Mihrimah did not have time to recover from the break with Tashlidzhaly, when her heart pounded again in the rhythm of love. And this time Malkochoglu became her chosen one - a faithful servant of the Sultan and the first love of the young mistress.
Mihrimah tried in every possible way to attract the attention of a devoted slave, but Bali-Bey remained on the sidelines and did not reciprocate her mistress.
Mihrimah's love for Malkochoglu did not remain hidden from other eyes, and almost everyone in the harem knew about her feelings, but not everyone approved of the choice of the padishah's favorite. But this did not stop Mihrimah, she wrote letters to her lover and even followed him.
Of course, Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska became aware of the new love, who, despite the fact that she promised to marry her daughter for love, had her own interests in her marriage.
Malkochoglu was a loyal servant and the main thing for him is the loyalty and safety of Suleiman, and he thought about relationships last, and he said this in a letter to the young lady.
But Mihrimah was not going to give up and continued to pursue the keeper of the chambers.
To put a fat point in this story, Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska decided to talk to Bali-bey and during the conversation, hid Mihrimah in the next room so that she could hear what was going on.
Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska asked Malkochoglu how he treats her daughter, to which he replied that he respects and appreciates the young mistress, but still treats her like a child.
This is exactly what Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska wanted to hear from Malkochoglu and she did not care about the state of mind of her daughter, she was in her husbands aimed at her a completely different party, which will be not only a good husband for the mistress, but also a faithful ally of herself Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska. And Rustem Pasha was a good fit for this candidate.
