And yet, from the side where the queens were, no one had heard what he had said, nor understood what he had done. A charitable friend, however, took upon herself to spread the news; it was Tonnay-Charente, to whom Madame had made a sign to approach. "Good heavens!" explained Tonnay-Charente, "how happy that La Valliere is! the king has just given her the bracelets."
Madame, already informed, is writing the letter which she is good enough to do me the honor of intrusting to me. In the meantime, learning from Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente that it was likely you would be in this direction, I came here, and am happy to find you both." "And both of us very sad, as you see," said Montalais, going to Louise's assistance, whose countenance was visibly altered.
Would some one else be jealous, in such a case?" "Oh! sire, Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente is a very efficacious remedy," said Madame, with a sigh. "She would cure a jealous man, certainly; but she might possibly make a woman jealous, too." "Henrietta," exclaimed Louis, "you fill my heart with joy. Yes, yes; Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente is far too beautiful to serve as a cloak."
A young, fair-complexioned girl, from twenty to one-and-twenty years of age, and whose large blue eyes flashed, as she opened them, in the most dazzling manner, walked at the head of the band and was the first presented. "Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente," said Madame de Navailles to Monsieur, who, as he saluted his wife, repeated "Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente."
I have never seen a finer color to match with black eyes and a coral mouth." "So much the better for M. de Bragelonne," said Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente, with persistent malice. "He will make amends for his loss. Poor fellow!" A profound silence followed these words; and D'Artagnan had time to observe and reflect that women mild doves treat each other more cruelly than tigers.
The artful little puss kept her secret strictly to herself, when suddenly it proved stronger than herself, and so escaped her." "And from whom did you get this absurd tale?" "Why, as everybody else did, from La Valliere herself, who confessed her love to Montalais and Tonnay-Charente, who were her companions." Madame stopped suddenly, and by a hasty movement let go her husband's hand.
I beg your pardon, I mean Mademoiselle Aure de Montalais?" "Precisely as you have stated, Madame," articulated Mademoiselle de Montalais, very distinctly. "Is it true, Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente?" "The perfect truth," replied Athenais, in a voice quite as firm, but not yet so distinct. "And you, La Valliere?" asked Madame.
The circumstance which had given a new expansion to the numerous ideas germinating in his fertile brain was, that he had just perceived that Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente was, like himself, dressed in rose-color.
"In that case, the intended was M. de Montespan; but Mademoiselle de Tonnay-Charente did not speak of it, it seemed to me, in such a manner as would frighten suitors away." "At all events," said the king, "I know nothing, or almost nothing, about Mademoiselle de la Valliere. Saint-Aignan, I rely upon you to procure me every information about her."
"In very truth," said he, "I can say that there has been no such great change in Mademoiselle Tonnay-Charente either. But still it is best that we should part, Francoise." "If it will add aught to your happiness, sire, I shall go through it, be it to my death." "Now that is the proper spirit."
