I still think that due to the contradictory nature of the Civil War questline, they'll likely keep both Ulfric & Tullius alive with Tullius perhaps becoming a sort of Vespasian or Aurelian like figure and being aclaimed Emperor upon the outbreak of a succession struggle in Cyrodil. The future texts could always just mention that Tullius adopted a blood relative (or descendent) of the Dragonborn into his new dynastic family that also incorporated relatives from the Mede family (Theodosius's dysnasty largely became a continuation of the Valentinian Dynasty despite himself not being a part of it by blood, hence the name, Valentinian-Theodosian Dynasty).
