Does Qin Gui's kneeling statue really exist? Where is the statue?

Qin Gui's kneeling statue has always existed. In the history of China, there were hundreds of kneeling statues of Qin Gui, but with the passage of time, they disappeared in the long river of history. At present, there are at least seven pairs of couples kneeling. They are located in front of Yuefei Tomb in the middle of Xiayuewang Temple in Qixialing, West Lake, Hangzhou, Zhejiang; At the eastern end of Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, in front of the tomb of Yue Fei's mother Yao; In front of Shiquan Temple, Yuefei Temple in the southwest corner of tangyin county; In front of Yuefei Temple in the northwest corner of Zhuxian Town, southwest of Kaifeng City, Henan Province; Fuxi Mausoleum in Wu Tai; Outside Yuedun Yuefei Temple in Taizhou, Jiangsu, inside Yuefei Temple in Ezhou, and outside Nanda East Gate in Wuchang County.

Many people are curious, why Qin Gui's husband always appears in front of the world in a kneeling position, and what have they done? The Qin Gui man who is about to become prime minister. Let's start by saying that Yue Fei was killed on charges of "unwarranted". Qin Gui was an enthusiastic civil servant in the late Northern Song Dynasty. In order to oppose separatism and the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was captured to Jin with Hui Di and Emperor Qin. Qin Gui, who never wanted to go to Xu Jinguo, seemed to be a different person, and became a person who dragged out an ignoble existence. Besides him, even his wife Wang and his father-in-law have become scum of the gold rush.

Qin Gui, who lives in the State of Jin, gained the trust of Yan Yangchu through flattery and held an important position in the State of Jin. Later, he successfully returned to the Southern Song Dynasty with a large sum of money. With the help of friends such as Prime Minister Fan Zongyin and Privy Council Li Hui, he succeeded in winning the trust of Emperor Gaozong and was appointed as the Minister of Rites. Sun Jing, the boatman who came back with him, successfully became an official in the Southern Song Dynasty. Later, with the ability of flattery, he gained the further trust of Emperor Gaozong and successfully became prime minister. At this time, Qin Gui had long been the representative of the main peace faction in the Southern Song Dynasty, and had always pursued the policy of dividing fields, sealing vassals and paying tribute. They not only formed a party for self-interest and rejected dissidents, but also held a grudge against the gold diggers and prevented them from regaining lost ground.

When good news kept coming from all fronts, Qin Gui, who advocated justice and peace, was not only unhappy, but directly recalled all the victorious generals, causing the lost land recovered by Cai Zhou and Zhengzhou to fall into the hands of the Jin people again. In order to prevent Yue Fei from destroying the plan of direct peace, Yue Fei was sentenced to death and imprisoned on the charge of not saving Huaixi, which finally made the Southern Song Dynasty lose its ability to fight against the Jin Army.

When Xiaozong ascended the throne, those who resisted gold were rehabilitated. In order to express their admiration for the national hero Yue Fei and their hatred for the traitor Qin Gui, later generations cast iron statues of Qin Gui and his wife, which have been passed down to this day.
