乃易其綠衣，更為緋衣，謁常山李弘規，弘規進之趙王王镕，镕留為從事。 He then exchanged his green robe for a crimson one, called on Li Honggui of Changshan, and Honggui introduced him to Prince Zhao Wang Rong, who kept him as an aide.

其後張文禮弒镕自立，遣鏻聘唐莊宗於太原。 Later Zhang Wenli murdered Rong and seized power, and sent Lin as envoy to Emperor Zhuangzong of Tang at Taiyuan.
