未识别Json类型

Question

为什么我不能返回Json。它被加下划线并且在当前情况下不存在。

using System; 
using System.Collections.Generic; 
using System.Net; 
using System.Net.Http; 
using System.Text; 
using System.Threading.Tasks; 
using System.Web.Http; 
using System.Web.Http.Results; 
using System.Web.Mvc; 

//class and namespace detail removed to keep this post short 

    public async Task<IHttpActionResult> Post(string url, StringContent data, Dictionary<string, string> headers) 
    { 
     using (var client = new HttpClient()) 
     { 
       var response = await client.PostAsync(url, data); 
       var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); 

       //the line below is the error******** 
       return Json(new { HttpStatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK }); 
     } 
    } 

我也试过install-package System.Json，这并没有帮助。

我知道有可能是其他的东西错了，因为我在一个小时前开始，但从未工作过的代码，我不明白为什么Json无法识别

这是从类库中（如果有关系）

该方法是Web API的ApiController的辅助方法，应在ApiController派生类中调用。

public class MyApiController : System.Web.Http.ApiController { 

    public async Task<IHttpActionResult> Post(string url, StringContent data, Dictionary<string, string> headers) { 
     using (var client = new HttpClient()) { 
      var response = await client.PostAsync(url, data); 
      var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); 

      return Json(new { HttpStatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK }); 
     } 
    }  
} 

同样存在对MVC Controller派生类以及

public class MyController : Controller { 

    public async Task<ActionResult> Post(string url, StringContent data, Dictionary<string, string> headers) { 
     using (var client = new HttpClient()) { 
      var response = await client.PostAsync(url, data); 
      var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); 

      return Json(new { HttpStatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); 
     } 
    }  
}
