In 1571 he became lieutenant-general of Bourgogne, succeeding his uncle-in-law Marshal Tavannes, he quickly followed this by succeeding to one of the great offices of state, that of Grand Écuyer, a charge previously held by his father-in-law the sieur de Boisy. During the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre he protected the Protestants of Dijon. In 1578 he became a conseiller d'État (councillor of state) and seneschal of Bourgogne.
