One idea could be a post - war story where Mulan and Shang are adjusting to civilian life. They could face challenges like how to incorporate Mulan's new - found independence into a more traditional village life while also exploring their growing feelings for each other. Another plot could be a what - if scenario where Shang discovers Mulan's identity much earlier in their journey and has to decide whether to keep her secret or expose her.
The relationship can be developed by exploring their cultural differences. Mulan comes from a more rural and family - oriented background, while Shang is from a military family with a strict code of honor. By having them interact with each other's families or traditions, they can understand each other better. For instance, Mulan could introduce Shang to her family's way of farming or making traditional handicrafts. Shang could teach Mulan about the military traditions and ceremonies of his family. This exchange can deepen their bond.
Well, they could start by sharing a simple moment over a lemon. For example, Mulan offers Shang a slice of lemon when he's feeling thirsty during training. This small gesture can be the start of their connection.
One idea could be a fanfiction where Mulan and Shang have to deal with the cultural differences between their families after getting married. For example, Mulan's family has a more laid - back and nature - oriented lifestyle, while Shang's family is more strict and traditional. This could create some interesting conflicts and also opportunities for them to grow closer as they navigate these differences.
Yes, he was. In the original Mulan story, Li Shang was an important character. He was Mulan's superior in the army. He played a significant role in the story, initially not knowing that Mulan was a woman and later developing a relationship of respect and, in some versions, more than that with her.
The lyrics of Shang Wenjie's Mulan poem were as follows:
Across the mountains, Mulan joined the army
I don't know when I'll be back
Looking at my hometown in the distance, I have no heart to be sad
No thoughts, no memories
Dressed as a man for more than ten years
Brave and brave, shed tears on the battlefield
The hair on my head is yellow
Enjoying the moonlight, traveling thousands of miles to go to war
The new moon's breath spreads through the golden watchman
Cold Light Shines on Iron Cloak
This song showed Hua Mulan's bravery and determination. For the sake of her country, she resolutely disguised herself as a man and joined the army to fight bravely. Shang Wenjie's singing was full of power and coupled with the description in the lyrics, it moved everyone.
