This is about a legend taken from the ancient Chronicles of my country:
When Co Loa was attacked by Trieu Da, the king of a neighbouring country, Kim Qui (the Golden Turtle God) assisted him to make a magical cross-bow which created a rain of arrows upon foreign invaders. However, the arrogance of victory caused him to lose vigilance, and he allowed his daughter My Chau to marry Trieu Da’s son. His son-in-law Trong Thuy exchanged a counterfeit crossbow and brought the true one to his father Trieu Da.After that, Trieu Da attacked King An Duong Vuong’s country, and the poor King was defeated, and fled with his daughter. By arrangement with Trong Thuy, My Chau left a trail of peacock feathers for her husband to follow; allowing the enemy to follow King An Duong Vuong’s every move. When the father and daughter came to the sea, Kim Qui God appeared and revealed the trail of feathers, forcing King An Duong Vuong to kill his daughter My Chau and jump into the sea. From a deep love and compassion for My Chau, Trong Thuy then also killed himself in a well.
