吳主權徐夫人,吳郡富春人也。祖父真,與權父堅相親,堅以妹妻真,生琨。琨少仕州郡,漢末擾亂,去吏,隨堅征伐有功,拜偏將軍。堅薨,隨孫策討樊能、於糜等於橫江,擊張英於當利口。而船少,欲駐軍更求。琨母時在軍中,謂琨曰:「恐州家多發水軍來逆人,則不利矣,如何可駐邪?宜伐蘆葦以為泭,佐船渡軍。」〈泭音敷。郭璞注《方言》曰:「泭,水中簰也。」〉琨具啟策,策即行之。眾悉俱濟,遂破英,擊走笮融、劉繇,事業克定。策表琨領丹楊太守,會吳景委廣陵來東,復為丹楊守。〈《江表傳》曰:初,袁術遣從弟胤為丹楊,策令琨討而代之。會景還,以景前在(仕)丹楊,寬仁得眾,吏民所思,而琨手下兵多,策嫌其太重,且方攻伐,宜得琨眾,乃復用景,召琨還吳。〉琨以督軍中郎將領兵,從破廬江太守李術,封廣德侯,遷平虜將軍。後從討黃祖,中流矢卒。
