Protests against royal rights 

In 1358, there were protests against the royal "rights". At that time, there were 52 farm-worker families in Lesaka. In 1368, the King granted all of Lesaka and Bera's taxes to Tercellet de Anecurt for the services he had provided during the King's imprisonment in France.
