On reaching Uch I was received by Shah Baz Mirza, who was also mentioned in the lists at Kashghar. After leaving Uch, I was met \[istikbál\] by all the men of Aiman Khwája Sultán, who sent a message to me asking : "What has happened? How would it be for us, having set aside all considerations of relationship, to meet \[in consultation\] ?" But I would not consent \[to an interview\] and said: "As there is nothing to be gained by an interview, it is not worth while to have one." I then sent a person to \[the Sultan\] with all the necessary provisions for a journey, and also some trusty men to accompany him. \[After that I set myself\] to encourage the soldiers and populace \[of Aksu\] and to settle their affairs in the most profitable manner ; I passed the necessary orders to the old servants of Rashid Sultan, and arranged the government of the province by dividing it equally into villages and districts. Thus all the people were reassured. I stayed there six months. Rashid Sultán was satisfied with all that was done, and there grew up between us the strongest attachment. During my sojourn, we were never apart for a moment. There was not the slightest disagreement between us. All that he did was pleasing in my sight ; and all that I performed met with his approval. Whatever I had suffered in being separated from my old friends, that is to say, Shah Muhammad Sultan and Baba Sultan, was atoned for in my friendship with Rashid Sultan. - [Previous: 202.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.202.6) - [Next: 202.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.202.8) - [Up: 202](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.202) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.202.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.202.7) · Pramāṇa
