Jalal frowns, stepping down from the platform. "I sent no one, Jodha. I have been reviewing these documents since dawn."
"Someone wishes to see you humiliated," Jalal says, his voice low and dangerous. "But they forget that you are the Empress of Hindustan. You do not need a summons to stand by my side."
The climax of the episode features an intense debate over legal precedent. While advisors argue that challenging centuries-old customs could destabilize the public, Jalal counters by citing historical reforms made by past rulers like Alauddin Khalji and Sher Shah Suri. Convinced by Jodha's empathy and his own findings, Jalal orders the drafting of a new law prohibiting the marriage of minors, cementing his evolution from a ruthless conqueror into a just ruler.
