 Maria de Medici
Not very bright, stubborn and growing obese, she was soon entirely under the influence of her unscrupulous Italian favourite, Concino Concini[?], who was created Marquis d'Ancre and Marshal of France[?].
However, in 1617 her son Louis XIII asserted his authority, ordering the assassination of the Concini, and exiled the Queen to the Chateau Blois.
In 1619 she escaped and headed a revolt, but was reconciled to her son through the mediation of Cardinal Richelieu, who then gained royal favour.

 JewishEncyclopedia.com - MONTALTO, FILOTHEO ELIAU (ELIJAH):
Having graduated as physician, he left his native country, where he was always exposed to the rigors of the Inquisition, and went to Italy.
In the latter city he made the acquaintance of Concino Concini, on whose recommendation he was invited by Maria de Medici to come as physician to the French court.
Montalto had declined many high positions in Italy—chief among them being that of successor to the renowned Mercurial in the University of Padua—because he feared that if he accepted them he would not be able to perform his religious obligations.

During Maria's regency(1610-1617), a man named Concino Concini (also recorded as Conchino Conchini, christian names said to be Cosimo-Jean Baptiste or possibly Carlo), said to be Maria's lover, climbed to the top of the power ladder in France receiving, among others, the title of marhall of France.
Because, if Concino was not "shooting blanks" as it was rudely stated previously, then he was.

 Cardinal Richelieu - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
Like Concini, the Bishop was one of the closest advisors of Louis XIII's mother, Marie de Médicis.
As a result, both Marie and Concini became the targets of intrigues at court; their most powerful enemy was Charles de Luynes.
In April 1617, in a plot arranged by Luynes, King Louis XIII ordered that Concini be arrested, and killed should he resist; Concini was consequently assassinated, and Marie de Médicis overthrown.

Contrast the favour enjoyed by Concino Concini and his wife (Léonora Galigaï) under the Regency of Marie de Médicis (1610-14) and even in the years after the king’s majority was declared (1614-17).
The alienation of the young king from Concini personally, and Luynes’s ascendancy over him, was the motivation in the coup d’état of April 1617 which resulted in Concini being killed while resisting arrest.
The political resistance to Concini’s regime, and a profoundly destabilizing force during the Regency, was provided by Henri de Bourbon, prince de Condé;, the first prince of the blood.

Borgia has made common cause with the Count de Luynes to get rid of Concini but, on finding that Leonora is married to Concini, now wants to extricate her from the impending disaster.

Louis was also angered by the fact that his mother had allowed a lady called Leonora Galigai — Marie’s favourite at court — to monopolise power within the Royal Court.
Galigai’s husband, Concino Concini, was equally as influential as his wife.
The treatment of Galigai and Concini had been an obvious statement of intent should any of the magnates wished to have challenged Luynes.

 End of the Renaissance
Maximilian Bethune, Duke of Sully and advisor to the late Henry resigned in 1611 and Maria de Medici handed the Regency to her cousin Concino Concini, the Italian Adventurer.
There were still rumours about the Cardinal's past, helpfully fomented in a subtle matter by the Order of the Holy Flame, but those who expressed them too openly soon found themselves in a curtained carriage riding into the Bastille and the ending of their lives.
One particularly nasty example of this was the case of the Marquis de St. Juste who had loudly announced to his companions and everyone else in the tavern that the Cardinal was a wizard who not only consorted with demons but had learned his magicks between the sheets with Concino Concini's well endowed wife.

Another cause of discontent was Marie's favor for two greedy foreigners, Leonora Galigai and her husband, Concino Concini.
Sharp divergences between the three orders, and royalist sentiment in the clergy and in the Third Estate, enabled her to exercise control.
A captain of the guards shot and killed Concini on the steps of the Louvre; the judges in the Parlement of Paris condemned Leonora as a witch, and she was beheaded.

Another possibility would be run a campaign set in 17th century Europe, mainly using roguish characters and have them accomplish realistic and exciting missions for or against Richelieu.
A storyline that can be used in either scenario would be the 1617 assassination of Concino Concini.
As agents of the State, your PCs could investigate the assassination to discover the true culprits or they could be the assassians as employed by either Louis or Richelieu.

 French History of the Bourbon Dynasty
Through Concini and the Regent, Italian representatives of the Roman Catholic Church hoped to force the suppression of Protestantism in France.
However, in 1617 her son Louis XIII, already several years into his legal majority, asserted his authority, ordering the assassination of Concini, and exiling the Queen to the Chateau Blois and Richelieu to his bishopric.
After two years of virtual imprisonment "in the wilderness" as she put it, she escaped from Blois in the night of 21/22 February 1619 and became the figurehead of a new aristocratic revolt headed by Gaston d'Orleans, which Louis' forces easily dispersed.
