but the system can`t go under energy minimization. This is my em.mdp

pbc                     = xyz           ; Periodic Boundary Conditions

I change emtol from 1000, then 500, then 100. No error generated but the
pdb output file goes wrong with the ligands. If I do the same procedure
with seperated ligand (only one [ atomtypes] in my_ligand_atomtypes.itp),
things goes well . Could you please help me where is the problem?
Many thanks in advance.

You'll have to be much more specific than "goes wrong with the ligands." What's happening? Does EM fail or is the output just somehow screwed up? The ligand files are both set up within different boxes, so perhaps the construction of your system is incorrect somehow, but again, without specifics, I'm just guessing.
