Prince Alaaddin's unexpected death prompts Murad Khan to retreat to Bursa, succeeded by his son Mehmed. Despite being perceived as immature by European states, Mehmed proves otherwise when faced with Orhan, backed by Byzantium, in his first major battle for the throne. Mehmed's dream is to conquer Constantinople, despite doubts from those around him, including Çandarlı. Mehmed's determination leads to clashes with rebels, orchestrated by Çandarlı, resulting in his exile. However, Mehmed remains resolute, destined to return as sultan one day.
Bölüm 2
Mehmed, having left the throne to his father Murad, returns to Saruhan to address local issues, including pirates obstructing trade. Solving this would fulfill the people's wishes and address a personal problem for Mehmed. The Venetians complain about Mehmed to Murad, and Çandarlı presents evidence against him, prompting Sultan Murad to summon Mehmed to account for his actions. Mehmed must either face the Sultan with Bali Beys or capture the pirate leader, Capello, to clear his name. In the harem, Mehmed's summons worries Hüma but pleases Halime. Mara plots to eliminate rivals for Mehmed by ensuring Ahmed's disappearance. The reactions of Hüma and any counter plans from Halime add to the intrigue.

With the Crusaders advancing, Mehmed proposed an Oghuz Union, which Çandarlı opposed. The council awaited Murad's decision. Following Murad's orders, Mehmed found Wallachians escaping from Janosh and planned an attack with their help. Janosh, however, also strategized against the Ottomans, leading to uncertainty about the outcome. Prince Ahmed choked on roasted chickpeas, witnessed only by Hüma and her apprentice Çeşmidil. Hüma faced a dilemma of whether to intervene or not, creating potential tension in the palace, especially with Halime.

Constantine plans to hinder Mehmed, favoring Orhan's ascension. Orhan, closer to Edirne and with a better chance at the throne, rejects Konstantinos' offer for help, knowing it would not be welcomed. He faces an unexpected obstacle, Bali Bey, whose intentions remain unclear.
