We finally arrived in Manisa after a trip which took us almost a week. I couldn’t wait to finally arrive here and live in peace, at least more peaceful than it was in Topkapi.

I know that after what I have done Hurrem is even my bigger enemy, but I had in my hands the thing that could destroy her and Bayezid's life so it was obvious she will be careful about this.

"ATTENTION! NESLIHAN SULTANA!" Gazanfer Aga annonuced as I came inside the Harem where everyone bowed to me. Hurrem named me as a Chief of Harem and I could see from the far that everyone was afraid of me.

I walked through the Harem until I met a Harem Kalfa who was supposed to make sure everything is fine in Manisa Harem. I knew she was someone loyal to Hurrem and that thing should change really quick.

"Sultana, my name is Atiye Kalfa. Your chambers are ready and we made sure everything is perfect for you," she said bowing to me not even looking at me in the eyes. I have never seen this woman in my life.

I just nodded her and walked to my chambers which were the biggest one in Manisa. Katya took my Mehmed and Mihrişah together with us.

" Neslihan Sultan, what chambers I will be in? Will I be with you?" someone asked me and I turned around to see Şehzade Murad.

"No my Şehzade, I ordered them to prepare specially new chambers only for you," I said to him and smiled as he ran to hug me from happiness.

"Neslihan Sultan, we have to be afraid now while we are in Manisa that Sehzade Selim doesn't start to drink again. Last time when he was in Konya Sultan Suleiman surprised him with a visit, but Prince was so drunk and that made Sultan very disappointed," Gazanfer said as we sat in my new chambers to have a relax from this long trip to Manisa.

"I know, we will do whatever is needed to prohibit him from the alcohol. We have been for years in Istanbul and he didn't drink a lot, so I hope he won't here," I said and that was my biggest fear because I didn't want Selim to fall in Sultan's eyes. He and Bayezid were only princes left and his mother already supported Bayezid which wasn't good for us. He needed to do whatever is needed to stop his obsession with alcohol.

"We should take care that the merchants don't send alcohol to him, because they used to do it so they could get from Prince what they want," Gazanfer said to me.

"You will put our two loyal men in the service to make sure nothing of alcohol comes in this Palace, we never know when Hurrem Sultana or Sultan Suleiman will come here and we don't need Selim to be drunk in that moment," I said to him and that was my biggest fear.

"Nurbanu Sultana tried to prohibit alcohol from Prince Selim and that only got her far away from him, don't repeat the same mistake Sultana," Gazanfer said but I knew I won't repeat it. I am not like Nurbanu and I will do whatever I do for good of Selim and my children.

"I am not like Nurbanu and I don't like her, but that was her only good decision because if we want to see Selim one day on the throne he must stop drinking," I said.

"Şehzade won't listen to anyone, I don't know how you will do it but I hope it won't make you same fate as it did to Nurbanu," Gazanfer said and I still didn't trust him hundred percent because of all that happened before, but I had him on my eye. I needed a loyal servant and someone like him was good opportunity for me.

"We will see if he won't listen to me," I said before leaving the Harem to see Selim. I wanted to talk with him already the first day.

We might have travelled together but in different carriages. Murad and I went in one together with Mehmed and Mihrisah, while he went into another ones. Those were the rules as more princes shouldn't be in the same carriage because of threat if anything bad happens it wouldn't happen to more princes then and my Mehmed was still young to be alone.

I arrived in front of Selim's chambers where plenty of bottles were and aghas were carrying even more and more of them. I knew this was wine and I didn't know why they have bring this here immediately the first day. Sokollu Mehmed Pasha, one of Selim's loyal men was there and he looked at men who were carrying this and he didn't have very happy expression of his face.

"Sokollu, what is this supposed to mean? What should this wine do here when it is prohibited and prince shouldn't consume it as we all know," I said as I was angry on all of those people who carried this.

I didn't want Selim to have more problems than he already has. He didn't drink in Istanbul and it was the right decision and he shouldn't do it anymore because he will lose the Sultan's trust and this doesn't go in his favour.

"Sultanim, the merchants have sent this to our Şehzade. I didn't want to allow this in the palace, but they don't listen to me and I'm afraid of Sehzade's reaction," Sokollu said and I was glad we shared the opinion about this because this should go immediately away from Manisa Palace.

"Agha, don't put more wines here but instead send them away to the merchants and say to them Şehzade doesn't drink wine and they don't need to send this to him," I said and none of the aghas didn't want to look at me but were afraid. I had a cold tone of voice and in those situations it was better for me to them to listen to me.

"Sultanim, we can't send them away unless Sehzade orders us to do that," agha said still looking down at the floor being afraid to do anything.

"You will remove them immediately. Do how I told you," I said and Sokollu nodded to them and they started bring them away.

I entered Selim's chambers and I saw him reading some books and I looked at his desk more preciously to make sure there isn't any of the wine which made me happy.

"Why did you send all of those things away?" Selim asked me as he didn't even raise his look on me as he obviously has heard everything I have said outside. He didn't want to look at me and I didn't know he would react like this.

"Because I want to save you from your father's anger and those things in Palace will make you fail in his eyes," I said as I walked closer to him but he raised his hand and signalised me to stop as he gor up and walked closer to me.

He seemed to be angry on me, but even more disappointed which I have never seen on him because we never fought and he was never like this to me.

"I know the best what is good for me. Don't repeat Nurbanu's mistakes," he said seriously not wanting to be close to me.

"I won't repeat them, Selim. I want to help you now when you know your mother has a favourite who is not you, but Bayezid. You shouldn't make your father angry now because it won't do any well to you. Respect his rules and don't allow any wine in your palace and everything will be fine," I said trying to make him understand, but he seemed like he doesn't care.

"You can leave."
