高祖遣雁門人元普賜金券，會頡利亦召之，意猶豫。 Emperor Gaozu sent Yuan Pu of Yanmen to present a gold bond of safe conduct. At the same time Khan Jieli summoned him as well, and Yuan Junzhang wavered between the two.

君璋然之，執元普送突厥，頡利德之，遣以錦裘羊馬。 Yuan Junzhang agreed, seized Yuan Pu, and handed him over to the Turks. Jieli was pleased and sent him brocade robes, sheep, and horses in reward.
