On 20 November he further prohibited any role in providing education across the country for Huguenots. Long term consequences St Bartholomew's day massacre and the resumption of war Disgrace of Guise The coming of peace coincided with the disgrace of the Guise family, who had led the war party since 1567.

The crown however refused. Marriage and a massacre Coligny again returned to court in August, along with much of the other Huguenot nobility who had stayed away, to commemorate the marriage
