Original paragraph 2 of 3
漢陽郡王瑰,始為郡公,進王。高祖使持幣遺突厥頡利可汗言和親事。頡利始見瑰,倨甚。瑰開說,示以厚幣,乃大喜,改容加禮,因遣使隨入獻名馬。後復聘,頡利謂其下曰:「前瑰來,悔不少屈之,當使拜我。」瑰同知之,既見頡利,即長揖。頡利怒,留不遣。瑰意象自若,不為屈。虜知不可劫,卒以禮遣。

汉阳郡王瑰,起初封为郡公,后来进封为王。高祖派他带着钱币赠送突厥颉利可汗,商谈和亲的事。颉利起初见到瑰,十分傲慢。瑰开导劝说,把丰厚的钱币给他看,颉利才非常高兴,改变了神色,加以礼待,于是派使者跟随瑰入朝进献名马。后来瑰又去聘问,颉利对他的部下说:「上次瑰来,后悔没有稍微使他屈服,本应让他向我下拜。」瑰暗中知道了这话,见到颉利时,只行了长揖礼。颉利发怒,扣留他不放回。瑰神情仪态依然如故,不肯屈服。胡虏知道不能胁迫他,最后以礼遣送他回来。
