** Afterwards, when Mulan's disguise is uncovered, she tells Shang she did it to save her father's life. Shang doesn't say anything. He doesn't even look at Mulan. But his facial expression makes it clear to the audience; he would've done the very same thing.
Added DiffLines:
** Also during this moment, Shang quietly mentions "I don't understand it. My father is supposed to be here." Normally, fraternization between enlisted men and officers is frowned upon as you risk weakening the chain of command. However, this moment is telling about the relationship between Shang and Mulan at this point. He clearly trusts and feels comfortable around her enough to voice his real concern for his father's wellbeing without losing face.

** And when she is revealed as a woman, they try to go and protect her when Shang pulls out his sword to execute her for her treason. Keep in mind that earlier, they were kinda sexist with how they described their ideal women as beautiful, ogling them for their heroics and/or even how she would be as a chef in the kitchen and brushed off "Ping's" ideal woman being "a girl who's got a brain" and "always speaks her mind". But here, their character development from bullies toward her showcases that they don't even care that she is a woman. She's their friend first. Sadly Chien-Po stops them by reminding them of the law, but they tried at least.

* The whole of "Reflection" is a TearJerker as Mulan expresses her doubts and her fears of letting down her loved ones. However, the lyric "Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself, I would break my family's heart" speaks volumes of her selflessness. She wants to be herself, of course. However, she's afraid of hurting her family by not conforming to what society expects of her.

** Mulan's plan was initially that ''Shang'' would defeat Shan Yu and receive the glory due to him. She wasn't in it for any war medals or prizes; she was doing it because it was right and she believes in her Captain. Of course, things go pear-shaped because she forgot that Shan Yu is twice Shang's body weight and has more experience, but it's the intent that matters.
