Since ancient times, imperial power is supreme, in order to continue to inherit power, the emperor will never mind his wife to have one more, except for Emperor Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youfan with the practical action of "only marrying Empress Zhang in his lifetime" to practice equality between men and women, and no one emperor has always been as unswerving to a woman as he is. However, the absence of Chinese history does not mean that there is no foreign history, and the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan was a man who was consistent in love, and he only loved his wife and one woman all his life.
Ajman Banu was the lucky woman who was deeply loved by Shah Jahan. Ajman Banu was born in 1593 to an aristocratic family in Agra, his father was a major vassal of the Mughal Empire, and his aunt Nur Jahan was the first favorite concubine of Emperor Jahangir, and her family had absolute voice and influence throughout the dynasty. As the palm pearl of the family, Ajman Banu's body gathers the "courage" of her father and the "color" of her aunt, whether it is temperament or temperament, or the appearance of her skills, Ajman Banu is impeccable.
On nu's 15th birthday, Emperor Jahangir rewarded her with a sumptuous palace to thank the Ajman Banu family for their contributions to the country over the years. As Ajman Banu grew up, many princes and nobles proposed to her, hoping to bring their families closer together through marriage and occupy a higher voice in the empire. However, Ajman Banu was unmoved, her family was already a top family, and few men in the country deserved her.
Given Ajman Banu's family status, Jahangir betrothed her to her third son, Kulam, when she was 19 years old, and Ajman Banu admired the third prince without a shelf and married him. After marriage, Kulam and his wife have been fighting outside, they support each other, help each other, husband and wife hand in hand, leaving footprints of the two of them in every corner of the battlefield.
In 1628, Kulam succeeded to the throne as the fifth emperor of the Mughal Empire, with the title of "Shah Jahan". After Ajman Banu became queen, she also received a title that symbolized supreme glory, Taj Mahal. Shah Jahan once said that he would only marry Ajman Banu once in his life and would not be touched by other women, and this sincere expression made Ajiman Banu very moved. In order to leave heirs to her beloved, Ajman Banu gave birth to 14 children in the 18 years after her marriage, and the whole family lived very happily.
Unfortunately, during a conquest in 1631, Ajman Banu died of puerperal fever at the age of 39. After her death, Shah Jahan fell into infinite grief, and what he did was also touching, Shah Jahan no longer had the heart to love war, after ending the war early, he began to build a mausoleum belonging to Ajman Banu, Shah Jahan thought: Since his wife died in the turbulent war, then I will build a unique mausoleum for her, let her sleep forever, and no longer be disturbed by anyone.
In 1963, Shah Jahan began construction of the mausoleum in a large garden at the bend of the Yamuna River in northern India. The area is very empty, and whenever he misses his wife, he can see from the castle above. The overall material of the mausoleum is white marble, and it is inlaid with many precious stones, bringing together more than 20,000 masons from all over the world, and finally completed the world-renowned mausoleum - taj Mahal.
The Taj Mahal is not only a world-class great building, but also a testimony of the love between the two.
