Plot edit
First episode. King of England Charles II asks King of France Louis XIV to help establish himself on the throne. However, Louis refuses him under the influence of Cardinal Mazarin. D'Artagnan, together with Porthos, captures the enemy of Charles — General Monk. At the same time, Athos takes out a million gold pieces, which the King of England also needs to fulfill his goals.
The second series tells us more about Aramis, who by this time had become a general of the Jesuit Order and Bishop of Vannes. He, together with the son of Athos, Raul, conspires against Louis. Aramis wants to rescue the king's imprisoned twin brother in order to exchange one for the other.
