v5.c74.s14.3

When the wazir reached Sagar on his way to the Court, he received an order to stop there* and send the prince alone to the Emperor at Galgala. Kam Bakhsh arrived there on 11th June and was presented to his father in the harem through the intercession of his sister Zinat-un-nissa. [M. A. 359.] Here the spoilt child tried to justify his late conduct by charging Zulfiqar with treachery and the collusive prolongation of the siege for enriching himself. Aurangzib was too experienced a soldier and too good a judge of men, to credit Kam Bakhsh's words. [Dil. 112a.]
