The beautiful and dangerous love of Nigar - Kalfa and Ibrahim - Pasha, from the very beginning did not promise anything good. Both understood that if it became known about their connection, then they would be in trouble.
It so happened that when Hatice found out about the betrayal of her beloved husband, she wanted to punish the traitors. Only Ibrahim quickly set out on a military campaign, leaving his pregnant mistress to be torn apart by his angry wife.
Hatice, after waiting for Nigar to give birth, ordered her to be executed, while she forgave Ibrahim.
Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska is a sultan, this situation did not suit her, her main task is to destroy Ibrahim. And Hatice changed her mind about divorcing him, and even declared war on her.
Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska ordered Rustem to free Kalf from captivity, but for a long time it was impossible to do this. And only on the day of the execution, Rustem managed to save Nigar and bring her to Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska in the palace.
So why did Khyurrem save Nigar - kalfa?
Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska knew that the sultana would not be able to calmly look at Nigar and would order her to be executed again. But in this case, Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska will demand that Ibrahim be executed. After all, both were involved in the criminal relationship, which means that one cannot be executed, and the other cannot be pardoned.
Later, when Hatice sent Firuze to the ruler's quarters, Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska wanted to answer with the same coin, and bring the mistress the same suffering. And I must admit - she succeeded.
Nigar - kalfa in this case was only a "scapegoat", which was played as they wanted.
