Unlike his father, who tended to be angry and emotional, Beyazid II was a gentle and forgiving person. Although he had a personal grudge against the Stratocracy, he eventually forgave all Pashas from the Halil Faction after ascending the throne. Beyazid maintained the stratocracy divan system with a new model of Dîvân-ı Hümâyun, or Imperial Council. Pashas from the former Halil Faction even received important positions, one of which was to become a mentor or lala for his sons; Kundaracu Dawud served as lala for Sehzade Korkud. Orman Yusuf was lala for Sehzade Ahmed, and Gokhan was lala for Selim. Mimar Zeki, the youngest, was actually the closest person to the Sultan who was trusted in matters of construction and architecture and who worked together with Mimar Hayrettin.

However, especially for his son Selim (later known as Selim the Grim or Yavuz Sultan Selim), he did not accept his father's attitude. He dared to kill Gokhan through false accusations in Trebizond (Selim served as Beylerbey there) in 82 CTR because he still could not forgive the behavior of the Stratocracy towards his family. Clearly, any former Stratocracy faction did not dare to do anything, even including Zaganos and Mahmud themselves. except to only adjust to the policies of the sultan. Because in this early era there were no internal political factions of interest, after the birth of the Ottoman Empire, there were no more pro-war and anti-war factions (because all state policies entering this era were indeed intended for war), and there were no more pro-autocracy and pro-parliamentary factions (because the state itself was already an absolute monarchy). differences of opinion were limited to each individual who did not form a political faction. new factional divisions emerged along with the rise of the Safavid Empire, the threat of Shia, and the emergence of the crisis of the throne in Constantinople, at the end of the Bayazid II era. later most of the Halil faction died due to disease and age before the incident, Except Mahmud and Zaganos itself.

former Halil Faction who got the most important position in the era of Beyazid II. Most died before 87 CTR. due to disease and age factors (except for Gokhan, who died because of the conspiracy of Sehzade Yavuz Selim).
