While the Emperor was engaged in the Kabul campaign, Bahadur 'Ali, son of Saiyid Badakhshi entered the country of Tirhut, and gave himself the title of Bahadur Shah; but he was taken prisoner and killed by the men of Khan-i 'azam. Ma'sum Khan Farankhudi, being in great distress and anxiety in the Siwalik hills, begged forgiveness for his offences through Khan-i 'azam; and in consequence of the Khan's intercession he was pardoned. Then he waited upon Khan-i 'azam in humble guise, and was afterwards admitted to an interview with the Emperor at Fathpur. When the Emperor was waited upon at Kabul by the confidential servants of Mirza Muhammad Hakim, he made inquiry into the case of Khwaja Shah Mansur, and it appeared that Karmu-lla, brother of Shahbaz, had colluded with others to concoct letters, and that he had forged the last letter on the evidence of which Khwaja Mansur was executed. After this was discovered, the Emperor often regretted the execution of the Khwaja. He now remained for some time at Fathpur, administering justice, dispensing charity, and arranging public business. On the 19th Muharram, 990 H., Khan-i 'azam, governor of Hajipur and Patna, came to wait upon the Emperor, and to give an account of the affairs of Bengal. After staying several days, he was sent back to Bengal, and several nobles and soldiers who had been to Kabul were sent with him.
