Episode 42

Your Majesty.

You summoned me?

Did Hurrem arrive?

She hasn't come yet, your Majesty. We've been waiting as well.

Inform me when she arrives.

Summon Bali Bey.

Private Chamberlain is not here.

He went to welcome Sultana Hurrem.

Go back to the palace.

Inform His Majesty and Ibrahim Pasha.

Come with me.

Your Majesty.

Has Hurrem arrived?

Your Majesty...

A message came from Bali Bey.

Sultana Hurrem fell into an ambush on the way.

She's been attacked.

Will it be a girl?

Or a boy? I'm really wondering.

Nigar Kalfa.

What happened? What's wrong?

Are not you happy to get married?

Your Highness...

I'm surprised, I didn't expect it at all.

I think Nasuh Effendi is a good candidate.

He's well-off.

I have no doubt that you will live in happiness.

Insallah.

Come in.

Your Grace.

Go on.

Sultana Hurrem was attacked.

Sultana Hurrem.

How is she? We don't know, Your Grace.

Because Her Highness is lost.

She might have been killed.

Lost?

How is she lost?

Who informed you?

Bali Bey.

He made it there just in time.

Prepare my horse.

Malkocoglu, give information immediately.

A group of bandits...

...they cut trees to cover the road. They killed the guards.

We arrived just in time when they were about to kill Her Highness.

-Where's Hurrem? Is she alive? -I hope so.

She ran to the forest.

I followed her. They saw another man in the forest and they followed him.

But they lost his track in the darkness...

What do you mean she is lost?

Bali Bey, you are talking about my family! She can't be lost.

Pull yourselves together!

Find her or get lost! I'll destroy all of you!

Is my lion gone?

He left as soon as he heard.

His Grace is informed as well.

Have you heard anything else? How is Hurrem? Is she alive?

Bali Bey made it there. But we don't know how she is.

Bali Bey?

Luckily you sent him, Your Highness.

I hope he saved Her Highness.

Who told you I sent him?

Private Chamberlain said that before he left.

Matron Daye had told her.

Bring me Daye now.

As you wish, Your Highness.

Matron Daye.

Queen Mother is expecting you.

What is it?

Don't ask what happened.

Sultana Hurrem has been attacked. She might be dead.

-Sultana Hurrem is dead. -Who dares this? How?

Enough!

Shut your mouths. Nobody will talk.

Mihrimah is in the hunting lodge. We should be sure of her safety.

Bring her from out of there immediately.

As you command, your Majesty.

Your Majesty, one of the bandits is alive.

But he's heavily wounded.

Ball Bey, question him.

Yes, Your Highness?

Did you tell Bali Bey to go?

That's right, Your Highness.

I talked to him.

Why was that?

Are you on Hurrem's side too?

Of course not, Your Highness.

I'd die for you.

I wanted to protect you.

What protection?

I sensed that something would happen to Sultana Hurrem.

I had a feeling.

Your Highness...

...I didn't want them to suspect you.

So that's why I did it.

I sent him late on purpose.

I'm asking for your forgiveness for acting on my own.

I hope it is as you say, Daye.

It was for your sake, Your Highness.

Well done! Who asked you to do that?

Who are you?

Who ordered you?

Speak!

Speak!

Who is your leader?

Who is the man that escaped?

Is that so?

Ferhat.

Ferhat... Ferhat hired us.

Ferhat...

Girls!

Are you chattering again?

You are chattering like birds!

Haven't you heard, Agha? They say Sultana Hurrem is dead.

What?

Dead?

My God...

Agha, are you okay Agha?

Rest in peace.

Amen.

Your Majesty.

I left as soon as I heard.

Is Her Highness still lost?

Nobody heard, saw or knows.

Who would dare, Pargali?

Who can dare to insult my harem, my Sultana, the mother of my children?

I heard it was the bandits.

Is there something else?

I don't know, the only thing I want now is to find Hurrem.

Your Majesty, Your Grace.

I made the wounded bandit speak.

-What did that traitor say? -Someone called Ferhat hired them.

He is from Afyon. His nickname is Ferhat the Corrupt. That's all he knows.

How are the children?

I hope they haven't heard.

They are all sleeping, Your Highness.

They don't know a thing.

Pity.

They are all so young.

How do we know she's dead?

They said she's lost.

-Mother. -Hatice, my girl.

Why did you come at this time?

I couldn't just sit.

Is there any news?

No, we are waiting.

Pity for her children.

I hope she'll be found unharmed.

-Insallah. -Amen.

May who did this...

...be punished immediately by god.

Your Majesty, we searched all around the woods, everywhere.

But Her Highness is still missing.

There's a river nearby.

I'm afraid Her Highness may have been killed and--

She's alive, Pargali.

I can hear her breath.

I can smell her.

Her heart is still beating.

I feel cold.

It's so dark and I'm afraid.

Send me a light, Suleyman.

I'm going to die alone.

Enlighten my way.

You couldn't protect me, see?

They killed me.

But protect my children.

Suleyman...

Suleyman...

Suleyman...

Suleyman...

Luckily we overcame this trouble too, Your Grace.

May god grant a long life to Her Highness.

Amen.

Gul Agha.

Have you heard it Nigar Kalfa?

They killed Her Highness.

They couldn't even find her body.

I told her.

She didn't listen to me.

She made everybody her enemy.

This was going to happen.

Maybe she's not dead.

She might be alive.

She wouldn't die anyway.

Could great Sultana Hurrem die?

No way.

-She's back. -Bismillah.

Call a physician.

Like a cat with nine lives.

She's back again.

Suleyman.

Where am I?

With me, you're home.

You took me from death.

Suleyman, you heard me.

Mother.

Mehmet, my son.

Selim.

Mother.

Bayezid.

I though I would never see you again.

But you are here.

I missed you so much.

We missed you too mother.

You are sick.

Nothing serious. I'll be fine.

Mihrimah?

Where's she Gul Agha? Where's my girl?

Don't worry Your Highness. She's fine.

Sumbul Agha went to take her. She'll be here.

Oh good. Bayezid, come.

Come here. Come.

You scared us.

We heard such things, we were so afraid.

This palace turned into hell during your absence.

Selim.

Come here.

-Your Grace. -Find me Ferhat now!

We are supposed to meet at market place today. I'll take him to the port.

I'll send him with the first possible ship.

One of the men he hired gave away his name.

He's wanted everywhere, it's a matter of time before he's caught.

You'll find and destroy him.

If he gets caught...

and speak...

...the consequences will be a disaster.

As you command, Your Grace.

What's this marriage about, Matrakchi?

Ibrahim Pasha wants it. He wants me to settle down.

Who's the unlucky girl?

One of the Kalfas at the palace. Her name is Nigar.

Nigar Kalfa?

Good.

When is the wedding?

Not sure yet. It is just discussed.

Congratulations.

I hope the same for you.

I closed that chapter long ago.

Who could I love now?

How can I forget Armin?

Don't talk like that, Bey. You never know.

Never mind that.

I must find that bandit Ferhat the Corrupt.

You know who to ask. Who should we ask to?

Go, ask Ishak Agha at the meat square.

If he's from Afyon, Ishak Agha should know him.

Ishak Agha.

Your Majesty. You summoned me.

Come, Pasha.

Get close.

A vile incident happened last night.

Bandits stopped Sultana Hurrem's carriage and tried to kill her.

How can it happen?

That's what I'm wondering, Pasha.

Investigate it immediately.

But nobody will know about this investigation.

Not even Ibrahim Pasha.

Investigate secretly.

I want to know whoever did it.

Mother.

My beautiful.

Why are you sleeping?

I'm a little sick.

But don't worry. I'll be fine.

Mihrimah, you are back!

I'm back, brother.

Come here, come closer.

Be careful.

May god let you be happy forever, Your Highness.

Amen.

Your Highness.

Get well Hurrem. How have you been?

I feel better for I see you now.

Queen Mother visited her.

Sultana Hatice will go too.

Shouldn't you also be there, Your Highness?

I'm saying this for you.

What kind of woman is she?

Nothing works on her.

She's got her position back.

I think something's fishy.

Perhaps she played a game just to come back to the palace.

I expect anything from her.

Your Highness...

...you were the one who called me to the palace.

When the message came, I hit the road.

But...

But the bandits...

It was not because I care about you.

My grandchildren were pretty sad.

I did it for them.

Fortunately I'm back.

They won't be sad.

The fact that you are back here...

...doesn't change my decision about you Hurrem.

When you recover, you'll be banished again.

No, no banishment.

His Majesty wouldn't send me again.

Here, in my home...

...I'll be waiting patiently for that magnificent marriage day.

Look what you are thinking about even when you are in sick in bed.

As long as I live, that marriage won't happen, Hurrem.

My lion has no intention like that anyway.

And he can't.

Stop fooling yourself with pipe dreams.

Is that why you are so afraid?

Get well soon, Hurrem.

Thank you Your Highness.

How are you feeling now?

I have a little pain but I'm fine.

Get well.

I'll be well, Your Highness.

The ones who did this cruelty to me...

...will pay the price of it.

As they are destroyed...

...I'll recover quickly and get more powerful.

Don't be afraid, you are coming with me.

-What happened? -His Grace sent me.

There's a boat waiting for you at Tophane.

There's a ship in the sea, you'll go to Egypt.

Why are you so late?

They are looking for me everywhere.

Don't drag it, I'm here now. Follow me.

Your Majesty.

Pargali, what's the status?

I'm investigating it myself, your Majesty.

It's a matter of time before we arrest that bandit called Ferhat.

How do you know he's a bandit?

Let's say he's a bandit, how do you know he's not working for someone?

I don't think so, who could dare that?

But I'll consider your concern about this matter.

You better do.

Because neither I nor anybody around me...

...will get peace before I get rid of this suspicion.

Since nobody knows him at the meat square, he shouldn't be from here.

Maybe he came to the capital city just for this mission.

It seems so.

Anyway, let's go back to the palace. His Majesty is waiting for me.

I was just looking for you.

Will she stay here permanently?

This is not the time to talk about it.

You said she wouldn't even step in this palace.

Don't talk like you don't know what happened.

Didn't you see her?

And it is not your business, Mahidevran.

Don't interfere. Don't tell your opinion about it.

Stay away from anything that'll damage your relation with my lion.

I'm afraid Hurrem will damage it.

She's already started.

Go back to your chamber.

Auntie, I missed you very much.

Me too.

I missed you too.

I don't want to stay away from my brothers again.

Please auntie, let's stay here. I don't want to go.

Hurrem.

You don't know that I'm pregnant.

I'd like to share the good news with you.

May god bless you.

-I'm so happy. -Amen.

Welcome, mother.

What's the matter?

I visited Hurrem.

She's pretty sad and afraid.

Thankfully she survived.

Otherwise I'd feel very bad.

You know, I called her to the palace.

If you look for a guilty, that's me.

I banished her.

How could we foresee what would happen?

Anyway.

This time, we shall be more cautious.

When she recovers, we can send her to the old palace.

It's closer and also safer.

Hurrem is not going anywhere, mother.

She belongs here.

As you wish.

But don't forget, Hurrem made a big mistake.

The punishment was not even enough.

Your Highness.

Ibrahim, how can you make such mistake?

There are no mistakes, Your Highness.

As you ordered, I did the necessary thing.

But someone informed Bali Bey.

Daye informed him.

To protect me, she says.

She sure wants to protect someone.

No, Daye is loyal to me.

She'd never betray me.

Anyway, whatever happened, happened. Clean the mess.

Don't you worry.

If you want your death to be easy, start speaking.

You will speak.

You will speak!

Your Grace.

Speak.

The leader of the bandits, Ferhat is arrested.

-Is he alive? -Yes, he's taken to the dungeon.

Private Chamberlain told me to inform you and his Majesty.

Don't bother his Majesty because of this matter!

I'll take care of it.

His Majesty, Sultan Suleyman Khan!

Don't be bothered.

Lay down.

How's she?

Your Majesty, she's been beaten up badly.

And her back is injured.

We've started the treatment but she should rest for a few weeks.

Do whatever is necessary.

Get well soon.

Sleep, get some rest.

Suleyman.

I don't have more time to waste with you.

Either speak now...

...or I'll cut you up.

Your arms first.

Then your legs.

Stop.

Okay...

I'll tell everything.

Your Grace.

How's it going?

Has he spoken yet?

He resisted at first.

But he just said that he'll tell everything.

Really?

I came just in time then.

They came from the palace in the evening.

I was told that Queen Mother permitted me to see my children.

I thought you gave the permission.

If I knew, I'd have prevented it.

Maybe that's why you were not informed.

What does it mean?

Doesn't it say something that I've been summoned in the middle of the night?

When there's a daytime.

Our enemies obviously played a game.

Who are the "enemies", Hurrem?

My mother? Ibrahim?

Do you mean they wanted to kill you?

How do you get these ideas?

Are you aware of who you are accusing?

Suleyman don't be angry, please.

I'm upset.

I think about all kinds of things.

My horse was killed at first.

Then my most loyal servant.

I was banished when I had no fault.

I missed my love and children a lot.

And this last incident was such a nightmare.

Come on, do tell.

We are bandits.

We've been watching the hunting lodge for a long time.

We took action when we got the opportunity.

We had no other intentions besides the money.

Drop that! Who ordered you? Tell me.

Your Majesty.

You wanted me to investigate that incident.

Speak, tell me what you have learned.

We've learnt their name one by one.

Everyone of them are known as looters or thieves.

They took part of many crimes like this one.

We didn't find anything who was behind it.

It looks like a casual bandit attack.

Or whoever hired them found a way to make it look like that.

It is possible, your Majesty.

I need their leader.

Hasn't he been found yet? Haven't you heard?

Your Highness, you summoned me.

Esma, that's enough.

Go, take care of the children.

Alright, Your Highness.

Matron Daye.

I don't know how to thank you.

You can ask anything from me.

Your Highness.

I don't understand why you are thanking me.

That night.

You sent Bali Bey.

No, with Queen Mother's order--

Don't waste your breath.

The Queen Mother wouldn't give such an order.

You saved me.

Your Highness.

Please keep me out of these matters.

I just want to be busy with my duties.

Because what matters for me is the peace and order of the harem.

Matron Daye.

Very soon...

I'll be providing the peace and order of the harem.

When that day comes...

...I'd like to see you by my side.

Hurrem will stay here, Mahidevran.

My lion deems it proper like that.

But... How?

The last incident upset him.

He wants her near him for not to experience same things once again.

What if Hurrem gets what she wants?

What if she convinces his Majesty...

...and marry him?

That's impossible.

I'm sorry, my Agha.

What are you talking about?

Haven't you heart? Your friend is getting married.

Who is my friend? Who are you talking about man?

Nigar Kalfa.

Don't talk nonsense. Leave me alone.

How do you think of these lies?

You can ask her if you don't believe me.

I just saw her in the kitchen.

She was crying for being a bride.

-Are you serious? -Serious.

It is not my business.

She can marry if she wants to.

Don't say so.

You missed such a beautiful girl.

That nasty mouth of yours!

Like there's something between us.

There's not?

No.

I'm not you.

Demon!

Oh, I'm so offended.

Nigar Kalfa, why this dessert at this hour?

Why would a great Sultana want this poor man's dessert?

Look, I made a nice dessert, very fresh.

As you know, Her Highness is pregnant.

She's craving it.

Nigar Kalfa.

Good evening, Gul Agha.

Forget about the evening now.

I heard something. Is that right?

What did you hear?

Mind your business!

The demon Sumbul told me that you're going to marry.

But I didn't believe him.

You know his stupid behaviours.

He's right, my Agha.

Is that right?

What's your fault again?

Is this a punishment?

No.

I want to marry too.

I'll have whatever is written in my destiny.

Nigar Kalfa the poor man's dessert is ready.

I put pomegranate on it too.

Let's go.

Don't drop it.

-God bless your hands. -Thank you.

Gul Agha.

Gul Agha.

What happened?

-You want to know what happened? -What?

None of your business happened!

None of your business!

Your Majesty.

You came at last.

Something happened about the incident. That's why we are late.

I know.

The leader of the bandits is captured.

That's right.

I went there as soon as I heard.

Bali Bey had started to question him before me.

Then I questioned him myself.

What did he say?

Drop that! Who hired you? Say that!

Answer, come on.

Nobody hired us.

I decided myself.

You decided yourself?

Who do you think you are?

Who are you to try to rob a dynasty member?

Who do you serve? Say it!

Behead him...

...and put his head on a stick and show it in the city.

So it will be a lesson for the people.

If I didn't act first, he'd kill me, your Majesty.

Since the criminals are punished.

This case is over.

-Malkocoglu. -Yes, your Majesty.

I owe you my life.

Because Hurrem's life is my life.

You don't owe me anything, your Majesty.

Your appreciation is the greatest gift for me.

You may take your leave.

You stay.

You two may leave.

Ibrahim, I've made a decision.

You are my Pasha.

You are my Grand Vizier, my Serasker.

You are my bosom friend...

...my brother.

I want you to know this first.

Is it about me, your Majesty?

Nigar is going to marry?

She said it herself.

That's right.

Interesting. What happened suddenly?

She said she wanted it herself.

Do you know who's the groom?

She didn't say it, Your Highness.

Anyway, I wish her the best.

Why did you summon me, Your Highness?

You see it.

My enemies are waiting in ambush to destroy me.

Keep your eyes open, Gul Agha.

You should gather the most trusted concubines, Aghas, guards together.

Meaning...

I want you to gather a team...

...that is loyal to me and serve me in loyalty.

I only trust you.

I understand this glorious mission you give to me.

I'm honored, Your Highness.

But it is very difficult and it would take a long time.

I'm not in a hurry.

Do everything in order.

Because a big war is waiting for us.

We'll either win or we will die all together.

Don't say that, Your Highness.

You scare me, god forbid.

Gul Agha, not you.

My enemies should be scared.

Mother.

Welcome, my lion.

How are my lion cubs?

Mehmet is afraid of circumcision, father.

No, I'm not afraid at all!

No fear. With this circumcision, you'll take your first step to being a man.

Ibrahim, the son of the Greek fisherman Manolis.

The Grand Vizier of Ottoman Empire.

The Commander in Chief of the glorious Ottoman army.

The husband of the Sultana Hatice of Ottoman dynasty.

Ibrahim Pasha.

Is it not enough yet?

Won't this power play end?

How many more times will you stain your hand with blood and poison?

How many more times will you let your enemy to turn your heart into pieces?

How can a woman be ten times more dangerous and tough?

Don't be surprised, Ibrahim. Don't be surprised, Theo.

She's a converted too, just like you.

Alexandra from Ruthenia.

You picked your own devil.

You created her.

For Sultan Suleyman.

You converted, you obeyed, you won.

Obey again.

Lose against your greed again.

Lose...

...so you'll have enough anger to fight.

June 1530

Come on, ya Allah!

Welcome, your Majesty.

How's our feast going? Is everyone pleased?

The entertainments are continuing all around the capital city.

Everybody is pleased, everyone's praying.

The most fantastic of the Sultanas.

-What happened? -I've got news for you.

I found the guy you wanted.

Guard Percem Agha.

He also set someone suitable.

Did you tell him what we want?

Yes, Your Highness. Everything will be done smoothly.

May god bless Sultan Suleyman. People have got some money.

A lot of money is spent. The treasury is empty.

Percem Agha.

The mission is difficult, Agha.

It's very dangerous.

I want more gold.

How can I help you Agha?

Show me the silks.

Don't worry about it.

You'll get more.

They'll make you rich.

It's good.

-Show that one too. -Sure.

Go now.

I'll send you a message.

Your Highness.

For the tables that are set all around the capital city:

4100 sheep.

1350 lambs, 750 cows.

19,500 chicken, 235 geese.

And 1500 duck have been supplied.

And we are still distributing.

Your Highness, we also bought 69,000 kilograms of rice...

...25,000 kilograms of oil and 93,000 kilograms of sugar.

Our barns are full, masallah.

The tradesmen have nothing left. We bought everything there is.

The marketplace is in joy.

2300 boys has been circumcised among with the princes.

Your subjects are very happy.

Our guests who came from a long way are being hosted in the best way.

A feast worthy of my princes have been done.

May Allah let me to see the future of my other princes too, inshallah.

-Amen. -Amen.

Make it sure our subjects get everything.

Everyone should benefit.

Every household should have this wealth.

The shows that are arranged for the feast are magnificent.

You should check them out.

The new sculptures that are brought from Buda are being displayed too.

There are different kinds of animals around.

The boys are being circumcises all around the city.

Huge tables are being set.

Your Grace.

Your Majesty.

If you allow me, I'll go and see Sultana Hatice.

You know, it's about health.

Ibrahim, you're even more worried than Hatice.

-Your Grace. -Your Highness.

At last we came across.

You know, we haven't met for a long time. How are you?

Thank you. You?

I'm very well.

I wanted to see the children.

And I'll also watch the entertainments.

Of course.

They are inside, I was about to go too.

After you.

Quit acting, Ibrahim.

Don't try to fool anyone.

Because only me and God know who you really are.

Your carriage is ready, Your Highness.

I'm not in a hurry.

I want to pick a concubine first.

Bring everyone who is smart, beautiful, and mannered.

If it is for dancing, I already picked them, Your Highness.

It's not.

When Suleyman said that Hurrem will stay here, I was worried.

Luckily, what I was afraid of didn't happen.

He has not accepted Hurrem for months.

He's not visiting her either.

Obviously his heart is so broken.

He will not forgive Hurrem.

Anyway.

It can't go on like that. Privy chamber shouldn't be empty.

Why is this accursed still here?

When will she marry?

After the feast.

We want the feast to end first.

-Your Highness. -Hurrem.

Welcome, have a seat.

-Your Highness. -Ibrahim?

-Why did you come? -I was worried about you.

Don't tire yourself please.

I'm fine, don't worry.

Where did you come from?

Belgrade, Your Highness.

-What's your name? -Mila.

Mila.

-How old are you? -19.

Are you happy to be in the harem?

Thanks to you, Your Highness.

Serving you is a great honour for me.

Okay, you may take your leaves.

Prepare that girl.

She'll go to the privy chamber tonight.

You look so handsome.

I'll send you to your father, he should see you too.

Not now Hurrem.

My lion is busy.

I want a magnificent Kaftan made for me too.

Where's Bayezid?

He's asleep. He's tired.

Good.

Why did you come here?

Gul Agha sent me. He said that...

...someone will be sent to the privy chamber tonight.

Who?

Gul Agha didn't say it.

He's asking what are we going to do?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

Then the eagle ate all the innocent ones.

It's nice, isn't it? Look at me!

There are tones of things to do and you are having fun here.

It's none of your business.

Go away.

Look at me, behave yourself or I'll slap you.

Don't try to teach me how to behave.

Go away.

What do you think you are doing?

Wait here.

Come in.

Your Majesty.

The Queen Mother has a concubine prepared for you.

She's waiting for acceptance.

You are grown up men.

You are fighting like children, I'm tired of you.

Matron Daye, he attacked me with no reason.

Who? Slander! I'm innocent.

Shut your mouths.

All these onions will be peeled.

Seker Agha, keep an eye on them.

Don't you worry, Matron Daye.

"Don't you worry"?

Nasty bootlicker. He's even laughing!

Are you having so much fun?

No, my Agha. I'm so sad for you.

Yeah, sure. Nasty fatty.

Matron Daye!

Did you get the news?

Queen Mother didn't send you. That means you're hopeless.

My hope is right there.

As you know, he's the crown prince.

Circumcision is the registration of it.

Your Highness, his Majesty refused the concubine.

Didn't he like her?

He refused her from the door. He didn't even see her.

Your Highness, what happened?

Is there a bad news?

Your Majesty, good morning. To you too, Malkocoglu.

Let's go.

The Queen Mother is here. She wants to see you.

Let her in.

You may enter, Your Highness.

Mother.

What's the matter?

The matter is you, my son.

I see that I have no importance for you.

You are ignoring and refusing everything I do for your happiness.

Mother, I'm the one who decides who comes or leaves this room.

What's on your mind, Suleyman? What do you want to do?

There are many things in my mind mother.

I mean Hurrem. She wants to marry with you.

I don't want to discuss it, mother.

My lion, you know the rules at least as well as me.

Harem's ancient rules are there for a reason.

Every single rule is set to prevent kinds of incidents.

You can't forget this truth and marry Hurrem.

Never ever.

Don't even think about it.

It's against our history.

It's a threat for our dynasty and the sake of the Ottoman Empire.

Are you done, mother?

As long as I live, that marriage won't happen, my son.

Otherwise, I'll disown you.

Your Majesty.

May God grant you and your princes a long life.

Amen.

Ibrahim Pasha, your Lordship.

Ayaz Pasha.

This feast is too big for a circumcision. I don't get it.

His Majesty wanted it.

Good.

Orders are orders.

Whatever his Majesty does, it must be good.

Mufti Effendi, I'd like to talk to you some time. It's an important matter.

Whenever you want your Majesty.

Your Highness.

If I'm bothering you...

No, come.

I was wondering about the baby.

I'm a little tired.

I wanted to rest.

You should be careful.

These are the toughest times.

I'm sorry. I didn't want to make you sad.

I've been so careful for months.

My baby will born soon.

I'll take it in my arms.

But I can't get rid of the fear.

What if something bad happens again?

Don't even think about such things.

Your son will born and grow up like a lion.

We'll have his circumcision feast too.

Of course, if it's a boy.

It will be finished today.

We've got no other way.

Don't worry, my Agha.

Wear these now.

Go near the other archers.

Be careful, do not be seen.

Malkocoglu...

...this circumcision feast is even better than I thought.

-Congratulations. -I'm honored, your grace.

-Ibrahim Pasha. -Your Majesty.

Tell me...

...was your wedding more magnificent or this circumcision feast?

It's not as magnificent as my wedding, your Majesty.

-Is that so? -Certainly.

Because a world Sultan was a guest at my wedding.

Well done, Ibrahim Pasha.

You have such a way with words.

Draw!

Aim!

Loose!

Come on, rest a little bit.

No sadness. It is not good for the baby.

I'm not only thinking about my baby, Hurrem.

I'm afraid for Ibrahim too.

What if something happens to him?

What if he leaves us alone, when we are about to be happy?

I can't stop thinking about these.

I've always waited for the day we are a happy family.

But now my happiness holds me.

I met with Yakup Effendi.

He told me that there'll be a death in my family.

Your Highness.

His Majesty wants to see you.

Go, I'm fine.

Gul Agha, his Majesty wants me?

Yes Your Highness. He wants you to go to the backyard.

Alright.

Go and find the man quick. Tell him that I changed my mind.

What man? What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the guy whom Percem Agha found.

Send a message now, make it stop.

How can it be?

I don't want any deaths anymore, understood?

What are you waiting for? Run!

But I don't know the guy.

Then find Percem Agha.

He must stop. Come on, run!

As you wish, Your Highness.

Draw!

Aim!

Loose!

Draw!

Aim!

Loose!

My Hatice, what's wrong?

I just felt a little nauseous, Your Highness, I'm resting.

Oh god, why didn't you tell me?

Hurrem was here.

-She took care of me. -Where's she now?

She left a while ago.

His Majesty called her.

Your Majesty.

Welcome Hurrem.

You wanted to see me?

Yes, there's something I want you to see.

Ibrahim Pasha.

I just got the good news.

I hope the baby will be born healthy and grow up with his mother and father.

Thank you, Behram Pasha.

Your Grace, I didn't have the chance to congratulate your Serasker position.

This position would only suit you.

Good news, Behram Pasha.

You are in peace with Grand Vizier his Lordship.

We have no offence to each other.

There can't be offence in the state.

I'm at Ibrahim Pasha's service.

What do you want me to see? I don't understand.

Come with me.

Aim!

Loose!

Draw!

Aim!

Loose!

Your Grace, I'd like to talk with you at an appropriate time.

What's the matter?

Very important, Your Grace. I'll tell you.

Only you would understand me.

You know, a problem shared is a problem halved.

What does it mean?

Ibrahim, I have made a decision.

You are my Pasha.

You are my Grand Vizier, my Serasker.

You are my bosom friend...

...my brother.

I want you to know this first.

Is it about me, your Majesty?

As you know...

...we'll have a a circumcision feast soon.

But this circumcision feast has a different meaning for me.

Because on that day...

...I'll marry Hurrem.

This is a secret between us.

Nobody should know it.

Neither my mother, nor Hurrem or anybody else.

Do you understand me?

I... I understand, your Majesty.

Additionally...

...what happened to Hurrem upset me.

From now on, I don't even want Hurrem's single hair to be hurt.

Hurrem is entrusted to you.

You'll protect her with your life.

Even if she trips and falls down, I'll blame it on you. You should know that.

Look.

With the command of God and the word of the Prophet...

...and with the belief of the witnesses...

Is this our solemnize?

Do you accept Son of Selim Khan...

...Sultan Suleyman as a husband, with 100.000 coins indemnity?

I accept.

-Do you accept? -I accept.

-Do you accept? -I accept.

Do you accept the daughter of Abdullah...

...Sultana Hurrem as a wife, as the proxy of Sultan Suleyman?

I accept.

-Do you accept? -I accept.

-Do you accept? -I accept.

As the witnesses, do you witness?

Yes we do.

-Do you? -Yes we do.

-Do you? -We do.

After the faith of the witnesses...

...I marry them as husband and wife.

Suleyman...

My love.

The light of my eye.

The reason of my existence.

Who captives me with her eyes.

My woman...

My wife...
