Episode 50
My lion grandson
I decided to marry you with Aybige Hatun
May God bless it
Aybige and I are like siblings
Thank you for considering me worthy of Şehzade Mustafa
But our Şehzade is right. The idea of marrying has surprised me too
Where did that come from while I was going to Crime my Sultana?
What would you do Matrakçı? How would you end it? Are you threatening me?
It is about my honor
I'm ready to die for it
That'd be the solution for me
My Paşa, Put an end to it
Or I will end my life
Since it is that bad, I'll do the necessary thing
Don't worry
Go away now, Hatice Sultana shouldn't see you here
What's going on?
Aybige, my beautiful niece
Friendship and consanguinity between Ottoman and Giray dynasties extend back a long time
You know, I also came from Crimea to here
May God rest his soul, When I married to Sultan Selim Khan his Highness, I was even younger than you
He was a prince
Then he became a world-wide emperor
Just like my son, Sultan Süleyman
I wish the same fate for my grandson Mustafa
- Amen
Therefore your marriage with Şehzade is pretty important
That'd be in favor of everybody to understand and accept this marriage
I have no doubts my Valide
They'll get used to the idea in time and understand us
Who made this decision?
My Valide, does his Majesty know?
- I approve it my Mustafa
I saw you from inside. You looked like you were arguing. What's the matter?
Nasuh Efendi divorced Nigar Kalfa
Is that true?
That's true my Sultana
Because she can't have a child?
What's the rush Nasuh Efendi? You're still young
You have a long life ahead of you
My God would surely give you a child
We can find a cure
We'll call the best doctors and healers
My Sultana, I've waited long enough. I want to have a family too
Excuse me
I'm very bored. Shall we go out?
I must study
Sit down and study
Aybige Hatun, welcome
Is not Hürrem Sultana here?
- She's not here
But she'll come. You may wait if you like
Have you cried?
You are so sweet Mihrimah. But no, I haven't
Who made you sad? Tell me and I will punish immediately
What's wrong with you?
Mehmet, Mihrimah, leave us alone
What happened to you?
Valide Sultana wanted me to notify you that Aybige Hatun won't go
- How so? Will she go later?
No, Valide Sultana has prevented it. She won't return to Crimea
What's the reason? Why is she staying?
- I really don't know
That's all I've been told
What a palace
They didn't even ask if I want it or not
What did Mustafa say? Does he want?
No. He was surprised like me
Then take it easy, dont be sad in vain
Don't cry before you get hurt
- That's true
But our Valide is very determined
No way
Especially when you are in love with someone else. I won't let it happen
Don't deny it. I'm aware of everything
My Sultana
- Never be embarrassed. Don't hesitate
You are not doing anything wrong
Stand behind your love. Then no power can stop you
I'll be standing by you
Trust me
Everything will be as you wish
I kept quiet near Valide our of respect. But I don't want such marriage. How can you decide on my behalf?
A Şehzade's marriage concerns the whole Ottoman Empire
Do you think you can have a casual family life?
I'd like to decide on whatever I'll experience. How can you intervene to my life?
Of course I can
I'm your mother
Trust me son, this is the best decision for your future
Don't forget that you are not alone in this palace. You've got rivals
It will be in your favor to marry to Crimean Khan's daughter
It is understood that my words mean nothing to you
- Mustafa!
What will happen to Nigar?
After living for long years in harem... How can a single woman live?
What would she do?
Shall we take her here again?
What a precious woman is Nigar Kalfa
Will we worry about her too?
Matrakçı has done the necessary thing. Nigar Kalfa won't have any problems. She'l live comfortably
Good
Who is he? What's he doing to the sculptures?
He came for the maintenance of the sculptures
I talked to him. He'll make a sculpture of me
Where did that come from?
It was in my mind for a long time. I'll have it done at last
No, İbrahim. I don't want it. You won't have it done
Terrible things happened because of these sculptures
If you have your own statue sculpture it would be a disaster. Don't unsettle us for no reason please
Actually we will be unsettled if you continue behaving like this!
Don't do that İbrahim. It is a mistake. What would his Majesty think?...
I'm just hearing it now my Mustafa
It looks like my mother and Mahidevran made the decision between each other
Then I'm requesting you to prevent this marriage your Majesty. Because I don't want this marriage
Of course it is important if you want it or not. But this decision of women doesn't sound so wrong to me
Aybige is a beautiful and smart girl
Also she's worthy of you since she's the daughter of Giray Khan
Father, I ...
- Don't hurry up my Mustafa. Think about it first
Is he marrying?!
Quiet
What will happen?
Is my duty over?
- The opposite. You have more responsibilities now
We should find a way to prevent it. Because that marriage wouldn't be good for us
Don't let them to draw you away from Şehzade. You need to get him under your thumb
Is master of privy chamber in the palace?
- He's in his room. Why are you asking? May I help you
No need. I'll take care of it
Since it is your wish, I'll think about it
I hope you will make the right decision
I want to know if my decision will change the result or not
We'll talk about it then
It seems that the news spread quickly
- I just heard about it
What do you think Pargalı? Do you think this marriage is suitable?
Valide Sultana has made the right decision. I hope it will be blessed. Congratulations my Şehzade
With your permission, I'll go back to my chamber
I heard you are staying
I am
I wonder, why did you change your mind?
Haven't you heard?
Valide prevented it
She's made a decision about my future
I hope it is good?
It is a good thing
They want to marry me with Şehzade Mustafa
My dear brother Sahip Giray Khan
First of all, I greet you and kiss your eyes
I have got a news that I think will make you happy
What are you doing here?
There are documents that needs to be signed
- Gülşah
Won't you say anything?
What can I say?
I just want to know what you think and feel
Do my feelings matter?
Şehzade Mustafa is a great match for you
Of course I'm happy
Don't worry
What happened between us is a secret
They'll never be told
What are you saying? What happiness? Can you see how I'm?
I'm very sad
While I'm thinking how to get rid of it, what are you saying?
- Was not it you who wanted to go away despite last night?
What do you expect me to think?
You don't get it, do you
You don't get why I wanted to escape
It is even hard to admit what is happening in my heart
I'm shouting out infront of you
But you don't hear me
Daye Hatun came
Let her in
I'm pretty sad for Nigar Kalfa. Why didn't you tell me?
Excuse me my Sultana
I don't understand what you are saying. What happened to Nigar?
Nasuh Efendi divorced her. Haven't you heard?
Oh God
I've just heard it from you. She's been at palace all day long. She didn't say a thing
She's very proud. That's why she should've kept silent
You know, Nasuh Efendi divorced her because she can't have a baby
Nigar has been happy since she married
I'm surprised
Investigate it
Maybe there's something they hide
Don't worry my Sultana. I'll do the necessary thing
Welcome
Please don't get mad
I'm not peaceful when you are like that
Pack your stuff. You are going
Please my Bey. Where can I go at night time? Are you throwing me to the street?
You'll live at your home by now. It is Paşa's order
But...
How so?
You'll announce to everyone that we divorced tomorrow. I'll finally get rid of this disgrace
Prepare. I'll take you home
You are a very good person
You are fair
I hope you'll have a happy family
Hurry up. We should go before it gets late
Brother Mustafa is pretty busy nowadays. He can't spare time for you
But we talked. We'll meet tomorrow
He'll forget about us when he gets married
How do you know about that?
Mehmet told me
- Lie! She told me
You listened to us, didn't you?
Shame on you. That won't happenagain
Sultan Süleyman Khan his Highness
My beautiful
Welcome
Thank you my shining sun
Your Majesty, if my brother doesn't, I can marry to Aybige
You should grow up first
- I'm grown up. I want a harem too. I want a chamber for myself too
When the time comes, you'll have
That's enough kids. Leave his Majesty alone
What did his Majesty say?
He told me to think
- I said okay
Don't worry. My decision won't change
I won't marry you
I thought you'd accept for a moment
Why are you so afraid? Am I not a person worthy of marrying?
No, I didn't mean that. I just never considered you like that
Is there somebody who waits for you in Crimea?
There's no such person
I'm against marriages. I'll never marry
Never say never
You never know what tomorrow brings
Who can force us since we don't want that? They'll give up in time
I wish so
It is not that easy Aybige. It is not just our marriage. It is the marriage of dynasties
They won't give up easily
You are an early comer Malkoçoğlu
- You can't drink everything
I see you are in a good mood
- I got rid of a big trouble Bey
I hope it is good?
- It is very good. I got divorced
May I ask the reason?
The reason is...
She couldn't bear me the baby that I've wanted for a long time
So there's no other reason
No, what could there be?
- I don't know
Anyway. What's the matter with you? You look pretty sad
- Nevermind
Is it about the girl you mentioned about the other day?
You said you'd decide for Mustafa's future
Do you have a doubt Hürrem?
- No. But Mustafa's marriage is pretty important
Why do you leave the decision to our Valide and Mahidevran. I didn't get it
The final decision hasn't been made yet
But it is appropriate according to me. Why are you against it?
Both Aybige and Mustafa don't want it
I would like Şehzade Mustafa to have a love marriage like us
May God grace Mustafa with blessings
- Amen
Come in
My Efsun
Şehzade your Highness
What's wrong?
Nothing
Did you hear that?
I wish you happiness and peace
I can do nothing else
Don't leave me... please
I can't stand to be without you
I can agree to share you
Just don't leave me
Don't be afraid. We'll always be together
Hürrem has already gone into action to prevent
- She sure wouldn't want Mustafa to get stronger with this marriage
Her efforts are in vain my Valide
According to what I've heard, his Majesty likes the decision
You asked about our Şehzade. He's with Efsun Hatun again
Who's Efsun?
I mentioned you about her
The girl our Şehzade fell in love with, Nora
He's with her every night
- Oh her
What were you thinking? Send the girl off
Are you sure my Valide?
I wouldn't like to take Mustafa on me
- It should be prevented before too late
We shouldn't experience a second Hürrem case
My precious sister, wake up
My Sultana, are you okay?
Where's Paşa?
- My Sultana, he's downstairs
He's with sculptor Antuan
Give me some water
What's going on Nigar?
I heard about your divorce from Hatice Sultana. Why didn't you tell me?
I...
I'd tell you
But I didn't want to bother anybody with my own problems
- Not a bit. Are not we a family here?
Didn't I tell you to tell me whenever you have a problem?
What will happen?
How will you live on your own a divorced woman?
A divorced woman?
Did that demon divorce you?
My Paşa, I'm ready
Okay
My Osman
My Huricihan. Go eat something
Attention
I had a terrible nightmare. It is not a good sign
Give up about the sculpture
My Sultana, the kids are pretty hungry. Take care of them
Please end this topic
Don't make me and yourself sad anymore
Come on Antuan
Show your talent
Sinister man. What does he know about love? He only knows how to play matrak and drinking. I'll teach his place
Stop my Ağa
- Don't stop me
I'll teach his place. He'll pay for throwing a beauitulf woman to the street
It is my fault Ağa. I couldn't bear him a baby. What can he do?
- He can go to hell. Dirty demon
May God never give him a child
- Come on Ağa. Don't swear. It is a pity
You are acting like you divorced him
What will happen? Where will you live?
Thanks to him, Nasuh Efendi won't leave me without a home. He gave me a house
Take this. You'll need it
- I can't
I told you to take
- No my Ağa
I promise I'll tell you at first if I ever need
- Promise?
Promise
- If you need help you'll tell me first
- I will tell you first
Şehzade's eyes don't see anyone else besides you. What did you do to him?
- He named her Efsun. Obviously she casted a spell on him
I'd die for our Şehzade
Efsun Hatun, pack your stuff. You are going to old palace
Have I made a mistake? Why are you sending me off?
I don't know that. It is Valide Sultana's order. Prepare immediately
No. I won't go
I'm Şehzade's favourite concubine
Shut up and prepare immediately
My Sultana, I was told you want to see me
What's happening? What are you doing?
Special dresses will be made for you
I don't want my Sultana
But me no buts
You'll be bride of Ottoman Dynasty
You should show great care of what you wear
Choose the fabric you wish. I appointed concubiens for your service. All of them are at your disposal
My Sultana I'm not like you. These dresses won't suit me
Contrarily they'll suit you
You are a very beautiful girl
It is about revealing it
Then you'll dazzle my Mustafa
So they divorced. The man is right. Since the woman is faulty
- You are faulty! Nigar Kalfa would have many children if she wanted
But the bald man is not capable. He must be eunuch like us. They must have cut him too
- Behave yourself! If I tell to Nasuh Efendi he'd hang you from your legs
What are you doing here?
- Daye Hatun sent me. They are sending me to old palace. She wants you to take care of it
What have you done again?!
- I really have no fault. Valide ordered it. I asked about it but I was told nothing
That's good! Go to hell! Make way
I never liked you. Daye Hatun will take care of you
What's happening? Why are you following me?
- Mahidevran Sultana appointed us to your service. If you need anything...
No need. I don't want. Go back
What did I just say? Didn't you understand me?
What would we say to our Sultana? She ordered us. Don't place us in an awkward situation
- Tell you your Sultana that I don't want any tails behind me
What happened? Have they realised it?
- No my Ağa
What happened then?
- I don't know. Please prevent it
Do what they say
Don't be rebellious. I'll talk to Hürrem Sultana and take care of it
You asked for me
Have a seat Nigar
Oh where is it?
Here
What's this?
- Alaca Taşı (kind of a mineral)
It is good for any kind of sorrow and sadness. It takes the troubles away
And it gets dark as it takes the troubles away
Take it, put in a sac and always keep it with you
Don't cry
Don't be sad
Nasuh Efendi made a mistake. He can't find a better one than you
He should be sad for himself
You are young
You are healthy
You'll marry again one day
When the time comes you'll take your babies in your arms
I...
I...
- Mighty God has a solution for all problems
We'll somehow find a way
We can see hodjas, we can see healers
Keep your pecker up
I'll always be with you
I'll never let you be in need of anybody
Attention
My Sultana, welcome
Thank you Paşa
My Mihrimah Sultana, what a beauty
- Thank you
Who is this? What's he doing?
Antuan. He's a very valuable sculptor
Sultan Süleyman Khan his Highness
Is there a problem
- Does there have to be a problem?
Otherwise you don't visit. That's why I'm asking
You've made a decision about my Mustafa
I was waiting for this
You'll be against it and snub me again
I think it is a pretty good decision. It is appropriate for me. I can't think about a better partner than Aybige for my Mustafa
We came to see Hatice Sultana my Paşa
- She's in her room. The twins take a long time
Go, I'll go in a while
I see you are having a bust sculptured
- I wanted to use the opportunity since I found such a valuable sculptor
Do you mind?
No
It is none of my business
Do whatever you want
Thank you. You are gracing
How did Hatice Sultana allow this?
As you know, she doesn't like sculptures at all
- You can ask her
But since his Majesty allows for it, who could dare to interfere, right?
You continue I'll be at upstairs
There's a reason behind why I hurry up. Because I have concerns about Mustafa's future
What's that scaring you my Valide?
- If you think about what you experienced when you were his age, you would understand what I mean
That day, If you wore the poisonous Kaftan your father sent you, If I couldn't prevent it, none of us would be here now
What do you mean my Valide? Level with me
A mother's main object is to protect her children. But it doesn't apply to the fathers
Especially if his son is a heir to his throne
I know you won't be part of such bloody games. Because you would never sacrifice anyone from your own blood
But there'll be people who'll try to dissuade you, my lion. Never let those cruel ones reach their aims
Your conscience should be your compass. That will show you the right way
If I'm bothering...
- No, Mahidevran
Our conversation is already over
My lion is likeminded about the marriage decision
So we shall start the engagement preparations immediately
- Don't hurry. You should convince Mustafa and Aybige Hatun first
I won't accept it before they accept it
Too broad move my Şehzade. Don't forget, you should defend yourself at first
Let's see
Like this?
- Nice
Not to the sword. Look into my eyes
- Okay. I'm looking
What did I tell you?
- It is her fault
Are you ready?
Let's go then
What's up Gülşah Hatun?
What's her fault?
- It is none of your business. Come on
You deserved it. You betrayed Hürrem Sultana! Look at her, draw a lesson from her
I wanted to come here when I heard you were here
- Good. We were training sword drill with Mehmet
Leave Mehmet alone. Face me if you are strong enough
We don't draw a sword to women, do we master of privy chamber?
That's true my Şehzade
When will you marry?
Never
- What does it mean?
It means I don't want this marriage. Because I consider her as a sister
Aybige Hatun, don't be sad. I can marry you
What a naughty Şehzade you are. Come with me
Do you get it now? There's nothing between me and Mustafa. There can't be
What an elegance
I'm sure you'll hurt many hearts
How are you?
- I'm fine my Sultana. How are you?
I couldn't feel better
Mihrimah, go back to your chamber
- Have a nice day
Why is that girl with you?
I took her when Gülşah started to serve our Valide
As you know, it is very difficult to find a trustworthy concubine in the harem
You know she tried to kill me
It is a pity
I wouldn't like them to think you were the one who supported her
How many more times should I tell you? I have nothing to do with those games
I don't care anything besides my Şehzade's future. I'm sure you heard about it
He's marrying to daughter of Khan of Crimea
Not so fast. Don't be happy yet
Every cloud has a silver lining
Don't do any efforts in vain
Nobody can prevent the rise of my Şehzade
The most powerful of the Sultanas
- What happened again?
It is bad my Sultana
Valide Sultana banished Efsun to old palace
- Where did that come from?
I talked to her. She did nothing wrong. We also couldn't understand it
- Does Mustfa know?
No, my Sultana. What shall we do? How will we get the girl back?
We shouldn't interfere. Tell to Mustafa and that should be enough
As you wish my Sultana
Prepare Fatma
For the halvet?
- Yes
I'm honored my Sultana
I totally trust you
Do your best
Please my son
Oh Fatma Hatun, you are good. Very few people get this opportunity. Know the value of it
Is Şehzade inside?
Come in
Şehzade your Highness
Who are you?
- I'm your concubine. Mahidevran Sultana ordered me
I mean I came with our Sultana's order
Yes my Şehzade
Where's Efsun Hatun? I told her to come in the evening
- Mahidevran Sultana ordered to send her to old palace. Haven't you been informed?
If they had their druthers, they'd arrange the engagement right now. They should've already informed your father
His Majesty is not against it either
I knew it would be like this
Have you talked to Bali Bey?
Aybige, if you want me to help you, you should be open to me
I talked to him, yes
But what if Şehzade Mustafa will have to accept the marriage game?
You are right
Mustafa can't resist the pressure too much. He'll accept it tomorrow if not today
Don't just wait
Be the captain of your souls
What can we do?
I got an idea...
Gülşah Hatun, get out
What's going on?
- Did you send Efsun off?
Who's the Efsun?
- Mom...
Oh that Croatian girl
Yes, I sent her
- The reason?
I don't like her
She's a sinister. Not worthy of you
- I want her back, mother. Please do what's necessary
I didn't know she was that precious
- You know it now. Order to take her back
My Valide has got an order for you
- Order my Sultana
Come in
It is not appropriate to come here. What if someone sees?
- They can see. I don't care
You should care it. Because we'll be beheaded
Let's escape from here
"Escaping" again
Listen to me
I'll talk to his Majesty
- Are you crazy? Don't try to talk about it
I'll just ask for permission to go to Crimea
They just prevented you
- Not permanently
If I say I'll come back with my father, nobody would prevent it
- Then?
Then we'll take the road together
and we will never come back
To Crimea?
- She requested me
I told her to talk on her own. She's been yearning for her family for years
At least she can visit them for a while
You are so interested in this matter
- Of course I am. My the only friend in palace is Aybige
This won't get us anywhere. The consequences would be terrible for both of us
Do you want to be with me?
Aybige...
- I asked a question
Then you'll agree to pay the price
What did you do today?
We visited Hatice Sultana. Mihrimah wanted to see the kids
I miss them very much too
Come near me
How are they? I hope they are all okay
Knock on wood. They kids are pretty healthy
I also saw İbrahim Paşa. He was in a good mood. He's got a new friend
Who's the friend?
Someone called Antuan. I think he's Venetian
A sculptor man. He's pretty talented
Who's that Antuan?...
Don't you know it?
Paşa ordered a sculptor. He's having his own bust sculptured
Hatice Sultana is very scared. You know, she believes they bring bad luck
She's not wrongç After many incidents... I don't know where that came from
Won't it be taught that he raises his own icon?
Don't bother your pretty head with such affairs
Do you have any other orders my Şehzade?
My Efsun
My darling who magics me with her eyes. Finally you are back
I thought I'd never see you again. I was so afraid. I was out of breath
It was like years
I've been burning for you
We'll never seperate by now. Don't be afraid
This is for you
Always keep it with you. Whenever you look at it, remember that I'm always with you
Şehzade left as soon as he saw me
Did you tell her I sent Efsun off?
- Of course notmy Sultana
But I saw Gül Ağa before I got in. He must have told her
Hürrem made him tell surely
She's trying to drive a wedge between me and my son
Antuan, when will my bust be finished?
There's lots to do my Paşa. We'll finish the draft, then it will be forged, then bronze founding
If I don't like it, I'll behead you
What's going on Pargalı?
His Majesty came
Oh gosh
This won't end well, Gülfem
Your Majesty, Antuan is one of the captives we brought from the last Vienna Campaign
He came for the care of sculptures. When I realised his talent I wanted to use the opportunity
If he's that talented artist, why don't I know about him?
I didn't inform you on purpose. Because I was preparing a surprise gift that I think you would like. But it is over with your visit
What's that?
Antuan is making a sculpture of you from your portrait
Your Majesty, if you don't consider it appropriate...
It is appropriate Pargalı, he can do it
I want to see my Hatice
Don't fancy yourself because of coming back. I wanted you to come back
Because I don't want my Mustafa to be troubled
- May God bless you my Sultana
If I made a mistake unconsciously, forgive me. I'm loyal to you and our Şehzade. I'm honored to serve you
Mustafa is my the most precious treasure. Not only for me but also for our dynasty
Know your place. Don't get too close
Don't try to take advantage of his interest in you
I'll destroy you even if you make a tiny mistake
My Sultana don't worry
I'd die for you and our Şehzade
We'll see Efsun Hatun. You may take your leave
Whatever you did ensorceled our Şehzade
What happened? Are you mad because Şehzade didn't even look at your face?
I'll rip your tonge soon
Don't bite off more than you can chew Fatma Hatun. You are talking to Şehzade's favourite
Your favouriteness doesn't concern me. Did you forget? I faced Sultanas
You were there. You defended Hürrem Sultana that day. I really wonder what happened that you are seperated
Worry about yourself instead of thinking these things. Everyone talks about you
You escape from Hürrem Sultana
Be careful. Something bad can happen
Play, play
- Don't be a spoilsport. I'll take your money
Why are you saying it all the time?
- I want to remind you since I'm winning
Oh wow
Play
6 is coming.... and there it is!
You rock, my Ağa!
What are you doing man?
What's that? Are you cheating?!
What cheating?
- What are those? You were hiding them
Those are the rocks I saved
I'll never play with you again!
- Shut your mouth up!
What's happening again?! Enough of noise!
Nobody is working
Nigar didn't come either
- Perhaps something bad happened to her? I said she can't live alone on her own
She sent a message that she's sick
Then I'll visit her
- Sit down. I'll visit there
Şeker Ağa, prepare some food. I can't go with empty hands
Aye aye, right now
What's this? I'll never play backgammon with you!
- Don't play if you don't want to!
Hide them in your b*tt
- Stop talking about my b*tt
Excuse us, we didn't see
Do you remember what you did to me?
I haven't forgotten
Coming
Are not you happy to see me?
No, not that. I just didn't expect you
I'm surprised
- So? Won't you invite me in?
Of course I will. Please, Daye Hatun
Aybige Hatun, are you okay?
- Thanks to you your Majesty
With your permission, there's something important I want to talk to you
- I wanted to talk to you too
I'm aware of the decision my mother made. I'm very pleased for both of you. I have no doubts you'll create a good family with my Şehzade
But it is important for you to accept this marriage too
It is very normal to find this unexpected situation odd. But you'll understand it is the best in time
What do you want to talk about Aybige?
I have a request your Majesty. I couldn't go to Crime because of Valide's decision
If you permit me I would like to visit my family for a short time
Aybige Hatun wants to go to Crimea. I allowed her
She'll stay there for a bit and come back. Make your preperations. You'll escort her and you'll be responsible of her safety
Don't worry your Majesty
But as you know, she's the future bride of our dnyasty
So she's Mustafa's harem
Go and come carefully
I have faith in you
Eat a little more
What kind of soup is this Daye Hatun? It is like a poison
Shut up and eat it
One plate of it gets up a dead man. You'll be fine just drink it
Don't stay here for long Daye Hatun. You may get sick too
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'll take care of myself
- You are grouching to much Nigar. Just eat it
Who's that?
Stop, I'll ckeck it out
No, Daye Hatun
You need to go
What does it mean Nigar?
- Don't ask me anything for God's sake
What's going on Nigar? Who is it on the door?
Daye Hatun, for God's sake. Please Daye Hatun. Get away from here
Go to backyard. Don't see who's coming. You shouldn't know. It is for everyone's sake
What the hell are you doing?
I'm begging you Daye Hatun. I'll tell you everything. But you need to go now
Where have you been?
Excuse me my Paşa. I'm a little sick
Get well soon
My beautiful woman
What's the matter with you?
Not important my Paşa
I got cold
Would you like me to send a doctor?
- No, my Paşa
You came here. I want nothing else from God
You forgot me my Bey. Long time no see
- I came as you see
Matrakçı Nasuh Efendi was talking about a woman. Have you been with her?
There's no such woman
It is impossible
- Is that why you are a sulker?
Stop with the words. Come with me
I'll see his Majesty. Where's master of privy chamber? He'll deliver the message
- They left ma'am. They won't come back tonight
Elenica...
I told you to stop
What's wrong with you my Paşa?
It is like your mind is somewhere else
If you have a trouble...
- Go. Leave me alone
I was told you want to see me my Sultana
- I'm complainant of Hürrem. She's trying to drive a wedge between me and my son this time
She aims to stop the rise of Mustafa. She'll do harm
She's not powerful enough for that
His Majesty wants me to convince Mustafa. He doesn't want no matter how hard I try
He's in love with a girl called Efsun. He's with her every night
I sent the girl off. But he took her back
He's madly in love
I didn't expect this much
He snubbed me for a casual concubine
I'm afraid he won't be convinced to marry
Don't you be sad. I'll talk to him at an appropriate time
How's the cooking going?
- I'm preparing mumbar dolması ( stuffed sheep sausages )
But if you are hungry, I've got rice
No thanks. I don't want
It is very delicious Daye Hatun
I said I don't want
How'S Nigar Kalfa? You said you'd visit her. Did you visit her?
I wish I didn't
Pardon me...
She's got cold
She got sick because of sadness
Yeah because of happiness. Tell her to see me immediately when she comse tomorrow
As you wish
What's going on with them? Everybody's become weird
Give me one more plate
- Sure
Put a lot so I won't ask again
Release us
- Who are you girl? Who are you to try to burn our Sultana?
I'm really innocent. I just did what I was told. Let me go
Hürrem won't keep quiet to insults towards herself
You'll surely pay for it
Show mercy, mercy me
You called me. What's the matter?
- I heard that you don't want to marry Aybige Hatun
I'd like to talk about it with you my Paşa. Help me, prevent it. Save me from this awkward situation
Why don't you want it Mustafa?
Because of that girl?
- Which girl?
The girl you're together with every night
On the 7 hills of the capital that views the sea and in 3 continents, my subjects will kneel down infront of my sculptures
I want to see my Hatice
Bring İbrahim here
Obviously you were informed about me
Understood
So that's why...
Not only beacuse of that. I consider Aybige as a sister. How can I marry her?
Don't be so emotional Mustafa
You are ignoring your mother because of a casual girl
My Şehzade can't do such a thing
I won't allow it
You'll do what's the best for you
Because you need to play the game within the rules
This is not a game Paşa. This is my life
- Your life is Ottoman Empire now
The Empire that you'll be candidate to rule one day is ruled with politics
And politics requires intelligence. You'll learn to act with your intelligence and logic, not with your emotions
This marriage is part of the politics
It will make you more powerful
Also you can do whatever you want with any girl. Who can intervene to that?
In short; this marriage will happen
Did you get it?
Come in
Where were you last night?
I had things to do
- You went to the pub, didn't you? To see Elenica. Don't even dare to deny it
Why would I deny it? Yes, I was with her
It is a pity
While I'm fighting here for us, you have fun with other women. Is this how you respect?
What kind of love is this?
- I have a great respect for you
But what makes you think I'm in love?
Did I ever tell you that?
What are you saying?
The things that happened...
- Don't think too much about them
It was a mistake
Prepare my horse. I'm returning to palace
- Aye aye my Paşa
What happened?
- His Majesty is calling you
He ordered you to come immediately
Nigar Hatun, welcome. How have you been?
- I'm fine thank goodness
Daye Hatun wants you to see her as soon as you arrived
But she was very angry
I hope it is good. What have you done again?
I have no fault. It shouldn't be about me
I don't know that
½£$@!#
Şehzade Mustafa his Highness
My Mustafa welcome
Is there a matter?
- No there's not
I've made a decision about my marriage with Aybige. Because his Majesty wanted me to think
I'm all ears
I thought
I decided this marriage is pretty reasonable
Will you marry?
- Yes
You made the best decision my lion. I can assure you won't regret it
We'll arrange the most beautiful wedding of all times, won't we my Valide?
We were talking about you
Since everybody is here, I want to say something
If our Şehzade agrees...
I'm ready to marry him
What's my fault?
- Are you even asking
Don't you have any shame?
I know what you do
I saw it with my eyes. İbrahim Paşa got in your home
Daye Hatun, I am really innocent
- How so?
I know you love İbrahim Paşa
But what I didn't know was that Paşa also...
God damn it
What a scandal
You may take your leaves
Have I made a mistake unconsciously?
- You made no mistakes that I don't know about
But if there's something you hide from me, tell me
You can be sure I'll listen with patience and toleration
I don't know what you are talking about. There's nothing I hide
Then why's the fear in your eyes Pargalı?
What's discomposing you?
Your greed?
Your conceit? Your anger?
Which feelings had you make this bust?
I really have no fault
Nasuh Efendi divorced me at wedding night
While I was waiting beware of anything he came and divorced me
I was very sad. I cried because of my fate
I asked for forgiveness without knowing my fault. He left without telling me anything
Then İbrahim Paşa came
He said I am his woman
How could you let that?
- How could I say no to Paşa? Is it possible?
and I love him
- Damn your love!
Do you know what would happen if this scandal is heard?!
What's going on here?
Forgive me. I had no bad intentions...
- What were you saying that day?
On the 7 hills of the capital that views the sea and in 3 continents, my subjects will kneel down infront of my sculptures
Now...
Which hill will you locate this bust on?
Who will kneel infront of it?
İbrahim of Parga
Theo, Son of fisher Manolis
What is that making you arrogant?
Is it me?
Is it the power or wealth I grace to you?
Or the honor I grace you from my victories?
How do you get that daring?
How can you consider yourself equal to me?
- Of course not
As long as I live I won't allow for anyone's sculpture except mine
Whoever dares that...
will get the punishment they deserve from my hands
