It should also be noticed that Lauzun, who was also imprisoned in Pignerol, and to whom Fouquet could have revealed the secret of "Dauger" during secret nocturnal conversations, was "spared" and released in 1681.Pagnol specifies that Lauzun remained under very close surveillance when released: he was required to stay in the provinces under the custody of a certain Mr de Maupertuis, captain of the musketeers and Saint-Mars's friend. Pagnol is apparently uncertain of what he knew (or did not know).Pagnol writes : "Fouquet certainly spoke to him about it [to Lauzun, about the mysterious prisoner], without revealing the secret to him, as he knew he was too talkative."
