Season 2
Versailles
Louis a tout pour être satisfait : son palais s’agrandit et suscite l’admiration du monde entier ; ses troupes se préparent à envahir la Hollande et à écraser Guillaume d’Orange, après que Fabien a sauvé le dauphin des griffes de Rohan. Pourtant, le roi reste hanté par des cauchemars, sa paranoïa augmente, tandis que son frère, Philippe, refuse de remettre les pieds à Versailles. Mais Louis trouve force et réconfort dans les bras de sa favorite, Mme de Montespan, enceinte de leur enfant, dont l'influence ne cesse de croître, au grand dam de l’entourage du roi, à commencer par la reine Marie-Thérèse. Pourtant Louis a raison d’avoir peur : les poisons se répandent à Versailles, les meurtres se multiplient, et les assassins demeurent introuvables…
