I think that Aarmund wants the throne, and he could be a potential candidate fo rthe throne after Mede's death. He probably can't wait for the fool to die, and knows most of the provinces still loyal to the Empire despise him, causing him to think about calling upon the Dark Brotherhood. Naturally, this is implied with the amulet he gave you with to fund the assassinations, and bribe people into ignoring it.
