Ismail, in response to Selim’s letters, replies…

1513 CE

Ismail, in response to Selim’s letters, replies that he has no wish for war, adding that he thinks the letters had been written under the influence of opium; he also sends Selim's royal secretary a box of the drug.

As Selim is indeed an opium user, the gesture hits home.

Ismail’s daughter Princess Shahnavaz Begum, is wed before May 14, 1513 as the second wife of Prince Murad Effendi, elder son of Şehzade Ahmet, Crown Prince of Ottoman Empire, son of the late Bayezid II.
