D. Personification

Explanation:

In Rhetoric, personification is a figure of speech. It is a technique in which you attribute human qualities to non-living things in order to bring an artsy meaning to the sentences. In this case, the Monarchy itself could not be evil, but as figure of speech, we can actually understand how the author felt about it.
