Summary
Saying that since the king is writing to Ferdinando in support of the brother of the bishop of Béziers [François de Bonzi, brother of Clément de Bonzi] about some concerns that need to be straightened out between them, he is writing not to add anything to the king's recommendation but rather to inform the bishop's brother that his [Richelieu's] request to Ferdinando was not completely useless.
