"Mother doesn't want you to confront Leng Yu head-on right now. After all, as you said, the Emperor's life or death is uncertain. However, I have already arranged for people in the palace. As soon as we hear the news of your father's death, we will kill Leng Yu and Leng Ming before Liu Dechang can react. Then, we will find your father's jade seal and take out the imperial edict we prepared in advance to affix it. Then the matter will be settled."
