| '''Cai Wenji''' ({{zh|c=蔡文姬|p=Cài Wénjī}}; born 177), also known as '''Cai Yan''', was a [[Han Dynasty]] poet and composer. She was the daughter of [[Cai Yong]], also a musician. Her [[courtesy name]] was originally Zhaoji, but it was changed to Wenji during the [[Jin Dynasty (265-420)|Jin Dynasty]] to avoid a [[naming taboo|naming conflict]] with [[Sima Zhao]].

| Cai Wenji was born shortly before 178 in Yu Prefecture (圉縣), Chenliu Commandery (陳留), in what is now [[Qi County, Kaifeng]], [[Henan]]. Cai Wenji was married at the age of fifteen to a Wei Zhongdao (衛仲道) in 192, who died shortly after without any offspring<ref>Hans H. Frankel Cai Yan and the Poems Attributed to Her Chinese Literature: Essays, Articles, Reviews, Vol. 5, No. 1/2 (Jul., 1983), pp. 133-156</ref>. In 195, the chaos after [[Chancellor of China|Chancellor]] [[Dong Zhuo]]'s death brought [[Xiongnu]] [[nomads]] into the Chinese capital and Cai Wenji was taken as prisoner to the northerlands. During her captivity, she became the wife of the Xiongnu chieftain [[Liu Bao]] (the "[[Worthy Prince|Wise King of the Left]]") <ref>The 5th. Dimension: Doorways to the Universe by Aona (2004) p.249</ref>, and bore him two sons. It was not until twelve years later that [[Cao Cao]], the new [[Chancellor of China|Chancellor of Han]], ransomed her in the name of her father. When Cai Wenji returned to her homeland, she left her children behind at the frontier.

| She married again, this time to a government official named Dong Si (董祀). However, Dong Si committed a crime sentencable to death, and Cai Wenji went to Cao Cao to plea for her husband's acquittal. At the time, Cao Cao was having a banquet to entertain guests, who were stirred by Cai Wenji's distressed appearance and behaviour. Touched by such an emotional plea, Cao Cao pardoned Dong Si.

| ==Poetry== | | === /BASEVIDEO === |
| Cai Wenji, like her father, was an established calligrapher of her time, and her works were often praised along with her father's. Her poems were noted for their sorrowful tone, parallel to her hard life. The famous [[guqin]] piece ''[[Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute]]'' is traditionally attributed to her, although the authorship is a perennial issue for scholarly debate. The other two poems, both named "Poem of Sorrow and Anger" (悲憤詩), were known to be by her own hand.

| The stories of Cai Wenji reverberates primarily with the feeling of sorrow, and inspires later artists to keep portraying her past. Her return was the subject of the painting ''Cai Wenji Returns to Her Homeland'' (文姬歸漢圖) by [[Zhang Yu]], which is now stored in the [[Long Corridor]] in the [[Old Summer Palace]]. Modern Chinese writer [[Guo Moruo]] wrote a play on her life, and there also exists a [[Beijing opera]] rendition. Also, a crater on [[Venus]] was named Cai Wenji, after her name.

BOOT.INI is the Windows Boot Configuration file, called by NTLDR (NT Loader). It is surpassed by the Windows Boot Configuration Data Store in Windows Vista and later. The boot.ini file can be edited using MSConfig (System Configuration), which contains options such as timout, safe mode and No GUI Boot.
