What action by a cardinal’s nephew?

What action by a cardinal’s nephew resulted in: -

[a] the disgraceful death of a senior British officer?

[b] a play in which Faithless loses Picolette?

And – most memorably because it remains in common use to this day –

[c] a sauce to rub egg on the face of England?

Just one action. But my greatest esteem for anyone who unravels all three clues.

Update:

Another clue: for the cardinal (not the nephew), an association with The Three Musketeers.
