Tuhia he haere tonu mō tēnei wāhanga - I whakapā atu a Breteuil ki ngā mema pūmau o te porowhita o te kuini i te tau 1789. I whakaae ia ki te noho hei Pirimia i te wa i whakakahoretia ai a Jacques Necker mai i te tūranga. He rongonui a Necker, engari i kite nga rangatira i a ia he tangata whai-korero kino, he tangata whakahirahira hoki. He mahere āta whakarite i hangaia e Breteuil, te Duchesse de Polignac, te teina o te Kingi te Count d'Artois me te tautoko a Marie-Antoinette. Heoi, kaore i taea e ia te aukati i tona mauahara ki a Necker, i tere haere te Count d'Artois me te mahere i te wa wawe. I whakakorehia a Necker i nga wiki i mua i te whakaaro a Breteuil kia whakakorehia ia. I tohua a Breteuil hei Pirimia i te 12 o Hurae 1789. He hua o te whakakorenga a Necker, i whakaekehia te Bastille
i te 14 o Hurae.
