Explanation

The second part of the sentence explains what is said in the first part. 'Peasants, bourgeoisie and artisans' all come under 'manorial' (in England) a landed estate or territorial unit, originally of the nature of a feudal lordship, consisting of a lord's demesne and of lands within which he has the right to exercise certain privileges, exact certain fees, etc. Moreover, 'discontent' is expressed in a 'demonstration' and its not an uprising, rebellion or excursion. So, option 5 is the correct answer.
