When Mirza Shah Rukh, Raja Bhagwan Das, and Shah Kuli Khan Mahram reached the pass of Bhuliyas, on the confines of Kashmir, Yusuf Khan, the ruler of that country, came up and blockaded the pass. The Imperial forces remained for some days inactive, snow and rain came on, and the supplies of corn were cut off. Moreover, the news of the defeat of Zain Khan arrived, and the army was in great difficulty. The amirs resolved to make peace. They settled a tribute to be paid by saffron, shawls, and by the mint to the royal treasury, and they appointed collectors. Yusuf was delighted with these terms, and came to visit the amirs, and they brought him along with them to see the Emperor. When they came to Court, the Emperor disapproved of the peace, and the amirs were forbidden his presence; but after some days they were allowed to make their obeisances. - [Previous: 80.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.80.7) - [Next: 81.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.81.2) - [Up: 81](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.81) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.81.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.81.1) · Pramāṇa
