唐同光中，莊宗命魏王繼岌帥師伐蜀，時景思以所部戍於固鎮，首以其城降於繼岌，乃授興州刺史，為貝州行軍司馬。 During the Tongguang era Emperor Zhuangzong ordered Prince Jiji of Wei to lead an expedition against Shu. Jinsi was then garrisoning Gu Town with his troops and was the first to surrender the place to Jiji. He was made prefect of Xing Prefecture and campaign marshal of Bo Prefecture.
