賀齊字公苗，會稽山陰人也。〈虞预《晋书》曰：贺氏本姓庆氏。齐伯父纯，儒学有重名，汉安帝时为侍中、江夏太守，去官，与江夏黄琼、〔广汉〕杨厚俱公车徵。避安帝父孝德皇（帝）讳，改为贺氏。齐父辅，永宁长。〉少為郡吏，守剡長。縣吏斯從輕俠為奸，齊欲治之。主簿諫曰：“從，縣大族，山越所附，今日治之，明日寇至。”齊聞大怒，便立斬眾。從族黨遂相糾合，眾千餘人，舉兵攻縣。齊率吏民，開城門突擊，大破之，威震山越。後太末、豐浦民反，轉守太末長，誅惡養善，期用盡平。建安元年，孫策臨郡，察齊孝廉。時王朗奔東冶，侯官長商升為朗起兵。策遣永寧長韓晏領南部都尉，將兵討升，以齊為永寧長。晏為升所敗，齊又代晏領都尉事。升畏齊威名，遣使乞盟。齊因告喻，為陳禍福，升遂送上印綬，出捨求降。賊帥張雅、詹強等不願升降，反共殺升，雅稱無上將軍，強稱會稽太守。賊盛兵少，未足以討，齊住軍息兵。雅與女婿何雄爭勢兩乖，齊令越人因事交構。遂至疑隙，阻兵相圖。齊乃進討，一戰大破雅，強黨震懼，率眾出降。
