Ye Huan said, unhurriedly:
"You realized the hostility the Royal Family holds toward you. This means that sooner or later, they will strip you of your power and strike at you. So, you wanted to give them a lesson, to show them you are not to be trifled with, and thereby force them to abandon their plans to weaken you. But you didn't dare to move against the Royal Family directly, so you thought of me."
"It is widely rumored that my patron is a Royal, and quite possibly a prince with real authority. As long as you secretly subdue me and make me cause trouble, you can convene the Council of Nobles and, under the guise of holding me accountable, sanction the prince behind me. However, you were worried that if you tried to subdue me in secret, the plan would leak. That is why your group thought of Devil Island, and of the Evil King."
