But his progressive ideas are seen as dangerous by traditional Ottoman statesmen. 

A fierce political struggle broke out between his team and Zağanos and Şehabettin Pashas, who had raised Mehmed and were influential in the formation of his ideas. As a political maneuver, Mehmed marries and is caught in a love war in the harem. The rivalry between his first wife and new wife turns into an argument that can be used by his rivals in the political arena. When everything becomes complicated, Mehmed finds his new friend by his side.

Mehmed, who remains indifferent to the situation he is in, is subjected to an assassination attempt as he is about to march to Constantinople. It is revealed that his close friend is behind the assassination and that he was commissioned by the Byzantine emperor Constantine.
