The legend is that the nose of Henry II's corpse bled in the presence of his son Richard, suggesting that he caused his father's death. Historically, Richard fought against his father on multiple occasions while Richard's older brother Henry (the Young King) was the nominal ruler of England (young Henry died in 1183).
Although they apparently reconciled in 1174, Henry's plan to name his (younger) son John to the throne prompted Richard to join Philip II of France against Henry in 1189, forcing Henry to name Richard his heir. Two days after Henry did so, he died, leaving Richard as king.
