In short, the aforesaid Qazi met the Imperial army on the banks of the river of Ludianah. Inasmuch as the Emperor's mind was enamoured of the Begam's seductions, the Qazi was refused access to the Emperor, and Mahabet Khan was ordered to imprison him. Soon after, Shah Jahan also with a large army encamped at Fatehpur, in the vicinity of Akbarabad (Agra). The Emperor marched back from Sirhind, and all the grandees and officers from different jagirs joined the Emperor, and before the Capital, Delhi, was reached, a numerous force collected. The vanguard of the Imperialists was entrusted to the command of 'Abdullah Khan, who was ordered to proceed one kroh in advance of the Imperial camp. But Shah Jahan, foreseeing the result, thought that if he engaged in fighting against such a numerous army, the result might prove disastrous. Consequently, together with the Khan Khanan and other officers, retiring by the right-side road, he marched 20 kroh northwards. - [Previous: 90.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.90.3) - [Next: 90.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.90.5) - [Up: 90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.90) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.90.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.east.riyaz-al-salatin~en-abdus-salam.90.4) · Pramāṇa
