La première partie du feuilleton est parue dans Le Petit Journal du 7 mars 1868 au 31 juillet puis la seconde partie est publiée dans le quotidien de Moïse Polydore Millaud du 7 août au 3 décembre 1868.

Au bout de vingt-cinq années d'efforts opiniâtres, ils disposent d'une mine de renseignements suffisamment fournie pour mettre enfin à exécution leur plan machiavélique. Autour de ces passions humaines si banales que sont l'amour, l'ambition et l'argent, les très nombreux personnages de l'intrigue tourbillonnent sans se rendre compte du piège tendu qui se referme inexorablement.

Il est toujours bon de consulter les hommes speciaux. Aussi, avant de livrer ce volume a mon imprimeur, j'ai cru devoir soumettre le manuscrit a un de mes amis, sous-chef dans une de nos administrations publiques. Huit jours apres, il me retournait mon livre avec le billet suivant: Je ne sais en verite, mon cher, ou vous avez puise vos renseignements. Vos personnages n'ont pas la moindre vraisemblance."

Trois femmes, à elles seules, résument et personnifient le long règne de Louis XIV, ce règne aux fortunes si diverses. La différence de leurs passions, de leur humeur, de leurs goûts, explique et symbolise les changements de politique du monarque. Comme trois génies, elles président aux trois grandes phases de l'existence du roi-soleil. La Vallière, l'humble, la timide, la dévouée, c'est l'amour, la poésie, la jeunesse; elle inspire les idées qui peuvent paraître généreuses et chevaleresques. Le soleil se lève, l'horizon se colore de lueurs splendides, on dirait l'aurore d'un grand règne.

C'est en vain que des Ternes à Belleville, tout le long des boulevards extérieurs, on eût cherché un café mieux achalandé et d'un meilleur renom que le café de Périclès. Les plus fameux estaminets de ces parages, l'Épinette, la Nouvelle-Athènes et même le Rat-Mort ne venaient que bien après. D'un quart de lieue, le soir, on voyait resplendir ses becs de gaz au plus bel endroit du boulevard Clichy, presqu'en face de la place Pigalle. C'est vers 1865 qu'il fut fondé, au rez-de-chaussée d'une maison neuve, par un certain Justus Putzenhofer, Prussien de naissance, qu'attiraient à Paris, prétendait-il, l'espérance de faire fortune et sa grande amitié pour les Français.

L'aube du 1er novembre 1871 se levait pâle et glacée, blanchissant le faîte des toits. Une lueur livide et furtive glissait, comme au fond d'un puits, le long des murs humides de l'étroite cour de l'Hôtel des Folies. Déjà montaient ces rumeurs confuses qui annoncent le réveil de Paris, dominées par le roulement sonore des voitures de laitiers, par le fracas des portes brutalement refermées, par le claquement clair des pas hâtifs sur le bitume des trottoirs.

Dans la nuit du 22 au 23 juin 1871, vers une heure, le faubourg de Paris, qui est le principal et le plus populeux faubourg de la jolie ville de Sauveterre, fut mis en émoi par le galop frénétique d'un cheval sonnant sur les pavés pointus. Quantité de bourgeois se précipitèrent à leurs fenêtres. Ils ne virent dans la nuit sombre qu'un paysan en bras de chemise et la tête nue, talonnant et bâtonnant furieusement une grosse jument blanche qu'il montait à cru. Ce paysan, après avoir longé le faubourg, prit à droite la rue Nationale-rue Impériale jadis-, traversa la place du Marché-Neuf, tourna la rue Mautrec et s'arrêta court devant la belle maison qui fait l'angle de la rue du Château. C'est là qu'habite le maire de Sauveterre, M. Séneschal, ancien avoué, membre du conseil général.

C'était le mercredi 15 novembre de l'an de grâce 1665. Ce soir-là, il y avait petit souper et grande compagnie, rue Vieille-du-Temple, chez La Vienne, le baigneur à la mode, l'étuviste en renom, le barbier du monde élégant. Les Parisiens du temps présent, qui s'imaginent avoir atteint jusqu'au dernières limites de la civilisation et du confort, parce qu'ils ont créé des tavernes et certains autres docks de la galanterie à bon marché, auront sans doute besoin que nous leur expliquions ce que l'on entendait par barbier, par étuviste et par baigneur, dans la première moitié du règne de Louis XIV.

C'était le 15 octobre, un jeudi soir. Il n'était que six heures et demie, mais depuis longtemps déjà la nuit était venue. Il faisait froid, le ciel était noir comme de l'encre, la vent soufflait en tempête, il pleuvait. Les domestiques de l'hôtel de Chalusse, un des plus magnifiques de la rue de Courcelles, étaient réunis chez le concierge, lequel occupait, avec son épouse, un pavillon de deux pièces, à droite de la vaste cour sablée. A l'hôtel de Chalusse, comme dans toutes les grandes maisons, le concierge, M. Bourigeau, était un personnage d'une importance exceptionnelle, toujours prêt à faire sentir cruellement son autorité à qui eût osé seulement la mettre en doute. A le voir on reconnaissait le serviteur qui tient au bout de son cordon le plaisir et la liberté de tous les autres, celui qui favorise les sorties défendues par le maître, celui qui peut cacher, si telle est sa volonté, les rentrées mystérieuses, la nuit, après la fermeture du bal public ou de l'estaminet.

Vainement on chercherait dans Paris une rue plus paisible que la rue Saint-Gilles, au Marais, à deux pas de la place Royale. Là, pas de voitures, jamais de foule. À peine le silence y est rompu par les sonneries réglementaires de la caserne des Minimes, par les cloches de l'église Saint-Louis ou par les clameurs joyeuses des élèves de l'institution Massin à l'heure des récréations.
