He had not long been established, when in conjunction with a few nobles he rebelled. The other nobles of Guzerat, rising in arms, defeated him, and sent him prisoner to Dehly. Here he was not only pardoned, but regained his place in the King's favour, and Mullik Wujee-ood Deen Kooreishy was sent to Guzerat in his stead. About this time news arrived, that Mullik Beg Luky, governor of the Deccan, had rebelled. The King sent a force to suppress that insurrection; which contrived to seize Mullik Beg and his principal adherents, and to send them to Dehly, where the chief had his ears cut off, and the others were put to the torture. Mullik Ein-ool-Moolk Mooltany was now raised to the office of governor of the Deccan. Mullik Khoosrow, who had gone to Malabar, stayed there about one year. He plundered the country of one hundred and twenty elephants, a perfect diamond, weighing one hundred and sixty-eight ruttys, with other jewels, and gold to a great amount. His ambition was increased by his wealth; and he proposed to establish himself in the Deccan in an independent sovereignty. Being unable to gain over any of the chief officers of his army, he conceived a project for their destruction. To this end, he recalled one Mullik Tubligha from the government of the island of Goa. - [Previous: 38.2.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.38.2.2) - [Next: 38.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.38.2.4) - [Up: 38.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.38.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.38.2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.38.2.3) · Pramāṇa
