ALPARSLAN THE GREAT SELJUKS

EPISODE 30

EPISODE 30

Silence!

Let's what Alparslan Bey has to say to us...

after what they did. I'm honestly curious.

Did you think you would get away with what you did?

Now everyone will hear the truth.

Everyone knows the truth already, Alparslan Bey.

You shouldn't have bothered coming all the way here.

But go ahead.

They told you we killed the traders and planned this treacherous scheme.

That's why you're all angry. I know.

I also know that you have lost trust in me.

You won't hear about this issue from me...

but from trader Wang whom they tried to kill.

What you will hear now...

will reveal the culprit and show you're on the wrong person's side.

Speak.

Tell them everything you heard.

Let them know who killed the other traders...

and who gave the order.

The attack...

was carried out on Alparslan Bey's orders.

They threatened me to lie.

Alparslan Bey is to blame.

You lying traitor!

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Should we thank you for letting us hear the truth we already know, Alparslan Bey?

But if you don't want to face the rightful anger if this crowd now...

I advise you to leave this place immediately!

Trader Wang...

do you want to live?

And would you like to live as a very rich trader?

I will destroy this treacherous scheme you plotted...

over your head sooner or later, Governor Grigor.

Whatever we did to draw the trade towards Vaspurakan...

it's all gone to waste due to this slander.

Nothing has gone to waste. Hold on a moment.

The bed of water doesn't change so easily.

Patience.

It's not only about trade...

now it's about the reputation of the Great Seljuks.

Trader Wang said one thing in Vaspurakan...

and something else in the infidel lands.

What made him do that, my Bey?

Wang's words and his testimony must've been bought, Batur Bey.

It seems Grigor used him to put us in a difficult situation in front of other traders.

We need to take that traitor Wang out of there at the right time, brother.

Let's take him, my Bey.

We know how to make him tell the truth in front of everyone.

Honourable Governor, I did what you asked of me.

Now it's your turn to keep your promise.

Of course.

You're quite right, trader Wang.

Soldier!

Take his body away without anyone seeing.

If anyone asks, say he went back to China.

VASPURAKAN

You bothered yourself in vain by bringing my clothes here, father.

I didn't leave these clothes in Bukhara...

I left my home, my land, my people, my memories...

and my sister.

I've missed Gülce so much, father.

I've missed Bukhara a lot.

Seferiye...

Gülce will surely come to you when she recovers.

But you should forget about going back to Bukhara.

Come to your senses.

Here is your new home now.

Soon, you will be the Hatun of a Prince.

I told you father...

I will never marry Alparslan.

I will die of shame and anger as a Kara-Khanid.

Let's run from here, father.

What are you saying, Seferiye?

I thought about it, we can escape with the excuse of wedding preparations.

This time we can gather our army and make them regret it with a better plan, father.

What you just said is impossible.

After our last battle with the Seljuks...

do we have any power left to gather an army?

If we disobey the decree of the Sultans...

they won't let us stay anywhere.

Get rid of these plans to escape, Seferiye.

If you won't come...

then I'll go on my own.

Nobody can blame you.

Because you did all that was your responsibility.

You can tell them you didn't know of my plan to escape.

They can't kill you.

But if I continue to stay here...

and marry that man...

I will die.

If the lie, that a Seljuk Prince killed a trader in his own lands, is heard...

And besides him, four other traders from four different countries.

If you don't clear your name...

this lie will be heard from Hotan to Constantinople...

and spoken of everywhere, son.

You're right, Çağrı Bey.

This is such an issue...

that its echo will be louder than itself.

But there must be a way to redirect this echo.

And I have no doubt Alparslan Bey will find that way.

Just as we were about to weaken their trade and strengthen ours...

what has happened is not good at all.

As if the bad news we got wasn't enough, now we have to deal with this slander.

What is that? What bad news?

The Yabgu tribe.

What have they done now

Göktaş took a tribe of 250 tents with him...

and travelled towards Anatolia from the Gence region.

What was their issue?

What else would it be? There are no crops or pastures...

they've obviously gone to loot again.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Why did Prince Alparslan kill the traders?

Who will we sell these goods to now?

- You said we would profit. - Will we be accountable for it?

You aren't accountable for this.

But you aren't the ones to take account either!

You don't hear yourselves!

We hear everything, Yınal Bey.

These ears have that Vaspurakan traders are forbidden to trade in Surmari Market.

But what was promised to us?

You have ruined all of us. We couldn't sell our goods.

We see that Alparslan Bey can't be trusted.

Send a message with someone Göktaş will listen to, father.

Tell them not to move from their place and wait for news from me.

You know the issue between us and our cousins, the Yabgu tribe, Alparslan.

Whatever we say, they do the opposite

Especially Göktaş...

But, Allah knows why...

they consider Yınal Bey as one of them.

My Bey, you call for me.

You must've heard what happened, Razen.

I can't fathom why trader Wang would've dirtied himself with such a slander, my Bey.

I am really embarrassed.

Some people not only sell their goods...

but their honour too.

May Allah protect us.

We were played by the infidels.

Be patient, father.

The game isn't over yet.

How are you? Are you better?

Praise be to Allah, I am much better.

Good.

Now the duty I will assign you...

is very crucial in clearing our name...

and avenging the blood of your friends, remember this.

Go back to Surmari quickly. Search every place properly.

Find where that traitor Wang, who slandered us in public, is and what he's doing.

Since we gave you your rights and established justice...

you started to get loud.

How quickly you forgot how you whined under Kekavmenos' oppression!

We didn't forget, you forgot your promise.

Is this your justice?

Alparslan killed those traders with weapons...

do you want to kill us too with hunger?

Things will get out of hand, Avar.

Right, let me go and inform them.

I'm telling you, don't test my patience!

Aren't you the Governor of Azerbaijan, Yınal Bey?

Do what you have to, and solve all issues preventing our trade.

They wont bother if it's not them who have lost something.

Yınal Bey's and Prince Alparslan's caravans are still running.

Then get moving instead of barking.

We'll see who barks and who moves if this continues.

Dont you know who stands before you, shameless?

Lower your sword, Yınal Bey!

Lower your sword.

They will talk bad about their Beys and Princes...

and we won't cut those tongues, is that so, Alparslan Bey?

If you don't teach the impudent a lesson, where is the Bey and where are the people?

Those who cross the limits...

we'll show them where their tongues belong, surely.

They're worried about their goods, what you do doesn't solve it, it makes it worse.

Just calm down.

Firstly, you should know, we did not kill the traders.

This slander was put on us to make us experience exactly what is happening now.

Now calm down, and don't worry.

How can we not worry?

We trusted you, we bought more goods thinking they would get sold.

But we still have all our goods.

Whatever goods you have...

prepare it by this evening.

I will buy it all.

It seems he has something in mind.

Has he never, my Bey?

- All of it? - All of it.

We will keep the promise we gave when we conquered Vaspurakan.

There will surely be difficult days.

If our duty is to bear those difficulties on your behalf...

your duty is to be patient and remain loyal.

Very soon we will clear our name of this slander...

and we will open doors of prosperity to Vaspurakan's traders.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

These traders you see aren't only involved in trade, Alexander.

They also tell of what they have experienced...

seen and heard while travelling the world.

Now they will tell the whole world...

of the plots Alparslan made and how he killed...

those four traders mercilessly...

just to draw trade towards his market.

Alparslan who dared to sneak into Surmari Market using the Holy Cross...

will be much more daring if he seizes another opportunity.

We should make the first move before he attacks us again.

The news of the death of those four traders...

will drag the Seljuks into such an endless loneliness in trade...

that Alparslan and the Seljuks...

will have much more pressing matters than us to worry about.

The disrespect shown towards our Holy Cross, the cross...

of Jesus Christ, will certainly be dealt with.

But this is enough for them for now.

It isn't.

If you do ot kill the lion you wound, you become the prey.

Before Alparslan raises his sword against us again...

we should pluck out his claws.

What do you have in mind, Captain?

I thought maybe trader Wang can do us one last favour.

You told the traders to gather all their goods by evening, son.

What will you do with all that?

I will send it to the Yabgus.

With who?

- Yınal Bey. - Wait, son. I'll talk to him.

Stop strutting, İbrahim.

Your son Alparslan is the one strutting, brother.

Don't start on me.

Go ahead, do you have something to say?

Göktaş of the Yabgu Beys...

What about Göktaş?

We know he likes you and listens to you.

A caravan full of goods will set off to be delivered to him.

If you lead it...

As if what Alparslan did in front of his subjects just a while ago wasn't enough...

are you now entrusting a caravan to me, brother?

Send whatever you will to whoever you want with whoever you want.

I can't go.

Where are you going?

Are you planning an escape for Seferiye?

No, my Bey, I'm just...

Do you think I don't see that you fill Seferiye's mind...

to make her get this marriage out of her mind?

This will not only be her end, it would be yours too.

My Bey, let go, you're hurting me.

I have my eyes on you, watch your step.

I will hold you responsible for every act of madness of hers.

You will tell me of Seferiye makes a wrong move, do you understand?

Do you understand?

How dare you come in my way?

Let's talk a little, Yınal Bey.

I draw my sword against my enemy, you stand in my way.

I trade, you block my way.

While I warn the disrespectful people...

you stand behind the tactless and devalue my words.

What do you want from me, Alparslan?

Of the things you mentioned, which of them is right that I should stand with you...

rather than against you?

What do you do except for disobeying the Sultan,

causing trouble for the state and offending the people?

Damn, my lion of a nephew!

While you were falling in love in the tribe, your uncle...

was riding his horse taking lives and losing lives.

Now Prince Alparslan faces me...

and tells me what is right and wrong.

Damn you!

No one is saying anything about what you do for your Beylik and your State.

But know this...

the one doing wrong, be it my uncle or even...

my brother or father, I will stand against them.

While I, for your sake, stood in the way of the people who were angry at you...

you stand against your uncle who covered your back.

You've fallen into the well of pride, my nephew.

You don't see what you do yourself and look for faults in the people around you.

When they said Alparslan Bey killed the traders, I couldn't believe it.

But now I see very clearly.

I have no doubt you killed those innocent lives.

Listen to yourself, Yınal Bey!

When did we ever draw our swords on the innocent?

Alparslan who does not respect his uncle, and waits for every chance...

to catch him out, will that Alparslan pity a few traders?

To make your rule in Vaspurakan strong, and weaken Surmari...

in its trade, you would do even that.

The stain that you have put on your name and on the name of the state...

think about how you'll clear it, my nephew.

You clench your fist towards me very often, Alparslan.

This fist doesn't clench against you, rather to your blindness that never ends.

I didn't raise my sword against an innocent life and I never will.

You know this very well, uncle!

Despite everything, you stood firm against those...

greedy traders, but what did Alparslan come and do?

Tell me, Yınal Bey.

What he did wasn't enough and now to get his job done...

he sends Çağrı Bey to you, is it?

That's right.

It would have been good if I went, but when my brother came, I was still angry.

So you're not angry now, Yınal Bey?

Yınal Bey, come to your senses...

open your eyes and see what they're doing to you.

The great Governor of Azerbaijan, İbrahim Yınal...

will take orders from Prince Alparslan, is that so?

No.

Alparslan is the last person you should trust.

Just so you know.

Even if he says he didn't do it, or it was a slander...

it is certain he killed the traders.

He wouldn't and he didn't.

He would!

He would.

Alparslan who blocked your way and ruined your trade...

would do anything for his personal gain.

Will you just stand like that, Yınal Bey?

What should I do?

Go and see Governor Grigor yourself tomorrow.

You don't need Alparslan's allegiance, Yınal Bey.

On the contrary, whether he likes it or not, he has to pledge allegiance to you.

Tell the Governor you have full authority in this region...

and that he should see you for deals and for trade.

It's isn't Alparslan Bey's right to rule these lands, it's yours, Yınal Bey.

Just like all Seljuk lands.

It's your right.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Let me get to Bukhara, I will take my father with me...

and you too, don't worry.

You shouldn't set off at night, Seferiye.

- Have you lost your mind? - What's left till the morning?

What's wrong, Zeren?

I thought you wanted more than me that I be free of this marriage and the Seljuks?

Surely I do.

But your father...

Arslan Yusuf Bey threatened me.

He will not suspect you of helping me.

When you sleep, tell him I ran away, when you wake up, tell him I wasn't in my room.

Take this, it's a sleeping herb.

Tell him I secretly put it in your Ayran.

Take care.

We will reunite soon. I promise.

What is the situation, Razen? Is there any news?

Like you said, I looked for Wang everywhere.

But no trace, no news, he's nowhere to be found.

No one saw him leave either.

Just as I guessed.

Grigor made Wang say what he wanted him to say then got rid of him.

What will happen now?

Who will we ask to tell the truth besides him, brother?

We will make Wang tell the truth.

Since Wang didnt talk while alive, his dead body will talk.

Razen, there is one more very important mission I will ask from you.

First you'll go and find Wang's dead body.

Then you will do as I tell you.

Clearing our name depends on the succes of this plan.

Hurry.

Hurry up, you damned men. Hurry!

- You. - Yes, sir.

Guard the door.

No one is there, sir.

Okay, carry him outside.

- You stay here and clean this. - As you command.

Hurry, load it.

Hurry.

- Are you ready? - Yes, captain, but...

But what, Batius?

Entering Seljuk lands with this body...

without Governor Grigor's knowledge too.

I'm not sure if this right, captain.

Batius, calm down.

We will bury him without anyone knowing. Come on.

As you command.

I am tired of talking to you in secret, Gevher Hatun.

If you permit, I'd like to tell Çağrı Bey of my intentions.

As you wish, Erbaskan Bey.

I've been waiting for the tiredness of war to ease...

and mourn the loved ones we lost.

But I would be lying if I said I am patient.

Not more than me, Gevher Hatun.

We can't let you. You cannot enter.

What's happening there?

Who gave this order? Who prohibited me from entering the stable?

Arslan Yusuf Bey.

My father?

I am Alparslan Bey's future wife.

You don't take orders from my father, you take them from me.

- Now move out of my way. - We cannot let you.

Don't you hear me? I said move out of my way.

She's giving orders. Let me teach her a lesson.

- Wait. - What's happening here?

Arslan Yusuf Bey has prohibited Seferiye Hatun from entering the stable, my Bey.

He said to stop her if she comes.

But Seferiye Hatun insists.

Why did your father prohibit you from entering the stable?

How would I know?

He told me not to take the horse and wander around.

He is worried that something might happen to me again.

But that must be his solution since I haven't given up.

The morning is understandable, but in the darkness of the night...

where will you wander with your horse, Seferiye Hatun?

Not only your father, but others would be worried too.

I will go to the hill near the place I stabbed you to watch the sunrise.

I like it a lot.

When day breaks, I feel like all burdens leave my body.

I also had a place to watch from in Bukhara.

Besides my horse, like myself, isn't from here.

And I'm sure, like me, she misses Bukhara...

and feels lonely.

We both need consolation.

Now tell your Alps to let me pass.

I would but I do not want you to go against your father's word.

If Arslan Yusuf gave this order, he's the only one who can reverse it.

- Alparslan Bey, I... - Now go to your room and rest.

It's late, Seferiye Hatun.

Solve your issue with your father in the morning.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

That's enough. Bring it.

Hurry up, damned men, we're in Seljuk lands, come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Enough, bring the sacks.

Who are you? I won't ask again.

We are Roman soldiers.

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Holy Roman Empire!

Long live... Long live...

Come with me.

I know very well how to make them speak.

This torture will only end if we give them the answer they want.

You must be insane.

If we lie and tell them we are Seljuk spies, they'll kill us immediately.

Don't you see, death is the only salvation?

The only salvation.

VASPURAKAN

I will deliver the trust and your greetings...

as you said, Alparslan Bey.

May Allah help you, Batur Bey.

Eyvallah.

Alparslan Bey, from Baghdad, from our Sultan Tuğrul.

Is it important, my Bey?

Our Sultan has informed he will not attend the wedding.

And he sends purebred horses as gift.

He said the horses will arrive shortly after I receive the letter.

Then we have to receive them, my Bey.

Take them with the others...

to the private pastures in Güzelsu.

Since our Sultan sent such...

valuable horses, then all the people should welcome them...

in a way that befits our Sultan.

We should start making preparations for the wedding...

of Alparslan Bey and my daughter Seferiye now.

It should be a ceremony befitting our honour...

and yours, isn't that right, Çağrı Bey?

When the time comes, the necessary will be done.

It's time, Çağrı Bey, what are we waiting for?

Am I wrong, Selcen Hatun?

I assume you will hamdle all the preparations.

Sure, whatever I can do...

The whole world will talk about the wedding that will turn...

the Kara-Khanids and the Seljuks into relatives.

There won't be a wedding, Arslan Yusuf.

What are you saying, Alparslan Bey?

We will have the food after the marriage. That's all.

What you said would be insulting me and my daughter.

- Seferiye... - Don't worry, Zeren.

Nobody will be able to blame you or my father.

How will you escape, Seferiye?

Even if you get out, how far can you walk?

Çağrı Bey, Selcen Hatun...

Prince Alparslan Bey is young...

it seems he doesn't know the morals.

Arslan Yusuf, in which of the Turks' customs...

does a girl get married without her consent?

If I was in your position, I would rather...

give my life than give my daughter after being defeated.

What do you want to celebrate with such splendour and glory?

I will feed the horse, Alparslan Bey.

Good, give him a good walk so he stretches his legs.

As you command, my Bey.

SURMARI TRADING MARKET

Good day.

- What's in the cart? - Wheat for bread.

Come with me.

Remove the cover.

My wheat is first class.

It isn't enough to only take traders from Alparslan.

When the day comes, we will take back Vaspurakan which is basically ours.

Another one has left Alparslan. How nice!

So you finally learned who your true friends are...

is that right?

Until I heard what Wang said...

I couldn't see what a devil Alparslan was.

Forgive me, Honourable Governor.

It's Razen, isn't it?

Yes.

Look trader Razen...

everyone makes mistakes.

But what matters is you learn from those mistakes.

Welcome back.

If you want to benefit people...

and want justice to be served...

tell of what Alparslan did everywhere you go.

Everyone should know what kind of devil, the Seljuk Prince...

Alparslan, who got famous for his bravery, really is

Isn't that right?

Long love Wang!

We owe him gratitude for showing us the truth.

He's right. If it wasn't for Wang, Alparslan could've fooled us too.

Wang, where is he?

Did nobody see him?

For the bravery he showed, on behalf of all of you...

I conveyed thanks to Wang myself.

I wanted him to be here too, but...

he left the market in the early hours of the morning.

He said he would go to China. He must be on his way now.

How?

Wang going back to China without telling anyone...

Trader Razen...

you don't think Captain Alexander is an untrustworthy man, do you?

If he said he left, he must've.

Forgive me, Honourable Governor, but it's stil very strange.

As far as I can remember, he didn't buy goods from anyone either.

He couldn't have gone back to China empty-handed.

As I said, he left the market in the early hours of the morning.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Captain! Sir!

Finally.

- That's Wang's horse. - Yes, that's Wang's horse.

Soldier!

What is the meaning of this?

We found his horse wandering in the forest...

without a rider near the Seljuk lands, my lord.

This was there too.

That's Wang's.

Damn it. Trader Wang must've been attacked on the way.

Who would attack Wang and why?

It can't be anyone else, Alparslan did it because he exposed him.

For revenge.

Let's pray trader Wang is still alive.

Batius, we're leaving. Prepare a unit now.

As you command, sir.

If Alparslan is the one behind this...

I assure you the Seljuks will pay a heavy price.

Find him, Captain.

Find him before Alparslan harms him.

Don't you worry.

What is Wang's horse doing outside, Alexander? What is going on?

Watch and see what's going on, father.

Look at me.

I want to know what you're up to.

I'm coming with you.

Prepare my horse.

Honourable Governor, Yınal Bey is here.

Yınal Bey?

He wants to see you. He said it's important.

Tell Yınal Bey I will see him shortly.

I should leave without wasting time, father.

Don't you get yourself into trouble, Alexander.

Don't worry, father.

If anyone's getting into trouble today, it's not me.

Serdar Alp.

You're here too?

I was feeling a bit burdened, I wanted to take a walk.

Don't get me talking, Seferiye Hatun.

I'm on duty, this horse is entrusted to me.

Okay, I won't disturb you. Continue your duty.

What happened? Why are you afraid?

I heard a sound behind those bushes.

But I'm afraid to go and look.

I wish my Alps were with me.

What am I here for? I am Alparslan Bey's Alp.

I'll go and look, don't be afraid, Hatun.

You must've misheard. There is no one here.

My Bey, there's news from Afşin Bey.

Firstly, greetings.

As you ordered, I met Çavlı Bey and Savtegin Bey...

in their places secretly and told them your orders.

Now, as you told me, I took my position with the unruly...

in a place near to the Yabgus under Kızıl Bey's command.

And again, as you ordered, everyone...

thinks we are a group of rebels against the Seljuks.

I wait for your orders to raid infidel provinces by hit and run.

Where is the one who brought the letter?

- Resting his horse. - Good. It should rest well.

Let him stay here a while.

We should send my reply with another messenger.

Let the same messenger not be seen coming and going.

You're right.

You did right sending Afşin to the West, my Bey.

I was worried if I was acting too early in this issue, but...

when you said it was the right time...

Not at all.

With Allah's will, Afşin Bey, Savtegin Bey...

and Çavlı Bey will attack...

the cities that support Ani like a wall one by one...

and weaken them from all directions.

When the time comes and we push from this side, Ani...

having no support, will fall at your feet, In Sha Allah.

This is how we'll break the lock of Anatolia.

Didn't you say after the lock is broken, the gates would be next, Atabey?

Whatever you said, we are doing just that.

Not at all.

Alparslan Bey!

Alparslan Bey!

Alparslan Bey.

Hope it's well.

Seferiye Hatun...

What about Seferiye Hatun, Serdar?

She deceived me.

She stole the horse.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Yınal Bey, to what do we owe this surprise visit?

Now I am Azerbaijan's General Governor and I am the protector...

of all surrounding Seljuk cities including Vaspurakan.

When you have an issue on these lands concerning...

our state, you will come to me before you go to Prince Alparslan.

So that the relationship between our states...

is managed with politics.

I very much want that too.

But Alparslan's impulsive moves, continue to...

damage our political and commercial relationship.

This is the biggest proof that he caused the death of the traders.

I don't think it possible that Alparslan Bey...

caused the death of those traders.

But if he has a hand in this issue, as the state's protector...

I will personally carry out the punishment given on behalf of our state.

From now on, for any deals or problems you have with Vaspurakan...

you will address me, Governor.

So your father prohibited you from entering the stables for this reason.

My father has no knowledge of my escape. Don't try to blame him.

And don't try to stop me.

I will die but I will not go back there.

I told you to let me go.

I can't breathe there, understand me.

I don't belong to these lands.

You don't belong to these lands but that horse does.

It belongs in Vaspurakan.

If you want to go so much, go on foot.

I will surely find a way to go.

No one will sell a horse to you on my lands.

I will buy it from the Byzantines then.

Do you think my enemy will give a horse to my wife-to-be?

Don't you try to go there.

I am not your wife and I won't be.

Your issues don't concern me.

Since you are enemies with the Kara-Khanids as you are with the Byzantines...

I am also against you, isn't it?

I found the horse here, sir.

- What's that? - He found a bag.

That's Wang's.

That cruel Alparslan must pay for this.

He killed Wang.

Blood.

Blood?

The traces go that way.

Let's carry on.

Seljuk soldiers are coming.

Where are you going? This is a Seljuk land.

Calm down.

Everyone calm down.

If you want to live, go back to where you came from right now.

Unfortunately, that's not possible, soldier.

We suspect that one of our traders was killed.

The traces brought us all the way here.

Now...

either you move out of my way...

or call your master...

Alparslan Bey.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Where are you going, Turkmen girl?

Did you lose your way? These are Byzantine lands.

I will buy a horse.

Why should we sell horses to you while you don't sell them to us?

Take this. It's very valuable.

Give me your horse.

My horse is not for sale.

Then move out of my way.

I will find someone who will sell their horse.

You're not going anywhere.

Five men against one woman, huh?

They are too less for one Turk Hatun.

Why did you come after me?

Because I figured this would happen.

Whatever, I told you I'd find a horse.

You're not going anywhere wounded like that.

Put your arm out.

Come on, to the castle.

I won't go back to that castle.

I know I won't be able to leave again.

You can't go to Bukhara like this.

You will return to the castle with me. Come on.

Where are you going, Arslan Yusuf?

I'm talking to you, where are you going?

I'm going to find my daughter, Seferiye.

Let me go.

How do we know you won't run away like your daughter?

She is running from the wedding arranged...

by the Sultan, and you are running from your death!

I'm not running anywhere, Çağrı Bey.

I fear something might happen to my daughter.

Let me go find her and bring her back.

Çağrı Bey is right, he didn't even say much.

This is a plot you organised with your daughter.

Despite all your daughter did, she saw that Alparslan Bey...

will not deviate from the Sultan's decree.

Now you're trying to escape with this plan.

- Öke Hatun! - Enough now!

Until Seferiye Hatun is found and the truth is revealed...

you will stay on your room and won't take a step outside!

Alps!

Are you okay?

No I'm not.

And you're asking on top as if you're mocking me.

I'm going back now, are you happy?

No I'm not.

Alparslan?

What is this state?

Nothing, what's wrong? What's the worry?

We got news. Captain Alexander along with his unit...

entered our lands near the Byzantine Border.

I don't know where does this girl gets this from.

She doesn't care about her own life or mine.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

First she stabs Alparslan and now she escapes.

Alparslan Bey will find her and bring her back.

And she will find another way.

Your daughter will do anything for this wedding not to happen.

Give up, Arslan Yusuf. Give up!

This wedding will happen, no matter what anyone says!

If you are smart...

give up trying to make your daughter marry Alparslan...

and fall at their feet.

Beg.

Beg him, so he can spare you and send you into exile.

You don't feel bad being in captivity as it is.

You think I don't know that you're waiting to take my life, Öke Hatun?

You will stab me the day I get exiled.

Alparslan Bey will bring Seferiye and the wedding will happen.

And I will stay here...

and ruin all the plans you've made with Yınal Bey.

It's no use waiting, captain. Is Alparslan brave enough to face us?

The traces are clear, what more do we have to wait for?

Honestly, I'm quite tired of waiting too.

The lands you dirty with your feet are Seljuk lands.

Lower your swords.

I said put them down, don't you hear?

The traders were right...

if Alparslan had the guts, he wouldn't send you, he'd come himself.

Alparslan didn't send me.

I came, you spoiled son of a Governor.

I won't let anyone have the pleasure of kicking you out of our lands.

Surrender Trader Wang to us dead or alive. Now.

It seems your slander didn't satisfy you.

Even though we had a score to settle with that poor guy...

we wouldn't stoop so low to kill him in secret.

Save your breath.

No one expects you to confess that you killed trader Wang.

Don't test my patience, Captain!

We did not kill the traders or trader Wang.

But if you do not leave our lands, I will kill you.

We don't believe you, Süleyman Bey. Move and let us pass.

If you're not to blame, why do you stand so stubbornly in our way?

He's right.

Let them pass.

Let's go on.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

I don't trust Arslan Yusuf either...

but Öke Hatun is fanning the flames.

When Seferiye Hatun comes back, don't start on her.

This marriage will happen one way or the other.

As long as we don't cause the unpleasantness.

What you say is right, my Bey...

but what unpleasantness did we cause them?

We welcomed them and took them into our home.

We accepted her as our bride.

But there isn't a thing the Hatun hasn't done to Alparslan and us.

Mother is right, father.

While we accepted her as our family and embraced her...

there is nothing disrespectful she hasn't done.

She's wounded.

Seferiye Hatun, let's call the doctors. Your arm...

Don't worry, I'm fine.

First let's look and see if your wound is deep.

It's just a small scratch, I said I'm fine.

Son, tell us, what happened?

She came across infidels on the way.

Fortunately, her sword is as sharp as her obstinacy, I didn't have to do much.

Inform the Alps, she shouldn't leave her room until I'm back.

- Did Süleyman find you, son? - He did, father. He did.

He went ahead to deal with Alexander.

Let's also set off quickly.

- May Allah open your path, son. - Aameen.

This Seferiye Hatun who knows no limits...

who knows how many more problems she'll cause for my brother?

I wish I could kill him and be done with this torture, Gökalp.

Patience, my Bey. Whatever they've planned will catch up with them.

These are traces of dragging.

They go that way. Let's go.

This has just been dug.

The soil is fresh. It was just dug

Did you bury Wang here?

We didn't bury Wang, but I will bury you.

This has gone on too long now.

This baseborn devil is fooling you.

Why do you believe him?

Why should we believe you?

What's the reason for your worry and anger, Süleyman Bey?

Why else, Batius? His lie will be exposed soon, that's why.

Since you claim to be innocent...

then let us dig.

Since our word will not prove our innocence...

but a patch of soil will...

so be it.

Dig it!

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

May their hands break.

But thankfully your wound isn't deep.

You tried to escape, but you couldn't even do that.

If you hadn't come back, we'd have been rid of you.

If you had treated us the same way, I would've been more than a sister.

But now we are enemies, Seferiye Hatun!

I have only ine sister, and she is in Bukhara.

I don't need you to be my sister, now get out!

Seferiye Sultan is wounded, can't you see?

She told you to get out.

Who do you think you're talking to? Know your place!

I consider the your slap on Zeren against me.

That slap was meant for you anyway.

What is going on here?

Seferiye, what are you doing, my daughter?

Who does this Hatun think she is?

I will definitely make her pay for this slap.

Seferiye, your wound is bleeding.

My daughter...

what happened? Who did this?

Inform the doctor immediately. Let them come and look.

Come on, sit down.

Faster, faster!

If you dig anymore, you will come out the other side of the world.

There.

There. Dig!

Get out of there, you damn fool!

Where is this damned body?

It seems you buried Wang here yourself, captain.

What's the matter?

We should take that lowlife Wang out at the right time, brother.

Let's take him out, my Bey.

We know how to reveal the truth in front of everyone.

Grigor knows our first move will be to kidnap him.

That's why he will cut off his breath without wasting any time.

If he kills the trader, how will we prove our innocence?

With his dead body.

Isn't it, Alparslan Bey?

Atabey is right.

Since Wang's living body didn't testify, his dead body will.

Atsız, Artuk, hide here and watch the market.

Hurry up, damned men we're in Seljuk lands, come on.

We should remember this place and tell our Bey, brother.

You're not very good at tracking. Give up.

It seems captain Alexander is in pursuit of another slander.

I say again, we fear no one but Allah.

If we are to kill the one who slanders us...

we wouldn't do it secretly...

we'd do it in front of all of you.

Where is this damned body, Batius?

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Look what we're dealing with while Gülce is there all alone and unwell.

Look.

This is the second time you entered without permission, Gevher Hatun.

Are there no manners and etiquettes in your home?

What do you want now?

Are you one to talk about manners and etiquettes, Seferiye Hatun?

We didn't consider you a guest...

rather a member of the family. And what did you do?

The one who tried to kill Alparslan yesterday to escape the wedding...

might try to poison our food today.

Search everywhere!

You cannot search a Terken's (ruling woman) room like this.

If I wanted to take your life, I wouldn't poison you, Gevher.

I would look you in the eye and stab you in your heart.

Look everywhere.

SURMARI TRADING MARKET

Guards, run!

What's going on there?

Who is shouting?

What's going on here?

I was unloading wheat from the cart...

your son, Captain Alexander had said that Wang left the market.

And that Alparslan killed him.

There is something in his hand.

There is a crest on it.

This button belongs to Captain Alexander.

Wang must have pulled it during the struggle.

- Did the Captain kill Wang? - The Captain lied to us.

How can such a thing be possible?

Alexander!

What is Wang's horse doing outside, Alexander? What is going on?

Watch and see what's going on, father.

Move!

What is the body doing here?

Only you can answer that, son.

I didn't kill him, father.

Where is your button, Alexander?

I don't understand.

This button shouldn't have been in the palm of the dead...

it should have been on your arm.

Find him, Captain.

Find him before Alparslan harms him.

Don't you worry.

Father...

How could you make such a mistake?

Father...

Stand up!

Your son's crime is a big one, governor.

The price of the slander...

of Wang's death, is this punch the price?

- Is this your justice? - Who said his punishment is over?

Watch and see what happens.

This situation is unacceptable!

Like you, I just found out.

I am very sorry.

I am very sorry and ashamed.

I will punish him myself.

Tie him in the square.

Take him!

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Even if my son...

commits a crime...

he will be punished.

Why do you think trader Wang was killed?

So that he wouldn't speak.

Because they are also responsible for the deaths of the other traders.

Wang was killed because he knew this.

I'm telling you again, I had no knowledge of what happened.

I didn't know about trader Wang or the other four traders.

If my son, Alexander commits such acrime in Surmari...

or even in Ani, I will kill him with my own hands!

No one should have any doubt!

Now go from here.

Don't push your luck.

If there is one thing you shouldn't doubt...

that is when it benefits them...

like Wang and the others...

without batting and eyelid, they will kill you too.

Those who don't want to end up like them know where they should be.

Alparslan may be innocent in this case...

But that doesn't mean everything he says is true!

I still don't trust him!

I want to know that you don't trust him too.

If there is anyone amongst you who doesn't trust me, then listen carefully.

You have two paths.

Either you believe me and stay here under the strong wings of the Roman Empire!

Or you believe him and go back to Vaspurakan...

that I will take back eventually!

However, those who go shouldn't forget this...

Their betrayal will never be forgotten!

They will never be able to trade here!

And they will forever remain enemies of the Roman Empire!

VASPURAKAN

With this plan, you cleared your name, and...

you broke the trust the traders had in the Byzantines, son. Live long.

Like this all the traders saw that Governor Grigor and his son...

Alexander cannot be trusted.

Still, some of the traders...

will think the Governor is so just as to flog his own son, and they will stay.

You're right, brother.

That's what Grigor wanted.

There will certainly be those who fall for this.

But soon...

all traders will part ways from Surmari...

and come one by one to Vaspurakan, In Sha Allah.

In Sha Allah.

In Sha Allah.

In Sha Allah.

Come, sit, Arslan Yusuf.

Firstly, let bygones be bygones, Alparslan Bey.

Even though no one trusted your word...

I was sure your didn't kill those traders.

- I... - Let's get to the point.

Do you have something to say?

I am embarrassed in front of you because of my daughter, Seferiye's doings.

Please forgive me.

Did your daughter do only one thing that she be forgiven, Arslan Yusuf Bey?

- Besides - Selcen Hatun!

My daughter...

doesn't want to run from this castle...

nor does she want to run from marriage.

Her only wish is to see her little sister in Bukhara.

She loves her like a mother.

If she said she had a sister, I'd have had her brought here.

Gülce is very ill, Alparslan Bey.

She doesn't have the strength to travel.

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Gevher is so imprudent.

How dare she treat you like that?

Oh Allah, what Hell have I fallen into?

How will I be free of this place?

Seferiye, you saved my life.

I owe you a life...

but you're losing your life before my eyes...

and I feel helpless.

The Seljuks killed my mother and father.

And you almost died today because of them.

To be fair, this marriage is worse than death!

You'll be no different to a prisoner your whole life.

My father is very angry, he will speed things up.

I have no other option, Zeren.

If only there would be an incident that would prevent this marriage.

We'll have bought us some time to possibly find a way out.

A battle...

or...

a funeral, for example.

Whatever he did, Alparslan managed to clear his name.

It's good he cleared his name...

but Governor Grigor lashing his own son with his own hands...

he is a smart man. Very smart.

He won't tolerate anything weakening his trade.

That's probably why he didn't support his son.

- Well, what did you say to him? - I told him very clearly.

I told him, in every condition and every situation...

he will address me, not Alparslan.

You'll see, Yınal Bey...

when you secure your trade with the Governor...

the rest will come.

May I come in, Yınal Bey?

Why has he come now?

Come in.

What is it, my nephew? This time of night?

Was your morning any good thay you expect your night to be so, Yınal Bey?

Tell me without stalling.

In fact, you tell me, why do you meet the Governor without our knowledge?

Do you send men to watch over me now?

Who do you think you are?

Will I give you an account of every move I make?

Who would want to ask you why you meet with the enemy, Yınal Bey?

Should I call my father, Çağrı Bey, or our Sultan?

I went to clean up after your independent acts...

and tidy up after you.

Why else would I go?

What did I do for you to tidy up after me?

Now you stand before me and raise your voice because you've been acquitted, my nephew.

But know that every plan you make yourself...

and every step you take puts us and our state in a difficult situation.

Okay, you didn't kill those traders...

but while trying to make Vaspurakan a trade centre...

you caused the death of other traders.

Those who caused their deaths were exposed.

Those who set traps behind me will surely be exposed.

Özür dilerim baba. Özür dilerim.

I'm sorry.

Never forget how lucky you are that you feel pain in your back.

If you make another mistake...

have no doubt you won't even be able to feel the slightest pain.

My lord.

Wipe your tears.

Come in.

The prisoners confessed that they are Seljuk spies, my lord.

So they finally confessed.

Yes, my lord, before we took their lives.

This one?

He is the only one who never died.

He still claims he is loyal to the Roman Empire.

Is that so?

Long live the Holy Roman Empire. Long live the Kaiser.

- What? - Long live the Kaiser.

So you're determined you won't confess.

I hope you don't think I'd believe you...

just because you can bear the pain.

Bring me the messenger.

Maybe your friends from Vaspurakan will tell the truth, Alpagut.

What do you say?

Should we call your friends to Ani and host them together?

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

After all this chaos...

Grigor inviting us to Ani isn't a good sign.

He must be up to something, but what?

It must be important since he invited us a group.

I don't think he's brave enough to plot something.

If he has something to say, he can come and say it.

Why should we go to him?

If you don't want to go, let me, Alparslan Bey.

We should accept the invitation and not let them think we are afraid.

If we decide to go, we'll go, Yınal Bey.

But if you want to talk to him...

you can invite the Governor.

Son, if we go, we may get news from Alpagut.

It's been a while we do not know how he is or what he's doing.

I have a bad feeling.

I don't think it will go until I see my son.

Godspeed, son. May your path be open. Be careful.

- Don't worry, father. - In Allah's safety.

Where is Gevher? I haven't seen her since morning.

She might be asleep.

I saw her at the balcony late last night.

Maybe she couldn't sleep.

We're used to the tribe.

If we aren't close to the ground, we're not comfortable.

Let Alparslan's wedding be completed, we will go back safely.

Sir.

Won't you join the invitation your father organised for Alparslan at Ani?

No.

It would be better if I stay away from my father for some time, Batius.

Batius...

what my father said regarding me in front of everyone...

you know he'll really do it?

He will really kill me if I make another mistake.

ANI CASTLE

Translated by TR2EN20 Uploaded to opensubtitles.org

Welcome.

I will host you soon but first...

there is an execution ceremony we shouldn't miss.

I hope nothing bad happens at this invitation.

I wonder if it was better if Akınay didn't go.

My Bey, we should take our precautions nevertheless.

If you allow, I'll take the Alps

- Selcen Hatun! Selcen Hatun! - What's the matter?

Wait, girl. Calm down. Tell me

Selcen Hatun, Gevher...

What happened to Gevher, my dear? Tell me.
