His father Louis-Adrien Prévost d ' Arlincourt was guillotined on 8 May 1794, along with Antoine Lavoisier and 26 other farmers-general.
At the beginning of the First Empire, his mother pleaded his cause before Napoleon, who decided to name him écuyer (" squire ") to Madame Mère.
At the age of 29, he married the daughter of a senator, and composed a tragedy, Charlemagne, which was declined by the Théâtre-Français.
In 1811 Napoleon appointed him as a master ( auditeur ) at the Council of State, then as an intendant in the Spanish army.
He participated in the Spanish campaign and was present at the capture of Tarragona.
