Everyone only remember the part when he signed White Gold Concordum, whithin the Empire. Most people forget that he was the one who led the relief force that took Imperial City back from Aldmeri Dominion. Stormcloaks and I'm sure few others think that he betrayed his people. I am sure it pains him greatly to watch how worship of Talos is being outlawed by the Thalmor, but he needs to bide time. Great War ravadge Imperial Military might greatly, they need time to rebuild it, so they can strike back at Thalmor when they least expect it. Even General Talius belive that they soon go to war with Thalmor again.

Oh and are you talking about Pelagius the Mad? Wasn't he Pelagius III, who was married to an Altmer princess Katariah? He was not assassinated, he was proven incompetent to rule at the point when he began to bite people comming to White Gold Tower. He was sent to mental Asalym in Bettany I belive and his wife Katariah took over. She was preaty good Empress, but unpopular since she was a mer. Oh and some believe that Pelagius's madness was given to him by Potema the Wolf Queen, towards the end of the war of Red Dimond. Some say that right before the end of Battle of Solitude, Pelagius was visited by an old woman who gave him a neckless. That neckless happened to be cursed with madness, and an old woman happened to be Potema in another form. Although those maybe just rummors. I believe I got the right Pelagius in here and he was married to Katariah if I am not mistaken.
