Milady de Winter, often referred to as simply Milady, is a fictional character in the novel The Three Musketeers (1844) by Alexandre Dumas, père, set in 1625 France. She is a spy for Cardinal Richelieu and is one of the dominant antagonists of the story. Her role in the first part is to seduce the English minister, the Duke of Buckingham, who is also the secret lover of Queen Anne of France. Hoping to blackmail the Queen, Richelieu orders Milady to steal two diamonds from a set of matched studs given to Buckingham by the Queen, which were a gift to her from her husband, King Louis XIII. Thwarted by d'Artagnan and the other musketeers, Milady's opposition of d'Artagnan carries much of the second half of the novel.Best films

In 1625 France, a poor young nobleman named d'Artagnan leaves his parents in Gascony and travels to Paris to join the Musketeers of the Guard. At an inn in Meung-sur-Loire, an older man derides d'Artagnan's horse. Insulted, d'Artagnan demands a duel with him. The older man's companions beat d'Artagnan unconscious with a cooking pot and a metal tong that breaks his sword. His letter of introduction to Monsieur de Tréville, the commander of the Musketeers, is stolen. D'Artagnan resolves to avenge himself upon the man (later revealed to him as Comte de Rochefort, an agent of Cardinal Richelieu, who is in Meung to pass orders from the Cardinal to Milady de Winter, another of his agents).

D'Artagnan is pursued by Gérard and his brothers, who accuse him of blemishing their sister's honor.

In France during the mid-17th century, Cardinal Richelieu receives a visit from the despicably charming young woman, Milady de Winter. Milady brings the Cardinal information regarding the notorious affair between the queen of France and the English Duke of Buckingham. Outside their window, the queen's seamstress, Constance Bonacieux, stands watching the conversation between the two characters, when she is attacked by Rochefort, one of the Cardinal's loyal men. She is rescued by the young musketeer d'Artagnan and taken away to his abode, where Constance briefly explains her troubles and asks for d'Artagnan's help. Cardinal Richelieu, wanting to convince King Louis XIII that his wife, the queen, is unfaithful to him and in love with the Duke of Buckingham, suggests that he should ask his wife to wear the diamonds he had given her for an upcoming ball. The queen, shocked and dismayed, confesses to Constance that she had sent the diamonds to the Duke of Buckingham, and her confidant goes to d'Artagnan for help. With the help of his companions, three of the finest musketeers in France, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, d'Artagnan makes his way to England to seek the Duke himself, so that he may recover the diamonds and restore the queen's honor. Still, when all problems seem overcome, the English Duke of Buckingham plans to invade France, remove King Louis XIII and marry the queen; on the other hand, Cardinal Richelieu and Milady want revenge on d'Artagnan and Buckingham. Milady orders Rochefort to kidnap Constance Bonacieux, and when d'Artagnan learns this he sets off to rescue her. Milady is captured by Buckingham, and orders Felton to guard her. Felton falls in love with Milady; she seduces him and asks him to murder the Duke, which he does. Though she believes herself safe at a convent, Constance receives a visit from her supposed benefactor, Milady de Winter, who poisons her; d'Artagnan arrives at the scene and she dies in his arms. Together with Athos, Porthos and Aramis, d'Artagnan corners Milady and she is captured and sentenced to die for her crimes; Milady is then revealed to be Athos' own wife. The villains defeated and the country's honor restored, the four companions return to their homeland mourning the lives lost but cheering for their triumphs.

The young d'Artagnan arrives in Paris with dreams of becoming a king's musketeer. Quite unused to the city life, he makes a number of clumsy faux-pas. First he finds himself insulted, knocked out and robbed by the Comte de Rochefort, an agent of Cardinal Richelieu, and once in Paris comes into conflict with three musketeers, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, each of whom challenges him to a duel for some accidental insult or embarrassment. As the first of these duels is about to begin, Jussac arrives with five additional swordsmen of Cardinal Richelieu's guards. D'Artagnan sides with the musketeers in the ensuing street fight and becomes their ally in opposition to the Cardinal, who wishes to increase his already considerable power over the king. D'Artagnan also begins an affair with his landlord's wife, Constance Bonacieux, who is the Queen's dressmaker.

Première époque — Les Ferrets de la reine Au XVII siècle, le jeune D’Artagnan quitte sa Gascogne natale pour Paris où il va postuler auprès du capitaine des mousquetaires, M. de Tréville, une connaissance de son père. Sur son chemin, il a une altercation avec un mystérieux individu qu’il a aperçu s’entretenant avec une non moins mystérieuse jeune dame blonde et on lui dérobe la lettre de recommandation destinée à M. de Tréville. Engageant Planchet comme valet pour continuer sa route, d'Artagnan arrive à Paris, vend son cheval boiteux et se rend à la caserne des mousquetaires. Pendant l'entretien avec le capitaine, il reconnaît son agresseur et le poursuit pour se venger. Mais dans sa course, il s'achoppe successivement à trois mousquetaires, Athos, Porthos et Aramis. Comme l’exige la coutume des mousquetaires, bien que les duels soient interdits par le cardinal de Richelieu, ceux-ci le défient pour réparation. Il accepte avec grâce, devant se battre à midi, une heure et deux heures avec chacun d'entre eux au Pré-aux-Clercs, derrière le jardin du Luxembourg. Sur les lieux de leurs affrontements, les quatre hommes sont surpris par les gardes du cardinal et pactisent alors pour les combattre. Vainqueurs, les trois mousquetaires et d’Artagnan deviennent amis, s’étant reconnus comme de fidèles sujets de leur roi Louis XIII. Ils vont, dès lors, être les défenseurs acharnés du couple royal et, de ce fait, devenir les ennemis jurés du cardinal et de ses nombreux sbires, dont le comte de Rochefort, le capitaine des gardes du cardinal, et la très dangereuse autant que belle espionne Milady de Winter…

M. de Tréville mécontent que ses mousquetaires Athos, Porthos et Aramis se soient encore battu avec les hommes du cardinal, les convoque pour les sermonner. Le jeune D’Artagnan profite de la situation pour demander d’être sous les ordres de M. de Tréville mais il lui annonce qu'on lui a dérobé sa lettre de recommandation. En effet, montant un cheval jaune ou bouton d'or, il a provoqué le comte de Rochefort en duel à Meung, qui a préféré lui donner le bâton par ses valets. Pressé, le comte s’entretenait avec Milady de Winter. Sortant de son entrevue avec M. de Tréville, D’Artagnan bouscule et se chamaille avec chacun des trois mousquetaires, ce qui lui vaut un duel avec chacun d'eux au Luxembourg. Sur le lieu de leur affrontement, les quatre hommes sont surpris par les gardes du cardinal et pactisent alors pour les combattre sous le cri de « Tous pour un, un pour tous ». Les gardes sont accompagnés de Lord de Winter, le beau-frère de Milady, qui combat à leur côté contre D’Artagnan. Mais finalement, les deux hommes fraternisent et le Lord invite le Gascon chez sa sœur qui tombe sous son charme.
