à brûle-pourpoint


Explanation:
(bien que la dame n'en portât point-de pourpoint)

pour en rajouter dans le choix et prodiguer une de ces explications bien senties:

"À BRÛLE-POURPOINT : Signifiant brusquement, sans prévenir ou sans préparation en parlant de la parole ou des actes. La métaphore vient de "tirer à brûle-pourpoint" qui est le synonyme imagé de "à bout portant" qui évoque une proximité telle que la poudre du coup de feu brûle l'habit de la victime. On la trouve dans un texte de 1648 de Paul Scarron (le mari de Françoise d'Aubigné qui deviendra plus tard Madame de Maintenon). Dans cette métaphore, on a tout d'abord l'idée d'efficacité - tuer ou blesser - puis de soudaineté, de surprise - il faut surprendre l'ennemi pour tirer à brûle-pourpoint."
