That Brutus "is a honourable man".
The triumvirate members who fought against Brutus and the conspirators were Octavian and Marc Antony.
to pretend to honor them
Brutus did not plan to kill Mark Antony although he most certainly thought about it. Brutus knew Antony was loyal to Caesar and that Antony had military skills. Brutus, however, clearly underestimated the damage that Antony could cause. Brutus made a mistake and he would die for his conspiracy against Caesar.

Antony
Before Brutus agrees to Antony's request to speak at Caesar's funeral, he places the condition that Antony must not blame the conspirators for Caesar's assassination. Brutus wants to ensure that the speech does not incite the crowd against them. Additionally, he insists that Antony must speak after him, allowing Brutus to present the conspirators' rationale first.
The reason Antony does this is to make the citizens/ the poor to go and against Cassius, Brutus, and the conspirators. :D
In Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," Antony promises Brutus that he will speak at Caesar's funeral and will not blame the conspirators for Caesar's death. He assures Brutus that he will only speak good of Caesar and will respect Brutus's wishes, thereby maintaining the trust between them. However, Antony's true intention is to sway the crowd against the conspirators, ultimately turning public opinion in favor of Caesar.
He believes that the people will turn against Brutus and the other conspirators and start a riot.
In his speech against Brutus, Antony highlights the contradiction in Brutus's claim that he killed Caesar for the good of Rome, arguing instead that Brutus's actions stemmed from envy and ambition. He repeatedly refers to Brutus as an "honorable man," using irony to undermine Brutus's character and intentions. Through his emotional appeals and the presentation of Caesar's will, Antony seeks to sway public opinion against the conspirators, ultimately igniting the crowd's anger and turning them against Brutus and the other assassins.
