平侯九年卒，靈侯般之孫東國攻平侯子而自立，是為悼侯。 Duke Ping died in his ninth year. Dongguo, a grandson of Duke Ling Ban, attacked Duke Ping's son and set himself up as ruler. This was Duke Dao.

隱太子友者，靈侯之太子，平侯立而殺隱太子，故平侯卒而隱太子之子東國攻平侯子而代立，是為悼侯。 The posthumously titled Crown Prince Yin You had been Duke Ling's crown prince. When Duke Ping took the throne, he killed Crown Prince Yin. Therefore, when Duke Ping died, Crown Prince Yin's son Dongguo attacked Duke Ping's son and replaced him, becoming Duke Dao.
