They resolved that Rajah Jai Singh should go at once to the tents of Sulaiman Shukoh, where he was awaited with great impatience. The prince had already heard the news of the defeat of his father, Dara. At the interview Jai Singh disclosed to him clearly all that was going on, and showed him the letter received from Aurangzeb. He veiled under this letter and the orders of Aurangzeb the revenge he wanted to obtain on Dara for having called him a 'musician.' He (Jai Singh) pointed out the danger Sulaiman Shukoh was in; that there was no remedy; that he could not rely on the larger number of his officers, for nearly all were traitors. He (Jai Singh) gave the advice that, with all expedition, he should flee into the mountains of Sirinagar (Srinagar), of which I have spoken earlier (I. 147). This was the best and safest place for him to select, being a very secure refuge. There the rajah would receive him willingly, and thence he could watch the course of events without fear of Aurangzeb. - [Previous: 65.24.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.24.10) - [Next: 65.25.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.2) - [Up: 65.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.25.1) · Pramāṇa
