I believe the answer is: B) Village priests led a lifestyle similar to that of the nobility

At that time, the king would directly consult to a priest whenever He want to make the decision for the people. This mean that the role of the priest at that time is similar to the role of ministers on modern day's government. This make the priests have equal standing with other nobles.

The answer to your question is letter B. The only statement about the clergy is true is that village priests led a lifestyle similar to that of the nobility. This actually gained questions from common people about their extravagant lifestyle.
