For Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska in the harem, the most devoted servants were Gülnihal and Nigar. It was with them that she shared her problems and plans.
Mahidevran understood that Gulnihal, she would not be able to lure her to her side, but Nigar decided to intimidate. But realizing that Nigar was not afraid, she decided to bribe her, giving her expensive earrings and promising to make her the main kalfa in the harem.
For Nigar, a promotion was a tempting offer, but she understood that Hürrem did not forgive. And for betrayal can deprive her of her life. However, Nigar managed to force Mahidevran to promote her, but at the same time not to betray Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska.
Gulshah made a grave mistake. Deciding to get rid of Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska, she miscalculated and harmed the health of Gulnihal. Mahidevran, having learned about the act of the maid, beat her severely. So much so that the maid ended up in a hospital bed.
Nigar decided to find out what really happened to Gulshah and decided to visit the sick woman. Nigar demanded that Gulshah tell her the truth, promising that if she did not confess, she would not leave the hospital alive. Just two drops of poison will ease her pain. Gulshah, in fear for her life, confessed Nigar that she had committed a crime, because Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska had ridiculed her in front of everyone. But in the dark she made a mistake, and struck not at Hürrem, but at Gulnihal. Gulshah also said that she hid the knife in the fireplace, in Mahidevran's chambers.
Nigar took advantage of the truth revealed to her and immediately went to the chambers of Mahidevran.
Entering the chambers of Mahidevran, Nigar said that they needed to talk. Mahidevran ordered Kalfa to get out, but Nigar said that she had just been to Gulshah and she told her interesting things. Mahidevran did not believe it, and again tried to drive Kalfa away. However, Nigar went to the fireplace and took out an orcdia of crime. And then she asked whom she should go first with this knife, to the Grand Vizier or Valida.
Mahidevran understood that now her fate was in the hands of Nigar and began to beg not to hand her over, promising to make her the main kalfa.
Nigar agreed to remain silent and soon received the coveted position - unkyar-kalfa.
