With the return to Court, on the 11th Jamadi II. 1127 H. (13th June 1715), of Nizam-ul-mulk, after his supersession by Husain Ali Khan in the government of the Dakhin, the plots against the two brothers once more commenced. Nizam-ulmulk was angry at losing the Dakhin. This is betrayed by the fact that when he was on his march to Dihli, although Husain Ali Khan passed him at a distance of only a few miles, he failed to visit the latter. According to the customs of the country this was most disrespectful, Husain Ali Khan being his superior in rank. At Court Nizam-ul-mulk, who had been trained in the school of Alamgir, found it difficult to remain on good terms with the men in Farrukh-siyar's confidence, and when in Jamadi I. 1129 H. (April 1717), he was made faujdar of the Muradabad chakla, he elected to proceed there in person, instead of appointing a deputy.*
