The General may be your father, but I am the Emperor’s Council. At one point in the movie, when Shang and Chi-Fu are arguing, Chi-Fu says, “Be careful, Captain. The reason why Chi-Fu hates Shang, is because he believes Shang was given the role of Captain due to nepotism.

When I was a child and saw the movie in theatres, I heard a lot of people asking why Mulan was bleeding after the avalanche.
