He soon after engaged in the siege of the fort of Byana; but hearing that the King his master had taken the route of Hindoostan, Kootb-ood-Deen went as far as Hansy to meet him. Both now returned to Byana; which place was taken. Mahomed Ghoory gave charge of it to Baha-ood-Deen Toghrool, one of his trusty slaves, and then proceeded to Gualiar, where the Raja, having agreed to pay tribute, purchased the forbearance of the King for the time with a considerable sum of money and jewels. Immediately after these transactions Mahomed Ghoory returned to Ghizny, leaving Kootb-ood-Deen as before, viceroy of all the conquered provinces of India. - [Previous: 24.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.24.7) - [Next: 24.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.24.9) - [Up: 24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.24) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.24.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.24.8) · Pramāṇa
