高祖作相，王謙舉兵於蜀，沙氐上柱國楊永安扇動利、興、武、文、沙、龍等六州以應謙，詔長儒擊破之．謙二子自京師亡歸其父，長儒並捕斬之．高祖受禪，進位上大將軍，封蘄春郡公，邑二千五百戶． While Emperor Gaozu was still regent, Wang Qian rebelled in Shu. Yang Yong'an of the Shadi Di, a pillar of state of the first rank, roused the six prefectures of Li, Xing, Wu, Wen, Sha, and Long in support of Qian, and an edict sent Changru to break them. Qian’s two sons escaped the capital to join their father; Changru seized and executed them both. When Gaozu took the throne, Changru was promoted to grand general of the first rank and enfeoffed as duke of Qichun commandery with twenty-five hundred households.
