How long did Cassius rule over Rome?

You should specify which Cassius you are referring to. This is a surname and there were several important people in Rome who were called Cassius. I guess you are referring to Gaius Cassius Longinus, one of the leaders of the conspiracy to assassinate Julius Caesar. He never ruled Rome. He was a senator. After the murder of Caesar he fled to the eastern part of the Roman Empire where he had the support of several provincial governors. He assembled an army and engaged Publius Cornelius Dolabella, a supporter of Caesar, at Laodicea (in Syria) and defeated him. He then moved westward and joined his fellow conspirator Brutus at Smyrna (in western turkey) to fight the forces of the Second Triumvirate (an alliance between the Caesarians Mark Antony, Octavian and Lepidus). He sacked the island of Rhodes, while Brutus sacked Lycia (in south-western Turkey). The two men then crossed into Greece where they were defeated at the Battle of Philippi. Cassius got one of his freedmen to kill him.


Why did Brutus decide to march from Sardis to Philippi?

Brutus and Cassius and Octavian and Mark Anthony were enemies. The Battle of Philippi was part of the Liberator's Civil War, which was a continuation of the conflict between Julius Caesar's populares (a progressive political faction) and the optimates (a conservative political faction) which started when Caesar fought his civil war against the forces of the senate in Julius Caesar's Civil War (49-45 BC). It was fought in Greece because Brutus and Cassius went to the east to gather political and military support. After the murder of Caesar in 44 BC, Cassius went to the eastern part of the Roman Empire and marched as far as northern Syria to gather troops from provincial governors who were sympathetic to the cause of the optimates. Brutus fled to Crete from 44 BC to 42 BC and gathered the support of the legions in Greece. The eastern part of the empire was sympathetic to these two men, while the western part of the empire was sympathetic to the Caesarians (the supporters of Caesar). In 43 BC Octavian became consul (head of the Republic) and declared the assassins of Caesar enemies of the state. This meant that they would be pursued and, if caught, executed. Cicero informed Brutus that the forces of the two main leaders of the Caesarian faction, Mark Anthony and Octavian were divided. Brutus decided to gather an army and march on Rome with 17 legions. When Octavian heard this, he made peace with Mark Anthony and joined his alliance with Lepidus (another leading Caesarian), forming the three-man alliance which has been called by historians the Second Triumvirate. This triumvirate was made supreme political power of Rome with a term of five year. The triumvirs set out to fight the assassins of Caesar and their optimate supporters. When Brutus heard about the formation of the second Triumvirate he called for the support of Cassius, who marched to Syrmia (western Turkey) and joined Brutus in Greece. Mark Antony and Octavian set off for northern Greece with 28 legions. They sent an avant-garde of two commanders with 8 legions eastward. When they saw the forces of Brutus and Cassius they took a dominant position near position near Philippi to prevent the enemy from advancing further. Outnumbered they were forced to withdraw. Octavian and Mark Anthony arrived and joined the battle

Brutus would have joined the conspiracy had he realized how Cassius manipulated him?

It depends. Possibly knowing that Cassius had faked the scrolls thrown into Brutus's window, he would have wished to dissociate himself from that kind of trickery. But Brutus considered himself to be a stoic, and would not have wanted to admit that he could be so easily influenced.
