隱帝嗣位，加檢校太師、兼侍中。 When Emperor Yindi succeeded, Chong was made acting Grand Preceptor and Palace Attendant.

時漢隱帝以幼年在位，政在大臣，崇亦招募亡命，繕完兵甲，為自全之計，朝廷命令，多不稟行，征斂一方，略無虛日，人甚苦之。 Emperor Yindi was young and power lay with ministers. Chong recruited fugitives, armed himself for safety, ignored many court orders, and taxed his region without respite until the people groaned.
