Being overthrown by their own palace guard is a risk faced by many rulers, and one way to prevent this is to hire guards from outside of their own cultures, who cannot hope to wield power themselves. Thus the Sultans of the Moors hire Christian Knights to protect them. Their prowess in battle is an added bonus.
