There are many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases in history, there are also many cases of loyal subjects dying unjustly, there are people who have struggled for the country all their lives, but they have finally been victimized by adulterers, and they have been framed after death, and even the name of Qing has not been left, and Ma Yuan in the Eastern Han Dynasty is one of them, he made many meritorious contributions for the Eastern Han Dynasty, and finally even died on the battlefield, but he did not get the reward he deserved, and was falsely accused by the adulterers of having a major suspicion of corruption, and it was not until decades later that he was able to settle the injustice.
Ma Yuan was the founding hero of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and escorted the Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu all the way to the throne, which can be described as immeasurable merit, but when the Han Ming Emperor Liu Zhuang chose the "Twenty-Eight Residences", he did not include Ma Yuan, who had distinguished himself, because he believed in the false accusations of villains, and the Han Ming Emperor Liu Zhuang believed that although Ma Yuan had unworthy deeds, he had also committed irreparable mistakes, so he was not eligible to be elected as the "Twenty-Eight Lodges".
However, this was not the case, everyone said that Ma Yuan was framed by Ma Liangsong, but they did not know that the initiator of this unjust case was The Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, when Ma Yuan threw himself into Liu Xiu's account, he was a bit outspoken of him, although Liu Xiu did not deal with him at that time, but he remembered this first impression of him, so no matter how much effort Ma Yuan put into the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu could not fully trust him.
Moreover, Ma Yuan's performance in many wars was excellent, deeply loved by the soldiers in the army, some people even called Ma Yuan "long live", his status is quite a bit of a meritorious lord, so the Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu was even more jealous of his power, always trying to weaken his power, deliberately did not give him the opportunity to lead troops to go out, but rewarded him with a knighthood, wanting him to disarm and return to the field and raise him for his life.
However, Ma Yuan was a strong character, he was unwilling to disarm and return to the field, still wanted to lead the troops out on the expedition, although the Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu refused countless times on the grounds that he was old, he still did not stop fighting, and even moved out of the posture of Lian Po to ask for war, proving that he was "old and strong", so that emperor Guangwu could not refuse, Ma Yuan could not understand the meaning of the saint, so he gladly went, but did not know that the saint had already killed him.
It just so happened that Ma Yuan's expedition was due to strategic mistakes, resulting in many generals in the army suffering from plague, and even himself was sick, at this time Emperor Wu sent Liang Song, who had always hated Ma Yuan, to investigate the origin of this matter, but after Liang Song arrived at the front line, Ma Yuan was already ill and died, even so Liang Song did not easily let him go, but he was "wrapped in Ma Ge", falsely accusing Ma Yuan of serious corruption, and let the emperor convict him, so Ma Yuan was saddled for more than twenty years after his death, and was not rehabilitated until the time of Emperor Han Zhao.
