The royals employed wesen as soldiers, and employed Grimms to keep the wesen in line. Nick's mother told him about that in S02.
What's not made clear is whether all the Grimms in Europe were employed by the royals, and if the seven Grimm knights were Templars, whether all the Templars were Grimms.
But it's probably reasonable to presume that the seven Grimms hiding stuff from the royals and the royals going after them for it was the end of Grimms working exclusively for royals. All the accounts in Aunt Marie's books seem to describe Grimms doing things for royal clients on a more freelance basis.
