Among the options provided, Gulbadan Begum is the lady who wrote a historical account during the Mughal period.

Gulbadan Begum was the daughter of Emperor Babur and the sister of Emperor Humayun. She is known for writing the historical account titled "Humayun-nama" (The Book of Humayun). This book provides insights into the life and reign of her brother, Emperor Humayun, and offers valuable historical information about the Mughal Empire during that period.

Nurjahan Begum, Jahanara Begum, and Zebunnissa Begum were notable women during the Mughal period, but they are not known for writing historical accounts.

Therefore, the correct answer is: Gulbadan Begum.
