No-one, because there were no Protestant Huguenots in France before the 16th century. The first persecutions started in 1572, so the late 16th century, but after that Protestants were tolerated and even protected. The first king to overturn that policy, outlaw Protestantism and seriously persecute the Huguenots was King Louis XIV. And that happened in and after 1685 with the Edict of Fontainebleau.
Edict of Beaulieu happened in 1576.
King Louis XIV.

The Edict of Nantes may be called "an" edict of tolerance, as it promised numerous basic rights and demonstrated tolerance for French Protestants by the king, Henry IV. Signed in 1598, it should not be confused with the Edict of Versailles, signed in 1787 by Louis XVI and more commonly known as the Edict of Tolerance.
The Edict of Nantes and Edict of Tolerance are two separate edicts that basically stood for the same thing. The Edict of Nantes was enstated by King Henry IV of France in 1589 in which Protestant Calvinists in France were given the right to worship freely. It was revoked by King Louis XIV of France in 1685. This Edict stripped all religious freedom from those who were not Catholic and demanded they convert to Catholicism. In 1782, King Louis XVI revoked the Edict of Fontainbleu and reinstated the Edict of Nantes with a few changes. Basically they are both documents for religious toleration for Calvinists only, though they are two separate documents.
