What did I do?

So my friend got me into bannerlord, and I have fallen in love with the game. After about 20 hours of non stop restarts, killing my entire party, being captured, and other bullfuckery. I started looking up guides and exploits to help with the early grind.

By doing the smithing loop I generated around 500k in wealth, bought a really nice army, and some caravans and started exploring other parts of the game.

I decided I should start a family young and essentially bought Eys, the daughter of Dareth (I think I spelled that right? I'll check when I include images later), he's the Ruler of the Vlandians.

I then sat in his army for a while as a mercenary until I could become a vassal, and I now have 100 relation with him.

We are CONSTANTLY at war, with at least 2 factions. However, everytime we take a city, he and the other nobles vote to give me the city or castle. My character is 26, and level 24, with 14 fiefdoms. 8 castles, and 6 settlements.

They're all on fringe territories, and they're constantly being invaded or ransacked during war.

I never have enough influence to make someone else get it in the vote, and it's just become a fucking joke. I have territory all across the map, and have been forced to essentially min max my way to massive armies so I can conquer entire areas so they stop attacking my settlements.

But I can't😭💀

I keep losing things, or the villages get ransacked and all the money/time put into rebuilding the economy gets wasted.

I can't just ignore the territory because then they revolt and I lose standing? (I think?) With neighboring lords.

How do I make them stop giving me every fringe territory there is?

What did i do to achieve this? Is it the 100% relation with the king as his son in law?

Is there a way to make me eligible to the throne?

Could I take his sons into battle, then javelin them to the face so I'm the sole male heir?

(I will include images tomorrow, I just found out from my friend that this isn't normal)
