When Montezuma II died, the Aztec people were enraged at the actions of the Spanish. This led to them rising up against the Spanish presence in Tenochtitlán and forcing them out. They did not accept Cortés as their new emperor, nor did they ask Velázquez to help with Cortés, and there is no record of large - scale religious ceremonies specifically to honor Montezuma II at his death as the main reaction.
