# Siyar al-mutaʾakhkhirin 4.3.3

### [4.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.later.siyar-al-mutaakhkhirin~en-mustafa.4.3.3)

Meanwhile, the army which pushed forward towards Hindostan, had been overtaken by the rainy season ; and it was at such a time as this, that the Minister thought proper to bestow the Government of G8drat on Ghazi-eddin-khan, who enjoyed already that of Barar, to which he had been appointed by Aoreng-zib; but such was the feebleness of the Ministry, and such the contempt into which their administration had fallen, that the new Governor set out without leave, and even without waiting on the Emperor. This insolence of his having been passed over, encouraged the two dispossessed Gentoo Princes, who lived at Court, to take the same liberties. These were Radja Djehising-ketchoa, and Adjet-sing-rhator: they both quitted the Court without leave, and having crossed the Nerbedda, they returned to their own country, where having ejected with a great deal of fighting and slaughter, the Imperial Officers established themselves in their fortresses; they retook possession of them, and reinstated themselves in their own dominions. So much presumption had at last roused the Emperor. He crossed the Nerbedda with intention to chastise the Gentoo Princes, who had so far availed themselves of their distance from court, and the inattention of the times, that they had given battle to the three Seid brothers, Ahmed-khan, Hossein-khan and Ghairct-khan, who had been all three slain, and all three had on the same day received the palm of martyrdom.
