及罷任，孝武知其清，問還資多少？ When his term ended, Emperor Xiaowu, knowing how clean he was, asked how much he was bringing home.

帝悅其對。 The emperor was pleased with his reply.

上以琨忠實，徙爲寵子新安王東中郎長史，加輔國將軍，遷右衞將軍，度支尚書。 The emperor, finding Kun loyal and true, moved him to chief clerk on the eastern-rank staff of the favored Prince of Xin'an, with added duty as general who assists the state, then to general of the right guard and director of the revenue bureau.

出爲永嘉王左軍、始安王征虜二府長史，加輔國將軍、廣陵太守，皆孝武諸子。 He went out as chief clerk on Prince of Yongjia's left-army staff and Prince of Shi'an's campaigning staff, with added duty as general who assists the state and administrator of Guangling—both were sons of Emperor Xiaowu.
