 Louis VII
Louis VII led a half-hearted war against Henry for having married without the authorization of his suzerain; but in August 1154 gave up his rights over Aquitaine, and contented himself with an indemnity.
In 1154 Louis married Constance, daughter of the king of Castile, and their daughter Marguerite he affianced imprudently by the treaty of Gisors (1158) to Henry, eldest son of the king of England, promising as dowry the Vexin and Gisors.
Five weeks after the death of Constance, on the 4th of October 1160, Louis VII married Adèle of Champagne, and Henry II to counterbalance the aid this would give the king of France, had the marriage of their infant children celebrated at once.
