Am I pronouncing it correctly?

-Yes, that's right. -You are very elegant and beautiful.

Thank you.

So are you.

How did you learn Turkish?

I know very little Turkish. Alvise taught me.

Signora Monica Terese.

I could help you to learn our language.

-If you would want to, of course. -Yes, very much.

I am sad to hear that you lost your husband at such a young age.

Please accept our condolences.

We are grateful for your condolences.

We must all bow to our fates. Otherwise we will never find peace.

The palace is beautiful.

-I could take you around, if you like. -All right.

-Shall we go? -Let's go.

Alvise said that you are passionate about art.

I will introduce Ibrahim Pasa to truly great artists.

I will invite them to this palace.

Who is the artist?

He is a Crimean painter. His name is Leo. He works in the palace.

Ibrahim Pasa could introduce you, if you like.

Isn't that right, Ibrahim?

What did you ask, my sultan?

She asked you to introduce us to the Crimean artist Leo.

Of course. Why not?

His Excellency Sultan Suleiman Khan.

Your Excellency Sultan Suleiman Khan.

I am honoured to present my sister, Monica Terese.

And to you Sultan Hurrem.

Sultan Suleiman.

I am honoured to meet you.

Your Majesty, the lady is expressing how honoured she is to meet you.

Welcome.

My sultan.

Signora Monica Terese only speaks a bit of Turkish, Your Majesty.

I will be helping her learn our language.

We would be happy to hear you speak our language, Signora Terese.

You have found yourself the best teacher there is.

Your Majesty, by your leave, we could move on to the meal.

Allah, where is Leo?

Your Majesty.

I would like to present your portrait to you before we begin.

Let's see it.

Open the door! Take me to Ibrahim Pasa!

I want to see Ibrahim Pasa!

Find Matrakci Nasuh Effendi! Call him!

Shut up! Be quiet!

Forgive me, Alex.

I couldn't leave.

How do you find it, Your Majesty? Do you like it?

It is beautiful.

What do you think, Hurrem?

I love it. It is beautiful.

Ibrahim Pasa, tell Leo Effendi to come to the palace tomorrow.

I want to congratulate him in person.

He cannot come, Your Majesty. He has left. I let him go.

What do you mean? Where has he gone?

To Ruthenia, the land where he found his love.

You let him go?

Come on, Leo. Don't keep me waiting.

Nasuh Effendi.

Captain Antonio.

-Good evening. -Good evening.

I was going to visit you tomorrow.

Nothing bad, I hope.

I have a letter for Viktoria from her uncle.

Perfect.

Give it here, then. I will take it.

Let me buy you a drink.

No, thank you.

I am waiting for a friend.

But it doesn't seem like he will be coming.

Well, stay safe, then.

Stay safe.

Sultan Hurrem, do you live in the harem?

You are married to Sultan Suleiman?

I have three children.

I have given birth to two heirs.

Heirs?

Princes.

We have three princes.

His Majesty has another prince, born to Sultan Mahidevran.

The sultan has many wives?

They say he has 10, 100, even a thousand slave women.

-How many women does a sultan have? -That's a lie.

There are no thousand women.

There is a harem in every palace.

-Is it not the same in Venice? -No, not in Venice.

The church forbids it.

Then how is it that your mother and Signor Gritti's mother are not the same?

My father married twice.

I thought you said the church had forbidden it.

My mother was married in the church.

Alvise's mother was not.

See, your father has his own harem too.

What do you mean? Where has he gone?

To Ruthenia, the land where he found his love.

I have heard that King Louis has asked for the Vatican's aid.

Quite obviously, he is scared.

But fear will do him no good.

Louis' supporter is, of course, Charles.

He is still holding King Francis captive.

Your Majesty, the answer you sent to Francis' mother has probably arrived.

I'm sure she knows of your support.

If Charles has any sense, he will release Francis.

Otherwise his own imprisonment will begin.

Are you the sultan's queen?

We have no queens.

What is your name?

Sadika.

Are you also Sultan Suleiman's concubine?

All the women in the palace are His Majesty's harem.

How is that possible? I could not.

I can't do it either.

What about Ibrahim Pasa?

-Does he have a harem? -No.

Only you? No one else?

No one else. It is forbidden.

In such a situation, I would divorce him.

My sultan, by your leave, I would like to go out to the garden.

Good. We can come too.

Make way!

It is time to go.

Your Majesty, don't go. Spend the night here.

Some other time, Hatice.

I am more than happy with your hospitality.

I thank you.

Me too. It has been a wonderful evening.

Signora Terese, I would like to invite you to my palace.

You could meet my mother.

Ibrahim Pasa, we need to speak urgently.

Not to worry, Lady Hurrem.

Let's see what tomorrow brings.

We will speak tomorrow.

Let's go, Hurrem.

Nice to meet you.

Good evening.

My pasha, my sultan.

By your leave, it is time for us to go as well.

Of course.

Signora Terese has come a long way.

-I'm sure she is tired. -It has been a wonderful evening.

I would like to come again.

-How long will you be staying? -I won't be staying long.

You are welcome to come.

My pasha, my sultan...

...please bestow on us the honour of hosting you again.

I hope so. Good evening.

-Aren't you coming? -I will be coming soon.

My pasha.

What is it, Matrakci, at this time of night?

I haven't been able to find Leo, my pasha.

I wonder if he is here. We were to meet tonight.

I sent him back to his homeland. He missed his family.

-He didn't tell me. Not even a goodbye... -He probably didn't have time, Matrakci.

It's late. We will speak another time.

My pasha.

Let me go.

I will let you go, Leo.

But before that, you will admit everything.

What am I to admit? There is nothing.

Speak, Leo.

If you don't speak, I can't protect Lady Hurrem.

They will take her head.

Do you want her to die?

Tell me, Leo.

Tell me so that I can prove Lady Hurrem's innocence.

I have brought another letter from your uncle.

Here you go.

Nasuh Effendi, you are a very good person.

Sadika...

...I can barely contain myself.

I open my eyes, and there you are.

I close my eyes, and there you are again.

I never stop thinking of you.

Please tell me, do you feel the same for me?

Look at me. I won't bite. Look me in the eyes.

That's it.

I can take anything if you look at me like that.

Please go. They will see us.

Hurry, Viktoria.

You need to keep your promise as soon as possible.

The time has come.

I have known Alexandra since I was 5.

She is my Alex.

Her father was the village priest.

We grew up together.

We fell in love.

We were to be married.

The Tatars came. They burnt the village.

They kidnapped Alexandra.

I was wounded badly.

I was bedridden.

She thought I was dead.

I searched for her for years.

She was brought here as a slave from Crimea.

She became Sultan Hurrem.

Sultan Hurrem.

She kept telling me to leave, my pasha. Leave...

I didn't listen to her.

I wrote her a letter asking to see her one last time.

But she didn't come.

My pasha...

...she is innocent.

Don't harm her.

Open up.

No.

I haven't done anything.

Your Majesty.

How could you do this?

How could you betray me?

There is no betrayal. I love you.

I am your subject, your slave, your concubine.

I don't believe you anymore.

I don't want to see your face or even hear your voice ever again.

Ibrahim.

I swear, my heart belongs only to you.

I am yours until I die.

My sultan?

My sultan?

My sultan.

Help! Something has happened to Sultan Hurrem!

What is wrong with the sultan?

There is nothing to be afraid of. The sultan is with child.

What did you say?

You are pregnant.

What lovely news. That's one every year.

What is it? Are you not happy?

Of course I am happy. These are tears of joy.

Good morning.

-I hope it will be good. -What is the matter? Are you ill?

I don't feel well. I had nightmares last night.

The valide sultan wishes to see you.

Should I tell her that you are unwell so you can rest?

No, don't tell her that.

I will get ready and come soon.

There is something I need to tell the valide.

Give me those pillows. Slowly.

Put it here.

Are you comfortable?

Sumbul Agha.

What about me?

Doesn't Sultan Mahidevran want me?

-I have recovered. -You rest here.

-You have everything you need here. -I am so bored, Sumbul Agha.

Perhaps if you would speak to my sultan...

What's the matter, Sumbul Agha?

I am going to move Gulnihal to a more appropriate room. She won't recover here.

-I hope the physician knows. -I'm not asking your opinion.

-You are not my equal, yet you advise me? -All right, Sumbul Agha. Don't get angry.

-How are you, Gulnihal? -Much better.

Then let me give you some good news.

Sultan Hurrem is with child.

Really?

-I don't believe it. Again? -Yes, again.

Good morning.

To you too. Come closer.

Has something happened, my valide? You summoned me.

We are going to the Marble Palace with Hatice and Mahidevran.

-Come with us. -I am not feeling well, my valide.

You weren't looking well yesterday either. What is it?

I am feeling sick and faint. My head is spinning.

-Have the physicians take a look. -They have, my valide.

They said that I was pregnant.

That's wonderful. I hope it brings us all joy.

I hope you have an easy birth.

I pray that it is born healthy, Allah willing.

Does my lion know?

My valide, I want to tell him the good news after I rest for a while.

All right, you go and rest. We are going to the Marble Palace.

Daye, tell Seker Agha to have lokma and sherbet prepared.

You can have it handed out at an appropriate time.

By your leave, my valide.

My sultan. I have just come from Gulnihal.

She is out of the infirmary. Things are looking up.

Sumbul Agha will be looking after her.

Nigar, the valide is going to the Marble Palace with Sultan Hatice and Mahidevran.

Have the carriage prepared after they leave.

I am going to Sultan Hatice's palace.

All right, but Sultan Hatice is already here.

Do as I say.

My sultan, I can do it...

...but why are you going? There is nobody there.

I have business with Ibrahim Pasa.

Come with me.

My pasha.

What a surprise, Matrakci. You are here day and night.

My pasha...

...you remember your promise...

You know, the marriage...

It has been a while. I cannot bear it anymore, my pasha.

Help me out, my pasha. I see her in my dreams.

Matrakci, give me a couple of days.

I have important matters to deal with. We will see to that later.

But you should begin preparations.

Allah! My pasha!

Ibrahim Pasa!

May you live long.

Come in.

-Your Majesty. -Tell Sultan Hurrem to get ready.

We are going to go riding.

She has gone to Ibrahim Pasa's palace. I can have her summoned immediately.

There is no need. I will go there. You may go.

Say whatever you have to say.

I have good news for you, Your Majesty.

She would have liked to tell you herself, but...

Tell me, man.

Sultan Hurrem is with child. Thanks be to Allah.

Have the one below brought up here.

-Get up. We are going. -Where are we going?

-Is the pasha releasing me? -Move. Don't speak.

My sultan.

Please come in.

Ibrahim Pasa.

-Wait outside. -Yes, my pasha.

What do you know?

I know everything, Lady Hurrem.

Everything.

For example, your childhood sweetheart, Leo.

He came all the way here to see you.

-Nigar Kalfa. -Sadika.

Why are you here?

Would you like to come to the garden?

You get back to work. I'm not going to ask you where to wait.

How could you believe the slander and trickery?

Don't you know that the person who will be most damaged by this is His Majesty?

This lie will leave him heartbroken.

Don't waste your breath.

There is no slander or trickery.

This is the truth itself.

I heard it straight from Leo.

You are lying.

You are doing this to take revenge.

You never liked me, never respected me.

You are the devil.

Help me, Nigar Kalfa.

Alex.

Leo.

Come, Leo.

You are finally united.

Are you still going to deny it?

The sultan is not at fault! I came after her!

Let's talk about the letters.

Let's talk about the secret rendezvous.

Do you know what the punishment is?

What do you want of me?

You are going to die, Lady Hurrem.

When this comes to light...

...His Majesty will sentence you to death himself.

It wouldn't be so bad if it was just you.

But your children will not be spared either.

They will be strangled one by one.

How can the children of such a mother be left alive?

No.

No, this cannot be.

It is so.

The laws and the precepts demand it.

No mercy.

Forgive me, my sultan.

I should have left immediately.

I didn't listen to you.

She has done nothing wrong.

Ibrahim Pasa.

I did not betray His Majesty.

I am ready to burn in flames, but that I will not accept.

He is the sultan of my heart.

The father of my children.

I thought Leo was dead.

Nobody will believe that.

Nobody will believe you.

His Excellency Sultan Suleiman Khan.

Your Majesty.

I will inform Ibrahim Pasa of your arrival.

I will wait here.

And bring me some cold sherbet. Tell Sultan Hurrem to come here.

Inform the tasters that His Majesty is being brought sherbet.

His Majesty has arrived. He is waiting in the garden.

-You are lying. -Come and see for yourself.

Do you see?

Not now, Lady Hurrem.

I don't lie.

Come here.

This is a very potent poison.

It works very fast.

First it paralyzes.

Then your lungs explode...

...your mouth fills with blood...

...and you drown in your own blood.

The time has come, Lady Hurrem.

Don't show me any mercy.

But spare my children.

I warned you. Do you remember?

I told you not to bite off more than you can chew.

Now do you see what happened?

I hold your fate in my hands.

My pasha.

Spare her.

-Kill me. -That's enough out of you. Don't beg.

You decide who leaves this room alive, Lady Hurrem.

Do you understand?

Thank you, Nigar Kalfa.

Thanks to you, we will resolve this important matter.

Please enjoy, Your Majesty.

Have you sent word?

I did. They are coming, Your Majesty.

Hurry up. Keep your promise. The time has come.

Stay back!

This is the end for you, Suleiman.
