Rare card · No. 53000

Qin Hui or Qin Kuai (Chinese: 秦檜; 17 January 1091 – 18 November 1155), courtesy name Huizhi (會之), was a Chinese politician of the early Southern Song dynasty, holding a position of chancellor under Emperor Gaozong. Qin Hui was a contemporary of Yue Fei, a national heroic person and general who fought for the Song against the Jin dynasty during the Jin–Song Wars, and whom he considered a political enemy. Modern Chinese historians consider Qin to be a traitor for his part in the persecution and execution of Yue. He was also nicknamed "Long-legged Qin" (Chinese: 秦長腿).
