Under the guidance of his chief minister, Cardinal Richelieu, a plan is developed to remedy that situation. Once she is with child, Queen Anne goes into seclusion to guard her health and protect her from those who would prefer that the child is never born¾Frances foreign enemies as well as schemers such as Monsieur Gaston dOrleans, the Kings younger brother and heir.
