When he sent the keys, Shahjahan forwarded a message for Aurangzeb that he must come to see him at once : he had business of very great importance to consult him upon. He hoped thus to get him into the harem and assassinate him. But Aurangzeb, sagacious, able, and quick-witted, only laughed at such words. He sent instead a trusty eunuch that Shahjahan had given him long before, called Atbarcan (I'tibar Khan). This man now succeeded in shutting up Shahjahan in his harem with Begam Sahib and the rest of the women, removing Roshan-ara Begam, the beloved sister of Aurangzeb, who was despatched with great pomp.
