時內無嫡嗣,外有彊敵,侯瑱、侯安都、徐度等並在軍中,朝廷宿將,唯稜在都,獨典禁兵,乃與蔡景歷等祕不發喪,奉迎世祖,事見景歷傳。 There was no direct heir in the capital and strong enemies outside. Hou Tian, Hou Andu, Xu Du, and the rest were all in the field; of the court's old generals, only Leng was in the capital, commanding the guards. He and Cai Jingli kept the death secret and brought Emperor Wen in, as told in Jingli's biography.
