The DNS is an inverted tree structure, and delegations are always supposed to be "down" the tree toward the leaves. If a delegation ends up being across, then you get a horizontal referral error. Since you obfuscated your configuration nobody is going to be able to provide you with specific advice on where the problem is. If you can find the error in your authoritative data (or share which zone is giving you problems so that someone here can point it out) that should clear up your issue.
