### [1.6.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.6.7)

The Emperor was accompanied by twenty-two persons, among whom were Bairam Khan, Khwaja Mu'azzam, Babi Dost Bakhshi, Khwaja Ghazi, Haidar Muhammad Akhtar-begi, Mirza Kuli Beg, Shaikh Yusuf, Ibrahim Aishak-akasi, and Hasan 'Ali Beg Aishak-akasi. They set off without even determining their route. When they had gone a little way, they fell in with three or four Biluchis, who directed them, and they arrived with great toil at the fort of Baba Haji. The Turks who were in the place gave them such provisions as they had. Khwaja Jalalu-d din, son of Mahmud, who had been sent by Mirza 'Askari to collect the revenues of this district, waited upon the Emperor, and presented him with horses, camels, mules, and such things as he possessed. Next day Haji Muhammad Koki, who had escaped from Mirza 'Askari, waited upon the Emperor. The hostile proceedings of his brothers made these parts no safe place for His Majesty, so he proceeded onwards towards Khurasan and 'Irak. Upon entering Sistan, Ahmad Sultan Shamlu, governor of the province under Shah Tahmasp, received him with the greatest kindness. He remained some days in Sistan, and Ahmad Sultan showed him every kind of hospitality and attention, sending even his own women to wait upon the Empress as handmaids. Ahmad also presented to him all kinds of provisions and necessaries, and enrolled himself among the number of his slaves. All these His Majesty courteously accepted, and then presented them to him.
