Leudesius inherited his father's properties on his death in 658. In 659, there was a dispute between the
Archdiocese of Rouen and
Abbey of Saint-Denis over his property.
When, in 673, the
Burgundians under
Leodegar defeated the mayor
Ebroin and king
Theuderic III, they exiled Ebroin to a monastery. The
Austrasian mayor
Wulfoald took over the power in Neustria, but fled back to Austrasia on the assassination of
Childeric II in 675. The Neustrians turned to Leudesius to replace him. The next year, Ebroin returned. Leudesius and Theuderic III fled with the royal treasure to
Baizieux,[1] where Ebroin overtook them and had Leudesius murdered.
