The sons of Louis XIV of France

Oh interesting would he do such a 5ing to his own son?

He's likely to be closer to said second son (think of how close he was to the duc du Maine) because his relationship with the dauphin is a reminder that the boy (Monseigneur le Dauphin) is the very embodiment of Louis XIV's death. So, he might not pull him back from the field, but he'd be very wary that the boy could turn into a second Gaston d'Orléans

Oh this is very true, I can see the kid doing well during skirmishes and such against the Dutch, and also during the league of augusburg
 
Seeing Philippe-or would he be Henri?- and the Duc du Maine doing quite well together would be interesting, perhaps he could make up for his brother's abject failure as a soldier
 
Would Louis consider one of the Orleans girls as a serious candidate for his son, if he has a daughter to marry to Carlos of Spain? And if so, would that ease tensions between him and his brother?
