How did Henry know becket?
Thomas Becket came to the notice of the king when he worked as clerk and accountant to Archbishop Theobald of Canterbury. Becket showed such great promise and worked so diligently that Henry made him Chancellor of England with responsibility for supervising the king's Chancery (writing office) as well as a role in the royal administration.
Did King Henry II want Thomas Becket to die?
Probably not. Henry II clearly regretted the death of Becket. He was very angry at Becket at the time of Becket's death, but he was also very ill, and we have no precise record of what he said about Becket at the time.

Because he supported Reginald de Broc and the king in the quarrel with Becket. The feud was not Henry II vs the Church, it was Henry II and various members of the church, including the Archbishop of York and the Bishops of London and Salisbury vs Becket.
