I don't think the tenno would just slaughter the orokin like that.

I have two theories :

1- After the defeat of the sentients the orokin tried to take the warframes back from the tenno, believing that they would pose danger to the empire with their advanced strength. But the tenno didn't want to return the warframes back to the orokin, so out of greed and hunger for power they slaughtered their creators.

2-The tenno was angry with the orokin about creating the technocyte virus, so they believed they had two options : Eliminate the Infested with the permission of the orokins OR Eliminate the Orokin because they did not allow tenno fight against the infested maybe ? Maybe the orokin still thought they could shape the infested into some kind of a weaponry ?

Very little information is given on this subject but these two are the only ones that would make sense to me.
