He entered the royal tent, but on seeing him, Aurangzeb prevented his approach by saying at once with simulated joy : 'Shah 'Alam, Bahadur ! Retire into the privy chamber and take council with my ministers as to what has to be done ; they await you.' Hardly had the prince reached the designated room, when Shahab-ud-din Khan and Asad Khan, accompanied by the other ministers, told him it was the order of the Badshah (that is, 'emperor'), Aurangzeb the Great, that he deliver up his arms. He knew well it was useless to resist ; undoing his sword and pulling his kattari (dagger) from his waist, he let the whole fall to the ground. While Shah 'Alam went into the inner room, Aurangzeb sent for Sultan Mu'izz-ud-din, eldest son of Shah 'Alam, as I said above, and he, believing it to be a fortunate day, appointed for the distribution of robes of honour, came with great delight, but hardly had he entered the presence of that schemer than he was treated the same as his father. Before he could get close Aurangzeb said to his grandson, with haste, as if relying on his judgment: 'Sultan Mu'izz-ud-din ! Go into that adjoining chamber, where your father and the ministers are waiting for you to hold a council and decide what ought to be done.' - [Previous: 192.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.192.3) - [Next: 192.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.192.5) - [Up: 192](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.192) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.192.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.192.4) · Pramāṇa
