Li Yuan killed Dou Jiande but not Wang Shichong, mainly because of their character and influence. Dou Jiande was loyal, trustworthy, generous, advocating chivalrous, and took the lead, sharing joys and sorrows with the soldiers, often helping others, and was deeply supported by the soldiers. After he established Xia Country, he was kind to the people and developed the economy for four years. He won the hearts of the people in Hebei and other places. After he was captured, the people of Hebei still supported him. Such influence was a great threat to Li Tang. Wang Shichong had a bad reputation. He was headstrong, jealous, sinister and cunning. He was jealous of the virtuous and jealous of the capable. Although he usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he had many shortcomings. Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, and other people who had once relied on him were extremely disgusted with him. His subordinates had left him before the war. When he was king in Luoyang, he was harsh on the people. The people of Luoyang were also resentful of him. His influence among the people was far less than Dou Jiande. Therefore, Li Yuan killed Dou Jiande and released Wang Shichong out of consideration for consolidating his rule and eliminating potential threats.
