Mazarin S01E06 · Episode 6

Overview

As talks with Spain intensify, the path to peace becomes clear: Louis XIV must marry the Infanta Maria Theresa. Mazarin, fully aware of the diplomatic stakes, ends the royal romance. Despite the young king’s determination, state interests prevail. Marie Mancini is removed from court, in keeping with 17th‑century political practice where marriages sealed treaties. Their final meeting, restrained yet painful, marks the end of Louis’s youth. He accepts the weight of European monarchy, while Mazarin—ill but lucid—secures peace at the cost of the king’s personal happiness.
