出為幷州馬步軍都部署，時潘美亦在太原，舊制，節度使領軍職者居上，瓊以美舊臣，表請居其下，從之。 He was posted as overall commander of cavalry and infantry at Bingzhou. Pan Mei was then stationed at Taiyuan as well. By established custom a military governor who held a field command outranked a mere deployment commander, but Qiong, respecting Mei as a senior officer of the founding era, petitioned to serve under him, and the request was granted.
