One day it happened that this man was going to the court of the princess, her mansion being outside the fortress. On the way he encountered Mahabat Khan, who was proceeding to the royal audience-hall. When passing each other in the street, their respective retinues had a slight dispute. As Mahabat Khan recognised the standards as those of Dulera, he ordered his own to be furled, and went on to court without them. Information of this was given to Shahjahan, and he asked him for what reason he had come to court without his usual insignia. Mahabat Khan responded most humbly \[150\] that his time had passed by now that musicians had begun to carry standards. The king investigated the matter, and sent orders for the flags of Dulera the musician to be destroyed. Mahabat Khan did this on purpose, not being on good terms with Prince Dara, and hoped by what he had done to vex the princess, knowing that he would at the same time annoy Dara. - [Previous: 65.9.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.9.5) - [Next: 65.9.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.9.7) - [Up: 65.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.9.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.9.6) · Pramāṇa
