In the 17th century, in the society of Vietnam appeared two factions whose tendencies were opposite. One faction consisted of those of the feudal system: the kings, the mandarins, and the political parties Van Than and Can Vuong. They were very proud of being Confucius scholars who had studied classical Chinese philosophy. They had power in hand, and their way of life was just impractical: reciting poems, drinking tea, praising themselves at the top of the world.

Representing this faction were the triad: Minh Mang, Thieu Thi, and Tu Duc
