I said what happened?

Your Highness.

When I found you, you were laying on the ground.

Where was I?

Seeing you in this state, I was very scared.

You did not wake up, so I got you carried here.

You need to take a rest.

Sumbul Agha.

Your Highness.

Where did you find me?

Your Highness, don't you remember?

You went to see Sultana Mihrimah to the marble palace.

-I found you there. -What about Mihrimah? Is she okay?

She's okay, Your Highness. Do not worry. She is perfectly fine.

When you left, I ran into Sultana Mihrimah.

I learned that she was never in the marble palace.

I said, "My God, Sultana Hurrem has fallen into a trap.”

Your Highness, do not get up.

Okay okay!

Where were you?

I hope you did not get yourself into trouble again!

I was strolling around the garden a bit.

Am I forbidden to leave the room?

What stroll? Who are you trying to fool?

Tell me what you did to Hurrem?

Nothing, we talked a little.

I told you to be careful.

Your smallest error can bring us big trouble!

Stop treating me like a little kid!

I do not need any advice. I know what to do.

I hope so, Hatice.

I hope, you know what you are doing.

Your Highness, what happened?

Mother?

Mihrimah. Where were you? Before you returned to your chambers?

I was in the palace garden.

Did you tell me that you went to the marble palace? Or did you send me such a message?

Mother, you scare me.

What happened to you?

-Is there a problem? -Mihrimah, answer me.

Did you call me to the marble palace?

No, Sumbul Agha also asked. I was never there.

-I was there... -Mother!

Call the physicians immediately! Don't you hear me? Hurry!

I am them at once, Your Highness.

Mother, what's wrong with you?

I do not know, stay away from me. Don't get close.

I'm worried about Hatice, Mercan.

-It's obvious she's hiding something. -What might have happened?

Isn't Hurrem back yet?

I don't know but I can learn if you'd wish.

Thankfully, Hurrem came back safe and sound.

But still keep your eyes open.

-I want to know what happened today. -Do not worry, Your Highness.

No. No. No!

Cihangir is here.

Take him to Mehmet's chambers.

What are you standing for? Hurry up!

Take the Prince away from here. Quick!

Mom?

Son, do not be afraid.

Your brothers are waiting for you.

Go to them, then I will come for you.

Mihrimah, take away Cihangir.

Come.

Your Highness, are you alright?

No Mihrimah!

I told you, go to your brothers!

This might be contagious!

No, Mother! I will not leave you alone.

Notify His Majesty immediately.

-Your Majesty. -Yahya!

Brother.

Welcome.

Forgive me. I did not want to host you in such conditions.

Does not matter.

I see that you are sunk in a sea full of knowledge.

I got the book "Er-Risalaat al Muhammadia”...

...by the great mathematics teacher Ali Qushiji.

It writes about the Mathematics science.

Your Majesty. Will you sit down?

Ferhat!

Yes, Lord.

Collect fresh fruits from the garden for His Majesty.

Do not forget to bring the ginger sherbet.

As you wish.

Come Yahya Sit.

How do you do? I have not seen you for a long time.

Seeing you now, I feel better, brother.

I was worried about you, I hope you are well?

Don't ask questions, hear no lies.

Fahriye, you also stay away.

We still do not know if it is contagious.

Your Highness, I heard about the matter just now.

May God protect you. What's wrong?

I do not feel well. Afife.

I breathe heavily, I have a fever.

Look what they did to me.

God, protect our Sultana!

-Where is the Prince? -I sent him to Mehmet's chambers.

Mihrimah has just left here.

Sumbul, keep an eye on my children. They can not enter this room!

Do not worry, Your Highness.

I will inform His Majesty about everything.

He is not in the palace, he's been out for long. We'll inform him once he gets here.

What is this, woman? Is it a disease or a poison?

Speak!

It's hard to say. But it does not look like poison.

-A disease is more likely. -What disease?

Contagious?

I don't think it's contagious, Your Highness.

Sometimes, from stress and sadness, this may happen.

Red spots appear on the skin.

I will prepare an ointment for your skin.

Agha, we need to prepare an ointment out of wild pear and buck thorn.

Fahriye Hatun get it ready immediately.

Come on, quickly!

No one can doubt your knowledge Yahya.

-You honor me, Your Majesty. -It's true.

Do you remember how I told you about my dream some time ago?

And you told me that I would have to make a difficult decision.

Yahya, I made that decision.

But as you said, I've been grieving ever since.

Is It about Ibrahim Pasha?

How many seasons have passed?

How many springs, how many winters? I do not know anymore.

Can't sleep, day or night.

I'm deprived of a cool night's sleep.

I am burning with a fire, Yahya!

I always have the same dream.

I wake up on a bloody bed.

In my ears I hear Ibrahim's voice.

By God, tell me brother. Tell me when it will end!

When will this fire in me will be quenched?

When will the voice in my ears quit? Say!

Let's pray that this pain will end with your lifetime.

Brother. What are you saying?

There are pains that do not leave.

Until the grave.

As his trouble is with his conscience.

My soul will not have peace?

Is this what you tell me?

Let us pray that God will not give you a greater pain.

Your Highness, before you go to sleep, you should apply it once more.

It will heal, right? It will get better.

I hope so, I've done everything I could.

-Rest and sleep will help you a lot. -Keep your mouth shut, woman.

No one can find out.

Do not be sad, Your Highness.

With God's help you will overcome the disease.

But you need to rest. You need to sleep.

-Where did His Majesty go? -I do not know about it.

Watch out Afife Hatun!

This incident will be a secret.

I don't want rumors in the harem.

As you wish, Your Highness.

Your Highness, can't you still remember anything?

Come in.

-Your Highness, you wanted to see me. -Come, Nigar.

Hatice met with Hurrem.

She did not tell me what happened, but something must have happened.

-Do you know something? -Forgive me, Your Highness.

I thought you knew.

The sultana entered the marble palace and told us to wait outside.

Did anyone...

...enter the marble palace?

No, Afife Hatun.

We waited for a long time and then Sumbul Agha came.

When we went inside, The Sultana was on the ground.

You fools.

You've been standing in front of the palace...

...for so long and you have not seen anyone?

If not, how could you leave the Sultana alone?

She wanted it herself.

Fahriye Kalfa, where were you when the Sultana left?

I've already told you, I was with Prince Cihangir then.

What happened before this incident?

What did the Sultana do all day?

-Haven't anyone visited her? -Nigar Hatun came along, sometime.

And after her arrival, the Sultana left.

Why don't you say so before?

So Nigar came.

Find wherever Nigar Hatun is and bring her to me!

Take it easy, Celalzade.

Thank you pasha, do you have any wishes?

The guards told me you were inside.

I have to ask you about something.

Yes Pasha, what is it about?

Ibrahim Pasha's properties, money and...

...gold are given back to the treasury, right?

Yes, pasha. The property was confiscated...

...by the main bookkeeper of the state.

So now our treasure must be full to the brim.

Everyone knows how rich was the late pasha.

Except his family's property, all his money, gold, jewelry...

...his real estate, everything was confiscated.

I don't know much about the details.

-I can investigate if you wish. -That would be good.

As soon as Father comes back, I will tell him everything.

Who did this to you, Mother?

Is it Sultana Hatice?

Mihrimah, do not be worried. We still don't know what happened.

How are your brothers?

You didn't tell them anything right?

No but Cihangir's very sad.

He keeps asking about you.

I told him you were a little sick.

My little moon. My Mihrimah!

If something happens to me...

...I entrust you your brothers.

Mother!

Promise me, Mihrimah!

You will always be with them.

Promise that you will always protect them.

Promise that you will not leave them to the tyrants!

May God grant you a long life, mother.

But keep a cool head...

...I promise you.

I'll always protect my brothers.

I'll protect them with my life.

-Your Highness. -What happened Afife?

-Did you find anything? -I got some information, Your Highness.

Before you went to the marble palace...

...Nigar Hatun came to you.

Pasha!

Pasha, Your Grace!

What's up Sumbul Agha?

Your Grace, it was Nigar Hatun.

She came before the Sultana went to the marble palace.

Sumbul, what are you talking about?

I did not understand anything. First calm down.

-What's the matter? -Something terrible has happened!

Nobody can find out.

Something bad happened to the Sultana.

That's enough, woman. I have to go.

The Sheikh of Islam can't be kept waiting.

Your robe is ready. Sewn by the tailor Hikmet Effendi.

As you have a high position now.

Why would we waste it?

I am what I was yesterday.

Do not talk like that. You are now Rumeila Military Judge.

All eyes will be on you.

God. Give me patience!

Even if have become a Sheikh of Islam, it's no good.

As long as I can't make a man out of you!

Do no get angry, Ebuussud Effendi.

Ahmet did not mean anything bad.

-He wanted your good. -What good?

He only thinks about the taverns and gambling dens.

If he thought of me for once..

...he'd quit these bad habits.

But no!

I will not see that day. I know, I know.

Thank you for the meal, mother.

Let's not be hard on him, Effendi.

He promised me.

He repented. He won't go to those places anymore.

Repented? Repented? He'll forget that in three days!

He'll keep on doing the same things.

What does this have to do with Nigar?

Don't you understand? She's collaborating with Shah.

It's clear she did something to the Sultana.

We have to find out what it is.

Go back to the harem, don't leave the sultana.

I'll take care of this.

Mihrimah.

Father!

What is going on? What's with you?

Mother is not alright, we don't know what it is.

She got sick, she's not well.

Go to Prince Cihangir. I will stay with the Sultana.

Sumbul Agha told me to stay here.

I'm telling you, take care of the Prince. I will be here until morning.

Hurrem?

What happened to her?

The physician prepared some medicine and she fell asleep.

What's wrong with her?

The physician said it might be from stress or sadness.

Why wasn't I notified at once?

Suleyman.

Hurrem. I'm here.

Suleyman, do not touch me. Suleyman, this disease might be contagious.

May God protect you.

Afife Hatun call Yahya Effendi immediately.

As you command, Your Majesty.

Hurrem.

You were healthy in the morning.

What happened?

That's what I'm wondering. What did they do to me?

Pasha.

I thought you'd come late.

I'll get you something to eat.

Where are you coming from?

I was at the palace.

Sultana Shah wanted to see me.

I know.

They say that you're a loyal servant to Sultana Shah.

She took care of me. So I gave my consent.

As you know, everyone should have a Sultana backing them, right?

You visited Sultana Hurrem too. What happened? Why go to her?

Why the questioning?

Answer me woman. What did you say to the Sultana?

I wanted to give information about a private matter.

What is this matter?

I said it's private. It's not right for you to know.

Will you decide what's right and what's wrong?

If you want to hear it so bad, then listen.

I saw Sultana Mihrimah in the garden.

She was with Bali Bey at the gardens.

I went to the sultana to tell this to her.

What of it?

The Sultana can have a chat with His Majesty's chamberlain.

You're right, Pasha, but...

This conversation can't happen in secret, away from prying eyes.

Bali Bey. I hope that my letter found you in good health.

Excuse me.

Physician. Why didn't the ointment show its effect?

We should wait until the morning, Your Majesty.

Mother, try to remember. Why did this happen?

I do not remember, Mehmet.

Your Majesty.

Yahya Effendi. Come.

Only you can help us with this.

Get well soon, Your Highness.

I'm sorry for what happened to you. May God give you recovery.

Amin Yahya Effendi, Amin.

Yahya Effendi, look.

Look!

She's in great deal of pain.

She had a fever too but the physician managed to drop it.

Look.

Did you determine what the Sultana ate today?

Of course.

She had a meal with the princes.

Praise be to God, everyone is okay.

And did she eat something herself?

Hurrem.

No.

I don't know what happened, I don't remember.

I fainted and lost consciousness.

I understand. Did you rub something onto your skin?

Olive oil? Lavender water?

Do not be anxious, Your Majesty. We will certainly find a way.

Prepare an ointment from nettle, fumeroot, garlic and snake grass.

Where were you, woman?

Your Highness.

What happened? Tell me.

Sultana Hurrem is in the privy chamber.

His Majesty has brought in Yahya Effendi just now.

What did Hurrem say?

Nothing.

She remembers nothing, Your Highness.

That's good. Go before someone sees you.

You'll let me know of everything.

As you command.

Your Highness?

Forgive my curiosity.

What did you do to Sultana Hurrem?

No questions, woman.

Your only job is to do what you're told.

You may leave.

What's wrong with her, Yahya?

I think the physician is right, Your Majesty.

It could have been stress and sadness.

-There's a cure, right? -Of course, prince.

If the Almighty sends us a problem he sends the cure too.

The cure of all illnesses are hidden in nature.

Yahya Effendi. I prepared the ointment you asked for.

Good.

Apply to areas with redness.

And bandage immediately. But don't bandage it too tight.

Don't be upset, Your Highness.

Yahya Effendi will definitely find a way.

Thank you Bali Bey.

I hope it'll turn out the way you said.

Tell me the truth, Yahya Effendi.

What's the real cause?

-Is it poison? -I don't think it's poison.

But we need to think about that chance too.

Do everything in your power, Brother. Find a cure against this disease.

We have to wait, Your Majesty. We'll pray and wait.

Your Highness.

Have a nice evening.

To you as well. Welcome!

I went to see Ayaz Pasha today.

He cut it short, finding excuses.

It seems, he got very upset about his failure during the campaign.

God forgive me.

As everyone is talking about my victory, Praise God.

It seems the Grand Vizier is jealous.

That is so.

Envy is man's greatest enemy.

Especially for our subjects.

We have to be careful.

Just like envy, pride and arrogance can lead to ruin as well.

Can't argue with that.

Didn't Ibrahim Pasha die because of that?

This palace, all his wealth and gold. Despite his endless fortune...

...he's gone.

He's gone despite being friends with...

...His Majesty and married to Sultana Hatice.

But I assure you, Your Highness.

God knows, this will be example to me before anyone else.

It was a difficult day, pasha.

Tomorrow I have to get up early.

You should go to your chambers and rest.

If loving you is a sin...

...if it increases everyday, woe to me!

Oh my moon face, if you rose like the sun...

...I wouldn't be alone in the dark.

Oh pious one, isn't my yellow face a witness to this love?

Isn't it enough that my tears are my witness?

If you look at me only once..

...Muhibbi will have everything he wanted both worlds.

Suleyman.

Hurrem.

Do you feel better?

-Are you in pain? -No.

Thank God.

-Is the nightmare over? -It is, Hurrem.

May God bless Yahya Effendi.

He saved us with his healing hands.

Finally you're here, Hatun. We missed you, I swear.

How is the sultana, Agha?

Rustem Pasha told me everything yesterday.

I was worried.

You embarrassed me again, Nigar.

I thought you'd behave when you become a pasha's wife.

And that you won't go against the Sultana.

What did I do?

You know very well what you did.

Did you think you could fool Sultana Hurrem?

She always suspected who you served!

I'm losing patience! What did I do? Tell me!

Hatice.

Welcome, Your Highness.

Thank you.

You wanted to see me?

Excuse me, mother.

Your Highness.

Sit down, Hatice.

I thought we had an understanding.

In what matter?

Hurrem.

You gave me a promise but you did not keep it.

I do not know what you're talking about.

Nigar told me everything Hatice.

I know what you did to Hurrem.

It has nothing to do with me.

I don't know about that. You'll answer to the Sultana.

Your Highness.

How do you feel, Your Highness? I hope you're okay.

I'm fine, Sumbul. Thanks to Yahya Effendi.

He came to my aid like an angel.

Get well soon, Your Highness. I came here as soon as I heard.

It's a great joy to see you in good health.

I have no doubt, Nigar Hatun.

It's good that you came because I wanted to see you.

That's why I'm here, Your Highness. I told Sumbul too.

I swear, I'm blameless. I learned everything from Rustem Pasha.

You visited me yesterday.

What was the reason? Why did you come?

What? Don't you remember, Your Highness?

Answer my question, Nigar!

I wanted to talk to you about Sultana Mihrimah.

Whatever it is, tell me. I have no secrets from Sumbul.

I saw Mihrimah and Bali Bey in the gardens.

I wanted to let you know about that.

What's the meaning of this? What are you accusing a Sultana with?

Of course not, Your Highness. I thought you'd want to know.

Everyone knows that Sultana Mihrimah is quite...

...fond of Bali Bey ever since she was a kid.

Is this it?

Didn't you say anything else?

No, you wanted me to leave so I did.

I don't know what happened then, Your Highness.

You're the last person I had talked to.

Then I went to the Marble Palace.

Who knows what they did to me there?

I still can't remember what happened.

You will tell me what happened!

Your Highness, I told you what I know.

Shut up!

You're always hanging around Sultana Shah! Do you think I'm unaware?

Your Highness, I can assure you.

Guards!

Take her away.

Give her to Rustem Pasha.

He shall strangle her and throw her corpse in the sea!

Your Highness.

Do what I say! I don't want snakes around me!

Your Highness.

Your Highness, I'm blameless!

It was Sultana Hatice's orders.

What did you say?

She said she knows where my child is.

She threatened me with her.

She promised to give her to me if I did what she told me.

Nigar. What did they do to me?

They put a spell on you.

Your Highness.

Rustem Pasha.

I've just heard it.

Sultana Hurrem recovered, thank God.

Yes, she gave us all a fright. But she's alright now.

Good Morning, Your Highness.

Good Morning Bali Bey. How are you?

I pray for you, Your Highness. I hope you are alright.

Thank you. I should check on my mother.

Bali Bey. I see that you are happy to be in the palace.

You must be too, as you still haven't set off for Diyarbakir.

Let's rest a bit from the campaign, I'll eventually go.

Besides, I have a lot of work in the capital.

That's why I'm here to see His Majesty.

Not now. His Majesty is resting.

He'll go to the throne room later. You can talk to him there.

Go on.

Your Highness.

Tell the astrologer everything you know, Nigar.

Your Highness, I swear I don't know much.

All know it's black magic, I don't know anything else.

Black magic?

That's right, astrologer.

They cast black magic.

Your Highness, are there any other symptoms?

No, those symptoms were temporary. I'm fine now.

What is this magic?

They use it for murder.

It's such a curse...

...it withers you away day by day...

...you can't eat or drink, can't sleep restfully...

You viper!

How could you do this, Nigar?

Your Highness, I swear I didn't know this would happen.

I found out afterwards.

Your Highness, do not be upset. No one can do this kind of magic.

Sumbul. they have done it! Didn't you hear?

I don't think it's possible, Your Highness.

I never saw or heard such a thing.

Especially a Muslim will never dare to do such a thing.

It's a big sin.

The punishment is public execution.

Who is this, Nigar? Who did they hire?

I do not know, Your Highness. I told you everything I knew.

Your Majesty, as I mentioned before...

...there is a problem in the current law.

As you know...

...judge candidates are chosen by the ulema class...

...and they take their first steps to be judges.

When they wait for the post of judge, they receive...

...experience, working for the ulema.

But that there are no exact limits to this matter...

...and judges work against this waiting time, so the order is broken.

When I was the judge of Istanbul, I explained this to the military judges.

But they didn't accept what I said.

So what do you suggest, Ebusuud?

Your Majesty, let's keep a...

...different record for every candidate.

Besides, let's determine how many candidates...

...do the judges want as their students.

And we should set a rotation system...

...for capable candidates every seven years.

What do you say Lutfi Pasha?

Your Majesty, you know what's best but I think the Judge is right.

The law is above all else.

How will judges be just, if they sit there unjustly?

You speak well, Pasha.

Your comments are very reasonable, Judge. Prepare the candidate law in detail.

I'll present it soon as I'm working on it for a long time.

Okay, you can go now.

Your Majesty, there is something else.

Your Grace.

What's up, Celalzade, what does Rustem Pasha want from you?

He wants to learn about the estate of Ibrahim Pasha.

Why is he asking? Wasn't his property confiscated?

Yes pasha, 2 million golds are confiscated.

Rustem Pasha thinks that's not enough.

He calculated that there should be at least 5 million more.

What are you talking about Celalzade?

After all, it amounts to half the annual gold in the treasury.

I can't exactly say anything, pasha.

But Rustem Pasha is right.

A serious amount is missing.

Your Majesty, based on your order...

...the designated plots are ready for Sultana Hurrem's foundation.

If you wish, I will instruct architect Alaaddin Ali to start the project.

Good. Complete the necessary work.

However, personally. I would like to see plans.

Of course, Your Majesty.

Sultana Hurrem and your comments are invaluable.

If that's all then you can leave.

Your Majesty, there is one more thing.

Forgive my curiosity but I see that you quite upset.

Are you still having trouble sleeping?

I'm fine, Hodja Celebi.

-Your Highness! -Get out of my way!

No matter what Hatice...

...you must have told me.

You know how things turn out when you do not consult me.

Why don't you understand?

My biggest fear in life was that I would lose Ibrahim.

From now on, nothing can scare me.

Nobody can stop me!

Hurrem, what's happening? How dare you enter this way?

Whatever you did, you couldn't succeed.

Now you help yourself with magic and fortune-tellers?

Are you so desperate?

Hurrem. What are you talking about?

I do not understand this.

Do not try to deny.

I learned from Nigar what you did to me in the marble palace!

You cast a spell on me! Black magic!

What spell?

How can you accuse my sister of such nasty things!?

With the words of such a woman.

Your Highness, this woman has been working for you for months!

Aren't you happy with her?

Mercan Agha, accompany the Sultana to he carriage.

One more step and I will have your head!

If you have something to say, sit down and talk.

I will not listen to your cries!

Not me, Your Highness, let Nigar sit.

Because like you, she's grieving for Ibrahim Pasha.

Don't you dare!

Do not even say his name!

Your Highness, I pray that God would give you patience.

I advise you to keep faith.

But if you are looking for revenge, confront His Majesty.

Because I didn't order Ibrahim Pasha's execution.

I didn't.

Well done Nigar!

Hurrem believed everything you told her!

She immediately called an astrologer.

You should have seen her face when I told her about the magic.

Curse her.

But Your Highness, I have concerns about Saliha Hatun.

Maybe she really put a spell on her.

She said that a fire would start to burn Hurrem's heart.

Every day this fire will grow.

Until it consumes her.

Hatice, I can not believe it!

How can you believe such a fraud?

Haven't you seen Hurrem?

She had fear in his eyes!

That is the fire the woman talked about!

Fahriye Kalfa.

Where is Prince Cihangir?

With Prince Mehmet.

Sultana Hurrem will be back soon.

She'll want to see the prince when she gets here.

Bring him here.

I was on my way.

Prince.

Customs manager Mahmud Effendi is here.

Prince.

How could you commit such a mistake?

You said Signora Gabriela's ship had missing documents.

Those missing documents were found in your office today!

Prince, I'm very sorry.

There must be a mistake, documents must have mixed up.

Is this your explanation?

It is your responsibility to keep your papers in order.

Because of your mistakes, our merchants have damages.

You put the judges in an embarrassing situation!

-I'll do what's necessary, prince. -Not you.

The ones who are worthy will do it.

I won't let anyone smear Sultan Suleyman's justice.

I relieve you, get out of my sight!

Prince, forgive me. Have mercy.

Hizir Hayreddin Pasha. Come in.

-Prince. -Captain Pasha! I was waiting for you.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

It is not worthy of you but...

...if you accept it, I will be very happy.

Thank you, Pasha, it's one of the most beautiful gifts I've ever received.

Let's sit down.

-Signora Gabriel. -What is happening Antoni?

Who was it?

A messenger from Prince Mustafa.

The prince gave permission to let you unload your cargo from the ship.

May God protect the prince.

He saved us from a great catastrophe. Antoni, get this to the port of Smyrna.

Returning from the trip. I conquered many islands prince.

Same fate awaits the islands near the Italian shore.

I think that His Majesty intends to go on a campaign again.

It is true.

We want to have these islands so the...

...Venetians can't set sail in the Mediterranean.

This is why we had to retreat.

If France completed their northern Italy campaign, as promised...

...Venetians wouldn't dare do this.

I knew it would be so.

I tried my best to convince His Majesty but to no avail.

If we continued the siege, we'd have definitely taken the castle.

But His Majesty didn't think it was appropriate.

Come to think of it, I think he was right.

Even if the castle fell, we could not continue.

The absence of Ibrahim Pasha was felt, right?

That is why His Majesty turned back.

Ayaz Pasha is a good state civil servant, but...

...he's not suited for being a commander.

It is true.

In time of peace, it's easy to be a Pasha.

When there is order and everything works perfectly.

What matters is what you do during war.

If you have talent, it will show.

Thankfully, Lufti Pasha had great victories.

That is so, Taslicali. That is so.

His Majesty personally congratulated him.

If this continues, he will soon replace Ayaz Pasha.

And how is His Majesty?

Thank God he is healthy, Prince.

But he's not like before.

He does not talk much.

It's hard to find out what he is thinking about...

It's as if he donned an invisible armor.

And I think no one will penetrate that armor again.

Come in.

Your Majesty, Sultana Hatice is here.

Let her in.

How do you feel, Hatice?

I am fine, Your Majesty.

I have to be fine for my children's sake.

How are Mustafa and Mahidevran doing?

I'm thankful to both. Both the Prince...

...and Mahidevran welcomed me very well.

Good.

Your Majesty.

Shah Huban moved into my palace, I talked to her.

With your permission, I would like to live in my palace again.

I would like you to stay here. Close to me.

This palace has all my memories.

My history.

Let me finally find peace there.

You can't find peace this way, Hatice.

Memories will only open up your wounds.

Is that why you removed every single thing left from him?

Is that why you did not want him to have a grave?

I won't oppose you, Your Majesty.

I will not rebel.

I will agree to everything you think I deserve.

Gulsum!

Your Highness. Are you okay?

Water! Water!

May you use it well.

Thank you very much for this amazing gift.

Your Majesty, a detailed report arrived from our Prince's mentor.

The charges against Prince Mustafa are unfounded.

During your absence, it's confirmed the Prince had never left Manisa.

In addition, Mentor Cafer Pasha sends you a letter containing all the details.

Good.

May you be happy, Mustafa Pasha. You've brought very good news.

Your Majesty, our Pashas wait for the Venetian envoy to be accepted.

Let them come.

Senior Ludvosi.

How will you explain...

...your betrayal against our understanding and against the Ottoman Empire?

I'm really curious.

Lutfi Pasha, believe me, I am distressed myself...

Send a message to your Doge, Andrei Gritti.

We will tear his palace on his head!

-God help us. -Lutfi Pasha!

Control yourself.

Thank God I can, pasha.

However, if you did not entrust these Venetians with...

...this, we would return from this campaign with victory.

Lutfi Pasha is absolutely right.

Instead of labeling everyone as Ibrahim pasha supporters...

...we should have been more careful with Venetians.

Watch your words, Nasuh Effendi. Don't cross the line.

But it's true, Pasha. And everyone knows it.

Your Highness.

What happened Rustem? You said it was important.

Your Highness!

You're not well, you look tired.

Rustem, I'm fine. I'm fine!

What did you want to say?

As you know, all of Ibrahim's wealth was confiscated.

But there's a lot of gold missing.

Ibrahim Pasha is dead but...

...his spirit is still alive among us.

Everything is about him.

It's a very significant sum, Your Highness.

At least 5 million coins are missing.

His jewelry are gone too. As you know pasha was very fond of precious stones.

And where can these coins and jewelry be at?

I don't think the Pasha hid it, as it was a sudden death.

So it must be somewhere in his palace.

Rustem Pasha, my enemies can't have this money.

That's what I thought, Your Highness. But maybe they already found them.

If so, then we'll expose it. As taking confiscated money...

...from the treasury is a big crime.

Put the pillows faster.

Girls! Hurry up, will you!

Your Highness.

Sumbul Agha, what's going on here?

Your Highness, I ordered a search in your room.

I thought they must have put a spell in your room but there was nothing.

Girls! Make the beds already! Be quick!

Your Highness, I changed your bed sheets...

...God forbid, there might be anything.

Sumbul, forget the magic, it's all rubbish.

Your Highness.

Don't say that, we should take our precautions.

Okay okay.

If you're done, I want to rest. I'm very tired.

As you order, Your Highness.

Girls! Get out! Let's give the Sultana a rest.

The ambassador of Venice Danielo Lodovici.

Sultan Suleyman Khan. Being in your presence is a great honor.

-Doge Andrea Gritti... -Ayaz Pasha!

Ask him if he knows this crown.

I know it, Your Majesty.

It was prepared by the most famous Venetian jewelers Carolina family.

I saw it in the Doge's palace, before they gave it to you.

Ayaz Pasha.

This crown has 50 diamonds...

...47 rubies, 27 emeralds, 49 pearls.

And one huge, turquoise stone.

This is the jewelry aspect of the crown.

But this crown...

They are also a symbol that we are the continuation of big empires including Rome.

And it's a sign of our world conquest.

This crown is a symbol of mercy for our friends...

...and it symbolizes our damning force to our enemies.

We thought Venice has taken refuge in the shadow of this crown.

We are friends of the Sultan.

If they're friends...

...then why did they stand with Charles, breaking our contract.

The Great Sultan should know that we have never betrayed you.

Only a few captains have attacked your ships without our consent.

But they have already suffered a heavy punishment.

The Venetians insulted our friendship and helped Charles.

We warned them many times.

We told them to ally with the king of France. But they did not listen to us.

We did not help France, but we did not ally with Charles V too.

Our disagreement is caused by individual incidents.

The Venetian state is ready to make full reparation for it.

It is too late for that.

For failure to keep promises, you must suffer the consequences.

Ayaz Pasha, it is my will...

The tariff for the Venetian ships is increased.

From now on, the Venetian ships will not be protected in the Mediterranean.

Sultan...

The audience has come to an end. You can leave.

On one hand, Sultan Suleyman. On the other, Charles.

They both want to become the emperor of Rome.

They dream of being Caesar.

While they want to rule the world, we get crushed in the middle.

You're right. We stand between two giants.

Venice is a small country, but no one can defy our fleet.

I hope Barbossa doesn't use his fleet against us.

Barbossa is a great sailor. But what can one man do?

They need countless masters for building...

...galleys and hundreds of experienced captains.

Your Highness.

Madame Signora Gabriel is waiting for an audience.

Let her in.

Signora.

Your Highness.

-Welcome, how are you? -Thank you, Your Highness.

Please.

I came to thank you and Prince Mustafa.

I'm in awe of the Prince's justice. And yours too.

I still can not believe that I managed to solve my problem in such a short time.

Thank you for helping me.

May God protect you and the Prince for that.

Amin.

I told you.

My son will not tolerate injustice.

I am also happy that your problem has been resolved.

Thanks to you, Your Highness.

If you deem it appropriate, I'd like to visit our prince too.

-Prince. -Mother.

Signora Gabriel is very thankful for your help.

-Signora. -Prince.

You saved me from a big misfortune, what you did is invaluable to me.

I am glad for you.

I will not forget this, Prince.

Your interest in my problem is admirable.

I do not know how to thank you.

There is nothing to thank for, Signora. There was a mistake.

Documents were found.

When I understood that you were right, I ordered what's necessary.

The judge reassessed your case and came to a verdict.

Of course this is not a mistake we can tolerate. Many people were dismissed.

If it was not for you, no one would see the mistake. So I'm grateful to you.

Your Highness, I'd be honored to host you and the prince at our mansion someday.

Of course. We'll come, right Prince?

Of course.

Come in.

Prince, Ayse Hatun and Sultana Nergiz Shah are waiting. If you wish--

Let them in.

My prince. With your permission, I should go now.

Your Highness. My prince.

I want you to drop this by Bali Bey's room.

-Just be careful, no one should see you. -As you wish, Your Highness.

Your Majesty.

Rustem Pasha is waiting by the door. He says it's important.

Let him in.

Pasha, Your Grace. His Majesty is waiting for you.

Your Majesty.

Rustem. What's the matter?

-Your Majesty. -Speak.

Your Majesty, I've learned from Celalzade.

That only a small part of Ibrahim Pasha's property was confiscated.

How?

How much was confiscated?

Apart from his real estate, jewelry and private belongings, 2 million duka gold.

About 5 million coins are missing.

We should find the gold.

Especially after the campaign, we need the money.

I know now, you can leave.

Bali Bey, deal with this matter personally.

-I want to know the truth of it. -As you command.

Ever since you came back from campaign, I feel safer even when I sleep.

Ever since I saw you, I realized that the...

...days I spent without you were worthless to me.

My heart is enlightened as my days are brighter.

I'm waiting for your answer, hoping you're feeling the same.

What's up?

-What are you doing here? -I was waiting for you.

For a long time, there is a senseless feud between us.

The time has come to end it.

I hope that you agree with me.

I don't have feuds with anyone, Pasha.

And I do not want any.

Good, very good...

So we agree.

I liked your mansion very much. You have a sense of taste.

Thank you but it can not match your beautiful palace.

Do you stay here mostly?

No, I stay on Chios Island.

Is your son there now?

Yes. I miss him so much. He's very fond of me.

Perhaps you know that this mansion belongs to merchant Umur Bey from Manisa.

I know Umur Bey.

He is a respected merchant.

I'm renting this house from him.

We have been trading together for some time.

The priest's stew. You must have some.

She's from Genoa.

-Who? -The woman I saw with the Prince.

Hmm, yeah.

She is a Genoese merchant.

Beautiful woman.

They're in her mansion, right?

Yes, they're having dinner.

Why are you asking?

You can not interfere with the Prince.

Why do you want to know about that woman?

Nothing.

I'm just a bit curious, nothing more.

-Prince, I've heard a lot about you. -Really?

-What do they say? -They say good things.

Everyone likes you and fear you.

It means I'm on the right path. Every prince should have both.

When are you going home to Chios?

Now my ship is being unloaded. Then it will be loaded with raisins and figs.

I'll be back home with the ship.

I'd want to welcome you there, prince.

I can only enter a non-Ottoman territory to conquer it.

Why didn't your son come here?

I only came for a few days, but I got stuck here when my ship was detained.

Prince. I am grateful to you.

Prince, shall we go? I need to rest.

Of course. Let's go.

Thank you for this great dinner, Signora.

It is a great honor for me. Not everyone can host you.

I hope to see you before you leave.

Gladly, Your Highness.

Prince, I hope that you are also pleased.

Of course. Good night.

Mother.

What did you do to me?

Hurrem? What's happening? What are you doing?

What is this?

This darkness...

This shadow...

Is this how you'll kill me?

I'm not afraid! I'm not afraid of anyone or anything!

-Your Highness. -Do not touch me!

Your Highness, be calm. Take her to her room.

So you were here...

I will not let them get away with it.

They can't destroy me. They will fail.

Prepare the Sultana some hot milk.

Afife Hatun.

Who is the woman I saw in Hatice's room?

Do you mean Saliha Hatun?

A Kalfa, serving Sultana Hatice.

She served him in Manisa.

Your Highness.

Why isn't my dress still ready?

It will arrive soon.

Your Highness, I think this is for you.

Who sent this?

I do not know, Your Highness. It was on your pillow.

You can leave.

My precious Sultana!

I want you to know that I am faithful to you and your family.

Do not expect anything more than that.

As a servant of the Ottoman Empire, I can't have feelings for you.

Please understand me and I want your forgiveness.

Malkocoglu Bali Bey.

You should have seen Hurrem.

She seemed crazy.

She tries to hide her condition but to no avail.

We spread the news, everyone knows about it in the harem.

Everyone's talking about it already.

The end of Hurrem is near.

Hatice.

You finally smile.

I hope you'll be right but we have to be cautious.

This is Hurrem, never underestimate her.

This is nothing.

I will make her regret the day she was born.

-Your Highness. -What's up, Mercan Agha?

The guard commander arrived, along with tens of other guards.

There will be a search in the palace by His Majesty's orders.

-Sultana Hurrem is ill. -Really?

Yeah, I just heard it.

May God protect her, what's wrong with her?

What is this search for? Why the need?

Your Highness, Ibrahim Pasha's wealth was not fully confiscated.

They suspect that gold is hidden in this palace.

Go tell them to get out of here!

I will never let them come in here. I won't allow it!

Your Highness, they have His Majesty's orders with them.

We have to let them.

Why are you silent? Say something!

Calm down. Hatice. Let them search. We'll go upstairs.

No! Enough already!

Have a nice morning, Your Highness.

To you as well. Is His Majesty in his room?

Yes. Did something bad happen?

You look very upset.

None of your concern!

Your Highness.

Get well soon.

Your Highness. Let me inform His Majesty.

Sumbul, I told you no, don't insist.

I don't want His Majesty to see me like this.

All I need is a little rest.

Don't say that, Your Highness.

His Majesty will be furious for not telling him.

If nobody says anything, how will he find out?

Is it--

So soon?

Your Highness, the harem's in upheaval after last night.

Everyone's talking about you. I don't know what to do.

Your Highness, where to?

Gulsum.

Your Highness, you can't get up. You must rest!

Get out you! Get out!

Gulsum, prepare my clothes.

Mother will not let anyone get close.

Even me. She behaves strangely.

The last time I saw her, she was alright. How did this happen?

I do not know. I went to her in the morning, but she did not let me.

I called the physician. She said she was fine.

So do not worry, she must be fine.

I'll take care of her.

Come in.

Your Majesty, Sultana Hatice is here.

Let her in.

Your Majesty, if you will, I want to talk to you alone.

Make way!

Haseki Sultana Hurrem, Her Highness!

Your Highness! Your Highness! Call the physician!

In the morning, I visited Shah Huban.

But guards have showed up, to search the palace. They said you gave the order.

It's true, Hatice. That's what I wanted.

They confiscated his properties already.

It turned out that a certain amount is missing.

According to the rules, all must be confiscated.

You'll get your share according to law, too.

The law...

Really?

I wonder why you didn't obey the law when you executed him.

Is your sense of justice killing a man in his sleep, unaware?

Is it just to invite a man for dinner, then kill him in his sleep?

It is justice to deprive him of a grave, and let the wild beasts tear him apart?

Get out of Hatice!

You are ruler of the whole world.

You promised Ibrahim that you would protect him even from yourself.

Bu you have not kept your word!

This won't make you just, only cruel!

Get out Hatice, don't let me see you ever again!

Your Highness.

Thank God, Your Highness.

Leave me, let me go!

I'm fine!

Your Highness?

What did you do to me?

What did you do to me?

This is nothing.

You'll burn in hellfire!

Speak!

Speak!
