Can you tell me what has become of my friend Chicot?" Chicot made a grimace. "Oh," said the king, "he is your friend." Quelus and Maugiron burst out laughing. "He is handsome and respectable," continued the king. "It is Gorenflot, of whom M. de Morvilliers spoke to you." "The incendiary of St. Genevieve?" "Himself!" "Then I will have him hanged!" "Impossible!" "Why?" "He has no neck."
M. de Morvilliers had just bent over the king to whisper his communication, when a great clamor was heard in the court of the Louvre. The king jumped up, but Chicot, running to the window, called out, "It is M. de Guise entering the Louvre." "The Duc de Guise," stammered the Duc d'Anjou. "How strange that he should be in Paris," said the king, reading the truth in M. de Morvilliers' look.
In conclusion, Philip promised to deliver up Rubempré to the king were his innocence satisfactorily proven. Morvilliers then resumed his discourse, enlarging upon the treacherous designs of Francis, Duke of Brittany, with whom Charles had lately sworn brotherhood at the very moment when he was the honoured guest of King Louis at Tours.
The French army engaged was annihilated. Marshal de Thermes, with a wound in the head, Senarpont, Annibault, Villefon, Morvilliers, Chanlis, and many others of high rank were prisoners. The French monarch had not much heart to set about the organization of another army; a task which he was now compelled to undertake.
The king then took the seals out of his hands, and having put them himself to the instrument of remission, returned them immediately to Morvilliers, who refused to take them again, saying, "The seals have twice put me in a situation of great honour: once when I received them, and again when I resigned them."
"One hundred and sixty thousand livres." Chicot turned to the king, saying, "If you like, for one thousand crowns, I will tell you all the secrets of M. de Morvilliers." "Speak." "It is simply the League, instituted ten years ago; M. de Morvilliers has discovered what every Parisian knows as well as his ave." "Monsieur," interrupted the chancellor.

They consecrate a king at Paris before thirty-three people, in the church of St. Genevieve, and you do not know of it!" "Oh! and you do?" "Certainly I do." "How can you know what I do not?" "Ah! because M. de Morvilliers manages your police, and I am my own." The king frowned.

Chicot, seated at the head of the table, was making paper boats, and arranging them in a fleet. M. de Morvilliers was announced, and came in, looking grave. "Am I," said he, "before your majesty's council?" "Yes, before my best friends; speak freely." "Well, sire, I have a terrible plot to denounce to your majesty." "A plot!" cried all. "Yes, your majesty." "Oh, is it a Spanish plot?"
