### [83.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.83.4)

Before Sultan Mahmud Khan arrived at years of discretion, the Amirs of Moghulistan (as I have recorded) had behaved rudely and disrespectfully to Yunus Khan. By the time Sultan Mahmud Khan was grown up, most of these Moghul Amirs were dead. Yunus Khan, with the help of his son Sultan Mahmud Khan, obtained complete ascendency and control over the Moghuls, and over those of their Amirs who were still alive. On the occasion of Yunus Khan being defeated before Yarkand and retiring to Kashghar, he was not accompanied by Sultan Mahmud Khan ; for Mahmud remained behind in Moghulistan, to keep the people in order. Yunus Khan, both to quiet the apprehensions of Muhammad Haidar Mirza, and for his own pleasure, spent that winter in Aksu. They sent the son of Muhammad Haidar Mirza, Muhammad Husain Mirza, who was then twelve years of age, to Sultan Mahmud Khan, with whom he became very friendly ; the two remained on good terms, and used to call each other "Dast" \[friend\]. Muhammad Husain Mirza stayed in Moghulistan with Sultan Mahmud Khan, and was treated with great honour and respect.
