Moctezuma paid great reverence to Cortes because he initially believed Cortes might be a god or harbinger of the god Quetzalcoatl, as was prophesied. Moctezuma also sought to avoid conflict and maintain peace by showing respect to Cortes and his men, hoping to appease them and avoid confrontation.

i think it was moctezuma or hernan Cortes
When Moctezuma offered Cortes gold to get him to leave, Cortes saw an opportunity to exploit the Aztec ruler's weakness and decided to stay and conquer the Aztec Empire instead. This act of offering gold backfired as it only encouraged Cortes to further exploit Moctezuma's vulnerability and continue his campaign of conquest.
