Wang's biography in the Old Book of Tang indicated that he was 13 when he inherited his father's title. However, if the 618 birth date is correct (and both the Old Book of Tang and New Book of Tang indicated that it was), Wang Jishan would be 27 at the time of Wang Jun'e's death. The New Book of Tang gave no age for Wang Jishan at the time of Wang Jun'e's death. Compare Old Book of Tang, vol. 90 "舊唐書 列傳 卷三一至四十". Archived from the original on October 11, 2007. Retrieved September 20, 2007. with New Book of Tang, vol. 116."唐書 列傳 第四一至五五". Archived from the original on February 26, 2008. Retrieved March 14, 2008.
