In the story, Mulan disguises herself as a man to take her father's place in the Army. She distinguishes herself as a soldier and is offered a government post by the emperor himself. She turns down the position to return to her family. Later, when her former comrades visit her at home, they are shocked to see her dressed as a woman.

Another myth had Mulan requested repeatedly by messengers to be a concubine for Yang, the second Sui Dynasty Emperor, after he found out his prized general was a woman. She refused and committed suicide, afterwards. The Emperor then held a funeral with honors for Hua Mulan.

The story was expanded into a novel during the late Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). On June 5, 1998, Disney released an animated movie entitled Mulan loosely based on the story.
