Because of Qinling and Gongri Gongzan, Qi Zong Nongzan was a little more worried about Lu Dongzan, but as Lu Dongzan said, Qi Zong Nongzan was never afraid of other people from the Geer family, only Lu Dongzan.

Therefore, when Lu Dongzan stayed in the logic, even if Zan Siruo and Zan Po were sent back to the tribe by Lu Dongzan, Qi Zong Nongzan never made things difficult for them on the surface. After all, Lu Dongzan was not someone else, and he was a great minister of Tubo who had an old friend who was in the court.

But none of this is absolute. This is a subtle balance relationship. When Lu Dongzan is there and Qi Zong Nongzan is there, this balance can be maintained, but when one of the two is gone, this balance will become very fragile and will easily be overturned.

At the end of the second year of Longshuo, it was winter, and heavy rains in Lucicheng lasted for days, which eventually caused floods. Many people outside Lucicheng lost their homes and moved to the city to avoid harm.

Disasters came from heaven and it was also winter. Some people suffered, not only lost their houses, cattle and sheep, but also became weak and infected during the days of traveling. People who were infected were not allowed to treat them on the way, and gradually developed an epidemic and spread it quietly among the refugees gathered in the city.

Refugees gathered in the city, and Tubo Zanpu Qizong Nongzan soon received news. Qizong Nongzan ordered Princess Chizun to go out for a tour, representing Qizong Nongzan to inspect the people's conditions and appease the people. Qizong Nongzan's original intention was good, but he did not know that some of these refugees had been infected with the epidemic. Just when Princess Chizun came into contact with the refugees, she accidentally got infected with the plague.

When Princess Chi Zun was first infected, there was no strange phenomenon, so it did not arouse anyone's alertness. However, after a few days, Princess Chi Zun began to feel uncomfortable and fell ill that day, which was very similar to the behavior of refugees outside the Potala Palace.

Princess Chi Zun fell ill and finally attracted the attention of the Potala Palace. She began to care about Qi Zong Nongzan, who was eating and sleeping with Princess Chi Zun, but it was too late. Soon, on the second day after Princess Chi Zun got sick and stayed up, Qi Zong Nongzan suddenly became hot and could not get sick.

Zanpu fell ill, and Tubo was in an uproar. The court quickly summoned some famous doctors from Luocheng to the palace to diagnose Qi Zong Nongzan. However, this disease had just happened not long ago, and all the famous doctors in the city were helpless and could not understand the method. In addition, Tubo doctors only used earth remedies to diagnose diseases. After several treatments by many doctors, Qi Zong Nongzan not only did not improve, but instead worsened.

Qi Zong Nongzan was infected with the disease in just a few days, and soon began to show weakness in body and qi deficiency, and even often fainted. It was probably impossible for anyone with a discerning eye to see it.

He knew his body best. Qi Zong Nongzan probably couldn't stand this time. Five days after Qi Zong Nongzan got sick, while he was still awake, Qi Zong Nongzan immediately ordered Tubo to join the palace. He would just give him the position of Zanpu before he was completely exhausted and entrusted his funeral.

"Gongri Gongzan, you are the Kezeng of Tubo. I tell you that you are here in the Potala Palace. You should know what it is for." On the bed of the Potala Palace, Qi Zongnongzan leaned on his back and asked Gongri Gongzan with a breath of pride.

Gongri Gongzan was the crown prince of Tubo and the only son of Qi Zong Nongzan. Qi Zong Nongzan was reported to Gongri Gongzan when he was critically ill, so it was naturally to entrust the matter behind him. Qi Zong Nongzan naturally knew about this.

However, although Gongri Gongzan knew the meaning of Qi Zong’s sect, he did not dare to say it thoroughly. After all, even father and son have to make concessions when it comes to power.

Gongri Gongzan did not directly answer Qi Zong Nongzan's words, but said: "Zanpu is ill, and now he should take care of his illness first."

Gongri Gongzan's words not only avoided the question of Qi Zong Nongzan, but also demonstrated his filial piety. Qi Zong Nongzan was obviously also very satisfied with Gongri Gongzan's answer. This at least shows that Gongri Gongzan has learned to hide his thoughts. This is the first step to becoming a qualified king.

Qi Zong Nong praised, "I know my body best. I let you enter the palace this time just to explain some things to you in the end. Just listen carefully."

Gongrigong praised: "Please give me instructions."

Qi Zong Nongzan did not directly instruct Gongri Gongzan anything, but asked first: "I know you and Lu Dongzan have always been in conflict. If I am gone in the future, Lu Dongzan will definitely be in power. You are the Tubo Zanpu, how are you going to deal with Lu Dongzan?"

Gongri Gongzan knew that Qi Zong Nongzan was not at ease with Lu Dongzan. It was just because Lu Dongzan's power in the court, so he was not inconvenient to do anything to him for a while. Gongri Gongzan thought for a moment and replied: "Lu Dongzan is a prime minister of Tubo. He has been in power for many years and has a deep connection in the court. Such people either remain unmoved or die. They must find a good opportunity to use thunder means to eliminate Lu Dongzan to eliminate future troubles."

Qi Zong Nongzan listened to Gongri Gongzan's words, stared at Gongri Gongzan for a moment, and didn't know what was thinking in his heart. Then he shook his head and said, "No, as you said, Lu Dongzan has been the prime minister of Tubo for many years, and there are many followers in the court, all of whom are following Lu Dongzan's horse leader. If you get rid of Lu Dongzan, there will be chaos in the court."

Gongri Gongzan said puzzledly: "No matter how powerful Lu Dongzan is, he is just a minister after all. As long as I get rid of Lu Dongzan, the remaining gangsters will not be able to become a climate. Could it be that they can still be enemies with our entire Tubo?"

Qi Zong Nong praised: "They naturally cannot defeat the entire Tubo, but they can be called civil strife in Tubo. Once the civil strife in Tubo, you have not ascended the throne for a long time. How can you stabilize the court in the first place? Once the Tang army takes the opportunity to attack, how can you resist?"

Gongri Gongzan didn't expect this before, so he was asked by Qi Zong Nongzan. Gongri Gongzan asked, "What does Yizanpu mean?"

Qi Zong Nongzan replied: "Lu Dongzan is too powerful in the court, and even I can't move easily. I originally planned to spend three years slowly seizing Lu Dongzan's power, cutting off his followers, and then destroying him in one fell swoop or even eradicating him. But I don't have so much time now, and you can only do these things yourself."

Qi Zong Nongzan succeeded to the throne, but in just over ten years he went from weak to strong, and reconciled the already scattered Tubo. This generation of heroes who swept the plateau, even at the last moment of his life, still did not lose their composure and planned future state affairs for his only son.

Gongri Gongzan listened to Qi Zong Nongzan's words and replied: "Don't worry, Zanpu, I'll write down Zanpu's words."
