Hmmm...🤔in the serial Ruqs is not the historical Ruqs...now, don't you think it'd be too far fetched if Ruqs was ready to speak the truth to save the life of Jodha's slave girl (a begum she doesn't even like) and compromise her leadership of the harem, her position as Jalal's favourite and her power as Mallika-e-khaas!
Also, it'd be too far-fetched if Jalal had spent any more time and energy investigating into a matter of comparatively little significance when he's having to deal with uprisings, wars, rebellion and numerous other political matters involving hundreds of thousands of lives!😕
In fact many of us felt he'd shown more kindness than necessary when he personally went to visit Mothi in prison for the sake of final confession.
