His first step on the stage of history occurred in boyhood when his eldest brother, Mohammad ‘Ali Mirza (Dowlat-shah), after having made an impertinent reply to Agha Mohammad Khan, had to be whisked away to safety, escorted by Mohammad Vali Mirza.

At age eleven, Mohammad Vali Mirza was nominated to the governorship of Semnan and Damghan. Barely four years later, in 1802, he accompanied his father to Khorasan as Vali or Beglerbegi to put an end to the siege and establish Qajar authority after the Shah had appeased the tribes and dissuaded the Khan of Khiva and his Turkoman allies from further forays into Khorasan.]...
