Why does Marc Antony go to war against Brutus and Cassius if Brutus has told Antony not to tell the Roman plebeians not to blame the conspirators?

Because Antony had no intention of allowing Brutus and Cassius to get away with murdering Antony's friend Caesar, or with impeding Antony's desire to become as powerful a ruler as Caesar was. He didn't give a hoot what Cassius and Brutus told him to do; he agreed with them temporarily because they were a dozen dangerous men holding bloody knives, but had every intention of breaking his word the moment he could.

Yes, but not immediately. Rome was in turmoil after Caesar murder and Antony and the Senate came to a loose compromise which rather rewarded the assassins but kept Caesar's acts in force as law.

Antony does several things to the conspirators. After they kill Caesar he shakes their blood-soaked hands as if joining them.

Then he and the conspirators go to war and makes Cassius and Brutus commit scuicide.
