One day, his little boy went missing; he ran away out of the palace. His father was very sad and said that when his son was found he would make a statue in the position that his son was when he was found. He did this and you can see the statue of his little boy in the middle of Brussels. It was made into a fountain. From this we can see that the king loved his son but he also loved his country.
