Born Three Hours Late, I Came into the World Holding the Imperial Seal

In the Great Qian Dynasty, the emperor decrees: Whoever gives birth to the eldest imperial grandson will be named Crown Prince!

To seize the throne, the Second Prince has his concubine drink a potent concoction, hoping to force a premature birth and get ahead of the competition.

The entire household despairs as the Crown Prince's consort tearfully shields the child in her womb.

But they don't know that the unborn Lu Changyuan has awakened the [Auspicious Sign-In System].

"Ding! Host delayed birth by one hour. Reward: Innate Sacred Body!"

"Delayed birth by two hours. Reward: Three thousand Snow Dragon Cavalry!"

"Delayed birth by three hours. Reward: Imperial Jade Seal and the protection of nine dragons!"

Three hours later, as the Second Prince's household cheers the birth of an illegitimate son, thirty thousand li of purple auspicious light pours down from the sky above the Crown Prince's residence!

When the old emperor sees the swaddled Lu Changyuan holding the Jade Seal, he drops to his knees in excitement and cries, "Heaven bless the Great Qian!"

You want to use an illegitimate son to outrank the legitimate heir? Sorry, I was born an emperor!
