After completing high school he joined an Austrian cavalry regiment. During the Russo-Turkish Crimean War he became an officer in the Turkish Army, converting to Islam. In 1856, after the third Peace of Paris, Werner entered politics. As a secretary with special powers he was dispatched on an extraordinary mission for the Affairs of Montenegro and Herzegovina and was later personal secretary of Grand Vizier Mehmed Emin Aali Pasha. In 1859 he undertook a special mission to Bucharest, and in 1860 to Palermo. In 1864 he was the Turkish Consul for the Banat headquartered in Timişoara. During his stay in Timişoara, he returned to the poetic literary aspirations of his early youth. Besides the poetry collections "Sounds from the East" and "Through Thuringia" he now wrote tragedies which achieved some success on the German stage, and comedies, which were far more popular. Von Werner presented his experiences and insights on the political and social conditions of the Ottoman Empire in his "Turkish Sketches". In 1867 he married Henriette Christine Ebell (1840–1887/1910). In the same year their son Franz Karl Vincenz Gaston von Werner Murad Bey was born in Temesvár.
