Abstract: Series of Rare Printed Books of Draft Copies Recorded in Ming and Qing Dynasties Preserved by Liang Jiyong includes Ye Yingquan’s Liuru Miscellaneous Notes for Devotion to My Study, the ninth and tenth volumes of which respectively include three kinds of historical information on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, such as Sidelights of Jinling, Records of Hunan Provincial Capital Sieged by Thieves for 82 Days and Brief Talk on Jinling in the Ten Heavenly Stems of Gui and Jia, which records the process that the Taiping army attacked Changsha and captured Nanjing as well as the related historical events after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom made Tianjing (now Nanjing) as its capital. The first two kinds of information has not been quoted by scholars, but they are useful to supplement and confirm history; the latter one has stereotyped books in the version of the 32nd year during the reign of Guangxu (A.D. 1906), which is included in the third volume in Quintessence of Books. Some scholars believe that it was the abridged version of Brief Chronicles of Jinling in the Ten Heavenly Stems of Gui and Jia. Making cross-reference of the draft copies of Brief Talk on Jinling in the Ten Heavenly Stems of Gui and Jia and other information can help to revise some errors in Brief Chronicles of Jinling in the Ten Heavenly Stems of Gui and Jia in the authorized version of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Key words: the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Liuru Miscellaneous Notes, Ye Yingquan
