Cardinal Mazarin demands from Anne of Austria to reveal to him the names of four friends who once helped her in the confrontation against Cardinal Richelieu.

The Queen reveals the name of D'Artagnan, lieutenant of the royal musketeers.

The cardinal calls the musketeer and orders him to find Athos, Porthos and Aramis in order to recruit them. However, only Porthos, who became a wealthy landowner du Vallon, agrees to join D'Artagnan. Athos and Aramis are on the side of the Fronde, hostile to the cardinal and led by the Duke of Beaufort, imprisoned in the Château de Vincennes.

The convergence of old friends, separated by political intrigues, occurs when Mordaunt, the son of Lady Winter, decides to take revenge on the Musketeers for the death of his mother.

Four friends get involved with him, as well as with Mr. de Jussac, their old enemy, who joined Mordaunt, in the fight.
