AHC WI Revolutionary France avoids War

Suppose the French Republic allows Louis XVI and Marie Antonette go into exile and manages some kind of concordat with he the Church.

What would be the response.

Could the terror be avoided?
 
It is easy to avoid war - just don't kill the King and Queen. The Reign of Terror happened for the same reason the King and Queen were executed: Robespierre's and Barère's genocidal commitment to executing "people's will". So, if you somehow avoid their rise to power then neither the King and Queen nor the thousand others will meet an untimely and undeserved end to their lives in the Reign of Terror and potentially the Revolutionary Wars.
 
Easiest solution to me seems to be something like what went down with the Chinese emperor IOTL. Bourbons are given a petty demense at Versailles and allowed to hold court there as "Kings-in-France" under the watchful eyes of the National Guard.
