Abstract: Ma Yukun is not known for being open-minded, nor is one of the stubbornness. After the year of Gengzi, in the context of the imperial court repenting for what had done wrong and trying to consolidate its diplomatic relations, Ma Yukun“painfully reconciled”“did his best”and “kept cautious and decisive”when handling the Chaoyang Huazigou religious case. He well balanced the relationship between loyalty to the Emperor and caring for the people, avoided the previous short-sightedness of“although the present safety being maintained, future troubles being left”, and fulfilled the task of“reconciling the relationship between the people and the missionaries, and maintaining the local appeasement”, thus set a successful example with“more stable measures and more satisfactory effects”in the Gengzi religious case. Ma Yukun's successful experience in dealing with crisis is of useful reference to the prevention and response of various emergencies today.

Key words: Ma Yukun, Huazigou religious case, crisis response, “He Zongxun's Diary”
