Episode 279-
Hurrem insists on marrying Mihrimah with Rustem and Mihrimah reminds her
mother's promise given to her, that she would marry to the one she would fell in
love with & she hates Rustem . Hurrem reminds her that Bali bey doesn't love her and Mihrihah says
that Bali bey hesitates, because he has some bad past memories. When Mihrimah says
that this marriage isn't going to happen, because her father knows she does not
want to marry Rustem, Hurrem tells her that Shah lied to her and her father
agrees to this marriage. When Mihrimah asks why her mother is so persistent,
Hurrem replies that she cares for her happiness and that this marriage will
happen anyway. Mihrimah gets angry and goes to her room. There, she meets Shah
Sultan, who cares about Mihrimah's bad mood. When Mihrimah wonders why Shah
cares so much about her, Shah replies that she and her siblings will always be at
her heart, because they are flesh and blood and that she believes someone tried
to mess up their relationship. Sumbul agha tells Hurrem that Shehzade Mustafa, not only opened
the shipyard, but was on board as well...that Sultan was furious but the
pashas defended Shehzade Mustafa. Hurrem notes that the Pashas in the Council should be changed.
Bali bey tells pashas that, not only letters send by Shehzade Mustafa have
been lost, but Hurrem's as well. Lutfu pasha notices that these ones who stole Shehzade Mustafa's
letters must be enemies, because the letters were very important..
The Venetian Tomaso Konterini congratulates Lutfu pasha for his new appointment as a Grand vizier and asks him to
sign an agreement. Lutfu pasha wonders ironically, how he makes this proposal after the
destruction of the Venetian fleet in Preveza. Lutfu pasha says that in order to conclude
an agreement now, the Italian have to bring him treasure and the key to Rome
and then Lutfu pasha sends him away. Lutfu pasha meets Hurrem, who congratulates him and
wishes him not to have the same end like Ibrahim pasha and Ayaz Pasha....and
wonders, how he is so close to Shah Sultan yet, after all what she told him about shah sultan . In
Manisa, At night , Rumeysa tries to seduce Mustafa, but he does not respond to her & orders her to go out from his room. Hurrem tells
Suleiman that Mihrimah didn't refuse to marry Rustem Pasha, but she has been just surprised. Suleiman replies that there is no reason to be in a hurry. When
Hurrem sets the issue about Shehzade Mustafa, Suleiman is startled. Hurrem praises Shehzade
Mustafa, that the pirates knelt in front of him and Suleiman furious, says that
Mustafa is inadmissible because he put his life in danger...that he should think
that he is a member of the empire. Hurrem reminds him that there are other
four princes and that Shehzade Mustafa is brave and the all Janissaries love him too much..
Mah e dora asks Mustafa if he informed his father and Mustafa tells her that
Khizar raees undertook this issue. Mah e dora tells him that nobody would be able
to come between him and his father. Mustafa explains her that she must
understand that mountains and seas have already come between them and as
time passes, the distance gets longer. Mah e dora tells him that he will always be the lion of his father's heart and Mustafa remebers the dream Mehmet told him once.
He turns, looks at his mother and tells her that he is probably no longer the lion of his father. Lutfu pasha and Shah wonder how Mustafa didn’t follow the rules. Husrev pasha
tells them that Shehzade Mustafa’s reaction seems normal to him, since all the princes
want to prove their abilities to the Sultan. This has always been done. Later Husrev pasha
asks permission to see khazeena and khazeena accepts him. Husrev pasha tells her that they
should be transferred to the new palace and promises that nothing won’t change
to their relationship if she doesn’t want it. Suleyman sends message to Mustafa
to meet him, for hunting, in Bursa. In Manisa Mustafa & mah e dora hear by yahya that Ayaz pasha died and
that Lutfu pasha became the new Grand vizier. Mustafa says that Ayaz pasha together
with Hurrem are responsible for many deaths, so they are being punished about
their behavior. Mah e dora says that Allah is with them since Ayaz pasha is died, Hurem
is exiled and Lutfu pasha became Vizier. Yahia informs her that Hurrem returned to the
palace, and adds that Sultan himself brought her back but mah e dora is not surprised to hear that . The construction of
the mosque is delayed and Lutfu pasha suggests the architect, Mimar Sinan to take over it...sultan agrees with this....mah e dora asks yahya to go Bursa with Shehzade mustafa & not to leave him alone...
