A little more than a month after this apparent reconciliation, Nizam-ul-mulk made the pretext that in the cold season his health suffered from the climate of Dihli, and asked for leave to proceed on a hunting excursion to his jagirs in Sambhal and Muradabad. His audience of leave-taking was given on the 17th December 1723, and on the 22nd he crossed the Jamuna and encamped near the river bank. Here the Emperor paid him a visit, and he lingered in the vicinity in the hope of some terms being arranged through the good offices of the Rajah Gujar Mal Saksena, diwan of the Khalsa.
