They tried to motivate the Roman mob against Julius Caesar by citing various instances when the people had been loyal and yearning for Pompey and now they should not celebrate with Caesar's victory over Pompey. They did so in order to disperse the crowd so that Julius Caesar is not motivated or become high-headed on seeing so many of his supporters.

What illegal thing will Marullus and Flavius do together?

In Act 1 Scene1 of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar we see ordinary folks decorating statues in the street in honour of Caesar's victory in the civil war. Marullus and Flavius protest, telling them that they have no business celebrating a victory in a civil war, since a Roman lost the war as much as won it. Flavius then tells Marullus that they should "disrobe the images" if they find them "deck'd with ceremonies." Marullus then asks, "May we do so? You know it is the feast of Lupercal." Flavius retorts, "It is no matter; let no images be hung with Caesar's trophies." So off they go and do it.Was what they did illegal? Marullus seems worried that it is against the laws of the Lupercalia. But it was not. The Lupercalia had nothing to do with military victories. Nor was it a proper triumph, not being a victory against the enemies of Rome. But even if it was legal to do it, it was not a wise thing to do with a dictator (both in name and action) like Caesar around. Casca reports in the next scene, "Marullus and Flavius, for pulling scarfs off Caesar's images, are put to silence."
