Guido II , called Troussel / Trousseau , ( French : Gui de Montlhéry ; † after 1110) was lord of Montlhéry and Chevreuse from the House of Montlhéry .

He was the son of Milon I of Montlhéry and the vice countess Lithuise of Troyes. His younger brother was Milon II of Montlhéry . To distinguish it from his uncle, Guido the Red , Count of Rochefort, he is also called Guido III. designated.

Guido took part in the first crusade , but where he deserted during the siege of Antioch and returned home. Abbot Suger reports that Guido was expelled from feudal society, completely dishonored. Because he was unable to take part in the 1101 crusade for health reasons , his father and uncle went with them to restore family honor; the father died thereby, whereby Guido inherited his rule.

From his marriage to Dame Mabille, Guido had a daughter named Elisabeth. Around 1104 he agreed to her marriage to the king's son Philip of Mantes, to whom he also handed over the Montlhéry Castle.
