When he was named on the imperial examination list and was paraded through the streets on horseback, Adrian Tang had thought that the official he most wanted to be was an official in the Ministry of Works.
Since then, he entered the official career and worked in many positions for six years. When he was promoted to the Right Deputy Censor of the Yinyin Department, he even said to Tang Juan: "I want to be an official in the Ministry of Works the most." But Adrian Tang was just talking, he never thought that he could really go to the Ministry of Works.
Who could have thought that things are unpredictable and now he has gone to the Ministry of Industry.
He was a third-rank official at the age of 22, which was not uncommon during the reign of emperors of this dynasty. Ethan Wang was the Minister of Revenue at the age of 23, which was even more shocking than Adrian Tang.
The position of Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works is quite interesting. Adrian Tang's predecessor was none other than Su Wenyun, who had just been promoted. He became the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works at the age of 24. During Su Wenyun's tenure, he was mainly dispatched by the emperor because he also served as the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple. He did not go to the Ministry of Works very often.
