Ye Hui could tell from her husband’s expression what he was thinking, and she laughed, saying, “That’s a book about high-altitude weather, it has nothing to do with Mount Sagarmatha.” Then she proceeded to explain what she knew.
According to her previous life’s information, experienced meteorological mountaineering teams often determine the wind force at the summit’s high altitude based on the position and height of the peak’s banner clouds. If the banner clouds drift higher, it indicates smaller high-altitude wind force; the lower they drift, the stronger the wind. If the banner clouds are level with the peak, the wind force is about nine levels. For example, before an Indian low-pressure system passes, the banner cloud’s direction moves from the southeast side of the peak to the northwest, reflecting that the high-altitude wind has shifted to the southeast, indicating an imminent low-pressure system, often accompanied by snowfall.
Because banner clouds can reflect changes in high-altitude air currents, Mount Everest’s banner clouds are known as the “world’s highest wind vane”.
Then, Ye Hui continued to share some mountaineering essentials and common knowledge.
Qin Yuhang’s eyes showed admiration: “‘s old friend left Nepal a few months ago. I don’t know if has climbed Mount Sagarmatha, but since my wife has provided so much good information, I’ll write a letter tomorrow and ask a westbound merchant to deliver it to **.”
“I hope Tian Qi Dao Chang can succeed,” Ye Hui said, silently hoping to rewrite human mountaineering history.
“My dear, you’re truly capable,” Qin Yuhang said lovingly, burying his head to kiss her lips. Just as he was about to go further, a faint roar came from outside the house – it was Ma Tilian.

The 10th brother very much wanted to know whether the Prince of Chu would succeed in his struggle for succession. He restrained his impulse to open the envelope, listened carefully to the sounds in the Jinhua Hall that had stopped at some point, raised his hand to knock on the door, and heard permission to enter. He opened the door and walked in with Old Eleven, one after the other.
