All these problems would have been solved if we just assassinate this one guy causing all the trouble or just start a propaganda campaign blaming everything on him so if there is a peasant revolt they will B line it to cutting his head off
I completely agree with the people below me... she should kill the duke with her magic and she shouldn't be this stupid.

I never understood raising taxes on a whim like that as punishment for the public like....don't you want your land to thrive as a noble? Or is it fine for everything to burn until you realize all your luxuries are unavailable because you're people are gone or dead like???
I see the author has given up one drawing an actual dress @Bubblitea in actuality, usually the king imposes a ultimatum for how high the tax can be raised. but in the case of the opponent, they have enough power and influence through sheer wealth alone.
MC should instigate a riot, the duke really is an idiot though, more capable than his sons? I don't see it. for in a fit of rage, he imposes an impossible challenge...
