When this latter came to Akhsi, the Khán was brought before him. Jáni Beg Sultán recommended him to the favour of Sháhi Beg Khán, who received him with compassion, kept him in his fatherly care, and denied him nothing. He, moreover, took the Khán with him on the expedition in which he conquered Hisár and Kunduz. I have heard the Khán relate, in terms of wonder and admiration, that when Sháhi Beg Khán had conquered Hisár, news was brought of the taking of Kunduz by Mahmud Sultán. Sháhi Beg Khán, having entrusted Hisár to Hamza Sultán and Chaghánián to Mahdi Sultan, set out quietly on his return. "As the pass of Darband-i-Ahanin \[The Iron Gate\] was very difficult \[continued the Khan\], and as the army was much burdened with booty, they made the journey, farsakh after farsakh, by way of Buya and Tirmiz. While the victorious army was encamped at Buya, I was sitting once, at midday, in the royal tent \[majlis\]. The hour for the assembly had not yet arrived, and only a few of the king's intimates were present, when somebody with a terrified countenance and wild appearance came in great haste, and laid a letter at the foot of the royal throne. As \[Shahi Beg\] perused the contents of this letter a great change came over him, and before he had finished reading it, he rose up and went in to his haram, giving orders for his horse to be brought. - [Previous: 112.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.112.1.2) - [Next: 112.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.112.1.4) - [Up: 112.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.112.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.112.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.112.1.3) · Pramāṇa
