... why? I am the Count of Cornwall and my spymaster has just informed of the plot of King William against me. He rates me on the friendly scale of 27/100, not great...but not bad, and I have been his steward for 3 years. Is it because I currently have no heirs and he would be the beneficiary if I die?

Probably. Many players would do it, so the AI has been programmed to "think" like this.

Quite possibly yes.
You better get a kid soon then.
Then you should see if the King still wants to kill you or, worst, your heir.

ok, makes sense, so I went back to a previous save to see if my wife and I were more lucky in the family planning department ( and had my chancellor boost relation to 100 with William ) and my wife had a son, 3 days later I get the same assassination plot!!! Good news I suppose is that William has now no backers, only one from my court was made to see the error of his ways! Best keep an eye out as I am getting into playing this Count, I may plot myself for the King to have a nasty accident........muhahaha!

If you have no successor, when you die, your title will be inherited by direct your liege. So yes, the King has reason to kill you if he is your direct liege.

Ok 2 years later King William still wants me dead...but gives me the title of Seneschal??? He creates the Duchy of Cornwall, and I press him for it through an event, and he says basically how wonderful I am but I must wait...getting completely confused now, methinks its time to rollback to the start 1066 (its now 1072) and have another go...bit miffed with the AI tbh
