The First Madam was visibly taken aback. She hadn't expected Yun Zhao to want to use Song Qinghan.
Seeing the surprise on the First Madam's face, Song Yunzhao smiled. "Song Qinghan's life must be difficult now, don't you think? Yan Liu may be dead, but that's actually worse for Qing Han than if she were alive. Xu Anxing surely despises her more than ever."
The First Madam sighed. "There was no other way. If that Yan Liu had remained in the third branch, with the wife not a proper wife, the concubine not a proper concubine, the illegitimate son not treated as such, and a husband with no backbone... Qing Han was the only outsider, and the rest of them were thick as thieves. Her life would have been forfeit sooner or later."
If one of them had to die, the Song Family certainly couldn't let it be Song Qinghan.
Therefore, Yan Liu could not be allowed to stay.
