Louis' mistress Madame De Montespan
·���鸾�¡�����˹�˷���
was already married,
��Ϊ�˸�
but that didn't stop herspendingmost of her time with the King.
������δ�����Զ����
And he made sure she got the VIP treatment.
·��Ҳȷ�����ܵ���ߴ���
She had a suite of 20 rooms
��ӵ��һ��20���ҵ���
whereas the Queen had to make do with 11.
���ʺ��������11������
They were gorgeouslyappointed,
��Щ������辫��
and he spent a lot of time in them.
����������������
They included a bathroom - most unusual for the time,
�����е�ʱ���ر��ԡ��
in which apparently he and Madame De Montespan
��������Ȼ������������˹�˷���
spent many happy hours.
�ȹ���������ʱ��
Despite her elevated status,
��������˹�˷��˵�λ���
Montespan found it hard to share Louis,
�����������˹���·��
even with his own wife.
��ʹ������
I don't think she was really jealous of the Queen
��������ʵ������������
because after all she had everything
��Ϊ �������
of Louis' real love, and she knew it.
�Լ��Ͼ��Ѽ���ǧ�谮��һ��
But I think she made scenes about the other mistresses,
������ʱ������
when they came along as the years passed.
����������������鸾���۲���
And I think there are some men - possibly Louis among them -
��Щ���� ����·��
who rather like it if a woman is jealous and shows signs of caring.

You know, she certainlycomplainedlike mad
��ʹ·������֮��
if she felt he was straying
���������Ĺ�ϵ��������
from what was in fact an illegitimate relationship.
