I Found a Wild Prince on the Road, and the Ancestor Dragon of Great Qin Was Overjoyed

In the twentieth year of King Zheng of Qin, assassins from the six states slaughter the palace guards and kidnap the infant prince! The First Emperor flies into a rage, leaving corpses for a thousand miles, but cannot find even a trace of his beloved son. Eight years later, Xiao Ran crawls out from a pile of corpses, starving and freezing. Just as all hope seems lost, a magnificent imperial procession arrives before him! “Who dares obstruct the royal carriage?!” “No travel papers or identification! The only thing found was... a special jade pendant!” “What?!” When Ying Zheng, the First Emperor, sees the boy's face, he realizes that this dying beggar is the son he has longed for, the prince he thought had died in infancy! Xiao Ran is stunned. “Other transmigrators become princes and imperial grandsons. I nearly starved to death by the roadside from the start? And why is this imposing ‘noble’ looking at me like I'm a priceless treasure he thought he'd lost forever?” “Child, would you be willing to stay by my side?” “Would I... get a good job and make a fortune with you?” Xiao Ran asks tentatively. The First Emperor smiles for the first time in ages, and the great general Wang Jian takes Xiao Ran on as his personal disciple! He is showered with unparalleled favor! But Xiao Ran soon realizes that things aren't so simple: The System awakens, granting perfect memory? Laws, martial arts, military strategy... he masters anything with a single glance! The First Emperor is astounded by his genius! He makes refined salt and introduces stir-frying? These “little inventions” he casually improves shake the economic lifeline of Great Qin! Hu Hai resents him, while Zhao Gao watches from the shadows! This “wild prince” who suddenly appeared has become the biggest obstacle in the eyes of certain people! The mystery of his birth grows more perilous with every step! What really happened in the assassination attempt all those years ago? What did he endure after being left to wander among the common people?! On one side, the First Emperor secretly nurtures him with every resource and gives him a father's deep love. On the other, the imperial succession is a deadly vortex... Xiao Ran scratches his head. “I just wanted enough to eat and maybe find my parents... Why does it feel like I'm about to become the crown prince?”
