Having learned that Barbarossa's daughter, Khizir Hayreddin Pasha, has been kidnapped, Mustafa personally goes in search of the girl.
Shahzade's people manage to track the kidnappers and free Mikhrinisa.
Mustafa personally decides to take the girl to her father and arrives in the capital without warning anyone.
Devoted servants told Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska that Shahzade was heading to Barbarossa and she immediately took advantage of it.
Hasseki unobtrusively advises Suleiman to visit the sick Pasha, because he devotedly served the Ottoman Empire for so many years.
Near the bed of the pasha, Suleiman finds Shahzade Mustafa and the commander-in-chief among the Janissaries Yali - aga.
Suleiman perceives the secret visit of the senior Shahzadeh as preparation for a riot, and despite the fact that Mustafa explained the reason for his arrival in the capital, doubts crept into the soul of the sovereign.
Suleiman knew about the loyalty of Barbarossa and the janissaries to the young shahzad, and given that Mustafa had disregarded his orders not for the first time, he decided to test his loyalty.
Suleiman ordered the execution of the commander-in-chief of the janissaries Ali - aga and the order must be carried out by Mustafa. The reason for the execution was a quarrel in the Janissary corps with Rustem Pasha.
It was a difficult choice for Shahzadeh, but the devotee of Ali - aha, said that he was ready to give his life. for the sake of the future state. And Mustafa had no choice but to carry out the order.
Did Suleiman do the right thing? It's hard to judge. Suleiman knew that Rustem Pasha had started the conflict in the Janissary corps, and it was for this reason that he sent him into exile.
Suleiman needed an excuse to verify the sincerity of Mustafa's words, and the price of this is human life.
But, even having fulfilled the order, Mustafa also remained a traitor in the eyes of the sovereign.
To check the loyalty of his son, Suleiman sent a new head of the Janissaries Ferhat - aga to him, with a proposal to make a coup.
