《新五代史·列传·唐臣传第十二》
到唐庄宗登位时，两人都应当任枢密使，而郭崇韬不希望马绍宏位居自己之上，于是任强居翰为枢密使，马绍宏为宣徽使。
及庄宗即位，二人当为枢密使，而崇韬不欲绍宏在己上，乃以张居翰为枢密使，绍宏为宣徽使。
When Emperor Zhuangzong of the Tang Dynasty ascended the throne, the two of them should have been the privy envoys, but Guo Chongtao did not want Ma Shaocong to be above him, so he appointed Qiang Juhan as the privy envoy and Ma Shaocong as the Xuanhui envoy.
