A knight kept from abusing his power because he was under the lords ruling, and there would be serious consequences such as war if the knight abused his power.

The greatest thing that kept knights from abusing their power was their adherence to a code of honor. Plus, any knight that abandoned this code would be harshly looked down upon.
