When Imperial Concubine Y Lan went on an inspection tour, he was the one who led the imperial guards to escort her, ensuring her safety. When Imperial Concubine Y Lan stopped her boat to rest in the area of ​​today's Duoi Temple, he stationed troops to protect her on the outer perimeter in Vo Luong village. The people later built a temple to worship him where he was stationed. When he died, the royal court honored him as a tutelary god and the people in the village contributed their efforts and money to build a temple to worship him.
