There were three families that were founding families of the Han Kingdom.
These three families had all contributed to the founding of the Han Kingdom, supporting the first king in his conquest of the land.
As such, the status that these three families held in the Han Kingdom was almost equal to that of the royal family.
In some cases, they might even be equal to the royal family as long as the three families worked together.
This might be a good thing for a united kingdom, but over the generations…the three founding families had grown further and further apart from the royal family.
That was why they had tried to get closer to each other.
The Duanmu Family had arranged a marriage with the Bei Family, one of the other founding families because they wanted to get closer with them. They wanted to unite their two founding families to take action against the royal family.
