A man can’t be married to more than 4 at any given time! He may divorce and marry again or marry after one of his wives dies.

Sir, I am confused if a muslim man can marry at the most of four wives at a time or he can marry four wives throughout his life? I searched alot at the internet but I am unable to find any clear answer. As we see, Prophet Muhammad SAW had 12 wives, King Abdulaziz of KSA had 22 wives, what is thier justication? Kindly elaborate with proofs.
