I can name 3 possibilities for the next Emperor, or Empress:

1 - Alexia Vici, Vittoria's mother, also related to the Emperor (I think). She was present at the wedding.

2 - The descendants of Andorak Septim (who by rights should've taken the Ruby Throne immediately after the Oblivion Crisis) who are supposedly still ruling in Shornhelm in the Fourth Era.

3 - Amaund Motierre, he seemed confident he would become the next Emperor if the assassination was successful. But you have an option to kill him.
