"Abaad Raho" she said kissing her little daughter's forehead. Her expression changed as she leaned back and looked at her daughter.
"What's wrong with you??" she said furious, "Couldn’t you dress in a better way at least at the day of Eid?? You cannot walk around looking like a kaneez"
"But mother, I am fine like this" said the princess with a smile, "This dress is very dear to me. Nasir Bhaijaan brought it for me when he went to Lahore with father for political affair"

Her mother wasn’t very happy with the answer. She said with a passive aggressive tone

As the mother and daughter looked at the direction from which the voice came from, they saw the third wife of the emperor, Gulfam begum walking in.
"Just like the process of choosing the Badshah which prioritize the oldest son rather than the skilled ones" said the lady with a calm voice.

"My son Salim is very skilled as well, so don't worry" said Zinat Begum with a smile.
"So is Nasir and Ali" Gulfam begum replied.

"Shahenshah will do the right thing. It's in the hands of Shahenshah. We must wish for the best" said Jiji anga. She is one of the most trusted persons of the king. She's the one who raised Jalal after his mother's death.
