IBGP cannot import prefixs with its as_path

Hi,
         I use ibgp to transport full tables in my network. iBGP delete my
ASN but I use my ASN to identify my prefixes.
        So I added this code to my ibgp import filter
if bgp_path ~ [= =] then {
#bgp_path.prepend(LOCAL_ASN);
if my_opt_prefix() then bgp_path.prepend(LOCAL_ASN);
}
It works when 2 servers connect, but when I have 3 servers, the third
server can not import my first server's prefixed with my ASN.

At the first server

bird> show route export HOME_1_ARCH
Table master6:
2a0c:e640:1017::/48  unreachable [BGP_Prefix 22:12:23.507] * (200)
2602:feda:ab9::/48   unreachable [BGP_Prefix 22:12:23.507] * (200)


At the second server

You could see the third server cannot import  2a0c:e640:1017::/48
But when I deleted this code on the second server.
if bgp_path ~ [= =] then {
#bgp_path.prepend(LOCAL_ASN);
if my_opt_prefix() then bgp_path.prepend(LOCAL_ASN);
}

it has been successful import

I know that maybe no one will use ibgp like this, but why it won't work?
