莊宗即位，拜鏻宗正卿，以李瓊為少卿。 When Zhuangzong ascended the throne he appointed Lin director of the imperial clan and Li Qiong as vice director.

獻祖、懿祖墓在趙州昭慶縣，唐國初建，鏻、瓊上言：「獻祖宣皇帝建初陵，懿祖光皇帝啟運陵，請置臺令。」 The tombs of the Exalted Ancestor and the August Ancestor lay in Zhaoping County, Zhao Prefecture; when the Tang was first established, Lin and Qiong memorialized: "The Exalted Ancestor, Emperor Xuan, lies at Jianchu Mausoleum; the August Ancestor, Emperor Guang, at Qiyun Mausoleum—we ask that platform directors be appointed."

有民詣寺自言世為丹陽竟陵臺令，厚賂宗正吏，鏻、瓊不復詳考，遂補為令。 One man presented himself at the directorate claiming his family had for generations held the post of platform director at Danyang and Jingling; he bribed the directorate clerks heavily; Lin and Qiong failed to investigate and appointed him director.
