Hm... Azulon doesn't look like evil man... After Iroh desided to leave Ba Sing Se, Azulon didn't ordered him to stay, didn't changed the general with another one, didn't even changed troops. He just allowed Iroh to leave Ba Sing Se completely, with all the troops. Unsupported ambitions of Ozai (Iroh was a famed general,the Dragon of the East, while Ozai himself was just prince with no such fame) made Azulon rather angry, but I don't think he could order Ozai to kill he's firstborn (Azulon don't look SO crazy)... But he could banish him "till he become smarter". It could be VERY painfull to Osai - he'd loose all, including any chances of becoming Fire Lord. So, Ozai just could kill his own father by himself to prevent banishment and to get the throne... And to make Ursa to "confess" (Ozai looks like he could do it - unlike Azulon, he never showed big respect to such thing as "family"). Fatherkilling is one of the worst crimes ever ("No man can walk under the same sun with his father's killer"), so he needed to cover it tight. It's rather popular move in history.
