Shaikh Yūsuf escaped to Delhi. Bahlūl Lodī received him cordially, and promised to help him regain the throne. Many a time he tried to march to Multan but the Sharqī kings gave him no respite. Now, after four years of peace with Jaunpur when he had occupied Shamsābād without opposition, Bahlūl marched to Multan in compliance of his promise to the Shaikh. But he was mistaken, for while he was on his way, he was informed that Husain Sharqī had started for Delhi. Bahlūl immediately turned back to meet him.
