武成大漸，與趙郡王等同受顧命，位司空。 As Wucheng grew gravely ill, Dingyuan together with the Prince of Zhao Commandery Rui and others received the final testament; Dingyuan was made minister of works.

趙郡王之奏黜和士開，定遠與其謀，遂納士開賄賂，成趙郡之禍，其貪鄙如此。 When Prince of Zhao Commandery moved to dismiss He Shikai, Dingyuan joined the plot — then took He Shikai's bribe and brought ruin on the prince. Such was his greed.
