鄧哀王沖字倉舒。少聰察岐嶷，生五六歳，智意所及，有若成人之智。時孫權曾致巨象，太祖欲知其斤重，訪之群下，咸莫能出其理。沖曰：「置象大船之上，而刻其水痕所至，稱物以載之，則校可知矣。」太祖大悅，卽施行焉。時軍國多事，用刑嚴重。太祖馬鞍在庫，而爲鼠所齧，庫吏懼必死，議欲面縛首罪，猶懼不免。沖謂曰：「待三日中，然後自歸。」沖於是以刀穿單衣，如鼠齧者，謬爲失意，貌有愁色。太祖問之，沖對曰：「世俗以爲鼠齧衣者，其主不吉。今單衣見齧，是以憂戚。」太祖曰：「此妄言耳，無所苦也。」俄而庫吏以齧鞍聞，太祖笑曰：「兒衣在側，尙齧，況鞍縣柱乎？」一無所問。沖仁愛識達，皆此類也。凡應罪戮，而爲沖微所辨理，賴以濟宥者，前後數十。〈《魏書》曰：沖毎見當刑者，輒探睹其冤枉之情而微理之。及勤勞之吏，以過誤觸罪，常爲太祖陳説，宜寛宥之。辨察仁愛，與性倶生，容貌姿美，有殊於衆，故特見寵異。臣松之以「容貌姿美」一類之言，而分以爲三，亦敍屬之一病也。〉太祖數對群臣稱述，有欲傳後意。年十三，建安十三年疾病，太祖親爲請命。及亡，哀甚。文帝寛喩太祖，太祖曰：「此我之不幸，而汝曹之幸也。」〈孫盛曰：春秋之義，立嫡以長不以賢。沖雖存也猶不宜立，況其旣沒，而發斯言乎？詩云：「無易由言。」魏武其易之也。〉言則流涕，爲聘甄氏亡女與合葬，贈騎都尉印綬，命宛侯據子琮奉沖後。二十二年，封琮爲鄧侯。

黃初二年，追贈諡沖曰鄧哀侯，又追加號爲公。〈《魏書》載策曰：「惟黃初二年八月丙午，皇帝曰：咨爾鄧哀侯沖，昔皇天鍾美於爾躬，俾聰哲之才，成於弱年。當永享顯祚，克成厥終。如何不祿，早世夭昬！朕承天序，享有四海，幷建親親，以籓王室，惟爾不逮斯榮，且葬禮未備。追悼之懷，愴然攸傷。今遷葬於髙陵，使使持節兼謁者僕射郎中陳承，追賜號曰鄧公，祠以太牢。魂而有靈，休茲寵榮。嗚呼哀哉！」《魏略》曰：文帝常言「家兄孝廉，自其分也。若使倉舒在，我亦無天下。」〉三年，進琮爵，徙封冠軍公。四年，徙封己氏公。太和五年，加沖號曰鄧哀王。景初元年，琮坐於中尙方作禁物，削戸三百，貶爵爲都鄕侯。三年，復爲己氏公。正始七年，轉封平陽公。景初、正元、景元中，累增邑，幷前千九百戸。
