Explanation:

In the first parts several phrases have been connected by commas, so another phrase can be added to it. Also, since the second part
expresses a contrast to the first, “but” is suitable for it. Hence, both I and III can join the two sentences appropriately. “So” indicates a reason, which is not the case. Option D is the correct answer.

New statement: He redressed many grievances, regulated the administration of justice, encouraged commerce, reformed the coinage, but as time went on he was compelled to demand larger subsidies and to take severer measures against heretical opinions.
