The struggle between the literary and martial factions in Kyushu has existed for a long time, ever since the establishment of the Dongsheng Empire and the inception of the Cabinet, such contradictions had already arisen.
Nowadays, as the representative of the Wen Family, the Cabinet has indeed become the actual governing body of the Dongsheng Empire, whereas the position of Emperor Wu has been significantly weakened.
However, once outside Shengyuan Prefecture, the influence of the Cabinet diminishes, with the major clans in each state being staunch supporters of the Wu Family.
The Wu Family is only out of favor in the Imperial Court. Once outside the court, the Wu Family's influence spans almost the entire Kyushu, which is one of the reasons why the Wu Family can tolerate the Wen Family without resorting to outright conflict.
