II. Sample essay The Beauty of the Talented, Brave, and Noble Hero through an excerpt from Lục Vân Tiên saving Kiều Nguyệt Nga

Nguyễn Đình Chiểu is one of the prominent authors of medieval Vietnamese literature. He lived a noble life, full of determination and resilience, leaving behind valuable literary works. Mentioning Nguyễn Đình Chiểu, apart from his profound patriotism, readers cannot ignore 'The Tale of Lục Vân Tiên.' Reading the entire work, especially the excerpt 'Lục Vân Tiên saving Kiều Nguyệt Nga,' we clearly see the beauty of the talented, brave, and noble hero - Lục Vân Tiên.

First and foremost, the beauty of the hero Lục Vân Tiên is vividly portrayed when he fights the bandits of Phong Lai. During the battle, Lục Vân Tiên emerges as a true hero, embodying the spirit of righteousness and chivalry.

Van Tien stopped by the roadside,
Breaking a branch to make a stick, rushing into the village.
He exclaimed: 'Beware of the villainous gang,
Do not get used to harming the people.'

The action of Luc Van Tien when encountering the bandits is to 'stop by the roadside,' seemingly without any fear or hesitation when confronting the Phong Lai robbers. His swift action of using a makeshift stick as a weapon to charge into the village demonstrates not only his lack of hesitation but also his disregard for his own safety. This act of heroism stems from his integrity and compassionate nature, always ready to defend what is right and protect the weak. Furthermore, in his confrontation with the Phong Lai bandits, Luc Van Tien emerges as a powerful and courageous hero, displaying extraordinary martial arts skills.

Phong Lai's face flushed red with anger:
Who dares to swagger in here so boldly?
You cause trouble beforehand,
Spreading rumors to surround and trap me.
Van Tien charges forward with determination,
Similar to Trieu Tu Long breaking through the enemy lines.

The description of the battle between Luc Van Tien and the Phong Lai bandits by author Nguyen Dinh Chieu successfully employs the technique of contrast to highlight Luc Van Tien's beauty. The battle between Luc Van Tien and the bandits is portrayed as an uneven match, with one side being the fierce and numerous gang of robbers - 'spreading rumors to surround' - equipped with full weaponry, while the other side is Luc Van Tien, armed only with a branch from the roadside. However, in this uneven battle, Luc Van Tien's image emerges as truly beautiful, full of bravery, and he demonstrates his exceptional martial arts talent. The phrase 'charges forward with determination' is used by the author in a unique and valuable way to create Luc Van Tien's image of dominating the situation and bravely fighting amidst the crowded bandits. Along with that, the comparison of Luc Van Tien to Trieu Tu Long - a top-ranking warrior in the Three Kingdoms era with swift and powerful poetry - contributes to successfully constructing Luc Van Tien's image with an overwhelming aura, resembling a powerful hero in a dynamic and exciting battle. And then, in that uneven battle, Luc Van Tien achieved a glorious victory over the Phong Lai bandits.

Lâu La shattered from all sides
Each wielding sword and staff in desperate flight
Phong Lai unable to withstand the blow
Felled by a single strike from the Celestial's hand.

Not content with vanquishing Phong Lai's bandits, the gallant Lục Vân Tiên's valor shines through in his dialogue with Kiều Nguyệt Nga. In their conversation, Lục Vân Tiên emerges as a man of great compassion.

With the ants and bees dispersed,
He inquired: 'Who laments within this carriage?'

Having routed the robbers, Lục Vân Tiên sought to allay Kiều Nguyệt Nga's fear with reassurances of their defeat and tender inquiries to ease her perpetual anxiety. Simultaneously, in their discourse, he revealed himself as a man of honor and respect.

Holding firmly in place, avoiding departure
She as a woman's fate, I as a man's role

Lục Vân Tiên steadfastly upholds propriety and virtue, a demeanor inherent in the feudal society when he declines to let Kiều Nguyệt Nga alight from the carriage. This demonstrates his integrity and maturity. Moreover, his use of pronouns 'I' and 'she' reflects the respect he holds for Kiều Nguyệt Nga, displaying the polite and courteous attitude of a noble reader. Through his conversation with Kiều Nguyệt Nga, we also see Lục Vân Tiên as a heroic, upright individual filled with righteousness.

Vân Tiên, upon hearing, immediately chuckled:

'It's not easy to find someone to repay
Today's clarity reveals the source
Who truly counts the favor
Remember the saying, duty overrides personal valor
To embody such character is also heroic'
