皞以文學在朝廷久，宰相馬胤孫、桑維翰，皆皞禮部所放進士也。 Hao had long served at court through his literary accomplishments; chief ministers Ma Yinsun and Sang Weihan were both jinshi graduates he had passed in the Ministry of Rites.

後胤孫知舉，放榜，引新進士詣皞，皞喜作詩曰：「門生門下見門生。」 Later Yinsun conducted the examinations; when the list was posted he led the new jinshi to call on Hao; Hao joyfully composed a poem: "Among my students I see my students."
